I'm out of here. My first week of trading and I am happy with the way things have gone. I could have had more pips than I have by not getting out of Wednesday's big drop too early, but at least I took something from it. Definitely, by trading a live account, albeit a micro one, I think I have...

But that's normally the case!:)

Blimey...looks a total mess to me!

What's keeping this thing from dropping... Friday??

Actually, I haven't tried anything else except the Dow, just seemed like the tight spread and the big moves made it the obvious instrument to trade. Looking at it as a novice, it doesn't look like it is any more difficult to trade than anything else, though really I have no idea.

Yes, the Dax looks really nice. I've never tried it.

I get the strong feeling Dow wants to dump big time, but there are just too many buyers in there atm trying to push it back up I guess.

I'd love to be able to trade the London session on Dow, as there are some great moves. Dax also looks good. Unfortunately, it is the time I sleep.

If I had shorted up there, I would have exited right there on 380. Pointless post I know:)

Just like yesterday's open...jacks it up to then sell. Didn't get on that, thought about it though when it stalled just below the 76.4% fib. Might be another chance if it comes back a bit....

G'day folks. Wish I had some idea where the Dow is headed this afternoon, but haven't a clue, though if you twisted my arm, I'd say down. Looking at my 15m chart, my 200sma has sent the price back down twice today, the last time just now, and so, perhaps, one more push back up towards it, and...

:thumbsup:

I think you're right. I think it could be targeting 140 or so, maybe today's S2 pivot at 075.

What I learnt today was this. My first post today was that to me it looked like the Dow was going to fall today. I was right, but, the price spiked up first, knocking my short out, and I reckon a good few other traders. Was this market manipulation to hunt stop losses? I don't know, but it sure...

Holy cow...I just bagged myself 118 pips. Don't care what it does now. No more trades today.:D

Out 320

I'm holding....

If it runs for me, I've set a TP at 31,360

Moved SL to BE. I'm not going to lose money on this one after being +40 up.

It's coming back off today's central pivot again!!
