Yes, me too, closed my short too early. Always seem to close too early. Must work on that.

 

I can see it going up from here? I'll stick my neck out and go for a 275 finish....

[Phil Mibbutz 10]

Hope you didn't stick any money where your neck was!

[Phil Mibbutz 10]

Looks like a grim day tomorrow for the FTSE and DAX.

fortunately not. neck well inside shell now!

Pleased to hear it. As I've been finding recently, the problem then is getting the courage to make a reappearance. Not trading is a great way of minimising losses, but it's hard to make a profit!

[BuzzLightYear 10]

Agree Phil, Took a time out the other week and think it cleared the mind.

 

My position now is long ftse aug - average of 3 trades is at 5435, stop at 5360, target around 5550

Prediction: Dax yet to post the weeks high

 

Its been strong all day...and did not fall that much on the sell off yesterday...

Expected a bigger fall first thing on the Europeans, don't know about later. Is there any remotely good news around to support a rise?

Nothing comes to mind...just absence of bad perhaps

Prediction 2: Oil yet to make LOW of the week

[Foale 10]

Long Dax 6353

So far getting it all wrong...

 

 

However I feel a 300+ Dow day more likely than a -300 day over the next week...

[Foale 10]

well we are on the brink of a larger fall or larger rise... lol

 

When someone knows which one it is...post it here...

Usually one plays with trend but this level on the dow has been tested so many times a double bottom bounce is favourable if we take out 240, I have shorted 160 hoping for a retest of previous lows....lower highs and lows etc...

[Phil Mibbutz 10]

Short 187... but 200 would have been preferable, if you see what I mean.

165 limit hit, although target should probably be 11000.

[Phil Mibbutz 10]

Repeat run from 184 this time.

If I had any reputation for calls I have shot it today....but I have just loaded and tweaked some sexy customised add on to my indicators and with renewed confidence... lol

 

I think that todays low was quite signifincant very large volume on the Dax on the low 15 min bar..so I am bullish..and a bit less poor than earlier on..

[Foale 10]

My Dow daily has a blue bar...first one in 33 trading days...

[Foale 10]

If we break the days high...could see a quick 50 spirt in the Dow imo

 

 

strike that I can see some weakness coming in...

Was going to short at about 260 on first peak, but dithered. Now in at 264, but not going to hang around if it reaches 280.

230 limit hit, and it's still going down.
