I hope so. Are these bond auctions weekly or monthly? I have pending buys above the last highs just in case it breaks out at any time. Trying to stay away from DD but also looking to stay with the overall move every month. The one pair that may not move much anymore is the aud/jpy because of aud weakness. They may battle back and forth over who is the weakest in Asia with NZD following slowly behind them. GBP and USD strength may continue through out the summer as both economies seem to be recovering better than expected. They will carry the CAD along with it. So if you have 3 strengthening gbp, usd, cad, and 3 weakening aud, jpy, nzd, you have balance in the market. That leaves the euro and chf to bounce around in the middle. CHF would be increasing if it wasnt for so much interference from the SNB and the Euro will stabilize as long as no big news stories break. That is what I am seeing for the summer right now.

Most of the JPY have retreated to the WP or are holding their current positions near the WMR so a push off from those points would not be a surprise.

I'm out of town at a training/consulting gig all week so I can't watch my charts very closely. With all this conservative talk I considered just closing my basket (that I've been building for several weeks), take the money and run.

Then I dug out the trust old Basket Equity indicator. (BELive, actually, since BE is hanging for some reason)

I could certainly do better if I managed each of the 15 open pairs in this basket, but I just don't have the bandwidth. So I check each chart a few times a day, and let them all run as long as there doesn't seem to be signs of major pullbacks that hit my trailing stops.

I don't see any signs of weakness in my basket overall. Guess I'll let it keep running...

just thought to throw this out there.
if you're reallly bored like me and always itching for a trade.
you can set the CSS threshold to 10.0
yes 10.
it makes more gold appear.
but...as of now i've yet to enter a trade either.
but just eyeballing last week. it would mentally prepare me for the moves much earlier on the yen pairs.

i have my own set of triggers so...just saying that this might not work too well based on 10.4 rules.
because a 1 week backtest is no indicative of future 52 week performance.

of course this also may most likely defeat the reason Bob put in the CSS(i.e to wait for trades and avoid draw down).

Bob,

RE; AUD, here is a WSJ Page 1 story:

Investors turn to unlikely pair (sell AUD, buy peso.)

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 ... lenews_wsj

Now what does this mean for main AUD or NZD pairs? (Peso is pretty volatile.)

Athar.

China's bond markets are becoming a bit shaky but i dont know all the ramifications of this story. So Bond guys who understand this stuff please comment. If China's bond markets do freeze up expect the AUD to drop like a rock.

0230 GMT [Dow Jones] China government bonds fall early Monday amid a lack of active trading due to concerns that liquidity may tighten. Early bond activity is slow and trading orders are deadlocked, traders say. Only the six-year government bond is seeing yields increase slightly. Earlier, China's central bank gauged demand for Central Bank bills for this week, indicating that it may drain liquidity from the market later in the week. The yield on the one-year bond rises one basis point to 2.82% while the yield on the seven-year bond rises one basis point to 3.33%. (chao.deng@dowjones.com)

if i use this new tpl the bars on CSS are very different from your original tpl
very different
now i can see the sl/tp lines ok, but the problem remains on CSS display
if you switch from this tpl to your old tpl, does your CSS display exactly the same ?
mine doesnt
strange

Go to properties and change 'dimgray' in stop level and volume colors by lime and red or whatever you like.
i know how do do that of course
that's not my problem
read again my post, it's about having issue with the CSS display once i save my new template, even if i modify my template on a off chart

anybody see what i'm trying to do ?
Here try this template. It is the one I plan on using with the update I am writing now. Let me know if this solves the problem or you still have issues. Gotta go testing starts at school in 40 minutes and have to set up.

The only difference between the two is efficiency. I have no idea what you are talking about. The indies load up and it takes a bit for them to upload data and be current. I dont understand what you mean, of course they will look different because the templates update with price action. The math formula is the same????? The only other issue is broker candle time start and end. That would make them slightly different but not that much.
here you go
see what a difference on CSS ?
