Great effort Martini - so much appreciated. As bush and porky said, more than meeting our expectations. Have a well deserved bank holiday break.

Martini, It always occurred to me how much effort Croc put into providing us all with so much useful information and you have made a great effort here to, thankyou, i know it requires a bit of ftse stamina to keep it up and if you or someone else keeps it going then total respect to you and whoever. To fill Croc's shoes is never going to be easy.

morning all, thanks Martini.Great job.

Morning and thanks to Martini for keeping the thread going.
Lot of early movement in MKS..right or wrong I'm going to
try and ride it out until the initial panic subsides....
Good Luck all for the start of the new month.

any body have an epic for umbro.

Morning all

Morning all, finally brought the FTSE comp thread up to date - I don't envy you Martini, I find it a struggle sometimes and I have a fraction of what you have to do.

UMB is the EPIC for umbro (several ways of finding out, but I find quickest is to go to watch list, at the bottom click on find company and then type name of company)

mornimg all Martini can't possibly have time to read all these posts ..many thanks anyway

Martini you are doing a great job much appreciated.

Morning all.

Still favouring short the pops. As everyone points out, we are still
stuck in this approx 4400/4480 range. Note we still have not filled
the gap down open from early May. Check the close of the fifth candle
in May and the open on the sixth candle. So we could still see 4500
prior to any drop. (If we drop, that is. These are just opinions, not
predictions.)

Market is nervous and looking for a catalyst to move, IMHO. If a concensus
forms the move could be quite large as it gathers rapid momentum.
Rapid moves are normally down, not up. So an incorrect short will give you
time to operate a stop loss, where as you may not get the time with an
incorrect long. This will only affect geared day traders. LTBH players
should, as usual, be looking for a buying opportunity at a price they
are looking for in a well researched stock.

FTSE seems to be following the S&P futures.
