But beware to be caught in the middle of current 1.3700/1.1.3450 channel. Three days ago I idiotically bet against Euro and Pound in the middle with my micro account and with the same thoughts in my mind. At one point I was on the verge of loosing my entire fortune but last night happily closed all my 18 positions at the break-even level. While I think the price is heading towards the bottom again, traders should wait for "Non-Farm Employment Change" and "Unemployment Rate" announcements from US for confirmation before shorting anything. In my brief experience with financial markets, I've come to the conclusion that the only profitable strategy for small time crooks is "take the money and run", it's even better not to play at all while you still have some money. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
