here's some paint drying ..........

bos, i really hope that's not your place ;-)

bakko, are you criticising my diy? ;)

anyway, how are you liking fatherhood? everything going ok?

bosley...is that your living room...

the Mrs will be pleased...

Still if the phone works...

-----------------------------------
Cable 1.9000 will it be umpteenth times a charm

I'm -1 on the day. Now flat. Can you believe it :-0

Having said that I haven't been able to watch as work was so busy.

Bosley, wish my DIY was as good as that.

I'm so bored I was viewing Bosley's paint job as a 'Mountain'
stock chart.

What I'm seeing is a 'V' shaped reversal, with 'Blue Sky' potential. ;-)

As you can guess, BT has still not connected Broadband to Miss M's
new flat, so no need to do the business for her as yet.
To be honest, there's nothing new really worth charting/commenting on at
the moment.

The only thing that's really changed, is that UKX swingers will be looking for Shorts
since it broke the 6167 low of November 14th, but wondering if that's a good
idea when in the strongest part of the trading year and with everything else
making new highs.
Ho-hum.

As I see it, the market has already priced in single no-vote tomorrow from Blanchflower who is a reknowned ultra-dove.

The chances of a 9-0 have got to be zero. 8-1 is already in the price, so how much further is there? 7-2 or worse and cable's got to tank.

M&A flows have got to be cobblers. Who cares about the Brazilians and Corus and NTL and ITV looks like history.

It's just Warsh at the moment who's the fly in the ointment.

Well I've gone long this morning - even though I'm away for the day.

The factors influencing me are:
I always do better when I don't look at the screen but set a wide stop.
Cable's looking strong.
It's my birthday.

I hope the MPC committee took this all into account when they decided to release the minutes today:-)

Spot the difference.



Happy Birthday Seymour. Let's hope that the chap in the second picture doesn't spoil your day.

Closed my Long cable ahead of the MPC...
bird in the hand and all that +150

Taken my profit, didn't expect a profit so soon so flat now. Off out.

what were the MPC results?
I see we have come off a bit

It's gone back where it was before 9.30 now

Where's MM?

I've just had a dump alert. There's snow in Meribel.

:o)


Subject: Snow!!!

20 cm at 0 metres Maximum temperature:
1 C at 1450 metres
Depth of last snowfall:

Report

Hurrah, its here! The first big snowfall of the season arrived last night, and the resort is white and gorgeous again. More snow is forecast this week,

so things should keep on getting better and better.

As the lifts are not yet open I cant give you an exact figure for how much has fallen at higher altitudes, but here in Mibel we have a good 15 20 cm of powder (see our useful Labrador snow gauge for an idea of depth).

Were also pretty excited about our new Video Snow Report service which will

be starting in Mibel very shortly. If you enjoy this snow report, and like

to know just what is happening on the pistes of the Three Valleys, then why not sign up for this new service? There is a link from our home page to a sample report for you to view.

Apologies to those of you who have been trying to access the weather station

data we promise to get it up and running as soon as the Tougnete lift opens to give us access to the site.

You rang, Madame?

Indeed I did, mon petit f. Did you get my email?

Just been reading Tom H.'s website. Apparently he's been getting
hate mail from Traders, (I use that term loosely), who, unable
to think for themselves, have been blindly following his views, (views are
all they are), and losing loads of money with duff entry points and no
strategy for an exit using proper money management to protect their
trading capital.

If that's all they're going to do, then why don't they just give their
money to someone and ask them to trade it? It's not as if there's a
shortage of folk, wanting to milk the herd, offering such services, is there?

I don't blame Tom in the slightest, all he does is offer views to bring
his employer's and his own services further into the spotlight, (as well
as offering some useful trading strategy advice). I do blame folk who
can't take responsibility for their own actions, nobody put a gun at their
heads and told them to pull the trigger.

Anyway, I've been seeing snippets on TV on someone advising the IMF
to sell Gold reserves to finance their commitments.
Anyone know the jackanory on this? If true, it would put a big chunk of
supply on the market which would tend to give a negative bias to Gold.

I must stress that I've just seen a few snippets, so don't take this as gospel
and trade on it.

Looking for that 91 and 29 on Euro again.
Thin US Tanksgiving markets liable to give exaggerated moves???

Got It.

Link to IMF and Gold

Nov. 22 (Bloomberg) -- The International Monetary Fund, the world's third-largest
owner of gold, should sell some of its hoard to cover projected operating losses,
say a growing number of the fund's executive directors.


The Washington-based lender predicts it will lose $87.5 million next year and $280
million in 2009. Some directors say the fund should sell a portion of its 103 million
ounces of gold, valued at $64.7 billion, and invest the proceeds in interest-bearing
assets.
