haha............no my friend!!

I have said to my self I will not trade in order to discipline my self.....

but I keep failing each time(S&P long)....

must go back to wax on, wax off

I think today might be another sell off day..
So I expect the ftse to retrace to about half its recent fall to ~3570 then resume the fall.
Of course Im not sure what effect the interest rate news will have... so Im not live trading.

good luck gents

 

[hairyman]

have a good day day today. closed my short positions. best day of week so far for me.
i had a poor one yesterday.
now am going to stop making any more trades, as too often ive given back my profits as i have a tendency to overtrade..
g luck to all.
my own opinion is that overall for the medium term it is a bear, get your claws out

I'm just going to throw this out here - one of the things I'm looking at is a potential bear flag break down on the S&P. If it works out, the measured move is to the 6350 area. While we could be just expanding the channel the possibility of a breakdown is something we need to bear in mind.

 

[wallstreet1928]

I'm the only bull today on this forum................

lets see who wins now that i have used my own money.....hehee!!

Money trades just to show you I believe in my analysis

barclays long 75.6 stop loss 70 ..........target 83!!

long Rio tinto 1729..stop loss 1700 ...target 1800

long FTSE 3555...stop loss 3525!! target 3600- 3620

OK let the mini bull market begin..........

wave 4 correction still in place

s&p still looks like its in a downward channel over the last month. At the moment it looks lke the Dow is holding this up.... Im confused today - nothing obvious for me here, but will err as a bear.

i hope that is consoling!!

but please do your own analysis

FTSE chart

Hello all, just got back and see I have an activated order - long at 3540

If this goes breasts up, you all have permission to scream at me for trying to pick a bottom!

At least it seems (as predicted) that the 50 basis point cut was already priced in...

 

[wallstreet1928]

added another long S&P 694..........stop loss 690!!

I think that makes it 3 contracts long in total @ an average of 695-696........

stop loss 689..........

let the games begin!!!

already in profit on RIo tinto
