Taz

Great entry foale - what are these new indicators ? they certainly work..........

Why do you have resistance there Phil ? I have looked at the 1 hour but nothing sticks out at me ......... Taz ( the man with his head stuck in the 1 min chart)

What size stops are you guys using ?

I meant in terms of points ? I just have Sep FTSE...............

Whats the difference between Aug and cash Buzz ?

:haha: I must admit option 3 gets my vote..............

:applaud: Great stuff Buzz.............what t/f you using ?

What time are GE results released ? I cant find a time but from memory it was 1130am in the UK. Can anyone confirm ?

What do you make of his market maps ? I took a weeks trial but decided they were not for me.

What tf/strat you using Buzz ? I am using CCI based strat on the 1minute and I did not get an entry until 350pm.......

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to where this will stop ?

I like to get out as soon as it turns against me..............dont like taking the pain............ Do you use indicators foale ?

Very impressive performance Foale - especially from not going lower than the 15 minute................ It will be interesting to see how you get on as you raise trade size. For me my performance in terms of points tends to go down as the stake size increases. I am happy to grab 10 points at a decent size whereas if it was only £5 per point I would be more likely to let it runthan see it go 10 points against me. The flip side is that you get more free time and I think I come to the screen refreshed each day rather than sitting for hours and hours. Still - horses for coures etc - look forward to seeing how you get on ! (BY the way - how does everyone else get on when increasing size ?)

It all kicked off after NFP

I have only logged in to the web platform - it scrolls along at the bottom of the screen............

This trade ticker from CMC is rivetting.........£250 a point short ftse, £250 long Dow, £296 short FTSE...........gonnna have to switch it off; sititng here like a rabbit caught in the headlights...........

Does anyone here use CMC ? I have just looked at their new web platform and it shows live trades in a ticker. Fascinating viewing..............

Where do you get yout volume information from foale?

Hmmmm probably take the other side of FW's trades.................. :o I would have to say ensuring I trade with the larger trend; eg only taking trades on the 1 min when the 5 min is pointing in the same direction. Fewer trades but more profit and certainly less stress............

Looks like I have been shot down in flames re the pounds per point question............ :bad idea: I was curious as I have a contact in one of the large spread betting companies and according to him the average trade they handle is under £5 per point. Though there are some big hitters at eye watering amounts - £20000 per point on the dow according to him. :shocked: So my reason for asking was to see how the people on here compared ......

Was not inteneded to be a euphenism - though after I posted it I thought it did look a bit Yes Ministerish............. :doh:

Agree with you about the chat room; I have tried that over the years but I end up missing opportunites through getting involved in meaningless conversations..........so that was kicked into touch. I was meaning call the trade and then switch the mic OFF; no prattle at all. I end up not posting trades in here as they tend to be shorter term and I tend to focus on the trade when I open it. Then I think there is no point inn posting in here several minutes after it was opened............ As for economic reports - I look at the calendar to know when there will be announcements - but I gave up analysing what they 'meant' years ago. Why did I not do that when I started trading ? :doh:

I know its never or almost never discussed but whats sort of size is everyone trading here ? Fancy putting cards on the table ? Not looking for your exact amounts but I am curious as to what the range is ? £1 a point ? £5 a point ? £ 20 ? £50 ? £100 ?

Without wishing to take anything away from here - would anyone be interested in joining a voice trading room to call those shorter trades that for one reason or another are not posted in here ? I use one for Dow trading in the afternoon and it works really well......... I stress - an audio trading room - not a distracting chat room.

Brave entry there foale :applaud: What mage you go long there ? I like to wait and see the 5 min turn even if it means missing a few points.
