Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

My Word! I'll never be as close to my stop as I was then. I don't know why I am still in. For a SB firm, I should not be.

I told them that they had credited my account twice, last month. Maybe. I am in their good books!

Spitlink.. many years ago I had a SB account who kept crediting my account with monies I had not earned.. four weeks later they went bust and it took me 12mths to
get my money back..

Stands to reason that if they make errors like that then there whole admin and segregation procedures are not up to the job.

Don't knock 'em until I say so. :)
 
This is shades of last Wednesday. I'm, either going to lose those 10 points, or I'll make some money.

Unlucky DJ

It has been an awkward choppy day

Hoping for a better tomorrow then and at least you still have the splendid discipline to quit at your limit

I see
maybe if the DOW has an in session go at 140 we would see 606 but then tomorrow should be the day to play
 
Tough luck DJ. It's been a nasty pm session with two spikes down at 15:10 and 15:20 to fish for stops. But somehow we know it wants to go up.
 
Seems market is doing exact opposite of last years rally. It moves down overnight then up during the day.
Most indicators showing neg divergence at the moment and too may people talking about Xmas rallies.
I'm voting sell off soon.

maybe

but if we can make a new high out of todays messiness then we may not sell off before 5665
 
It's a critical week for the euro. If they can get through this and come out with a plan that the ratings agencies like, then I don't see why we won't get a relief rally. And as MC keeps reminding us we've got options expiry on the 16th, and I believe they will try and keep it up until then.
 
Timmy says he is very encouraged by european progress

BOE set up new liquidity facility

the two items may be mutually exclusive
