Hi 12.
Thanks for show hand.
Sometimes, the rooms are headed by the new era boys, who may not had understudy their bosses and have different MO. If they don't have the skills, then its because they didn't do their homework,or their predecessors felt uncompelled to pass on the tech , due to personal reasons.

Welcome, do help us with some market feel if suits.

David, most times things are not the way it seems.
This is due to strategies at work.
Remember, deception is most powerful in battlefield.

Humility, observation, focus, is much more useful than over confidence.

Remember this

Overconfidence is a weakness.

maheswara,
would you stay in a house built on one stilt?
If it was all on one system, something crashes, and you will be paralysed.

Moreover having more systems around, affords me necessary backup of everything, of course baring that all crash at the sametime.

The advantage of distribution ie diversification.

Synergy: Sharing your keyboard and mouse

I have been using this software that enable me controlling two PCs with one set of keyboard and mouse. It works very well and I don't have to add additional hardware. What's more, is the software is free, and very well behave. So far I have yet to encounter any problem after months of usage.

This software can be downloaded from:
http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/...
Thanks hcong168, will check it out after markets.

So Cb on top.
Getting sneaky, or am I getting so very rusty.

Hi DutchAngel,
Except for a retreated attack seqence. I am sitting here, wondering which elephant will tumble.
Had been mostly immobilised by the shs mindset, not nimble at all. Very affected by the rigidity.

Hope you had a more productive day than me.

squared

This flip was good one.
Did 4 , level 3 attacks as still not in shape yet.
of ousrse wished it was level 5 now.
However I an happy with the profits.

regards

Proved something as well on the ECN front,
Always felt the brokrs were shading me,
so i spread arbitrage positions around 3 of them.
And as I consolidated athe attack on one broker.
and took profits spread out amongst 3, they didn't shaded me except one,
who keep quoting wide. The ones on fixed spreads got clobbered.
I forsee margining may become a problem, on my normal sizes, as I will have to fund 3 times more money. As i cannot tell which bro kers I liquidate with. And I gave away a couple of pips to square the positions out. This time is lucky that the first 2 attacks were back to back.
by the 3 attack the positions began to get messy, by the 4th,
I was chosing brok er exposed more than price for liquidation.

I am however happy with the feel that my positionswere stealth from them. This is first attempt, so it cannot be conclusive, I like the feel, so will continue the experiment.

regards

Then, when the world flip over, even if I see it clearly, I dare not flip... I had my fingers on the mouse but didn't do it. You flipped up, as nimble as cat... can't believe you are an old grandpa
Thanks,imjscn, such kind words.

By the way: With how many brokers are you dealing simultanously at the moment?
Are you trading your main account still by voice?
3 online and phone.
Online still credit risk , so no size, unless for emergency.

Problem is BIg is buying Euro wholesale indirect.
Feds' buying to bump the premiums off track.

ic, so they communicate over the LAN.

But I do not use LAN, all my comps are connected direct to Mio(isp hub), in effects my LAN resides with my isp.

So it would seem that I may have to reconfig, my network structure if I wanted to use synergy software, correct?

Otherwise, the communications can be intercepted from my existing structure?

Well received and Understood, thanks usw.

I think best to leave all the comps as individuals, rather than have them in one basket, wouldn't you agree. Moreover they are assigned specific task and do not need to communicate with each other, moreover if they needed to it can be done thru their individual ip adresses.

Thanks again, much obliged.

yeah, got household network and trading network.

they are paired 4X4, some sytems are workstations some are higher end. Still got my apple 2e, but that chaps dust trap only, just like me, retired from active service.

If I connect all to a LAN, then if LAN poops, I will have a rewiring nightmare. Its better to have dedicated systems. The Mio can WiFi, but I only allow wifi for PSPs, No notebook allowed. Sorry very mindset.
So even hackers won't know where to go. sometimes even myself.
If one out of service , I go to the other.

One phone is on direct to the phone plug. Others are plugged to curcuit to mio. If power supply poops, only the one to the phone plug works. Power supply poops. mio sleeps. Thank goodness the power supply here is very reliable. Even half hour interuption, they give 3 days advance notice.

Sorry for the late reply.

Watch out!

Ai Ya, Bad mistake.

in my opinion, the ecomomic woes stamps from managers at higher levels who do not understand their job description and tasks. A generation of managers who lack experience to tap on, but armed only by academic excellence. This caused the foundational problems, one of which you are witnessing now. Surely the advisors who crafted this does not have deep understanding of the problems and are addressing this only on the crest only.

The real horse that pushed the economy into the depression that the us is in ,was the monetary policy mismanagement, as the chairman had declared , that he over reacted to certain market rioting causing run away infaltion that burst the bubble.

But the real problem existed at a deeper and more wide spread cancer of unchecked corrupt practises on the ground.
What the administration is attempting to address is the excessive risk appetite of financial institutions, forgetting that risk is inevitable for growth and industrial dvelopment, and therefore such actions to curb participation in the speculative risk undertaking also dampens the ability of said risk to be hedged. The result of wich would be stunted growth due to risk adversity.

The real cancer of which the adminstration is missing is that, the horse that pushed the cart over the cliff, was excessive and uncollateralised lending. There are two cancers strains. One is that the financial institutions have risk model of lending. But the heavy weighted component is asset valuation, and if such was corruptly inflated, then the model would fail. So that problem was VALUATION at the core.
The other is blatant policies in "clean" uncollateralised lending. Well if you understand whatwill happen if you lend money , to people , who either have no means to repay you, or has no intension of repayment. You would already understand the corrupt action.

To introduce more laws and by-laws to curb financial risk abilities,just goes against the grains of free markets system. Bwtter to allow offenders who violate prudent banking and financial in-house best risk practises to pay the price and learn from their folly , than to impose operating boundaries,,for them, and in the process robbing them the ability to think prudently. Anyway financial institution captains have no business where they are, if they are unable to think and carry to best practises. LOSSES, is their best teacher. Moreover their in-house best practises guidelines had evolved thru out the banking history, there is heaps of experience in there. Always if you look at the problem squarely, its the people and not the practise at the core of fault.

There is no, more efficient vehicles to risk managing than free markets. Hand cuffing the swimmers that participates in the swim, only supresses their ability and in the process encourages ............. you tell me..


Just my 2 cts.

Hi MaMood,
Nope, no scouts out, but I keep getting interupted in sleep.
Made good $$ today already. Don't know why, Since returning from the "holiday". Things seem to take longer to settle to norms again.

Maybe becoming market junkie. trying to get into form.

I see what I missed in the run, Our option writers , they got a big piece of the premium pie today. Anyways their battle isn't over yet for a long shot. Any info on what tenure the 13700puts were sold for and at what premiums?
Anyone. I am lazy to check. Ah ya , I detected that nowadays I seem a litte lazy to go for things.
Tires easily, symptoms of ?

For now music meditation again, for a little time.

Thihngs to clear: last 3 times i was doing rescue so i had no idea where market was... need to see how i check my BIAS... i guess i am not Listening to charts... Today rescue were good till like last (before the last rescue my % loss was only 1.5%) 30 pips which i used for heavy rescue and damn that took me out...

Problem is...
Hi indianguyinny,
I am hearing you,it hurts.

Today isn't an easy trading day for many.
You have to have enough experience to detect the break variance. To day is one of those days where the difference between suceess and failure is a very thin line.
Like you realised you had to be listening and focus to survive. However, your MM limit discipline save your behind. Ask a novice , many accounts probably were blown to smitterines, today.
You will have nightmares of your emotional state today.
Its a good idea, to lay off for a while and let this sink in. Next time you will identify it , if it ever comes your way again. Makes for good discipline training. Now you understand, why the focus and MM discipline will be so important for your long term survival.Never be complacient in markets, and never force. You should never attack or rescue too strongly unless you have foreign cap to do so. So start small . and build again. do the ants work.

For Now go be kind to yourself, and the girls too.

regards

Good afternoon,
Haven't had my coffee yet.
saw some usd strength, and remembered this level.
seems still in play, so scout is on recee.

Should be interesting day, so be focused.
This level should be somewhere near the end of abc retrace wave, otherwise it is the spring leg of a big upwave, so be nimble as well.

otherwise bring along a lady friend, sure will bring out the gentleman in a pop.

Aaiiii, don't say like that.
Sick to have to threaten to stop them shaving pips of the arbitrages. Their hair cut for admin is already good income,. These people, really trying to squeeze blood out of stone.
Anyway the loss is their own.

No Lesson, just to check, so that they know that not all retail are sleeping.

Sorry I didnt take any position, coz I scared the battle might go into over time mode especially at this time. I am not good at pro-longed wars.
still keeping my eyes outfor the long leggy girls,but seems only watching bow legged ladies running around giving the eagles a hard time.

Running out of leg space now, may have to run away to fight another day.

Now keeping some behind enemy lines just in case , she shows.

I have lots of rations(coffee) to last this fight.
Todays, performance is mission critical for the things that may come. But the dance dictates.

regards

To be honest the coiling action is giving me the jitterbugs.
But I gotta see if the leggies will show.
Maybe , comes late, only for the patient, and willed.

As it stands , the odds are in my favour, for now.


feel like rusputin now.

kind greets
At the yields this days, swap dn't matter.
Its negative yield after the hair cuts.
deciding factor MUST be the dance.
No other way, my friend.

But of course if you were arbitraging, then cost of carry must be factored in.
Like they say, after its gone thru the banks calculus,after that ,even the grass can't grow.
regards


Hey long cool woman in black dresses , are you gonna show?
during twinlight?

No,j-pax, swap pips are the interest rates differencial you get or pay for short rate carrys depending on the yield differentials. Rates do not play a part unless you carry positions over. Carry could be for long spans if you arbitrage prices. unless you have the opportunity to unwind your hedges intraday. For spot positions the focus is on the "tom next"(tomorrow to the next day) for marking to markets. Short rates can be extremely volitile depending on the yield humps. If your MO is spot, don't worry too much about it.
To get a handle on how this works, you have to understand Money market operations.

thank you for your guidance
Yes your ability to dance determines your "face"(directional exposure risk). Sometimes you are accorded +ve carry opportunities. Then you should make haste to gain from both the position risk as well as get interest differential gain for carrying the exposures over the international dateline(GMT)
. Otherwise if the trade is negetive carry , you try manipulate the exposure to zero interest carry. But for the rates now, carry will aways be negative after bro ker hair cut.So It is unlikely to experience +ve carry, even for exotic currencies. So your "face" risk gain is of paramount importance to book health.

Ai ya , teasing moves.
Squared to fight another day.

Since I am up,will monitor todays closing performance. Like I said mission critical for the dances ahead.Sets the MO & MM bias possibilities.

Since coming out of the Xpanding wedge, had triple flagged, on short charts. Beaware, BIG opportunities awaits. With right tempo into the impulses , it can be extremely rewarding. But of course the dance still dictates.

Note that this is happening on a big picture daily shs. The flags are on your right shoulder.

Sorry to destroy your dreams.
You see at banks, there is a whole section(desk) looking out for swap(interest rates) advantage. And another larger section watching forex risk. It is not easy for a lone trader to compete, unless very experience and handling a large portfolio.
I had see "ocassionally", overnight rates of exotic currencies,as high as 300%pa, it is rare, but much opportunities of much lesser magnitude exist in markets on day to day operation. Unfortunately, access is difficult for retail players,mostly this for interbank and corp plays.

Goodnite

Hi GEfx,
You survived the minefields.
The thing is that we are at the apex of a triangle on the horly and the short chart is sitting on the triple support.
Tokyo's play seems critical. If what I am expecting comes, London may be too late to get into the flow of things. BUT thats alot of ifs.
All I can say is that Tokyo seems to have much to ponder, and I would be ibclined to believe, the paper orders, will be in the market. If you do have the energies, Tokyo may be very interesting today.

So, you wanna tell us where've uve been these past few months or do we have to force it...
,moving his bed , would be a problem jest, he has to convince his other half first that trading is a good thing. And the only way to be assured of positive results is to lavish her with his c card, Have you done so, Lusan?
Must be generous with winnings, you KNOW !
Moreover his FOCUS, may be distracted............

OK hitting the sack, BIG MONEY at London, I hope.

I guess either i limit my daily loss to 1% or increase my earnings...

Recent 5% loss will take 25 days to recover... its making me confused...

I dont want to take a decision in haste but but but.... i guess way you trade is chaos but from top chaos is of highest order of orderance...

This is just making me think thats all.......
Oh before I shut down.
indianguyinny,you are going about the MM , all wrong.

Firstly, about time constrain, sure I understand you have a job , so market access must be controlled for your health, mostly non accessed when you are focused elsewhere. On that I cannot help you. you see, you have to decide how to split the time pie, and when you have done so , you have to take whatever she gives you within that constrain.

Most importantly , about the MM. You are formulating it from ROI point of view.That's bad mindset, will creates much problems for you. I encourage you to trade from the smallest that is posible for you. And slowly climb up the size chart, only when you are consistently profitable and comfortable with exposure, as well as experience.
As your resources may be limited. You may have to undertake a little more risk of ruin, initially. As the profit in book grows consistently , this risk of ruin , will become less and less. NEVER up size without consistency in your profitabilty, you should slowly build, as she will teach you much lesson, and as your experience climbs up your learning curve, then your survival factor becomes non issue.

To rush or shortcircuit the process, is dangerous for your financial health.
Frankly , you are not in any position to think of ROI, yet, esp under your current time pie. Just be happy for every $ that you can get from her.

And regarding your 5% loss misadventure, forget about recovering the money, remember the lesson that was taught and get on with the dance. If you dance well it will all come back. I am glad you recovered 2% already but trying to rush it all back , it will only make you liable to more mistakes., could be costly.

regards

imjscn,
crosses move as a consequence of spot majors movements, not the other way round.
If crosses control the spots majors, then they would be quoted finer that the spots majors.

Hi,
who are "the Europeans" and how did they come to the realisation.
and if chet used the words resume, he means the eco will hit shit, as it had done. "RESUME"

i don't realy watch fundamentals but i like to watch the tipsters on tv sometimes.....

hope many ride the EU trend.... i did not
and here's s tip from fti, listen carefully.
If the market doesn't go up it will go down.
if the market didn't go down as well, it is likely in a congestion.

And next century will be better than the last.

if next century is not , than come tell me about it, next century.

I am just jesting.
this is known as saying a bunch of nothings.

PS: Have covered this trade for 0 profit if it does not run now.
Edit a few minutes later: out with 0. Oh well...
well mu day wasn't so productive.
Was disturbed by bias and couldn't ride the moves, just managed to catch 20-25 pockets of long the Eur.
Somehow something's affecting the mindset. couldn't see the bear as strong as she came.

sending myself for basic mindset repair.
basically was too bias bull dollars. danced with 2 left feet.

Maybe the super performance before the holiday could be a contributing factor, as well. I can feel it todays trades. couldn't ride. reverting to bias and giving good money away. After correcting stance, still couldn't ride.

So I gotta go find myself again.
I am becoming dangerous for myself, off the desk for a little.
fti is UNDER REPAIR.

PS Today after the figs, would have been a sail. But the mindset impaired performance. what a waste.

Hi GEfx,
No problem, not to worry about it.
Wished the people here spoke more.
then at least I know , where they're at on the curve.

still under repair.
will revert after satisfactorily aligned.

From my episode recently, I hope the people here can understand, how difficult things can get, if

you lose your humility and allow egor and bias works together against you.
believe that you are too smart and she will throw you a curve ball that can take you head off.

yield to exuberance and it will dull your feel sense and numb your trigger finger.

AND, it doesn't matter who you are, even if you have mastered it all, be careless and unfocused and the scorpions within you surfaces. If it happens , do not allow a loss book to alert you to it. Detect early, and you can set it right again.

Do not be surprised that , a new car or girlfriend, even small events in your life , can just throw you off the wagon. Nic was a good trader, but when he startedthrowing beer mugs at mirrors, the dye was cast.

transition from dealing was non issue, as i went up the corp ladder , I slowly moved from active market making to managerial and training of clones. The last 5 years before i retired, i enjoyed the exuberance of my ceo position at the bank's trading subsidiary. In fact my thoughts were that I would never be using my market skills again, until the retail forex surfaced. no way, would i risk , the nested eggs I had saved over the years for the family and retirement. But here we are, the retail game had given me a second wind, now I have best of both, the eggs and the game.

and you haven't understood the thread in its entirety.
I can tell, probably some here can too.

yesteday evening i had set my higher TF 5m. MT4 and trading TF 30 sec. on my broker and i clearly saw MT4 was a fraction faster.

i heard people are banned from their broker for using this advantage but i am going to check this out some more anyway.....

i trade 100$ lots so i should be under the radar....

i hope you get your "feel" back soon
yes,j=pax

arbitrage is to scalp, the price difference between the OTC accesses. Mostly they are out of line.
This is very cap intensive here, unlike in spot cash settlement unwinds it all.

And they block you due to that you do not get the swap dues because of haircut and the charge for financing.
Not profitable enough for the trouble. at least not yet.
At mom, I am still unwinding much of the arbi.

OTC spot prices are all over the place, within a tolerance band. Prices from different zones and locations, skew towards its own book and order leans. Thats why there is much arbitrage in the spot.

And there is no way, that you are trading on spot prices, you are absolutely unmarketable. Minimun ticket is 2 million USD.

What is likely is that you are trading some computers,tracking certain mmakers , with some programmed algorithms.

If I had a computer doing it, I would most certainly incorporate ,some account behavioural learning modules to track and lean the customers book as well.

You are right that I don't understand the thread in its entirety probably even lesser. I followed your postings since inception and probably seriously read through it only 1.5 times. I am not looking for a fix (I am not trade broken), the advise laid down by you shed a lot of light for me and I felt a higher level of understanding and you have put a lot of things into proper perspective for me. I have you to thank for that.

Outside this thread, I am mostly just keeping myself...
nice flag forming, don't you think?
need some flow, to complete the picture.

to eliminate the scorpion fully is impossible to me ...

ah looks like gbp is easier to go long with , so sad Im rather inexperienced with her , had only used her to hedge my euro position ...
Hey maheswara,
Thats one solution.
Becareful behind that is another scorpion, inferiority complex from discontentment, if you missed capitalising a big move. Deal with that need humility and IS.

Oh....... becareful of new girlfriends.

market's like pigs herded up and down and round and round.
we are now awaiting abattoir to open for culling of dizzy pigs.

and may the force be with you, talk about feelings..huh
You go there and this thread will be classified "loony thread"
Why do you think the markets address market makers as, "those loony bins flying by the pants on their seats"
Who let that frog out???

sure, wait till the algo learns to shade a couple of pips, by reading your blotter, then you will be trading 15 pip spreads instead of the 4 you pay now. This is the reason to have many bro kers. Arbitrage and stealth mode positions as well as contingency market access.

Don't force. If you lose focus, then it can become expensive.

the CBs have tried to do their magic,so lets see if they are real.
The show will be over soon. After that, the markets have its say.

Relax for a litle, the battle will begin in a little time soon.

Small position remains.

that should not be the question,indianguyinny.
The question is if it moves,
1. are you on the impluse or against.
3. are you prepared to react.

I sense a little frustration and anxiousness , then please square out.
you are becoming dangerous to yourself.
Are you lead dancer or is she. why must she move for you?
So you are master, so you die a thousand frustrations.

FTI how do u manage to flip at very right time....

V
"dead in water scout". now you have to decide, how you want to handle the situation. What do you see? Is rescue opportunity available. Exit plan.

Recap of thoughts.
--------------------
I went short scout 30 for second wave.
it started, but I was slow in attack and missed.
it went to 05-15 zone rebounded fast,
above the 40 i cut the scout loose and flipped for a test.
it went up to test 50/60 . I didn't feel strong impulse, so I took scout out and took a nap 1 hour =+ after Tokyo opened.

I just woke up half and hour ago.

Now the impluse leg is up, BOJ as I expected didn't show.
If anything, Tokyo session had done nothing, its the Euro/London show now.
Still looking for feel and waiting for my coffee.
Gotta take a shower now. When I get out, coffee should be ready.

OK , I m back. ohh my cup of COFFEE.

Now looking from the yen hourly charts, it is evident that some one had been buying usd/yen from since 20 hours ago.
Nothing dramatic, but nevertheless steady buying.
What do you think? It may be MaMood quitely taking her to the dance. but likely stronger hands. Ah and BOJ is too quiet, and don't give me the guilty look. Stealth mode, huh..

3 kings is all out of line. evidence that the crosses had been playing in the garden.

anyway, what works for me in containing the scorpion?

stay away from discussions when trading.

dun let the size and deficits affect you, once it starts affecting your psychological setup...run. its easier said than done, but i think everyone knows the feeling, its when they develop that weary discomfort, you know ur done for.
Since im like most, bounded by time and work commitments, its not easy for me to...

common bring it back to 50/55, you can do it.

common , hows about 45/50 then

see, wasn't so hard , right?

Oh yeah, before I go,
This I discovered about a broker.
when the market is at certain extreme levels,
this broker requotes in nano seconds, when you try to hit them they always comes back with sorry market has moved.
and the freaking market, really hasn't move an inch. Like in today.
If you experience this kind of behaviour, you know that the algo is reading your blotter, I think.
If it was fast markets , I can give them the benifit of the doubt. Today we hardly moved 40 pips range, and the broker behaves like as if I was trading figs. Sure out to scalp me, I think.
One more thing was some others were quoting close to choice prices. This chaps fixed 2 pips spreads.
AND i am closing my account with this ONE, more like a bookie house than a broker.

Goodness, my online, trading is so small, as most of them haven't passed my credit risk test yet. Although I like the way prices are being pumped auto.

Anyways 2 more international brokers just set up shop.
I think we'll not run out of brokers, Just got to find the ligit professional houses.
One tip I have for traders, if ever you close an account with any broker due to issues, NEVER EVER deal with that name again. This way in time we will know who are brokers and who are conish bucket shops.

“I did not tell Bank of America’s management that the Federal Reserve would take action against the board or management” if they decided to invoke a clause in the acquisition contract in an attempt to stop the deal.

if Bank of America had decided to abandon the deal, it “might have triggered a broader systemic crisis that could well have destabilized Bank of America as well as Merrill Lynch,”

We need the truth (about a lot of things right now). Big Ben is going to be replaced by Larry Summers so he is toast anyway. Poor guy (Summers, I mean). Anyone in a trade right now?
What trade, there's no market.
They probably are all telling good stories.

To create a fictional currency for international trade requires it to have integrity,exchangability and store of value. Find one overnight, you try.
But of course the usd's integrity has been on the table for sometime now.

UP size and flipped.

Th cable cross sweeps can go to ...h
I am staying with usd bulls.
Bad opening book this monday.

Going bull, and the cable crosses can have my durian shit.
otherwise I screwed again, I'm done for the week.

sized flipped at 00

talk about crossing roads safely.

wait for that floor on the cable to crack, then we can hang those crosses asses on the wall. Anytime soon now.

Not much on the financial calender so , watch out for the crosses boys to use the sweeps. Lets see, whose muscles bigger. Remember cable liquidity is thin, let thembuild up the position, then they pay.

I'm using a whole weeks P&L to muscle the position, so becareful of yours.

your rescue, seems too close in congested illquidity driven Euro rally.

@auxesis,
The liquidity does pan down 2 to 3 weeks ahead of july 4.
the tones are normally USD advantaged. And price spikes tend for usd tends to be sporadic, while markets try to buy cheaper usd to replenish for the big bang. But this is only general tendency. Cyclic tendencies have to relate to the pcture on the ground.

This time , the cross cables seem to be behaving abnormal.
We know that king had mentioned that the uk economies are recovering due to a cheaper stirling. But someone or something wants to test for Iron Lady presence as a resolve. Lets see, generally the CBs had been on top mostly so we are entering watched bands. The persistency of themarket to test and retest these top of bands, is inviting battle.

Personally I had been carrying the view that the cable had been untradable, but if they use the cable to disturb the GBP/Euro relationship as we had been seeing, then they had better be prepared to be taken out.

regards

maheswara, try not to follow me now, dance to your norm.

I am getting into level 5, so if I rescue , its gonna be big in ratio to my norm. The fact that I may have to invove level 6, is making me hedge accross currencies to weigh the attack heavy if I have to. This requires me to spiral within the spiral to leverage on that the attack, if it comes. The deficit of not having much foreign cap since returning from my holidays is not a plus factor. Therefore I have to impliment te level 6s very carefully. Parts of level 5 is already in positions.

regards

Level 6 can be involked only if the existing positions gets a little in the money.
Otherwise too much may be at stake.

In congestion, once realised, you must space out . outherwise you are snowballing risk in the tight band. Unless you want to commit for bet, for direction run. This can be come unhealthy to your mind stability.

Of course if you are gambler with strong stomach, but it is not encouraged.

When us equities are firming, why would you be buying currencies?
When your usds may come to good use in the near. We may just have a us equity run to the runup to july 4.

The factor of heli in trouble, may put the Feds inactive, But really do you believe that he is the Feds. There are people on the ground opreative, even without the snake's head.
