February 2017

[cimac]

First day of February tends to be bullish but
after that the month can be trouble for bulls.

Never give up, never surrender.

Short spx 2282.57

Just a profit required but 2031.50 would be nice ?

Never give up, never surrender.

Short Ftse 7165.80

In an ideal world I wanted 6170 so I will add
if we go higher in ooh around FMOC time.

Never give up, never surrender.

Closed 7155 and also closed the spx for 0.5pt
and have been shorting Cable from 1.2620

I think I will continue these small day trades
in whatever looks good odds at the time.
In the past I have exceeded 65 trades a day
and most times it works out well.

Never give up, never surrender.

So far the small day trades are working as I am not in the
market enough to caught caught by the algos … ouch !

But I do want a small short to cover the bumps in the
road as we pilot our way through February.

Small short spx 2285.32

Never give up, never surrender.

Well done Cimac.

You have done well to adapt the super computer algo driven market.

FED days are usually up, so I will let them do what they need to. Either way, in crookshour or tomorrow we can begin down again.

My target on this down run is a 224x print and then a 221x print.

I like fast and furious and thats what I am expecting 😉

Plan your trade, trade your plan!

Cheers ‘K’

I want to be short now and may wait until NFP
reaction before adding.

Whatever happens I will stay short over this
weekend as I think February will be bearish.

Never give up, never surrender.

Divided my Ftse short trade fund into six at 7140
with limits 7000 6500 6000 5500 5000 4500

I would start to trail stops from 7100 and if it
all goes pear shaped then I reentry higher.

I closed my spx short for a few quid and atm do
not have any other open trades.

With NFP friday it is hard to weigh the odds
but it is possible euroland and US will go
lower today which would help my risk as
stops would be set at b/e.

Never give up, never surrender.

Try again circa NFP

[cimac]

I have an entry order to short Ftse 7200

Never give up, never surrender.

[cimac]

Small short Ftse 7160 as my initial position.

Never give up, never surrender.

[cimac]

A lot of data in euroland and then NFP for
the algos to feed on.

Never give up, never surrender.

[cimac]

Small short Dow 19921 as my initial position.

Never give up, never surrender.

[cimac]

I have my Ftse and Dow initial short positions
and have cancelled other entry orders as I do
not want to add to losers only winners.

That is me done for the week.

Never give up, never surrender.
