Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[postman]

Could easily help make good returns and buy a ice cream van with the profits in no time.

Nah, you would need a +99 pip strategy for that.

 

[wallstreetwarrior87]

Short Dax @518

Closed @519 - nothing happening at present.

Still short Dow from 423

 

[wallstreetwarrior87]

Short Dax @547

 

[foroom lluzers]

ftse too fast to trade today

 

[cantagril]

Short Dax @500 Target 450

Raised target 485

Added Short at 532 Target 485

Still long 4 lots @330, 353, 390 and 434

Only in my mind, of course.

532 short stopped at BE

Dax chart just posted by MoneyLender on P&F thread showing 575 as significant level

Added 1 short @573

 

[wallstreetwarrior87]

So it looks like today could be damage limitation:whistling

Plan of attack is to manage the position in the Dax and let the Dow gap play out.

 

[wallstreetwarrior87]

Short Dow @423

Bailed Dow @511

Not adding any units so near to the All time high.

Just running Dax now.

It looks like the dow pre market 'massaging' has been done.
Ive taken a second short at 21,510.

Come on Yellen.

Yes we have seen this so many times before, up 1 way pre, then 1 way back post, Just had to decide on which markets to save the ammo for.

The Dax is now at the extreme of a bigger bear flag, so its either going to retreat or blast through.

 

[foroom lluzers]

After all that movement I made 74.5 points on each of 2 positions.
Now I'm back short at 390 waiting for Thursday.

I bet WSW made more than me today!

Where is your stop?

Since the demand is there for live calls in advance I have entered orders to sell Dow at 21538 and Dax at 12634.
If I get filled, which I expect, the plan is 100+ on each and review as we get near. Happy to let them go against me for a while and could add if the madness continues. I usually enter 1/3 of max pos initially and can add if I am right as well as wrong.
This is for real money, you know the stuff you can give in shops and places and get things for.

Not a hard stop but 12700 and 21610 would make me think about exits.

 

[NickBk]

Ok Dow in play now.

 

[NickBk]

Dax in play too, that was fast!

 

[no stops trader]

$4,950 <T'day Unrealized
$10,623 <T'day Realized

 

[postman]

New all time high on the dow.

What now?

 

[wallstreetwarrior87]

Short Dax @630 2nd Unit

 

[postman]

3 months before we make a new high.

 

[10pips]

Considering moving averages are 'flat' on DOW for me....I will let the dust settle and look at shorts.
