Good morning, afternoon or evening to all, depending on where you are positioned on the Earth as it rotates in relation to the sun.

If you hadn’t already noticed, ForexLive is following along with the FX markets and is very much in holiday mode, with lighter than normal posting as we all take sort of a break. I’m now into day 2 of the break and struggling not to eat too much already. Successfully, as it happens, but all bets are off on Thursday.

If you are taking some time off from your regular routine, trading less or not at all, or perhaps a work holiday or reduced hours, what are you up to? Let us know in the comments!

Also, its that time of year where I get to watch a few movies. Last Christmas break I had ‘Tombstone’ recommended to me by John right here on ForexLive – it was great! I also caught up on ‘Looper’ … also great. So, any recommendations are welcome.

(ps. If you are not taking a break and are continuing to trade, I’ll pop up the trade ideas thread (here it is) – there is still plenty of movement and opportunity if you are so inclined).
