that it would nigh on do it in one day!
There must be some bears sat on fat profits on this one,
I wonder how much of it they'll pocket before 1630.

Yes -as they say there is no rest for the wicked.
I own a petrol station /mot garage -So in the early morning go there from 6am to about 1pm then start on the markets.
I usually fing the Ftse too slow for me not enough volatility.
Any pointers for early morning markets would be great as i am just arranging for someone else to take care of my other business so i can do this full time.

I must admit I do prefer the slower market as I can't spend all my time watching what's going on. (I think that why I didn't get on with CFD's - I kept missing what was going on, and got very annoyed with it!)
Melnibone - 05 Nov 2003 18:18 - 31 of 36
No, I didn't short AVZ. I like to keep things simple and use
Trend/Support/Resistance.
Trend is currently up so I don't try and fight it.
What I look for is opportunities to buy stocks on support and
if I think everying is way over bought I sometimes look to short the
FTSE.
When the bear returns and the trend turns I'll be looking to short the
FTSE on the bounces and ignore stocks unless they get a big bounce for
no apparent reason except a Bear Squeeze.

The world and his dog are waiting for the US payroll numbers.
US markets are just range trading near their highs whilst they wait.
If they come in strong the DOW will head off towards 10,000
and take the S@P with it. There will be a big bear short
squeeze that will accelerate the process.
What do you think would happen to you if you happened to be
short a FTSE stock?
Unless your stop is one of the paid for guarenteed variety
you will be joining a long stack of closing Bears and buying
Bulls watching the price rocket with no sellers.
