Wouldn't have thought so Kim - oil price barely seems to have moved. My suspicion (& it's no more than that) is that maybe there is something in these bid rumours - or at least they are supporting the LLOY market. I don't see why else buyers should come rushing back after trickling away yesterday. Either way, I''m not confident at the moment of the price going much lower soon, so I'm out.khi said:
I do think there are businesses where the oil price impact may not yet be fully factored in. I'm looking at EXL short - but no entry today. Weekly MACD suggests sentiment on this one is turning negative.

Anyway, I really dont see much change from what I said yesterday, however, it seems quite possible that we have found support, would like to see today's close then possibly in long Monday

Took loss on MKS short @ 362. Opened @ 353.5 on 12/8. Was expecting downtrend to develop but this hasn't happened. Slight -ve sentiment yesterday hasn't followed through to today: plenty of buyers coming out of the woodwork, so accepted my loss before going through stop.
Well, completed my housecleaning for today: closed HMSO long @ 876.75, prior to results on Tuesday. Opened @ 874.7 on 16/8.
So that leaves my position as: Long CPI, SBRY(50%), TATE; Short BATS, DXNS, EMG, HNS, IHG, JMAT, SGE(50%)
Good Bank Holiday all!

Morning all, hope you all had a relaxing long weekend.
I remain long in:
BLND Bought @ 861 on 24 Aug stop now @ 865 so some profit locked in.
PAG Bought @ 487 stop @ 476 which is about to get filled for a loss
IRV Bought @ 345 and going nowhere!
I will be going long on UKX very short term if we hold a few mor minutes above 5260
Nothing really interesting on the radar at the moment
Good trading

A while ago you said that there were many lurkers watching the action on this thread who did not post. I'm one, but thought that I may as well throw my bit in, so here goes.
I swing trade for a few days, if necessary, and leave the computer for several hours at a time.
Last Friday I shorted GLH at 837, don't always use stops which was just as well because of the spike to 850 in the afternoon- so am still in that one.
This morning 1109 CET shorted Barclays at 555.5.

Hi Ale,
Although I do not deal in AIM stocks I had a look at the charts and yes, it is remarkably level.
IMHO there could be a move brewing to take it higher again but personally I would wait for some action to redefine the trend before diving in.

#BG, me too, that is probably the kiss of death!
UKX, no, unfortunately. I do not hold index positions overnight and the rise today was very quick and I expected a pull back. Many people go contrary to the opening pop, I personally do not.
Actually, I could have entered UKX at 5070 but did not. Was fighting with learning Tradestation and missed it!
Yesterday, closed BLND for a very nice profit. PAG got stopped for a loss.
That leaves me in BG & IRV which has gone nowhere!
Lets see what else transpires today. Got VED in the sights but would like to see 560 before I enter
