Well I've not known what to do for the best with the Europeans this morning, so instead have been running Dollar longs on USD/CAD and AUD/USD.

edit: Just closed the Loonie ..... in 2 minds on the Aussie.

Stuck with cable last night, and still running it.

chocolat - 23 Mar 2005 13:44 - 3799 of 11056

Just closed it all again 18710 - time to stand aside and see how the land lies later. :)

Bloody hell, what happened to /Y - I opened a short at 19870 this morning, went out for a few hours, and it's 100 lower ! Not complaining of course. Was that just the CPI data, or has something else added to the weakness.

Thanks Hil, belatedly, for the heads up on the /Y opportunity.

chocolat,
Drinks on you then..:-) well done! must be at least 3X my puny effort
Stopped out for +100 cable short on the back of sacrificial long EUR/USD, -30. I love it when a plan comes together...

EDIT.

Now home from work

BUGGER! Counting unhatched chickens is clearly a talent, a spike which isn't on the charts I can view from work killed my cable short for a loss.....gutted!

Perhaps I should re-phrase, I'd love it if a plan came together...:-((

Only possible saviour is EUR/CAD short @ 821, fingers crossed it will save me from my own big mouth.

Email en route.

choccy well done .

hodgins - 23 Mar 2005 18:59 - 3804 of 11056

almost time for falling knives?. 3 down days, some consolidation due before it makes up its mind if it's a continuation pattern still

chocolat - 23 Mar 2005 19:25 - 3805 of 11056

Sorry to hear that Stormie, and thanks mos, but it was more of a battle this morning between crashes.
18700 was my target - but I started another short when I got home at 18713. There is no plan this time :S

STORMCALLER - 23 Mar 2005 19:55 - 3806 of 11056

chocolat,
So was I, what a moron! In return for your kind words, and in lieu of recent events, I think it only fair to warn you I also have cable short.....are you really sure you want to do this...:-)

hodgins - 23 Mar 2005 21:26 - 3807 of 11056

small long with 30 stop from 675, last line in the sand, due a bounce even though I am sure it's going to 510 after that.

chocolat - 23 Mar 2005 21:37 - 3808 of 11056

Certainly looking that way. Took some off at 670 earlier, but I'll leave the rest for now.

edit: added at 18700

cunningham - 24 Mar 2005 16:47 - 3811 of 11056

mos, do you have the link to the web site?

Seymour Clearly - 24 Mar 2005 17:43 - 3812 of 11056

Cunningham, click on the link to the BBC website, then there's a link bottom right of that page which takes you there.

cunningham - 24 Mar 2005 19:35 - 3813 of 11056

Found it, thanks.

STORMCALLER - 25 Mar 2005 01:33 - 3814 of 11056

Extraordinary week, managed to stop myself out of big gain, and managed to lose money on a cable short, as an aside also managed to lose 15 points on a dow short, and make 35 points on a dow long, funny game, bloody glad it's the weekend..

Sue 42 - 29 Mar 2005 18:36 - 3815 of 11056

haven't looked in for ages - but where are all those nice links? when did they go? Where can I find the daily cable pivots???

chocolat - 29 Mar 2005 19:30 - 3816 of 11056

Ahhh - cheers whoever did that :))
