An excellent finish to an informative set of articles, FTSE Beater.
I hope these remain available for many moons.
The examples have clarified so much for me. I was thinking of signing up for one of the various courses around but I'll spend some more time in T2W before taking that idea further. And the Finspreads suggestion is great (thanks Jimmy1jag)

Indeed a good finish to this series of (necessarily) short articles. I have taken this strategy for my starting point and have since developed it further to include some indicator analysis as well... in my view a must! Not everyone uses indicators, but I prefer to and find it helps ME.

Anyway, FTSE Beater, many thanks for your work putting this together.

Jimmy

Hi Ale

Hi Jimmy

Brilliant - By all means, take the strategy, play around with it until it suits YOU!!! and at the end of the day - what ever strategy you use MUST be one that your comfortable with.

Excellent series, Mark.

I relate completely to the need to set stop-losses, and take small losses.

Well-illustrated with good examples.

I came across what happened to RB. yesterday and thought it might serve as an example to
the posts warning on the placing of stops. Its difficult to know where to put them, but put them you must!

RB. had results yesterday. I have not looked at them but it caused a spike.

Hi to all
Very useful and practical, thanks Mark.
I have only one question why your target is on 1570 (part 3, page 3, long from 1547).
I don’t see any resistant there.
Thanks once again.
