Long Dow 816

 

Good luck. Let's see if it bounces off 800 this time, although I still have the idea that it's going to hit 11,600 some time this week.

i'm long dow too at 11812

[Phil Mibbutz 10]

Looks a bit like a 760 close now. (That should be worth a 50pt rise!)

[BuzzLightYear 10]

i'm long dow too at 11812

 

closed at b/e

[firewalker 10]

stop moved to 11780 on final part.

 

I stopped watching the market at lunchtime time, but I just wanted to put closure on this this trade: it obviously stopped itself out, that was the final 1/3rd of the short, and worth +40

 

I'm glad I shorted early today, but there were very nice opportunities to both sides today imo.

That's odd... well we all try our best in posting all of our trades live, but that's not always possible I guess. I hope you had couple of good ones too.

 

I did found out something rather peculiar. Trades I don't post here (there aren't many, but sometimes I'm too late to make it a fair "live" trade), are mostly losers. Perhaps subconsciously those trades where I feel 200% confident in entering are the ones I post and are usually winners too...

[BuzzLightYear 10]

Long ftse at 5650 now, might hold this one for a little bit, see how it goes

If I were in a long, I'd definitely hold on, it looks rather bullish today, but well, anything can happen...

Fed holds rates steady and dials up inflation worry

WASHINGTON (Reuters (LSE: TRIL.L - news) ) - The U.S. Federal Reserve held a key interest rate steady on Wednesday and voiced greater concern about inflation, taking a step down a road that could lead to higher borrowing costs.

 

The decision by the U.S. central bank, announced at the end of a two-day meeting, leaves the benchmark federal funds rate at 2 percent.

 

It was the first time the Fed has held rates steady at a policy-setting session since embarking on a series of rate reductions in September to put a floor under an economy hit hard by a housing downturn and credit crisis.

cautiously bullish here... well between now and Friday... lol
