      Spring is in the air.

      Never give up, never surrender.

        From last friday we had a ‘h’ to ‘l’ call for today and
        that has indeed given a drop. Now will or when will
        the market find support is the question.

        Never give up, never surrender.

          Ftse found early support and then the rally has taken the
          old dog past first resistance circa 6125, a bullish sign.

          Let’s see if the US can rally off the late lows of yesterday.

          Anything can happen but this may just be the early signs
          of the bullish March that we expected.

          Never give up, never surrender.

            Last Christmas in the UK was for many funded by credit
            and it looks like personal debt continues to grow.

            Unemployment has fallen but that has been done by an
            increase in low paid jobs, some even self employed.

            Whitehall just talks about more public spending cuts
            even though data points to this slowing economic
            activity within a low growth economy.

            Here we have a recipe for what could well bring the
            stock market back down after one more fling higher.

            All, imho.

            Never give up, never surrender.

              looks like they hit the low in owl-time,up over 20 handles now.whether they can perform the old “pull the tablecloth” trick again and run it down again later,its time to buy the dips once more..on a seperate note,i cant believe you got hilary clinton and donald trump fighting out the nominations for president in pole,quite alarming really.i thought trump would be a sort of raving lord sutch vote,but the mans actually in with a big shout! whatever next…

                Fwiw my analysis of the positive and negative signals for March
                gives 1st 10th 24th 31st as positive days, no negative days.

                Hence although markets will retreat on many days the bias is
                very bullish.

                If and only if March plays out like this then I will not be
                short this market very much and not in normal trade size.

                My plan would be to duck and dive a few daily points and
                be ready to short what should be a notable ‘h’ pt.

                Never give up, never surrender.

                  Entered short Dow 16900 – stop 17040 – limit 16669
                  for the memsaab

                  I am out for the day so no trades for me.

                  Never give up, never surrender.

                    Away from home being wined and dined.

                    Ftse has retreated in line with expectations
                    but the US markets are yet to join in.

                    Never give up, never surrender.

                      Back at the coal face after wine and food from memsaab’s
                      trade( was stopped out on the regain of 16800 fwiw ).

                      So far we have had a potential Ftse lod and hod and we
                      wait to see which if any will be wrong by the close.

                      US first hour seems key … Dow may have a go at 16900

                      Never give up, never surrender.

                          Dow rth has now got back up to the recent ooh level circa 16920

                          As we are in the mid point of two positive days, could the
                          bears control friday and monday. They may not get many
                          chances this month.

                          Never give up, never surrender.

                            I am going to be out during NFP so no trades for me.

                            Memsaab thinks the Dow will hit 17000 rth or ooh no matter
                            and will short it if we hit that level in NFP fun time.

                            Risky to short this market in March but if you are going
                            to then getting in at a new wave / move ‘h’ does afford
                            some much needed protection. One would hope.

                            Never give up, never surrender.

                                  Dow rth has now got back up to ooh circa 17025

                                  Small short for the brave.

                                  Have a great weekend, I will be out on monday
                                  so good luck to everyone trading.
