Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

Nick is very good on FTSE,
40 days to the US election. 6th nov. i think they want this market higher, need to work out exactly the day they calculate the fund performance for those 401ks. i would guess pressure on the manipulators to get it bid up.

today the market absorbed a dreadful durable goods number, think the sellers are exhausted,

Certainly pitched higher across the board in last 15 minutes......

Entering Shorts as of now FTSE Dax and Cac...........

5798 7326 3456
 
FTSE for Friday , its 88% bearish.

Dec SP500 futures trigger level for bullishness was 1432.2 its now 1439.1 (mid from ig)
 
Jungerns, how wide are your stops ?

Please dont follow my example as my style defies any rulebook, but for example those new Dax Ftse and Cac trades were opened with an initial Stop of a 100 each.............
If you ask for a reason I would say because I only trade in one direction. That direction is down but I will let trades go way past normal parameters that most guys employ..........Remember I'm not looking at charts at all (bar highs/lows) and am working only off sentiment news feeds patterns and probably experience....
Occasionally I get do get caned....

Just having a look at the figures and those entries of before would perhaps have now stopped out on some other Traders Platforms ??
I'd consider them hardly other than even, give or take....
