Thanks again. I asked 'cos I was short from the open and got
stopped out on the pullback - was wondering if I could have set
stop more intelligently.

Not in yet today (off to play golf in an hour) so just watching.

Been away seeing my mother in Dorset and then took 4 hours to travel back to the Cotswold yesterday (so no trading)-and I thought everyone had gone back to work on Monday!

Question: How did you arrive at the Fib level 4173. I was looking at move from 4044.9 (6/08) to 4286.9 (19/08) = 242 points. Using .38, .5 and .618 I got 4194, 4166 and 4137.
Missed this morning as had power failure in Cotswold at 8.15am. Obviously now seen continuation of late trend yesterday.

I only use fibs againt waves.
so the start at 4045 had been corrected before the big move got underway.
so my low was 4060

I've got Mytrack running side by side with IB and the volume reading is completely different.There have been 3 huge volume spikes on Mytrack,none on IB.

with virtually no follow through on the open,
ftse seems to have spent all morning gently falling to fill its gap.
That's now done.
so, eyes down.
Game on !

hmmm
it may just want to retest around 200 again.
if it holds we may get a good move up as that
might be a 1/2,1/2 and elliott followers will know what that portends ?

was talking about flyahoo - course you may be a fan of
random walk theory!

lol
perhaps if I wave my magic mouse across the page it will
influence the future.

not a believer in random walk or chaos.
but 'collapsed wave functions' seem promising.
