DOW JONES @ LIVECHARTS

lol. no nothing like that. i think maybe greenspan will be talking (nearly always to go short then he does). zarif might know when he comes on.
snoball - your a bit speedy with the replies today! no sooner have i sent a message have you replied.

DJ futures are currently trading about 40 down from close

little woman - gdp figues were lowere than expected. made a quick buck on the original drop on 53pts. not sure what to do now.

I'm still long........for now.

I'm long, but have bought more with each drop and sold on the rises, so managed to (just) keep ahead so far.

nice going lw.

It only works if it continues sideways, within a good price range.

Thought this was interesting:

1512 GMT (Dow Jones) LONDON--FTSE 100 treads water at 4411.9. Trades in a tight range after Wall St opened on a slightly downbeat note. University of Michigan sentiment reading of 103.8, Chicago PMI reading of 65.9, both slightly better than hopes, help prevent FTSE from sliding further. "With minimal UK company reporting over the last few days, we inevitably been left to watch the political circus at Westminster, but with some solid corporate reporting due next week, there&aposs universal relief amongst traders that we can get back to working with substance, not spin," says trader."

i still havent opened up another position yet. not sure what to do mixed sentiment because of last trading day of jan, gdp figures below expected, possible profit taking so i would assume downwards today but its just too sideways. wondering if traders think markets have dropped enough already this week.
will watch for a while i think

My big worry is that every time it tests 10450 it's carry on down! Although so far I've well enough that it'll have to drop a long way before it wipes out the profits so far.

very slow boring day on the dow. feels more like the ftse.
i got an up and down open and see if i can walk away with a small profit today. if not, i am sure come monday something will happen.

have a good weekend guys.

javid

you too, javid.

Wall street should be back from lunch soon. Maybe it will liven up then.

What I need now is a closing rally to 10500.

i dont mind if it goes up or down as long as it gets of its arse and does something!

:-)

I have a single contract DJ left @ 10232! I think I'm going to leave it open over the weekend unless we get that rally!

how dull?

Looks like we got the rally!

How did you get 10232 lw!
Nice one!

I'm leaving my long open.
Nite y'all.

Raised the stop & was promptly stopped out.
I think using stops is a guaranteed way to lose the trade.


G'day y'all. Trin's a bit bearish isn't it?
