@sisse I see what you mean. Here's an edit. Hopefully more concise and coherent. ->How do you think expectations could flop in the upcoming weeks? Possibilities include: Hawkish taperhappy ECB, No hike Dovish fed, over the top Hawkish FED, Italian ...

->How do you think expectations could flop in the upcoming weeks? Possibilities include: Hawkish ECB, Dovish no hike FED, over the top Hawkish FED, Italian referendum surprise (yes vote), and to a much lesser degree given timing: Expectations in ...

December question is answered unless wtf. But future hikes expectations will be played on fed language. Minutes, the ever changing dot plot,etc. right? So it seems to me the expectation to trade isn't necessarily how many hikes and when but rather ...

Appreciate it. Headed back to 2012. I was better looking then anyway.

url Link above from the archives of Euro thread. Reason I post this is I am trying to understand this two to three "humps" thing that pops up in Gator's posts thru the years and figured if anyone could help me out it would be (gator obviously) or ...

No I didn't' say that at all. I said Even if you had taken the position at rock bottom (meaning the recent LL) price had still only moved 20ish pips against you at the close so not that bad really. That's all. GL

Interesting. And all confirms the point that is discussed here regularly and confirmed by the recent exercises. Get direction right, the rest falls into place when risk is managed.

Dollar: Hikes. But hikes in the longer term expectations sense not simply December FED (How many, How quick) and inflation as it relates to those expectations. Euro: Expectations of end of QE. And expectations of economic strength by extension of QE ...
