Morning all.

Morning peoples,

Would have thought the Dow would end up with the Fed results.

Just goes to show you can never predict a market.

How about a riot?

Morning all

gone back to spreadbetting the UKX

managed to close a short ave +45
now long

LW, you sb'rs must have nerves of steel!!

I wish!

No just not watching! Keeping a eye on it, but not glued!

Lost the previous 10 days profits on Friday in just over an hour getting the DJI wrong. Didn't let it "settle" so switched too early.

Just sticking to UKX, - making sure I don't use all my margin - in case I make a mistake. Which of course I do from time to time. But if I can make less mistakes and get it right more often

Morning All,

Market seems to take 1 step forward and 2 steps back at the moment.

Of course I'm only betting with "pennies"

LW, It all sounds hazardous but I hope you keep getting it right :-)
