i was looking for a break this morning

FTSE seems incapable of following dow bounce

aye, ftse been relatively weak 13 out of last 14 days and is currently a huge 375 points lower than it should be if it had kept pace with dow during that time. Just to show how severe the disconnect is, ftse is only weak by 450 for this year so far

6280 horizontal support marked from the weekend..it held
not sure for how long ??

think some of it can be explained by dollar strength and some by the attractiveness of us large caps

Ok - I'm short Dax again. I think it's got more downside. I'm in @ 8242.

But I really hate shorting the Dax as I've said before its such a nerve racking ride but more rewarding.

Shorting the FTSE is like shooting fish in a barrel.

See what FTSE shorters get up to at the weekend.
