nfl..much more important: look at poor reaction to Fed in afternoon trading ...signs of trouble ahead (again lol)

I like rio (from a researched not trend pov)...only drawback is that iron ore price hasn't definitively bottomed (need Fortescue to mothball most of their ops to persuade me of that) ...but somewhere here £14-16 may seem like a steal in a few years time

gold may be promising play, I grant you..but not one for me (save token in HUM) ...AIM may struggle to crash thru 650 given 6 year floor? So expect another spike to where?720-750 ...Still waiting for ftse to crash thru 5600...all the way down sub 5000 in a long drawn out bear ...value being wrung out painfully following s&p correction down thu 1500...sometime lol

Jolly fierce lol......bit subdued on Friday, mind ...roll on another exciting week...oh how dull is the w/e when volatility comes to brighten up the trading days

the lack of rallies on major markets is telling..screaming..CASH,,,imv ...(or at least: stop buying the dips lol)

and the mighty moosh "see the waves" buy the ftse @7100 lol...couldn't make a worse call..and couldn't make it up

all power, camkite ...to believe that research is dangerous...is well...Jolly dangerous..but great news if a great bulk of those who are trading with me believe in such nonsense ..this is a zero sum game (largely) so you want foolish counterparts ...trends are way more dangerous (cf nfl's recent howlers on aim and crude)

u have done well on buy to lets..time to cash out some winnings (not advice of course!!)? ....cash...esp euro...look about as good a bet as any long for 2016 ...shorting us assets looks great as well...all of them...bonds, stocks, currency...probably property...all way way overhyped imv...reality is that the us consumer is being subsidised by chinese et al...and if they stop that subsidy...

ditto with crude...too many punters follow trends lol

nfl..aim shows danger of trends...you have to look at reality...and reality is bleak...v v bleak

moosh...u have gone v quiet re ftse...what nonsense u peddle

let's go back to yr confident and patronising PoV on FTSE breakout, moosh..."7060 whoosh", "for the slow on the uptake", "reading the patterns" etc etc ...guess better to be slow and cautious... than speedy, overconfident, dismissive and wrongheaded

man up & accept that your posting earlier this week re ftse was off the mark ...yr approach involves "bulling" so many shares and indices that a few are bound to work out...but that hardly proves the value of yr breakout method ...where is the accountability? ...ps reckon this is bear relief for wti/brent...no more than that

nfl...I suspect the behaviour around small cap breakouts makes more sense than for the major indicies...at least outside the US ...the ftse is heavily influenced by the S&P...so any assessment of the ftse must refer to the S&P (it is asymmetric...the US/yanks couldn't care less about us)

ftse down to 6950...so much for the breakout lol

CCE on a roll...up to 7/8p imv

ftse heading down thru 7000 ...it is all random walk ...don't take these chartist breakouts too seriously, folks lol

still ftse not so hot..your confidence is not borne out...yet ...Just as likely to fall 10% as rise 10% whatever yr charts/entrails say ...in my robustly amateur opinion only

v slow on the uptake here...ftse closed @7019 ..key insight: could go either way but supported by frothy S&P, so downwards biased ..let's see, eh?

wrong call on ftse, moosh...so perhaps u don't know any better than us plebs
