Evening all. Updated UKX PnF chart.
Very close to a 4500 triple top. Last time we were over 4500, it was a double top that set
a Bull Trap which resulted in 5 box reversal.
Rightly or wrongly, still sticking with my 'short the Index pops' with the occasional Blue Chip
Divi paying intraday long if a beaten down opportunity presents itself.
This strategy worked fine last week. Made sure I was flat prior to the jobs data and am now
waiting to see if the FTSE can touch 4500 before going short.
Melnibone.

Croc,
I couldn't find the HTML editor on this thread.
Had to go back to Friday's thread to find it.
Am I missing it somewhere, or are you stopping putting the link
on the thread?
Melnibone.

Hi Testex,
Nice to hear from you again.
You're right, 'JR' Browne is still 'whupping' them. :-)
Been Spreadbetting the S@P last month.
Ref my CMC Cfd's, had some great opportunities for intraday and
overnight scalps with some of my favourite Blue Chip trading shares.
MKS, SHEL, SBRY, LGEN, HSBA. All took big hits and rebounded nicely.
OOM has been good with all the takeover rumours. Every time it dropped
below 101p I bought it, and every time it dropped below 100p I
'Filled my Boots'. :-))
I think that's the standard phrase used for ramping, isn't it? :-))))
Have a look at a 3 month GSK chart.
You can stick a ruler along it. (or should that read 'Down It').
Melnibone.

I like ironing the frilly things, Testex.
I think my psyche must have damaged when I first heard
Pink Floyd play 'Arnold Layne' in the 1960's. :-))
I fear that I've never been the same since. ;-)
I bet there's a load of young sprogs scratching their heads
now, who've never heard 'Arnold Layne', wondering what I'm
talking about. :-))
Melnibone.

Hi Croc & all,
Watched your preso on Friday, great fun only I was at the back so couldn't see the live trade clearly. If I keep reading your threads, or even attend one of your courses, who knows then one day.........Cheers, Amber
