What a crazy night!!!
Even the live market commentary made comments such as
'Some mysterious price action here post data..It is Friday the 13th'
'Some of these moves undescribable for the short term trader'
'The superstitious trader should have known better and stayed home today on this Friday the 13th'
'Friday the 13th curse seems to be running rampant in this market.'
'We typically refer to the "brave man" as one who trades in the face of danger....Today's moves would make even the bravest of traders cower'
'EUR/CHF rise as ridiculous as any of the moves we've seen today'
'Some short term traders feel as if they've been sitting in an electric chair today...Weekend couldn't come soon enough for those folks'
Lots and lots of money to be made tonight... or lost.
It was too much for me, despite many writings on the wall, so I stayed out and watched - almost not regretting the potential money not made, definitely not regretting the nerves saved
(ps: despite the insanity and total weird responses to the PPI, Trade Balance and U of M CCI, tonight was a beautiful Fibonacci learning experience - nothing like watching it play out live to finally get it!)
