      Short Ftse 6679

      That is the only trade, hence risk I have atm so I am
      going to give it time, maybe tuesday night, fwiw.

      Never give up, never surrender.

        It looks as though your 7000-7200 is going to come before 6000 cimac.

          Was always a risk.

          This current move only looks good for 6725 max so another dip
          of sorts should give a fresh look at the wave count etc.

          I am really surprised and would be even more surprised if we
          don’t get a good dip tomorrow.

          The main thing is not to get burnt if the market goes against
          your plans and that is the beauty of having your own form
          of analysis because part of it’s job is to tell you when you
          are wrong, a.s.a.p.

            Re Ftse 6000 or 7000-7200 which comes first.

            Atm it looks like the dip below 6100 was enough to
            complete the pattern ie 6000 was not required.

            IF Ftse goes to 7000-7200 without another look at
            atleast 6100 if not 6000 first, then for sure in the
            US the megaphone is not the pattern in play.

            Never give up, never surrender.

              Bottome line we need to see OE print as that should
              answer part of the Ftse and Dow pattern questions.

              By now we should not be surprised by anything this
              market does but we still are 🙁

                Today the market got excited about EcB qe talk, once again.
                By the time they do something, it will all be priced in.

                Look at Japan, foot on the qe gas pedal and foot on the sales
                tax brake pedal, at the same time. No wonder the public is
                not spending and has sent the country into recession.

                  If we don’t get some decent downside today then we must assume
                  that the big money is supporting a +ve OE this friday and we
                  should tailor any short positions with that in mind, imho.

                    Short Ftse 6679

                    Second half added at 6696

                    That is all I intend to risk and have the margin
                    to ride any storms, if I choose to.

                    That is me done trading and will just be watching
                    apart from moving moving stops as per normal.

                      Ftse rsi on a daily chart for the last year or so is in the zone
                      for a drop but we could still see 6725 or even 6750
                      just in this part of the move higher.

                      Sun is out, time to choose some wine for Christmas 🙂

                        Hey cimac,

                         

                        sat quietly watching this action, what are we now about a month from quad expiries, always flags a caution sign up for me when we get this close to expiry as they drive things one way or they other. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them drive this up for the next 3 weeks and then whallop…who knows though, crystal ball would be nice, but longer term patters mean this could be the US flagging…. as in a consolidation pattern…

                            Hi Ark,

                            Bulls will think they have ThanksGiving and Santa Rally
                            plus a few other seasonals on their side.

                            Bears should get mid November weakness but so far we
                            see not a sign. This OE week the stats and so the odds
                            favour down Mon & Tue and up Wed Thu Fri but
                            the bulls have stolen the bear’s days.

                            Never give up, never surrender.

                              I have read some analysis which says because the bulls
                              got mon tues the bears will get wed thu fri and more
                              with downside into mid December followed by a sharp
                              rally into late Jan – early Feb.

                              The downside I like the sound of but would want to
                              see it start before I signed upto that idea !

                              For now I will keep a small short running in the
                              background and then day trade boths ways.

                              Never give up, never surrender.

                                thought today would pop n drop , so wrong again.

                                no idea now , but doesn’t look finished .

                                 

                                lost count of the number of times I’ve seen ….”stocks rally on stimulus hopes ” -lol

                                  It will go down when we least expect it to just to clear out the
                                  long stops, then rally hard to clear out the short stops 😉

                                  Never give up, never surrender.
