Morning how's it going?

Slow start today.
Caprica1 is on form again.
I'm still making 10 points off 100 point moves.

No change really.

Hows life in the real world?

lol .... That's why I logged in .. to take the **** out of your trades Life is bizzare now I'm not tied to the screen all day .. I even manage to do some work!

I kept my dax short too long but still did nicely, got 50 up on a usd/jpy trade and still have a sniff at 10am and 3pm for a quickie.. nice pierced band at 9.40 this am only 20 points but not bad in this range. How's the dog?

Ah work! I tried that once and didnt like it. If an old goat like me can get away with sitting at home making 10 to 20 points a day then anyone can do it. Now I come to think about it, you went back to working .

This is like the Jeremy Kyle show for traders. Car crash TV. You know you shouldnt be watching, but somehow you cant take your eyes off it.

Me and the dog are off out (in the sunshine ) because these markets have ground to a halt, and more importantly, because we can. (Insert 'smug' smiley).
Good luck.

If this is the top, target of 6626 on the ftse (38.2% retracement of this big move)

At least another 30 points down on Dax from 9590 before Dow opens.

I'm short Dax waiting for 9560,

Is that where you will bail out?

Depends how it approaches the level, I usually bail too early. I might hold, but lock in the 30. IF it ever gets there.

From 1min chart if it doesnt get there by 1400CET it will probably not get there..

Yes.
On the plus side I've moved my stop down, and if it keeps in the channel its worth holding on to.
