direction-less low volatility markets, RIO got killed in uk trading yday, down 4.7% or so.

FTSE has high at 5847 so in theory it should trickle down to 5805 ish

UK retail sales at 9.30 should be abysmal but then those pesky olympics will save them

850 is the gateway to more upside imo...still is at the mo but could change anytime...if we get a drop and some fresh buyers then we go up but we won't know til we get there...it might drop and sell...just my opinion🙂

it wouldbe nice if someone else would give their opinion 🙂

I'm selling from 5825.5 (was a bit late, wanted to enter at 5827) with tight stop. Target 5809.
5820 hit tells me to open parachute and prepare for a drop, but what do I know...

closed at 5817
