FTSE 100 February

[bonsai]

have you tried BOC ?

 

[barjon]

no - not in my stable

ps: why did you get out of ulvr - signal or just sufficient profit?

 

[Hooya]

ive been watching UVLR since you mentioned it. Got a nice looking 60 min chart. Looks quite toppy and a gap below seems quite inviting.

 

[barjon]

....but will it close the gap above first?

 

[bonsai]

just a profit take
>10%
could go higher but would like to get back in lower down

 

[Hooya]

might well do Barjon. Nice chart btw. but looks overbought at the mo. Very similar chart shape to the UKX

 

[bonsai]

mully
you're a 250 man ?

are you into alba ?

 

[barjon]

mmm, may well be - there is a smaller gap you may have
noticed which could have given resistance.

 

[bonsai]

cmc gone down
clocks ticking over but no quote updates

 

[Hooya]

just restart. Happened twice on MM5....came back straight away

quotes 4095-98; 4541-43; 1.8614-18

 

[bonsai]

done.
ta muchly

Bonsai,

I do not follow Alba. However, given its outperformance of the FTSE250 since late last year, it appears to be an oversight on my behalf.

Investors appear to like the purchase in January of Grundig's consumer brands.

 

[Hooya]

im flat on the £$

 

[bonsai]

just closed
85 pips

 

[Hooya]

well traded

 

[bonsai]

thanks
sometimes I wish I did stop and reverse !

lol

 

[Hooya]

I bet you do but Im sure deep down you know its better not to
.....so they say

 

[bonsai]

no question

the idea that the market will regularly turn on a sixpence is a joke, imo

 

[Hooya]

in order to stop and reverse you would have to wait for a confirmed short signal if you had been long. This would reduce the amount of profit on winners and increase losses on losers. So not very good for traders who trade signals and not guesses. However, I have to say that my closing is getting better and It is moving closer to stop and reverse but only in certain situations. Depending which signal I am trading

 

[bonsai]

at last, somebody has woken up the dax (I hope)
