      Small short Dow 17515

      US ooh indicates a gap up but it will be into resistance
      and there is also a chance we do not gap up in rth.

      Either way I like the odds of a profit, no advice etc.

      Never give up, never surrender.

        Took the profit below Dow 17500 and now have a Ftse short at 6860
        playing on that gap up and then I will go out and be back for
        the FMOC action.

        Never give up, never surrender.

          I will take the 30pts and be happy with that.

                FMOC is often a 3 way move and why not this time with Ftse
                and Dax and US majors at fish or cut bait levels.

                Never give up, never surrender.

                  My girlfriend has another interesting trade, all ready in play.

                  It involves taking her normal size trade and dividing by five.
                  Short Ftse at big round numbers using the fifth size trades.
                  6800 6900 7000 7100 7200

                  I have looked at the margin and drawdown if it goes to 7200
                  and she has the finances. I have suggested leaving the last
                  two 7100 7200 ie don’t place entry orders and then review
                  the situation if we get to 7000. Also it would be wise to
                  use trailing stops on open position( like 6800 ) even if
                  it does result in reopening trades if markets churn alot.

                  No advice intended as your all capable of coming up with
                  your own barmy boffin plans 😉

                  Never give up, never surrender.

                        Well she has excepted a modification which I think
                        is a safer trade setup because it has less risk.

                        Still using fifth size trades.
                        Short 6800 ( in play now )
                        Short 7000
                        Short 7200
                        Keep the other two fifths as backup or day trades
                        as the market pans out over time.

                          My plan is to trade the FMOC reaction which would
                          be made the sweeter if Ftse closed muted and then
                          the US takes off and gives me an ooh entry for a
                          short vs the close. IE like this morning I have
                          a gap between me and the rth open.

                          Time for a walk as it’s cold but sunny.

                          Never give up, never surrender.

                                I would prefer the initial FMOC reaction to be down then rally
                                into the close. That would get me short on the ooh Ftse for a
                                thursday gap up. Then we can have the final down move and
                                not stop 😉

                                ( just incase the stock market God is reading the kpad )

                                Never give up, never surrender.
