SoC #27
September 22nd, 2009
- its strange to wish for somethings and have them appear so regularly sometimes
- it makes you think that you should have been more ambitious
- I envisioned scrap wood and acrylic pieces and they appeared on my walks
- that weekly metrocard that appeared when my legs got tired
- the exact piece of plywood I’m using now as a base for a lightbox
- perhaps I should be more selective in my visions
- that white translucent # 2447 plexglass arrived a day early and I cut and assembled the
- back and sides of the lightbox – I wish I could cut a straighter line
- with the jigsaw, but given the limited woodworking projects so far
- its not that bad, or the sander straightens what the jigsaw wrought
- its fun to make something that involves LEDS, acrylic and wood working
- which really is a foundation for future projects and
- I don’t know if this something new and can’t be bought elsewhere
- or if it will in the end prove to be something that just seemed a great idea
- still as lightboxes go, this will be fairly cheap compared to pre mades
- next steps are to check spacing and quantity of flat white LEDs and to figure
- out how to assemble them – either use PCBs or just connect them
- directly to the plywood base somehow
- picked up a shop vac that will connect somehow to the lightbox for vacuuming away
- tiny glass and acrylic dust which is harmful if breathed
- which reminds me I didn’t pick up masks
- the Euro just woke up and in typical 6AM Greenwich fashion but there
- appears to be resistance around 1.4730
- which reminds me there are a few AHK projects I wanted to do on the computer
- that got hip checked out of the way by the woodworking projects
- and somehow I want to fit in some running and Yoga now
- that I rearranged and have more floor space
- but how to blend all this into a week and still get 7 hrs sleep a night?
- oh, there she blows! - Euro breaking out above resistance
- bouncing off the 10 daily SMA today
- FOMC is this week, I doubt there will be any changes for the next few months
- but the tone could send a jittery market a flutter
- falling back from 1.4745 now, but it looks like it will travel all the way up to the 4hr UBB
- that is the Upper Bollinger Band around 1.4755
- now to figure out how to fit in that running, so that the sleeping is better, so I have more energy
- so that I can focus better, and trade more actively, so that I can have more time…
- if it wasn’t so late I’d reach for the camera and snap a few shots of the unbuilt lightbox
- figure out if the minute chart is resetting to bounce up here while the stochastics is running down below 20
- but I think its enough for today.
