      Small short Dow at 25530

      The game has changed. We are now having to plan
      for Dow 26000 or even new aths and what follows
      which will take all of 2019

      Never give up, never surrender.

        Cimc, I was watching that dip on Friday a week before OE. just didn’t want to waste money buying calls. Would have worked. All this news suddenly pushing the market with OE on Friday . Happens most of the time.

        I am not trading much as work is keeping me busy. Sticking to investing for the longer term.

          Hi kitsu

          Good luck with your longer term investments.

          I retired when I was 49 so day trading has become my work substitute.

          As the market rises I will always have a short in play but look to
          open a new short at set higher levels and then use the previous
          entry to tag any retrace at a profit or b/e.

          It’s a boring process but it has worked for me in the past but I
          have failed to reap the full rewards from larger falls. So that
          must be where I have to learn, this time around.

          If the Dow wants 26k 27k 28k 29k 30k etc bring it on because
          old boy cimac will be at the snowy peak with his shorts on !

          Never give up, never surrender.

            A good couple of sessions at the office.

            New Dow short at 25625

            old short closed at 25530 for b/e.

            These gap up days should end or pause soon
            as you only see about three in a row.

            Never give up, never surrender.

                          Small short Ftse at 7250

                          That is my 2nd half and completes where I want to be.

                          As per the Dow I expect a drop and then a rally which
                          could last until the autumn / winter 2019.

                          As per usual it’s a play as we go type plan.

                          Never give up, never surrender.

                            Small short Dow at 25665

                            That’s me done on the Dow also ( still have short 25625 ).

                            Never give up, never surrender.

                              Closed the Ftse shorts at 7235 for a net b/e which then
                              cleared the decks for 30 Dow trades back and forth to
                              leave me with only a

                              Small Dow short at 25820

                              Very pleased with that result made possible because
                              markets have been in a range where many profits
                              can be picked up for not that much risk.

                              I expect a run to Dow 25900 – 26000 later tonight
                              or on monday but I will be fine holding short.

                              Never give up, never surrender.

                                  Dow futures are in retreat.

                                  I would like to see an ‘abc’ down into month’s end.

                                  Never give up, never surrender.
