FTSE + FTSE 250 - consider trading (FTSE)     

cynic - 20 Oct 2007 12:12

rather than pick out individual stocks to trade, it can often be worthwhile to trade the indices themselves, especially in times of high volatility.

for those so inclined, i attach below charts for FTSE and FTSE 250, though one might equally be tempted to trade Dow or S&P, which is significantly broader in its coverage, or even NASDAQ

for ease of reading, i have attached 1 year and 3 month charts in each instance

Ultimatly FTSE should fall next week to test support at 6400... IMO...

TSLA
banked an adequate profit here
sp has to be very vulnerable especially as it is highly hyped on the basis that the company is hoping to blow china open with its cars

Plateman - 14 Mar 2014 15:04 - 14774 of 21973

79.9 Chris as against 81.9 expected.

cynic - 14 Mar 2014 15:05 - 14775 of 21973

sticky - TSLA is a US stock and i don't think there's a thread for it as most don't or can't trade there

skinny - 14 Mar 2014 15:05 - 14776 of 21973

Shortie - no, I'm baby sitting today so a bit preoccupied.

House builders opening 2 to 4% higher......... HelptoBuy 2020

jimmy b - 17 Mar 2014 08:12 - 14783 of 21973

Yes thats what Osbourne said on Andrew Mar Sunday morning. I bought TW. when (Credit Suisse) said the ride for housebuilding shares was over last week .

Seymour Clearly - 17 Mar 2014 08:34 - 14784 of 21973

I so nearly sold TW. last week after a ride from 70p. Sometimes lethargy is rewarding :-)
