Zarif got a feeling you've closed ur longs and gone short...could turn out to be a good day Zarif.
If Dow drops back later to 9700 or tests water under 9690 may leave shorts open for tomorrow...Im thankful to DOW giving me 2 opportunities this afternoon to close-off fridays longs at 9750...Thanks DOW...!

Jules i have got one long and one short open at present.
Re:Snoball
Before the market opened the trin was around 1.83 or 1.93 if memory serves right.
It seems stagnant and bobbing around 9719 +/- 10. dec dow
I think u r right the market might end up giving us a good day.
Will look at shorting /longs as the opps arise

Snowball im also short from 9751...the last hour is always decisve move for the DOW...tmorrow I see the ftse up am and some of the techies also...dont hold any...
Shorted Hilton AND TOMKINS...today. Tech stocks I just want to watch at the moment, some rising on little volume...retail investors buying on downside, but they could easily go down 5/10 % if US market turns...
Since starting CFD's only seen a rising market so far...I hope the South spirral begins soon... lots to learn...but it must be a pleasure to see DOW dive 150 points and not cringe...
nite all..!

I'm hoping the Nov future hits 9700 tomorrow, Jules.
I've noticed that when these retracements happen there is a strong
down day like Friday, followed by a bounce like today and then, often
there is another down day of at least 50 points.
But, of course, it doesn't happen every time.
If it doesn't break below 9700 tomorrow I expect it to reverse again.
But what do I know.

snoball,
hopefully right call, there must have been some new highs from todays rise...but profiteering has to take place big soon...the dow rise has been meteoric, 500-600 points in 2 weeks or about that...has to fall back big short term..
Just feel it's too soon for it to hit the 10000 mark...running away without foundation...

hi everyone:-))
closed the last long off late last night at 9780 (opened at 9713) ie 67 pts gain and made a tidy sum.
I opened a short dec DOW at 9774.
What do you think we are in for today?
My opinion is that it is going to trek north then there is going to be decline and support of levels and consolidation.
Jules - I agree with your analysis that it has gone fwd too quick.The market is ahead of itself and there is going to be some serious retracement and profit taking.
So be careful -let the market dictate our actions dont pre-empt any moves.

blimey, zarif. How did you get 9713?
edit: Just checked the futures chart. It hit 9710 around 2pm.
It missed my target by 10 points. Damn.

Snoball I should have mentioned it was on the Dec Dow. and in reality reached near enough to 9702 but i guess i bottled out.
How are your trades the trin was around 0.96 at pre-open 2.15pm gmt and steady around there.So suggests bullish area despite mixed market
I have got 2 longs open at present and hope can fulfill them before day is out.

I've moved my stop down to break even as I don't think this looks
bearish enough.
Let the market decide.

Hello

Phew lucky closed my longs out lastnight for 48.00 profit.
I took a short out opening at 9720.
What do you reckon it is going to fall to as the ftse is -100 almost.
