Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

Thats like laying a 1:7 odds on favorite at the races. (HTW dont even go there).
It works MOST of the time.

Actually its nothing like that.
I cant trade, post, and do maths at the same time whilst looking for videos and keeping HTW in check.
I'll post later.
 
dl what u think of selling the one touch 520 dow and buying the one touch 320, for no cost.

just exposed if dow can raly 190

520 = 6 and 320 = 50

SD,

what your suggesting is a high risk high probability trade.
In order to fund buying the 320 touch it costs 50, you will need to sell 9 of the 520 touch bets (9x6=54) to cover this.
If things go well you gain 54 for selling the 520's and gain 50 for buying the 320's total 104 profit.

If things go the other way you lose 50 on the 320 and you lose 6x94=752 on the 520's total 802 loss.

Its an 8:1 risk reward ratio, it works most of the time but when it doesnt it goes horribly wrong.

The analogy is backing the favorite and laying the outsider to cover the cost in a horse race.

Postman.
