nfp expected to be good , so dollar up, index down. what a perverse world we live in eh?

yes i did! lol given back 60 of yests 90 pips. live and learn mate

twice 52 week average vols. encouraging signs. tni, watch for double bottom at 64p guys. win, i'm there, watching the grass grow. sold half my ifl and let the rest run. was ugly for a while but a profit is rescued. xch out at 62.5 this morning. eo in the crosshairs.

i'd be fairly happy to load up at 5700 as i cant see too much worse but you never know, the drop was 1000 points last spring! however higher lows and toying with 6500 by year end, you heard it here 1st. lol at 5700 all the miners and the banks would be good value imo. we'll see i guess. Arkk, yes mate i'm holding off but to be honest i may not see it. i'm not worried if i don't. in days gone by i'd beat myself up for missing the opportunity but there are so many other trades out there with equivalent value that i eventually figured so what if i dont get lloyds at the lows!

re: 16.20post. thats excatly what it was imo. I set my orders at 7.00 am this morn, i took the gap fill all the way to yest close @5935 and set a sell @ the same, went a little red for about 20 mins but took 50 points up and 40 back, not bad for a days work eh! lol

so sorry to hear that mate, my thoughts are with you and yours mate. my sincerest condololences.

CTH divergence on the macd & rsi dailies but not the weeklies so a price improvement due but perhaps not a trend reversal. its in full bear mode, all ma's are in order ie. 130 below 200, 50 below 130, 22 below 50, 10 below 22. support (descending) at 200 and 193 and this has held to date. only downside is that i would want out at 22 ema, curently 221, not exactly great risk reward and the reason it stays on the watchlist for now and not in the trade list.... yet http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/1182/cth.png

feck that, i'd be on here as much as you, posting all them trades ! lol EO is a buy from tech perspective too! i just would take a lower sell price, thats all.

it makes him, a) a gambler b) at best careless c) too well off! d) brave or foolish e) stooooooooopid imo

okey dokey, i'm gonna chart it tonight and we'll see how we go. 'twill be interesting, cos i beleive that you can still make good money on a fundamentally unattractive stock but as Netley says, can't go wrong with good companies and charts!

CTH-caretech holdings. been on my watchlist for ages, freefalling. wont share my view just yet, are you prepared to have a peak at it guys? this is great , i'll just get everyone else to research my potential trades for me. lol

do you never sleep man?!!! lol youre a 24/7 fundamental analysing machine! to be honest with you, i am in complete agreement, this is bottoming out big time right now, its almost like its coiling the springs and waiting to release. my money is on a little spike down to create the 'kangaroo tail' and off she goes. morning all.

I got 172.44 lol. Kept half back for 160 or 180 tho!

stupid touch screen keyboard thingy!

you are me! lol 61% winners last year , 1st year of trading , equated to just above 40% cash return. to be fair i was fairly happy with that. only issue is i felt i traded too much. 95 trades in all. a lot of the losers were early in the year too. so by my reckoning youre doing ok mate. i also use the 10% rule, in that i only ever invest 10% of my portfolios value into 1 company and i then set a 10% stop loss on that, but only when FULLY invested ie. not after tranche 1 or 2, but 10% stop when all 10% is jn.hope that makes sense? re; tranches. i am defo an advocate of that. the closer you get go your extreme target then the more you put in. eg i had 30% (of my allowed 10% !!!lol) into yell at 10p and i will pop another 40% in when bottom found (2 up days in a row will do me) and kee 30% back as its obviuosly a very volitile one. LLOY however i'd be happy with 50% at 60p and the rest at 55p . you just gauge your risk reward based on how early you get in. the downside?, if the price turns up after only tranche 1 then you get pi$$ed off you weren't more positive! ie. XCH @49p! my hardest lesson so far is patience, hence i'll often get in too early (Yell) and sometimes i fear missing the boat (prty!) ps. the only platform ive found better than pro real is ig. and its free if you trade twice a month. i cant get on with the big charts site grays uses! lol

fair do's. ta

xel?

lol, you gotta start typing with more than one finger at a time! hehe

never doubted you. just know theres no range right now! lol

Aint that the truth, but always more than 1 way to skin the cat as Netley just showed, although he cant have traded it too much, the buggger has had a range of about 3 p for ages!!!! lol
