Think weve all been caught out with this inflation rise mitzy.
Rather worrying to see US futures so negative especially after a big down day last trading day.

Mitzy,
I don't know why I spend any time on MM.
All my calls have been right, never called it wrong and even my butler has a Rolls out of my profits.
I have forgotten something!
We can't afford the petrol yet!

Here is (for me) an interesting set of charts.
If I didn't know the company and held their shares for too long, would consider watching and buying.
I am not suggesting anyone should do so..
However what interested me is 3 large buys (for this Company) of 2millions each totalling in value 24000.
Peanuts, but nevertheless large for this company for this usual levels.
Indicators, not of much note, but short MA are in upturn.
Fundamentals less than impressive and no RNS or other news,
Why the buys????
Comments maybe interesting.
In to-day's bleak market any good news would be well received.

GF.
From Sharescope
Zig-zag chart
The zig-zag line is a method of filtering out random noise and comparing relative price movements. The line is produced by drawing straight lines between points at which the price has reversed by at least the specified amount. This emphasizes the most significant changes in price movement, making the overall trends easier to see.
Zig-zag lines are set to use a minimum price change (based on the value or range of a period) and ignore any changes below that minimum. For example, a zig-zag line value set at 10% produces a line that only reverses direction after a price change of 10% or more.
The Provisional last leg option projects the final stretch of the zig-zag line where it has not yet reached the minimum change value.
==========
The way I use the ZIG indicator, is to show up major movements to see any useful pattern of movement.
In Sharescope one can vary the percentage of SP movement.
It high lights what has happened, but not what will happen.
With my dealing, at the moment, I need something which will tell me what is going to happen, but even then I have a feeling I will make mistakes.
Not a nice day today.

glad i ducked yesterday, even if insufficiently given what is to come on monday.
though it won't necessarily quite be that, IG are currently showing FTSE to open -95 which would be just above the key support level of 5200

5200 and below could be on the cards this week.
waiting for Obhama to get sorted out.

Do you use indicators on intra-day of short term trading? If yes, what indicators are you using?
goldfinger

Fred not at the moment but I do when we have a raging bull market, although get bored very often.
Always use lower indicators macd, stots to confirm and atr.
In a trending market I use adx and try and use sharecast site were you can use comparative strength tool to match stock with sector and indicies as a whole.
http://www.sharecast.com/cgi-bin/sharecast/sharecast_charting.cgi
Not doing much at the moment would normally be shorting a few but got a heavy head cold so just taking it easy for a few days.
cheers.
