Wouldnt bet against 6250 being the bottom of the sell off looking at above chart.

my gut feeling (wishful thinking?) is that the gloom about today's us numbers is overdone (see fear+greed) ...... target figure is now +150,000 down from +195,000

Gloom about todays figures!!!! most analysts I have been reading on the US sites are very upbeat towards the expectations of the non farm payrolls.
Ill be glad if someone from the FED just comes out and says QE is not in the near future going to be tapered.
The problem being the US is further up the cyclical ladder of recovery than Europe and Asia which could lead to interest rates increasing and the equilibrium of world market balance being put in a spin.

whatever the figures, they could be interpreted by the market in either direction ...... we all know that sooner or later QE will be tapered out, and from a world economy point of view, that is surely no bad thing - i.e. it indicates that the us and thus world economy is back on the up

U.S. hiring seen pointing to economy in need of Fed's help
WASHINGTON | Fri Jun 7, 2013 7:40am BST
(Reuters) - U.S. employers likely stepped up hiring only slightly in May, a sign the economy was growing modestly but not strongly enough to convince the Federal Reserve to scale back the amount of cash it is pumping into the banking system.
The United States probably added 170,000 jobs last month, with the unemployment rate holding steady at a lofty 7.5 percent, according to a Reuters survey of economists.

On a positive note 92.5% of the workforce are in work.The optimistic view always looks better.

ohhh indeed indeed Roselea.
Pity we as humans always focus on negetive things,eg, so fed up of watching depressing news on news cannels.
Reckon if someone opened a news channel for nice/positive news it would be a great hit.

Back on course for 6400 support......... at the moment.
Thats the problem with a smaller world, news flow is so fast and easy to get now, never mind the computer bots.

C+M Index (NMX2350)
try this for an obvious - friday bounced straight off 200 dma
i already held (in too early), but assuming reaction is good on monday too, then probably some good upside still to come

Cyners still a bit wary.
Wait for confirmation even if you lose a few pips.
