Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[postman]

IG sunday indices have the DAX down 500 points!

Had to buy a small amount!

And FTSE down 200 points.
So much for miserable low volume summer trading.

Haha - you wuld have been stupid to have a long position over the weekend - the way these Greeks have been going on

 

[MichaelJohnFX]

Dax to 10,000 now. Then Buy Buy Buy

They must be discounting the ELA funding being turned off.

Time to get used to an EU without Greece - not really the end of the world is it?

IMO no. But i think it's more the precedent it sets. Imagine if Greece actually does better outside the Euro (highly unlikely) that would get Ireland, Portugal etc to start scratching their heads.

Please pump more money into the Eurozone Draghi

Don't listen to what these people tell you. They're there to take your money. People shuda just been patients tbh.

And bullmarket only has one more leg up, if anything imo. We'll be in a bear market this time next year.

Pity FTSE stocks don't ever rise

But me too, this weeks buy will be centrica.

 

[f2calv]

^ good stuff, me too

I'm away pretty much all of July, seems I'm going to miss some super volatile interesting times!

Regardless I have already queued up some small-sized [far-quarter] dax positions down to 10000

I dont think anyone would know if the FTSE rises or not, no one trades that old dog anymore.

Today shows why you never hold positions over the weekend and should even think twice about overnights.

Someone else might say the opposite on days with a +2% gap up.

I'm just hoping for a nice 50% pullback on the DOW so I can pick up some bargains.

 

[MichaelJohnFX]

but overall i think postman is right. It's silly to hold weekend / overnight positions On leveraged platforms.

That'd be lovely haha

 

[samspade79]

Anyone remember the Cyprus gap. We had bought it all up by the open.

 

[postman]

I'm ready.
