Well - if its good enough for the FX boys........... :cheesy:

No harm in thinking positive is there - surely there must be other FTSE and DAX traders out there to keep a weekly thread going ?
 
Well may as well kick off............even though its a bit after the event.

I went short using the my trusty MA cross at 6502 on the future, closed one third at 90 for +12; stop at remainder at BE.
 
Anybody long?

I took a long position @ 91 on liffe futures. The euphoria for 13k on the Dow should pull us up but feel a bit nervous this high.

Trailing from 78.
 
Right thats me finished for the day. :cool:

Over 100 page views so obviously some interest in running an index thread; will give it a week and hopefully some of you people lurking out there may decide to contribute.

Did you manage to grab some points Ian ?

Hi, yes I made back the earlier losses and finished the day with some profit. Interesting to note that it failed to stay above the morning's break @approx 05.
 
Morning,

Short from 88 on the future (MA Cross and Pivot point); one third closed at 76 for +12. Stop on remainder at BE
 
Good trading Ziff, I missed the move but might get a chance if we bounce.
