Dow 2008

[Mr.J-Arthur]

I've closed my short and waiting for the bottom to be put in. This is a crazy market, it's giving all of yesterday's gains back!

 

[Mr.J-Arthur]

I've got 9 lives and i'm very lucky guys

Gone for a risky buy at 10700, S/L at 10680

 

[Mr.J-Arthur]

give it a go. I went long and was taken out easily. too easy to sell off.

I might try a long when a reversal shows up knocking

 

[Gaffs1964]

Irritatingly Fins charts are 15 mins behind the times! - I've been thinking "buy at 10700"? it might not get there!
if only they could do their charts 15mins in front!

 

[Mr.J-Arthur]

I call dow at 10400-600 when the carnage ends.

 

[dans_ya_man]

Sold 10790

 

[dans_ya_man]

These short little moves seem to be the way to play this market, get in quick/get out quick

 

[Mr.J-Arthur]

yes and no. Too bad we didn't short the very tip top highs yesterday...big money was made and lost!

market probably heading lower right now.

 

[dans_ya_man]

Like breadman was saying the other day, I think we may well have a bottom by the end of this week

 

[dans_ya_man]

Nice bit of panic kicking in now

The thing that bugs me about Fins is that if there is a high probability bet they mysteriously crash. The one earlier this afternoon cost me 9 S&P points. But maybe its my ISP ( Tesco ) that causes it. Not sure. Would change but they are cheap at £1 per S&P point.

possible longs on the radar but not quite yet imho

 

[Gaffs1964]

I don't think it's your ISP, I've had this problem a few times on different systems, I'm just opening an account with cmc, as someone suggested, so at least I can see what's going on. It's a bit of a pain though I feel blind without a chart to see.

In long for the bounce

 

[Pat494]

In long for the bounce

Thanks Gaffs. It would be interesting to know if they are any better. I suggest Stockcharts.com or ProRealTime.com for charts

 

[Pat494]

In long again

 

[Pat494]

[Gaffs1964]

Thanks for that, I'll have a look.
