Disregard my previous post Barjon I didn't read yours properly in the first place. Yep I see what you're saying

ok

but just had to close. Bloody Internet has gone down so had to close on my iPhone using the IG app. Probably could have left it but the charts are a bit rubbish on the phone version and I'm not happy if I can't monitor the trade sufficiently well. Rang SKY BB they reckon it could be down til Wed!!! Still they gave me a fiver off my bill

[Soloquan]

Okay so this is still at -24, is it too late to enter again now? Would you wait until Dow opens in the US?

running about +14 now - not much left in it for me since got somewhere round +20 in mind

 

[Soloquan]

+14?

Okay I thought I got it.... I don't

Dow -148
ftse -99

148/2 = 74

ftse -99 should be -74 so trading -25 less than it 'should'

long ftse short dow?

+14? yeah I totally don't understand

 

[barjon]

entries ftse long 5564 dow short 12726

now ftse offer 5554 (-10) dow bid 12678 ( -48)

-48/2=-24 but ftse only -10 therefore net=+14

 

[barjon]

gotta go out - closed off for +5

 

[SuddenDeath]

RIO down 3.4% HSBA down 3.4%

[Dick Lexic]

RIO down 3.4% HSBA down 3.4%

it's beginning to look as if ftse thinks so - but it won't be a pair play
