          For all traders the main problem could be that we
          know this market can put in fairly big moves and
          atm that would change many counts and patterns.

          Is does add some spice to trading if you can
          keep your shirt or blouse đŸ™‚

          Never give up, never surrender.

              Here is a new story to rattle the worlds bank shares.

              The probe centres on senior traders’ communication
              of client trades through electronic chatrooms, to rig
              the $5 trn daily global currency market.

              More large fines, prison and breaking the investment
              to retail link methinks.

              Never give up, never surrender.

                Things continue to get interesting in the gold market.  This Reuters
                article may have some bigger implications soon. Seems the gold fixing might
                be “fixed” — What a surprise-

                UPDATE 2-Deutsche quits gold price-setting as regulators investigate fix

                LONDON, Jan 17 (Reuters) – Deutsche Bank will withdraw from gold and silver
                benchmark price setting, it said on Friday, as European regulators
                investigate suspected manipulation of precious metals prices by banks.

                    Imagine your trading via a bank and they are telling others
                    about your positions and stops etc. Your a sitting duck for
                    those irregular stop hitting moves.

                    I wonder if other financial players will be investigated in
                    what could be a large clear out of crooks.

                    Never give up, never surrender.

                        Lets be clear that the currency investigation revolves
                        around the 16:00 price fix used by pensions etc as a
                        way to standardise daily valuations.

                        However, I doubt the public will be interested in this
                        distinction and just see the banks as crooked, again.

                        After all if you move the exchange rate, there will be
                        winners and losers in this 24/5 market.

                        These things do have a ripple effect and so it is hard
                        to guess where this may go later this year.

                        Never give up, never surrender.

                            Then there was this. HSBC was always praised as being solid and requiring no capital injection.

                            However nothing matters as long as QE remains as it stands.

                                K, not sayin that it’s all rosy at HSBC … but at the same time I wouldn’t be followin any advice from those Forensic Asia guys. Sounds like maybe a case of disgruntled ex-employees havin a pop….they’ve certainly had a few pops at HSBC recently. Oh and their gold bull call last May was total stinky pants !

                                Also, I see at the other end of the poker table…. Goldman out with a buy on HSBC this morn !! You hv to laugh.

                                LOL… now why did I give up years ago  trading individual shares again?

                                I think the Herbalife carry on in the US is the prime example where it really doesn’t matter a monkey what a stock’s profit/loss is like. It’s just one big game of ego poker….Ackman v Icahn. Who can convince the public they hold the better hand….. and all backed by clients money..win win !

                                  You summed it up Scooby and indeed the best decision I made was trading individual shares.

                                  To be honest no idea what is true or untrue.

                                  If Governments themselves and manipulate and lie about economic numbers, then what chance do we have.

                                  At the moment this market is one day at a time with QE pump.

                                  Plan your trade, trade your plan!
