I know this sounds silly, but last week, the "last" button to navigate to the last post / page of this thread has been missing. And so everytime I wish to go to the last page or post of a thread, it takes extra steps for me because there is no button to click "last".

Anyone knows if its some sort of setting to enable?

There is a slope of last hope from a fork that somehow worked long ago.
If that is breached, than down we go, i guess.

Look on the left hand side of the screen and you will see a heading that says 'GO TO' then the "Last Page" button is right there.

Went long previously (refer to long lower shadow last Friday) but closed position with modest profit. Didnt expect to have the spike upwards.

I guess money just has to go somewhere. With the Europeans summit in sight and some troubles, people skeptical and noticing USD is overbought recently, perhaps they put $ in the PM.


Not sure if anyone agrees with my chart, but it makes sense to me.
As per last weeks post that it was approaching the mid line (refer to sketch). It has reached the mid line. Will it go over the mid line, or bounce back down?

Hmm, waiting for FOMC then. It could be the next push down or up.

I once advised a fellow via pm to wait for usd n eur to be weak at the same time and long xag or xau... If u had done it, nice profit for u now.

id like to know what your way of gauging BOTH weakness on eur and usd is at the same time.

Whatfx, easily done, just take a look at each individual index. Sigtrader has them on their demo platform.
Cheers.

The longer it tight range, the severe the Breakout will be..
Just to be sure we are on the right side when it does..

i agree, my target for silver is 34.5. which is only a fraction of the move i expected.
i it turned downwards. than 26.5. i have one small short trade opened. in case if it goes down. i will close trade on 26.5. put everything on long. as i have a solid job to back me up. i guess i can take this risk.

Chance for GSR to turn around still remains with gold prices leading it higher yesterday, not PM price drop. Silver just has to catch up.

Silver is pushing at the upper line of the triangle that has to resolve today/tomorrow:

Just a suggestion. Change bar settings to close only.

It is a cleaner look when plotting ratio's where intraday ranges are not important - just closing levels on daily/weekly/monthly basis.

Agree Silver has been lagging lately. Probably due to it having much more of an industrial need than Gold and well industry doesn't much of a need currently.

Helpful suggestion. Thanks. Smart way to mitigate some of the noise for those who aren't trading on a shorter timeframe.
