Being a gooner, I can't think of any worse than watching Man U play, except when they get beat

Crikey, don't wait for retirement. When you get to retirement you'll be waiting for something else. Do I need to elaborate?

The only clear tradable setup I can see is this: Long to 10960 or if 10900 broken then go short.

got some long yesterday evening and today morning... closed some @ 10960 and some still running....

@Jessi_trader it seems that you pyramid, is this the case for all trades that you place?

And if yes is there any particular pyramid position sizing strategy that you use, or is it down to whatever risk level you feel appropriate at the time?

buying point on DAX again...

 

[Jessi_trader]

you buy there between 30-40.. that's a golden line and less risk

Do you just buy/sell at your selected levels, or do you look for any kind of price action /candle pattern conformation?

Cheers

Candlestick is a key factor in entering the trades at key levels

@Jessi_trader you didn't really answer my question, it isn't the location where you are buying, its more related to the number of trades you are placing.

i.e. you don't seem to place just one trade at £5n/pt but seem to place multiple trades at £1n/pt - is this to do with your increasing comfort with taking on more risk at that level OR simply about maximizing profits or you find multiple trades easier to close out on a whim, rather than downsizing a position?

 

[Jessi_trader]

that's one Elliot Cycle complete...

This is casino rule of entering the trade...you will get the answer soon hopefully....

It won't even do that. Maybe it will follow the Dax this afternoon.

There has to be a reason why London won't play.

It did go negative.

"There has to be a reason why London won't play."
Theyre just a lazy bunch of t0ssers.
They trade for 1 hour in the morning and 30 minutes before they go home @ 4.30.
The rest is lunch or coffee breaks.
