Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[counter_violent]

The long term view.

Crucial time imo. We been ranging for a couple of years with a narrowing range over the last year and we're now into the last swing resistance range with the first light coming on with the break of the trendline (just). Retreating out of that resistance area will turn that light off, but clearing the resistance area will turn the second light on with a third if the next resistance zone goes.

It's a no brainer

The Fed and others seem to think it's fine to print more folding stuff so the markets will soak this up. However, the real problem is not so much the price of the index but the value of it (inflation adjusted). Not really a very good deal when you think about it !

Probably won't affect global markets at the moment.
But if it gets worse and spreads then will probably affect the markets.
If the markets head or drop lower it will more than likely come from a left field event none of us see coming.

Indeed one of their Traders is linked to me on Twitter and suggested I had another look at the site and Platform. I'd always considered it "cluttered" although only my opinion but signed in and there is a better look to it...........

Possibly because Markets are over valued presently......??

Thanks Lee

Always good to share and learn from other traders.

At the end of the day we all have one common goal.

Forum if always positive and there is a bit of a joke along the way.

It's a bit of a lonely business and not your normal 9 to 5 job (more hours).

Enyoy the weekend.

Holding short on FTSE from 5896 with Stop brought up to even............
Normally wouldn't do that this close but it wouldn't suprise me for Markets to take off after 08.15......
