stockbunny - 15 Dec 2003 15:40 - 39 of 61

The FTSE is dropping back..

apple - 15 Dec 2003 15:41 - 40 of 61

I now know why OXB keeps going up, see news.

I would like to know how the big buyers found out over the last couple of weeks before us small sharehoders.

Up again today by 4.7%



Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 15:42 - 41 of 61

FTSE getting progressively weaker as the important
two hours of the day(when the US is open), draw towards
the close. Meanwhile the S@P is trying to level out.

Could even see a flat finish at the 4347 area.

Melnibone

stockbunny - 15 Dec 2003 15:49 - 42 of 61

Which would be a slight let-down after the morning, thought
the Saddam euphoria (and if that's not spelt right phooey)
would be worth more of a prolonged FTSE hike - if it only ends
up a 6 hour wonder...well...pass me the wine bottle!!

Fundamentalist - 15 Dec 2003 15:55 - 43 of 61

thanks LW, closed out the Mar future for +11, still hold for the long term in the ISA, mainly for the divi though some capital growth would also be nice

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 15:57 - 44 of 61

Interesting, MTN has found a pair of lead diver's boots
and is now down 6%, whilst MKS is slowly clawing back
its losses as the FTSE drifts lower.

I wonder if all you MKS Bulls have got MKS right?
You are certainly doing OK on LLOY.

Melnibone.

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 16:02 - 45 of 61

30 minutes left and 5 points to go for a flat finish.

What do we do tomorrow if the S@P ends flat
but above the 1074/1075 level?

Decisions, decisions. Lol.

Melnibone.

little woman - 15 Dec 2003 16:02 - 46 of 61

Apple - maybe they have been hanging out at Kings College London! If you want to know whats going on, get to know someone at the company "socially" or some companies are happy to give out information - but you have to ask the right questions. Don't just wait for them to supply it!

little woman - 15 Dec 2003 16:03 - 47 of 61

I think everyone is trying to be sensible!

stockbunny - 15 Dec 2003 16:18 - 48 of 61

Well that's it..a disappointing end to the day seems likely, so
I'm off, good luck to everyone!!!

little woman - 15 Dec 2003 16:38 - 49 of 61

I seem to have lost access to everything except the BB!

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 16:42 - 50 of 61

It's not that disappointing stockbunny, if the market had
took off it would have set it up for a big fall.

I was going to post a 5 day chart here, but apparently
you now have to pay to use the charts on this site, or so
the pop-up is telling me.

Anyway, take a look at the 5 day chart at the top of this thread.
We've had a double bottom on Thursday and Friday and are trying
to move away from them.
As I said before, if the S@P stays above the 1074/1075 level, then these
double bottoms will give a good support area.

Seeing that you now have to pay to use the charts, can anyone point
me to a link where it will show me how to post a chart from another site,
the same as zarif does on the Dow thread?


Melnibone.

little woman - 15 Dec 2003 16:44 - 51 of 61

I pay for level 2 subscription so should have access to most things - but currently I'm getting the same as you! I think its not a subscription problem!

ThePlayboy - 15 Dec 2003 16:44 - 52 of 61

TUE FTSE PP

R2 4414
R1 4381
PP 4364
S1 4331
S2 4315

Close was on Mon pp after loosing 6.1 pts in the auction! 2 day ftse chart still just in uptrend, third higher low, 4345 brk down for continued weakness, still in the uptrend channel (just) ftm, Dj weak into close so I now go for up this evening IMHO, will see!

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 16:47 - 53 of 61

I don't know what's going on here, but it's also telling
me now that I can't access the Stockwatch without paying.

Some kind of screw-up by the looks of things.

It'll be stopping me posting next!

Oi! I heard that! Less of the cheers please.

Melnibone.

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 16:50 - 54 of 61

Thanks for the reply little woman, our posts crossed.

Melnibone.

Douggie - 15 Dec 2003 16:51 - 55 of 61

looks to me like FTSE bled in sympathy with Sadam rather than rejoyced about .... :-((

Maggot - 15 Dec 2003 17:46 - 56 of 61

Melnibone. Several posters on the Traders thread have had intermitent messages telling them they can't access something they've actually paid for, including me. Moneyam are trying to rectify it. I open a new window in Internet Explorer, go into Moneyam, log on again, and this always works for me.

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 18:15 - 57 of 61

Thanks for that Maggot, I'll give it a whirl.

Melnibone.

Melnibone - 15 Dec 2003 18:38 - 58 of 61

It works, I'm back in.

The following chart is what I was trying to say, and looking
at TP's last post TP is seeing the same thing.

The last red candle seems to be missing for some reason, so
you'll have to imagine it. :-)

You can clearly see the double bottom on Wed/Thur followed
by a trend channel up.
You can near enough stick a ruler along the tops and the bottoms.
If TP is correct for a strong US finish then the pattern has
a good chance of repeating tomorrow.

If the FTSE had roared off today it would have broken the pattern
and put everyones plans in disarray.

It would have most certainly precipitated a steep decline
and with the momentum that it would have gathered it would have
likely dropped through the main 9 month trend channel.
