Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

yes everything gapped up from on Sunday night...

nice trade on fiber sell at 1.2625....keep trying as long as it works....

also open a long separately for medium term

Yes, I did not catch that one. With everything quiet in the West, except London? and Madrid (holiday in Cataluña) is Forex worth trading, or should I wait until tomorrow?

good question...

one can trade with tight / trailing SL...in thin markets you may get exaggerated moves....but today's slight risk off sentiment and many pairs hitting nice S/R levels it presents good opportunities....need to stay nimble though
 
yes s&p gapped up over 22 (cash) which gave us all the grief on friday...good chance this will come back to close /test 22....ftse needing a higher high again but over 380 for the mo:)

sd, seems to show on all the time scales (cash)
 
now if fiber closes that gap and then rebounds will that not be a lot of fun....

certainly would be :cheesy:....does it usually close gaps? isee another on may 4th not closed yet....great trade again samirs think your in a different league mate

seems the markets have triggered the buy stops all over the place.

no it does not seem to be closing gaps...if it does wouldnt it be too obvious

as for me I am only a junior learner....learning from people like you, SD and other stalwarts who dont seem to be posting enough

I just keep the thread bumping with my junk posts :LOL:

You are doing ok! I know this is an FT thread, but, still, you deserve an acknowledgement for that one!

Nevertheless, I think that I will leave today alone.
 
might not get direction today ......wandering about and staying over that resistance would be a good result for the bulls but s&p gap is a bit of a worry now........DL's elliot waffle still on course :)

A bit of wandering is what you should be doing, today, Dick.:) I?m going out for a bit, myself, around Barcelona. A beautiful day and a holiday. Most people left town on Saturday so it is quiet.
