Didn't quite take anything from that comment

Is ETX the same as Capital Spreads? I am also looking to shortcut experience especially bad ones through the combined knowledge of you guys who have been there and done it. That's what I see the Forum for, as a learning tool, a way to get from A to b only quicker, If I can learn from good...

Hi Darktone Thanks for your feedback. i am not sure if I was "Mugged off" on this one or not. It may just be case of having to have, in effect two stops, an opening stop and then replaced with a tighter stop say 10 mins later. All I'm really saying is, I tend to give the benefit of the doubt...

Hi Guys Getting more confused by the minute. Are we saying that IG are a pile of S_____ if so can we have an upto date survey on who is happy with their spreadbetting company and who isn't. Perhaps the Good, Bad and the Ugly, let's hope they look in some may change their ways. just looking for a...

Hi Guys Thanks for the feedback. I am understanding from your detective work, that had I been with IG index I wouldn't have been stopped out as opposed to Capital Spreads, who I currently use.

Hi Guys I am relatively new to spread betting, 6 trades under my belt so far. I wonder if someone could give me a little info. This morning I had a stop in a company called DIGNITY (DTY) FTSE350 stock. The stop was at 1455.4 and I was stopped out at 1453.1. So a bit of slippage there, the...

Hi Citymastertrader Yep, simply used as a filter is the idea, if it's a short set up then the reverse would be true. Thanks for your input

Hi Jason I use Sharescope Plus for all my trading ideas, not cheap and I don’t tend use a fraction of what it offers, but very comprehensive.

Hi Malaguti Thanks for the insightful comment. I think I should take a closer look. I think what you're saying is only short weak stocks in weak sectors and vice versa. Makes sense

No, sorry should have said reverse is true if shorting (selling).

Hi Guys Not sure if this is the correct place to post, but seeing as my interest is in spreadbetting, I assume it’ll be okay. Can I pick the brains of the more experienced amongst you, if I may? I have developed a trading methodology, which I stick to as rigidly as possible; however some days...

Hi Luckystrike23 Thanks for the link, saved as a PDF doc, will have a look at that shortly. Probably a Spreadbetting bias, looking at where it is. Anyway, thanks again, are you Spreadbetting yourself.

Hi Bhupe Thanks for your reply. Having read your feedback, to be honest I am none the wiser, that is not to say that your reply was not informative, it was. I have a stock outstanding at the moment, a spreadbet, it is carrying a nice profit at the moment, but in 20 days time results are...

Hi Guys Just a quick question for you experienced traders out there. I am new to spreadbetting and I am putting the finishing touches to my pop-up rule book, that is programmed into my excel spreadsheet. One of the rules is regarding trading around the results, or not trading around the...

Sorry wrong fiorum
