+1600??? bloody hell.

Well played

I gotta be honest. It didnt come easy though. I started the day hedging both sides of the trade. I had a good day session shorting the Nikkei, When the Dax opened, i was literally placing trade after trade with 3 screens on 3 different platforms. i had 6 margin calls and my IG & CMC brokers are like wth. 22 closed trades 1 out of the money(EurUsd)-20pips.

I hope u guys had success in your trades too. Good luck all. There is still some way to go Until then, success in your trading and watch the screen for spikes

All i want to do is trade and once again colleagues are talking too much. One even has my laptop now.

Wth...snatch it back. Or make a deal with them. That if u are successful with your trades today, u'll buy them a round at the tavern

I wouldn't touch any supposed support area with a barge pole. I think we're Tanking. Greece is about to implode.

must be the reason for the tank,,day traders paradise

Haha sadly. I was seeing that as easy money. Hopefully the market is stupid enough to rally of the number is good

Somehow or rather it would happen. Its not that Greece is not motivated to sign on the deal, these lending banks have ludicrous demands and exhorbitant lending rates with a lot of unwritten clauses which would bite Greece in the long term. If only the bladdy banks arent so greedy but hell..... otherwise, we wouldn't be having a field day for us day/swing traders.

A nicemove just now off that pivot area

Buy order set @ 11120 area. Will wait to see if it gets hit. :whistling

I still have short bias. Did take a short off the 11400s today but didn't post it. However, exited way too early. Could have tripled it with hindsight.

Small error on my behalf. This morning trade closed for -8 not +8. My maths failing me. Noticed as I was doing eod p&l.


Also, oil dropped nicely off the 60s and gold is a buy anywhere above 70s for me. Behaving much better than the indeces fwiw.

Opec and NFP tomorrow. Should be fun.

mornin all
