10 minutes can feel like a life time! I get the feeling punters are flat going into the numbers so hopefully a nice clean reaction!

Answer.
Not at all at I uses stop limmits allways get filled, no slippage

Sell Orders at 5360 and every 5 point lower are now been submitted
These prices are futures currently 220 a point short, will have stops at 5372 just in case.
I use Xtader so when I feel we have falled enough I will pull all orders and press the button to close all postions
Looking good so far ?

How can you place Limit orders below price to short? You'll just get instantly filled but with a buffer - Is that your intention?

Dealer mate > May are long and have hedged postions with lumbar futures, the feeling is that the numbers are going to be good, ( buy the rumour sell the news )
If it dose not go my way hey little risk for large reward is worth it ..

Surely then, you still need someone to come in @ the bid to fill your short when the limit is placed, which is unlikely with such a hard fall...
So i guess you weren't filled?
A stop limit is just an order to PLACE a limit order when price reaches a certain level; and then you still need someone to come in @ the bid to hit your limit order - And i'm watching Time and sales...

well they looked like worse numbers to me but the market has ticked higher.
All out of the postion now Gladiator for a few points profit.
We saw a fall but it did not follow though, got the 5360 filled but noting else apart from the orders allready placed at as showen.
All done for the day , 30 mins trading is more than enough for me.
Good luck all

Yes this is a strong market, no follow through on the lows either ?
Going now mate have fun
Market ticked up just as the dollar weakened...
Thats right.. so i guess bad economic data weakens dollar which pushes up equities.. not going long though myself..I hate it when it's like this.
It is liquidity driven - I never trade against the data myself though- you never know when the taps go off!
Correct, the inverse relationship between the dollar and stock markets has been there since March. i.e. the dollar carry trade.
When the carry trade unwinds someday, the market is going to fall off a cliff
