Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

Still dribbling coffee down my shirt front.

Position @ ftse close

6763 = +2 x2
16772 = +51

... that's rubbing salt in the wounds :LOL:

This pair trading lark, it'll never catch on.
When are you going to become a proper trader. :whistling
 
Trading Dax:
Today everything happened in a blink of an eye, and like I said yesterday:

TP2 @..... : 9983,0 OK :)
TP1 @..... : 9953,0 OK :)
Long @.... : 9918,0
SL @ ....... : 9891,0

.............................................
Happy trading

wow, by the time I edited the above, B/E was achieved,

Good night all, a beer and footie awaits
 
AS I typed the above, Facebook real time was 63.24, the delayed price was 63.09, so I would expect the difference to be hit shortly, lets see

Hey presto, real time price achieved already:), food for though and more investigation

Just re visiting this, if you check the Dow value against ig's prices you will notice its being kept 2 or 3 points below the actual value.
They are expecting a retrace and wont let you get a good entry price.
 
managed to get another couple of scalps in.

+4 ticks on the Bund future
+5 ticks on the oil future

to go with the +5 ticks on the Bund earlier and +14.3 pips on cable earlier.

now for brazil v. mexico!

Tops off a really good day on the equities.
Nice NQ short
Nice to have some swings back rather than the usual one-way grind.

(However, must confess that I lost money today on my equities trading)

"After a 3-5% rally into July that takes the market up to about Dow 17500, S&P 2025 and NASDAQ 4500, look for major averages to fall 10-15% with a low in the August-October period to the vicinity of Dow 15000, S&P 1750 and NASDAQ 3800."

"Then look for a move sideways to slightly higher throughout 2015 with an ultimate high near yearend 2015. Then the next bear market is likely to begin in earnest, taking the market 30-40% lower into 2017-2018 into the range of Dow 11500-13500, S&P 1350-1575 and NASDAQ 3000-3500."

I may go on Bloomberg news giving my 'expert analysis' nearer the time and get everyone on board once I've positioned myself. :LOL:
