Morning all,
FTSE straight down to S1 and now trading in a 10 point band
just above S1 as it decides what to do.
AVZ below S2 and trying to hold the old 400p support.
In case anyone doesn't know, this stock has exposure to the dubious
fund dealing that Spitzer is kicking up about in the States.
There's some red flags been raised in it's fund trading that
will attract Spitzer's interest like blood to a shark.

FTSE now at PP.
Possibility of it trying to fill the gap open to 4376.

Gap just about filled.
Players left behind on Friday can now come in to play.
Have to see which way the market wants to go now.

Just got back after a bit of grocery shopping.
Don't seem to have missed much, seems like it's
justing dancing round the PP maypole.
Not really worth trying to squeeze a few points.
May end up on the wrong side of a decent move.
Coffee time.

Suggestions for a description of the markets lack of movement
outside a small range today to(hopefully) bring a tiny smile
to you guys/gals:
Treading water in a puddle
Peddling a broken exercise bike
'Rally' driving on the back of an AA relay truck
I will spare you any more!!!
Have a good day folks..
