[Dinos]

Think big dog! 16 600

Yes sir boss , waiting for a fully confluenced signal to take the trade off, rather than the part signal I went in on.

I'm sure the multi billionaires around the world read this thread and move the markets around just to F@ck with our heads.

just looked back over 8 dow intraday charts.

dow puts in high first 60mins then rest of day aimlessly wandering

Not the same level of buying as there was on the Dax this morning.
Just drifting down at the moment like you say.
Mind you its the Dow, it could drift down 500 points then come back up again. Box of frogs.

so we can assume the high gets put in first 60mins, intraday volume can not surmount the power of the opening volume.

FTSE closes unch exactly what the futures had price in before its sojourn to 6643

the ftse futures implied a high of around 6670 before 18th april (3rd friday in april)

I dont think theres any rhyme or reason to it, people come along and speculate, they buy a position and put in a stop or sell a position and put in a stop and the algos move the prices round until the stops get taken out and the MM's make a profit.
Theres no justification for the moves over the past few days, weeks, months.

Algos or no one in this world knows for sure that where market will head. They can only anticipate based on the information they have.
Algos or no one in this world can control the market because they cannot control the world events, nature and disasters.

Events around the world dont move markets like they used to. You only have to look at Russia invading the Ukraine to see that.
20 years ago the markets would have tanked, this time it was a mere hiccough. So where is the money to be made, its in the wiggle. Move it up move it down.

Just checked out the ftse daily candle on sharescope. Worth a look and lots of volume :arrowd:

I do not agree becuase every one in the world knew that there won't be any war. Moreover, Ukraine never countered and never used aggressive language.

If you remember what happend during 9/11 , not very far then you will see how world event can change the market. Another example was lehman brothers, that was also an event.
