Hi - 4537 for May please.

MAY 4100

4430 please

May , 4270 , please ,
one of these days my bearishness will come good :-))

Chart shows Elliot expanding flat correction (maybe????)

I think the market is due a short correction down - i think 4380 will be somewhere near - hope it is no worse than this!
S

4495 please

4355 ta

4469 for May, please.

Just over 11 hours to go before I stop taking entries for May.

4532 for May please lw

The May competition closed at 0800.

The consensus view is 4400!

The number of entries for May (71) is down on the best month previously
- April (73). I also would like to welcome all the first timers taking part.

MoneyAm give the winner an excellent prize, so it'd be great if everyone could "have a go".

Entries are taken for the following month at any time up during the previous month and of course you can change it anytime
before the competition closes.

Good luck everyone.

Congrats again to SueHelen - enjoy the adulation (and the vouchers)!

4525 for June please.
