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

Santa is in town.

When you smiling when your smiling the Whole World smiles with you .......repeat repeat.

i did if you read, but went long rather prematurely
i suspect those long positions will (eventually) turn in profits, but am certainly not prepared to average down
