Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[postman]

Clearly 24880 is the line the dow cannot cross, so I'm long 24890 looking for 25,000 + tomorrow.

Just taken +95 on this why take an unnecessary risk.

There will be other days.

when this goes a lot lower A LOT LOWERT they will treat me with the respect that i'm owed..

"Keynes soon learned that short-term currency trading on high margin, using only his long-term economic predictions as a guide, was foolhardy."

"Keynes was thus able to scrape together the money he needed to continue trading. He had learned a valuable but painful lesson – markets can act perversely in the short-term. Of this, he later famously commented:

“The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.”"

I think the dow may be near the bottom for today.
It was 24900 when I was typing its gone up 35 points in as many seconds.

Might have to wait for the late Friday rip to smash 25,000

i might have played out my welcome on this short trade, that's ok.

had it in the bag, but had to shoot for the fences. no cover yet, but the longs are trying to gain traction.

this just felt like the top to me, so i went with it.

I'm only a little bit gutted today... For sure I would have added to that trade and got taken out earlier but I still see Dow 30k this year
