lol - what is it they say? I always win at gambling - its only when they cheat that I lose ;)

UK employment nums came in slightly better than expected. we've stalled at .618 retrace of the decline from yesterdays highs. Feds up later so assuming we'll head back to the 4670 area from here
 
lol Neely has changed his mind again! (The joys of being an EW practitioner eh)

Needless to say he is all bearish again on the S&P suggesting this pop higher is a bull trap out of an expanding triangle and bull suckers will be buying into the next 200-300 pts of decline until they realise they should've been selling

zzzzzzzz
 
hi el caballo - no he publishes it purely as TA with no detail re: entry or exit points - i.e., to be used at your own peril ;)
 
strong day in the UK. FTSE making new recovery highs, Aus made its highs last week & currently around 200pts adrift - strange to not be more in synch

hey edwont, do you trade the FTSE? I was thinking of having a look at it, but not sure how good or bad it moves for short term trading?

has been trading it

the hours have been suiting my sleep patterns of late

yes theres cash to be made (or lost) on its intraday moves of late
 
^FTSE far "spikier" than the SPI, with longer tails (but more depth!)
Good trading hours as nun said.
Sadly it has lost a lot of the real paper orders. Mostly traders and bots

hi Sam - depends what you mean by short term. First 90 mins are generally pretty good, if there's not much there then be prepared to have to wait for US to open (which doesn't suit me) so generally I'm only looking for the first 90 mins. Sometimes I'm done in the first 10 mins. opening gaps are worth a look
cheers

Yeah thats what I'm after, first 90 minutes of anything are the only parts worth trading.

Thanks for the replies guys :)

Would this explain why when using Market Delta it gets more hits on the bid then the offer when price is going up? Really weird
 
setting up.... room for some push higher yet
