Message For Ftse Traders......

Morning gents. A question - on IG we have 24 hour markets, the problem is that charting things like moving averages and trendlines may be messed up by this. What time ranges are you lot using? I mean are you excluding 10 pm to 7 am on the ftse?

yes i follow the cash times, 8.00-4.30

I have amended to 7.00 - 22.00
 
hello looks like the 600 level is going to get smashed sometime later today.. get ready..

I would advise caution

the chart i posted has solid support around that level.........

Knecktie= 20 & 50 MA converge!!!

and you have 200 MA right below it...........

I will be very surprised it gets taken out

time frame

I always have charts on 12.00 to 12.00 but it shouldnt make any difference to your charting if you set the open and close to the open and close of the market (for the FTSE future thats 8:00am to 9:00pm because there isnt any data outside those times.
Keep an eye on the 30 min chart. Yesterday was a good example.

I think that you are right. I am short at 3598 from 0857.

You picked a good spot to enter. I came on late, this morning.
 
There's a load of euro-zone data out at 10am, could see that giving conviction to the market one way or the other, before the US opens.
