Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

Dax this morning!
First half hour no one buys, second half hour no one sells, third half hour no one buys or sells.

WTF!

A 100 point reversal on the dax is not unusual so I guess 12,120 is the target. Still 40 points left on the table for anyone who wants it.

The ftse just did 20 points in 6 minutes! What a day.

Nearly there - get ready to close and short.
Its only the dax going up like this.

Funny, because the Euro is going up as well and yet some people say indices and currency are reverse correlated.

 

[postman]

I'm going short dax at 12,115

Closed my Long.

 

[postman]

Dax 12,118 Thats 100 points and a big F*ck you to weak shorts.

Good short, but might only be to knock out those chasing longs, then the next stage of buying can begin.

Well, Im still here sitting on my sofa with my coat on waiting for price to come to pappa, although Ill admit taking longer than I thought, so maybe today or tomorrow we can get up there, if not Ill still be patient, well ill have to be, as Im not getting forced to do anything.

There is a bigger double bottom in play now, this should give us a vibe on which way retail will be trading, then its a case if stalking their tracks.

My MO this year was for fewer trades on bigger size, but didnt think I would be waiting this long!

Having said that, we are not in any old average scenario at present, so must adapt or relinquish.

You know that taking +50 is always the right thing to do.

 

[postman]

I'm out for +47.

I do tend to think there is more downside tonight, but hey its Friday, is Paddy's day, early doors. Good weekend to anyone who's reading.

Construction permits declined 6.20% in February to 1.21 million, which may be a sign that higher interest rates are actually driving Americans to rethink their plans for housing.

Dont know about you guys but my spread bet company dropped the price of the dax by 100 points from the close then move it back up again within 1 minute last night.
Any other horror / crime stories to share.
