Sycom close 5246
Yesterdays day close 5098

So we should get one of much loved Gap opens.

Have a great day!

 

[Freddo]

got my rally off the open.

Now lets see if we get the gap trying to close

Anyone else seeing the funny buggers BOT. Every down tick puts in a 25 to 40 buy order on the bid then if someone comes over the top with a higher bid it disappears but then instantaneously reappears if the higher bid gets taken out.

Not a buy BOT not a sell BOT but a go nowhere BOT

It's done just enough to flick me out of my short.
I was hoping it would fall out of bed.

Thats me done for the day. Time to sit and watch.

We should get another Gap day today.

Sycom close is 100 points lower then yesterdays close.

Usual game plan, today I'm looking for a short entry after it opens
then at some stage we should see the gap trying to close.
If it goes like a freight train trying to close up the gap from the open then I'll forget the short

Well good bye to the march 08 contract its been a ripper.

Tried to slip stream off a 2 minute chart when it took off upwards from the open which didn't work out.

got my Short entry as it came back through on the down side which put some points in my pocket, but it did just enough for me to go long as it turned and went through the open again before I got stopped out.

Bring back the March contract, I liked it much better

Looks like the SPI is going to sleep.

I'm only posting this because it normally does the opposite right after I post

Is it just me, or is IB having some glitches, like not accepting orders and graphs not updating?

thx

[Trembling Hand]

Looks like it was the daylight savings thing Day trading margins are back

 

[Broadway]

[Freddo]

Should see some action today with a decent size GAP expected at the open
Have a great day Freddo

 

[julius]

Well thats got to be the easiest 44-point gap close in a while...

Pitty I wasn't on it (IB )

Could you ecplain that please Julius?

From what I see we opened at 5610, which is about 170 points above the gap to yesterday's high, and about 205 points above yesterday's 430pm close.

Are you referring to a gap from a long time ago?

 

[Trembling Hand]

What about this.

I FAT FINGERED it, with full size, without a bracket order...lost half my days stop before I realized I was long rather than short!!!!! Haven't done that one for a while!!
