    For the record I think we will see it go down further once US opens, risk off time. But I'm not hanging around to see it. Good luck all.

    Hi all, Been a while, hope you are all well. I've not been trading recently, except the odd position on gold. Got day off tomorrow so will be around and may dip my toe back in. Hope you all saw Super Leeds beat Everton the other night too :-)

    Well that's more like it... two trades today. One 5 point winner and this one that is still open. Stop is at break even (with a little breathing room in case of any slippage). I'm planning to hold this into tomorrow hoping that Ben dissapoints big time... my gut feeling is he will. My plan was...

    2 trades for me today as well.. both 2 point winners. Action still very thin so trying to just take whatever I can get.

    I'm getting pretty fed up of this 'bad news is good news because we get more QE that we crave' nonsense. Was 5 points onside and back to break even in no time.. pfff. Still in the trade, just looking for a couple of points from here and will call it a day.

    3 trades today... scratched 2 of them and settled for 2 points on the last one. Very slow and boring as you expect on a bank holiday I suppose.

    Well last night/today's trade turned out to be profitable, a nice 11 points winner. But it wasn't looking too great this morning. Went short last night at 1411 after it bounced off the 1414 level, it came close to hitting my stop this morning and then I got some luck with the figures today.. and...

    Finally some volume and volatility...just closed half the position and stop to break even on the rest. If we get to 1412 I'll start trailing the stop to lock in 5 points on the remainder at least. I think this has a lot further to go yet, but we will see.

    Looks like I called that wrong. Oh well, lets see what tomorrow brings (hopefully some damn volume)

    This market is so slow... I went short this morning at 1400.75 and it was moving along nicely, then pop (while I was in the gym). So I'm a couple of points offside but I'm not worried. I have a feeling this will drop off a bit before the close, perhaps hit 1400 level yet again. We'll see... I'll...

    Seems there is quite a high correlation between trading and divorce if this thread is anything to go by, I better warn my girlfriend now! On a serious note, good luck getting that worked out. Hating this low volume.. I'm having a tough month. Had 2 good trades today which mean I'm finally up...

    why aren't traders making 200 % a year?

    Its funny how every week is the same isn't it? Makes it so easy for us millionaire traders. (you'll get no real answer because its a stupid question that has been asked countless times before in different ways)
