Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

Dow has gone loopy (+.69%) compared to S&P (+.34%)

Running those stops in double quick time.

While Americans indexes corrected (the S & P fell 1.60%), European markets extended the recent rise. Although the overperformance of European stocks can be justified in the light of various factors (improving economic outlook, monetary policy of the ECB, the positive effects of the oil drop and the Euro, etc., a difference of behavior between the European and American markets is not sustainable. There is a historical correlation between these markets, and the differences of merely casual and short-lived trend. Thus, a convergence between the two markets is expected, although it is not yet apparent whether this convergence will be made by a rise in US markets or a correction of the European markets. Not disregarding the factors that have driven the European indexes (and which shall remain valid even before a correction), it is more likely at this stage to be the European indexes to correct.

Any evidence to support that?

May be bit of compromise... Americano will rise a bit and Euro will fall a bit 50:50 deal :LOL:
 
Mmm, ftse been trading weak all day vs Dow so it's been redressing the balance a bit. i'm away so haven't got the ftse/Dow difference to hand over the last few weeks, but there's always a nice touch to be had intraday when the days difference extreme snaps back.
