Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[barjon]

...never bothers me leaving plenty on the table though. i know what i need to take to keep the account ticking along and although i'm mostly shooting for more i always protect the minimum and make sure i don't lose it.

Insiders betting on a market decline
Commentary: Insiders overwhelmingly choosing sells over buys

Consider an index of insider behavior calculated by the Vickers Weekly Insider Report, published by Argus Research, which is based on the ratio of shares sold by insiders to shares bought. Last week, according to the latest issue of the Vickers service, this ratio for NYSE-listed issues stood at 5.13-to-1. The comparable ratio in early September was 5.97-to-1.

great. 5816/5812 would have worked great but ftse could only drag it self to 5810

yesterday one of our guys suggested a h&s on the hourly chart...

below 5780 could be a change in mid trend imho

Dow on yesterdays close should have led to a technical rebound today, but none has come as of 17:06.

FTSE is 100% bearish on todays 4.36 close. only fake news or stop running can cause it to go up on Thursday.

aye - first red light

On chart:

1. caution on failure to make new highs
2. trend line break - first red light
3. first confirmation
4. second confirmation

I'll still have long bias in until 3
