Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

I dunno why people don't just keep the blinkers on. If you listen to any of these guys it's bound to influence your thinking. Even on this thread when people I respect announce a contrary position to mine I take fright and it's hard work to clear it from your mind and concentrate on your own thing.

Another point is that there's only one thing you can control (within reason) and that's how much you lose. If things go your way you can partly control how much you take if you know how much you need to take from the market to keep your account ticking along on the right side. Other than that it's all in the lap of the Gods.

Lastly, entries are easy but they put no bread on the table - that's the job of exits.

well talking about bread bj ......

morning barjon,

that system of correlation seems very good, solid method and also very low risk, thanks for sharing it.

Doesn't look like there's going to be much action until US markets start waking up !
 
If I were a sceptic I would say someone got wind of those Euro Retail sales figures before they were officially announced !
 
Good Morning all............
