Hi Task did you use your get out of jail card at 12710 or are you still in? .......5 min, 5 pip wick fodder,made me chuckle. ....I've blown up a few accounts and had more than my fair share of margin calls. Is all it means now is that I have several explosions every 5 mins then one big one when I put what's left on a 4 hour candle. Lol lol

On my reckoning the 61,8 fibo is 12860 from the triple bottom on the 4 hr from 6th February. The 61,8 is often a rejection point............ but hopefully it wont get there. I am off out now Good luck

Hi Task AUD USD came down as my original prediction but we dont ever really know ... hence taking the stops Bo ho ! I am just going to scalp next week on 5 min time frame with 5pip stops and see how that works out!! . Your DAX if its going to turn........ maybe at the 12810 or 12825 or the 12850.... Good luck Task

Hi Task I got stopped out on ozzie dollar during last night for 48 points 😕. I don't know, it was so frustrating as it did drop quite a lot a couple of pips later. I tried to get it back today but it was ranging and i couldn't find any direction....so came out just after the NY cut ..... Then it dropped again. ....Just a wierd week for me. Try again next week I think. Well done on your trades. Gs renolds I think also trades on the us markets. They have been around for ever ....good luck all .

Hi Task again well done!!!! A rotten day fro me my AUD USD short turned against me... I got caught up in a 1 Billion $ option expiry at the New York cut , It shot it up and magnetised it and it kept on going. I hate those vanilla options when they work against me. I am currently 39 pips in the red plus dollar basket falling didn't help YUK YUK YUK . Last day of the month tomorrow and freaky day again ..... GS and BWM Technically, Cine looks like its beginning to move. It has a lot of previous resistance to push through though so it needs some momentum and some volume to keep it going .......... Looks like some good buying today

Hi Task nice work on your ftse trades. Yesterday I traded the 2 min Aud Usd back and forth with some success. ..Today I opened a dax long and got hit with a depth charge almost instantly hitting my stop for 24 points. ... ouch Also running a aud usd short from the 618 fibbo and dollar basket dropped on China fight back talk taking my trade north! Ran a couple of hedge trades to try to fix it. !!!! Am still in waiting for my pullback!! Decided a walk in the rain was more preferable to trading right now ......GS... BWM I think you will find cine drop was related to Ftse drop..... I'll take a long look at cine T/A tonight and report back Gl all

Sorry to hear your VLE didnt happen for you but a solid company so you can kerp an eye on it. I've not looked at phtm but will take a look soon. Your phychology re trading affects us all.... the market has a name for it .They call it FOMO (fear of missing out) or another one is a cognitive bias we believe we are right based on a our own thought Process EG ....We all believe we are good drivers (cognitive bias) but statistics proves we are not. If we could get a handle on our own cognitive biases we would all be better traders. ...... Gl all

Ah yes you are short on the ftse ....yes I think your profit could materialise but watch out for a possible turn ....... I was long in the bull push north when I hit my stop last week I obviously did the right thing !!. Windows 10 yes highly irritating but i don't know too much about Linux .I don't use explorer. I use chrome with a few extentions in fact IG recommend Chrome. Also there are some useful add ons in my Vpn which cuts through a lot of windows interference. . Market will be really thin today UK and USA on holiday. ..so no trading. GL all

Hi all...... Task sorry to hear about your funeral attendances. Always sad occasions . FTSE are you long or short on it with your current loss. ?. Trying to live the dream but not there yet! I scalped the Aud Usd and Eur Usd reasonably successfuly on Wednesday .using the1 hr 10 and 2 min time frames (No trading since except for talk talk short ) ......having the 3 screens helps. I can keep the dollar basket up all the time which give me a heads up on the dollar pairs. I:7 processor and Ssd drive is stunningly fast . ......Gs Poorly today with rotten cold and bad back. You're right about the whisky. .... the malt will be out soon and I know it will make me feel better!! You're passionate about cine world I will take an in depth look ! . BWM not been on the markets today so don't know how you got on with VLE but will take a look later. Good luck all and hi to Hot if your watching. .... have a good weekend all .....Opti

Hi Bwm I dont know the company at all but what a cracking set of results and terrific rise! knowing me with 88p rise in a few hours i would have top sliced or be out by now. ( thats only me) .. I see technically its at the same price as it was in November 17. If the FTSE keeps going up it will go with it but it might stall there as well......... who knows , decent enough divi though Well done Bwm and "Hats in the air to you" .

BWM are you talking about elctocomponents?

Gs good luck with your new buys.. Ive gone back into an old favourite of ours from the old days TW .. A special divi coming up and they keep kicking out divis like smarties... Task was underwater on FTSE long long on Tues/Wed then got torpedoed in the morning what a shocker with prediction of longs to record 8000 then it crashed big time. I am nursing my head from banging it against the wall. Picked up a nice little short this morning on Talk Talk so a smile on my face . GS brought back a bottle of Bunnahabhain malt from Calander Scotland . Gl all

In Scotland for a long weekend. Staying just north of Stirling. . Have a good weekend all..

GS Bpc a very, very, wise decision in my view. profit takers will be all over it plus the FTSE according to Techs will soon be going south for a while........... (Plus got your email and will respond soon) . Task........ yes new PC decided to go the whole hog got an I7 processor 3.4gh 16 Gb of Ram 120 Gb of Ssd drive a dedicated 1 Gb Radeon graphics card and 3 x 20 Hd inch wide screens. plus 3 extra ports if i want more screens Dreadfully frustrating setting it all up had to get tech help to get all the arrows moving across the screens in the right order but now its all done and it goes like shxt of a shovel!!.. Hope you got the right side of the Ftse eventually. I stole a scalp from the Dow today on the bell then had to go out . BWM yes thanks re family crisis would love to go int detail but for confidentiality reasons i best not. . AMER up today 3.71% but Colombian wells always a bit risky (territory) and one step forward etc Gl all

Task Well done on your Dax trades I was running a short on the ftse since Friday and got a reasonable limit sell yesterday whilst out. Like you too much going on to properly trade at the moment , Some news though ive invested in a mega fast computer and running three 20inch screens... Not set up yet but looking forward to not having to keep clicking between times frames when scalping. I might then go for ECN ...... it all takes time good luck all

Been very distracted for the last few days, family crisis going on . Thanks Bwm for your comments and response to my post re Photo.............. ITV could potentially get up to 180 but profit takers took profits on the rise at 170. Its currently at a support at 167 and trying to push north but If it drops significantly it will get back to the 155 area. hopefully that wont happen and the bulls will push it back up to 180 and beyond! Gs very well done on your trades really pleased that Bahamas has shot up for you !!! . ( hats in the Air)

Photo me ............ didn't know they were into acquiring launderette sites as well as photo booth........ It seems to be an unloved share by the market........ I cant see much wrong with it cracking dividend but it doesn't appear to go anywhere As its at a similar price to June last year.... its one to set your personal stop loss on it and hope for a rise . Good luck

Hi Gs. Bpc........... to be honest if i was younger i would have had ago, you do have time on your side, so maybe its worth hanging on in there.. Yes DCOG should be steady especially that now they are de risked and well established. Bwm 100% gain sounds magnificent well done and free shares are always a bonus you dont need to worry about them.ill check out PHTM over the weekend............ Task I guess you are busy but if your about ive been shorting USD CHF. a bit risky with the long term bull run and i was underwater most of yesterday and last night but it came good this afternoon. A massive turnaround this afternoon as the dollar dropped.. Also ive picked up a few points on AUS USD as well. good luck all

I was tempted but just a bit to risky for me.... It could indeed be a multi bagger. the very best of luck Gs. I bought a tranche of Diversified oil and gas today DGOC they are an AIM and a type of fund they buy gas and oil companies and have 30000 wells. They pay quarterly dividends about 5% yield going ex tomorrow. It looks a fairly safe buy and hold . They bought APC and CNX earlier this year. Maybe they are going to buy BPC. that would be a turn up for the books Gs.. Gl all

Gs ive had a look but i dont get it. Why would a potential partner company pay $750000 just to talk to Bpc?. It doesn't make sense to me. Ive never heard anything like it. Does Gs senior have any ideas?
