CNBC saying Europe to go ahead with QE and giving details of how it will work.

This is the same CNBC that last Thursday were pushing the story NO Eurozone QE.
"Analysts like Hewson believe the central bank may not push the QE button just yet, however, and warned that markets could be bitterly disappointed by the outcome of the next ECB meeting."

For all those who went long on the news, you have been pumped and dumped courtesy of CNBC.

I hope they bought you dinner first.

or may be setting up for hell you never know.

 

[Jessi_trader]

WTI closer look... rally on its way ???

 

[scholfield]

what spread do you get on WTI? CL futures if often a 1 tick spread so I really resent paying the typical 5 pip spread that spreadbet firms seems to want

tbh I would stay well clear of longs where oil is concerned

As long as 4700 not breached... I am in... its a big gamble and worth taking a bet at this stage....and at this price.

I get 4 pips in IG and 5 pips at City Index.

cheers. Figured as much. Best I ever got was, I think, 3 pips (broker doesn't exist anymore)
Even though it moves nicely, 4 and 5 pips is a bit much for my liking, (for daytrading) bearing in mind that the futures often has a 1 tick spread!
