FTSE + FTSE 250 - consider trading (FTSE)     

cynic - 20 Oct 2007 12:12

rather than pick out individual stocks to trade, it can often be worthwhile to trade the indices themselves, especially in times of high volatility.

for those so inclined, i attach below charts for FTSE and FTSE 250, though one might equally be tempted to trade Dow or S&P, which is significantly broader in its coverage, or even NASDAQ

for ease of reading, i have attached 1 year and 3 month charts in each instance

Looks like your 1100 prediction for the DOW is faltering thanks for the tip i have shorted it. In profit now, owe you a drink.

Chris Carson - 26 Sep 2011 17:58 - 6819 of 21973

Bernard buy a pair of reading glasses with your winnings and read post 6805 again. It was a question not a forecast. Just closed a Dollar Index Long, take a look at the chart and pay attention :O)
