Great minds Ian .............................. :cheesy:

Good luck - wheres your stop?

Hi, I've got a tight 5 - 6 point stop till it gets moving then give it some room - dont like to give away the profit made earlier.

Hallo Ian,

Are you on the chat show? 🙂 Nice to see you around. I said I was packing in index trading last autumn but, to be honest, trading London shares can be tedious, so have started on Footsie again.

This morning I made 9.5 points long and went short at 57.8.

Good trading
