  1. A bit of advice please.

    I happen to think the baht will appreciate against the dollar but cant see any options or forex futures for the baht. I dont want to bet on the dollar appreciating.

    I can see you can do it by buying gold futures in Dubai and selling gold futures in Thailand - both are basically flat 4 months forward on spot but again I dont really know how practical that is.

    Maybe something like this?

  2. Drums: Buddy Rich

    Keyboards: Billy Preston

    Rhythm Guitar and vocals: Curtis Mayfield

    Lead Guitar and vocals: Jerry Garcia

    Bass Guitar: George Harrison

    Sorry, can't agree. A cool cat, Jerry was. If he was guitarist/vocalist, you'd have to call it a garage band. I've played better guitar and sang better than Jerry when I had bronchitis and bandaged fingers.

    I was thinking more of who might sound really great together. Sometimes artists that are individually masters at their craft can't always bring out the best of the others in the group. I like a good jam and I miss Jerry, but yeah there are many more skilled

  3. Without even looking at a chart it seems gold has set a real pattern since last Oct.

    Seems like we set new highs then it pulls back to 20-40 range of previous hundred

    Meaning it was 735 range last Oct

    breaks thru to 860+ pulls back to 820-840 coils

    Breaks thru to 960+ pulls back to 920-930 coils

    Breaks thru to 1060 pulls back to 1020-140 coils

    What is next? Breaks thru to? 1160? Will we see a break thru & pull back to 1120 range 3rd week of Nov?

    I would not be at all surprised given what I have seen this past year.

    Well tomorrow is the last trading day of the 3rd week of November.

    I am surprised at where we are & looks like my guess above may not? pan out.

    I really expected the markets to pull back earlier this week & take gold with it. Seems to be starting today for the stock markets but Gold is still looking quite strong even on the last couple of dollar up days.

    We will see.....

    I did also say a few months before that I would not be surprised to see gold outpace all currencies in Nov.... So I guess this should not be a shock to me that gold is reacting even stronger than I thought.

    Let's see what happens:

  4. Hi

    Here you go, they have black as well, Villa Market

    Forgot: 95B

    A friend brought me some of that from England. It's absolutely horrible. I think the OP wants Red Vines, which isn't technically licorice, but kinda tasty. One used to be able to get the red licorice whips in US, but haven't seen those in a while.

  5. The $USD can't move up throught its 50 sma because it' has got too much downslope on it. Starting today and for the next few days hereafter the severest drop in the $USD from 45-50 days ago will come off the ma and it will begin to flatten. That is a precondition of it moving up. Needless to say the buck has to generally stay in this area while this takes place. All FWIW and OCICBW blah blah.

  6. Met Pojaman and 2 of Thaksin's sisters (not the semi pretty one). 2 former prime Ministers (both dirty). Spent a day with Bangkok Bank Chairman of the Board. He too was creepy.

    On the brighter side. 3 Carabao members including Ad, music and film star Film, and Paula Taylor.

    Oh, and 2 of the Princesses and some regional Chaos.

  7. My girlfriend (about to become wife) also has a big problem with red wine, she becomes extremely violent.

    Bit of a problem with whiskey as well, but not in the same league as red wine.

    I cured the problem easily, once I realised that it was the wine.

    I only pay for beer now, if she wants anything stronger she has to pay for it herself.

    No way her hand ever goes in her own pocket, so she only drinks beer now.

    Oh, that's a keeper.

  8. "Let me tell you something"

    yeah I know you been telling me for months :) "

    I think this is the sum total of what I've suggested to you here.

    1) averaging down is stupid and if one continues the practice it eventually leads to financial ruin.

    2) One shouldn't pay much attention to the Dow Jones Industrial Index as it's not very meaningful.

    3) Institutions are always in with varying degrees of leverage. Institutional selling is a better indicator than institutional buying.

  9. Well, all you sons of Livermore; tomorrow 11/17/09 at $SPX 1121.44 marks the 50% retrace of Time and Price of the 10/11/07-3/6/09 decline. That's all the headwinds I have in this area. More at 1150-1160 and a lead cloud near 1200.

    We really need some consolidation for a week or so , next 3 days will be interesting. Took some more profits but now in Que other stock anticipating a descent drop tonight.

    Just my opinion, but there's no time for much consolidation in this market. It's got to get some air under it before conditions change. Best case IMO is 1190-1210 in 4 weeks time. Other scenarios are less rosy. OCICBW blah blah.

    Futures just gobbled up again. The big danger (not for me :D ) as I mentioned the instos cant avoid staying out the higher we go. but still would like a week or so of consolidation to indicate which way next. Im still in with 80% of life savings crazy yeah but was crazier last year :)

    Is that the news that's being spun? The "instos" have to buy? Let me tell you something. Most institutional investors are always in, but sometimes they have to sell. Particularly if they've been using too much leverage. Margin levels are high now (great indicator BTW), but not record breaking.

  11. Incidentally my concern is not with rights/wrongs of the programme or any attack on it, but solely the financial implications.

    i have to agree with you that any attack on Iran would be a catastrophy for global markets and economies especially in the situation we happen to be now. but that is exactly the reason why i consider it highly unlikely no matter how certain parties are itching and poking that "something should be done, if need be by using bunker busters tipped with tactical nuclear warheads".

    The Israeli's being such gentlemen, I am sure they would give not less than 30 days notice of any intention to attack :)

    the Israelis would love to... but this is not june 1981 when the single target Osiraq was hit by israeli pilots speaking native arabic and coached to use iraqi slang instead of their falastini arabic. there are more than a dozen underground targets to hit in Iran, all double and triple the distance of Osiraq. bullshitting by speaking farsi won't work this time and the russian SAMs would get the majority of attack aircrafts which also have to be refuelled at a much lower speed than the one achieved with afterburners. only a concerted action with the help and the approval of the "Black House" :D in Washington might lead to some success and only if turkish air space can be used. but i strongly doubt that the puppet masters of Wall Street, who draw the strings of O'Bama will approve. at present they have too much to lose.

    What he said.

  12. A nice niche to be in, would you say? :D

    What's that? Boy whores?

    Do you harbor this hostility towards all whores, or just boy whores? :)

    I don't harbor hostility towards whores of any gender, as I'm aware it's largely a byproduct of poverty. Those that cash in on that situation, yes, I feel a little hostility towards them.

    Anyhow, I've promised a mod that I'll give it a rest. Carry on.
