Indeed from my experience CMC will obstruct customers from taking high profits. My knollage is suspending online trading to telephone only, then refusing verbal instructions to close position. When questioned denied everything for financial gain. I can not comment on my case with them.

Hi Crazy, Getting a trading partner would be difficult. Discipline is the key. Work out risk/reward levels with a maximum draw down per trade. Have rules that is tailored to your business model, example need to earn £200 each day or £800 a week ? Knowing your exit point before entry is my first...

well they looked like worse numbers to me but the market has ticked higher. Yes this is a strong market, no follow through on the lows either ? Going now mate have fun :)

All out of the postion now Gladiator for a few points profit. We saw a fall but it did not follow though, got the 5360 filled but noting else apart from the orders allready placed at as showen. All done for the day , 30 mins trading is more than enough for me. Good luck all Tom

How can you place Limit orders below price to short? You'll just get instantly filled but with a buffer - Is that your intention? I place stop limmits below the current price

10 minutes can feel like a life time! I get the feeling punters are flat going into the numbers so hopefully a nice clean reaction! Dealer mate > May are long and have hedged postions with lumbar futures, the feeling is that the numbers are going to be good, ( buy the rumour sell the news )...

Sell Orders at 5360 and every 5 point lower are now been submitted These prices are futures currently 220 a point short, will have stops at 5372 just in case. I use Xtader so when I feel we have falled enough I will pull all orders and press the button to close all postions :) Looking good so...

10 minutes can feel like a life time! I get the feeling punters are flat going into the numbers so hopefully a nice clean reaction! Just getting in short now and will have short limmit oreders to filll up should this tank.

if you place orders and the market whipsaws, you could get slippage? there was someone from another board who got filled 72 point away from order in DOW during the release of non-farm payrolls Answer. Not at all at I uses stop limmits allways get filled, no slippage

This is volitile, for me staying out untill the numbers at 1.30. Will have shorts placed on limmit orders every 5pts below each index's. If we fall it will be sharp and fast hoping to be out if the 1.30 trade bekfore 1.40 , wow a ten min trade, that a long time for me to hold a trade LOL
