          My stop was taken at b/e from the Ftse 6800 short.

          I have just taken a Ftse short at 6825 and may add at 6850 6875
          depending on how we climb higher, if we infact do.

          Not too much trading for me until FMOC is done, when we should
          have a better idea. In general I think down after that.

          Never give up, never surrender.

            Atm the best outcome is for a trader to survive, ready to trade
            with the trend. We all want that perfect trade at the start of
            a new robust move but it is a myth, imho.

            The top traders that I have known are not bulls or bears. They
            are more akin to someone buying and selling fruit. Good times,
            bad times, they just trade for a profit, again and again.

            Never give up, never surrender.

              Just FYI
              Many stock market indicators are saying we
              take a dip within 15mins of this post.

              Never give up, never surrender.

                Worked for me 😉

                  Lastnight I closed the Ftse 6825 short at 6800 and will now
                  stand aside until after FMOC and then start opening shorts.

                  Never give up, never surrender.

                    Short Ftse 6800 as a guard against downward surprises.

                    If we go up then I will add at 6825 6850 6875 which
                    would complete my short setup.
                    If we go higher still then I will wait for the drop
                    which I expect after the FMOC fireworks.

                    Nothing else to do now but enjoy the sunshine 🙂

                      German data released at 13:00
                      US data released at 13:30

                      It’s the reaction we look at, not the numbers.

                      If the reaction is very bad then even FMOC at 19:00
                      is likely to be a side show.

                      If the reaction is very good then that could well
                      feed the market right into FMOC.

                      Fireworks ? Yes, I would think so.

                          Fed have painted themselves into a corner as
                          they should now quicken the QE reduction and
                          also reduce the time to rate hikes.

                          A market that has risen on QE will be given
                          double hits.

                          That’s what happens when you have a market
                          which is out of touch with the real world.

                          I think the Fed will have to let US stocks
                          fall. Maybe try and slow the falls. This
                          could result in a series of waterfalls.

                          We live in interesting times 😉

                            EcB will nodoubt come out with it’s QE program
                            but that may no be until september and would
                            not be strong enough to support world stocks.

                            Enough chat for this month, time to trade.

                              Ftse has played with 6800 and may even have a small megaphone
                              pattern with the next test either 6750 or 6850.

                              In fact from 6800 you could keep adding 50pts either side to
                              draw the lines that bulls or bears want to achieve.

                              We ‘should’ go down, atleast today and maybe friday but of
                              late the bears have not tested the markets nerves which
                              is a real problem.

                              Let’s see which side of 6800 we spend most time for the
                              remainder of this week.

                              Never give up, never surrender.

                                Anyone short from Ftse 6800 is on a nice earner
                                as we near 6750 – a price and time zone that
                                could also play on Dax and US ooh.

                                Always best to trail stops, imho.

                                Never give up, never surrender.

                                  Hi Cimac

                                  It’s been a good week so far. Rode the drop yesterday after some on Monday.

                                  Then doubled up on new FTSE short and also spx

                                  Currenlty +15 on Spx and +40 on FTSE.

                                  Looking to close spx soon as closest gap is 1950 on charts.

                                  ftse as you say,also is near that make or break point. May wait a little longer and see if it cracks.
