Hi HelenaY,

If you look at the PDF on the first post of the thread, reference is made (on page 17) to the "ma at 1.00 and 5.00" type trade. Or refer to the original posting 332 where there is a chart with a clock insert providing the visualisation of the 1 'o'clock, 5 'o'clock reference.

Still new at this myself but the clock reference is just to give you a general idea of the angle of the ma's. EO's method of trading the price under these circumstances can then be applied.

Sorry if I've gone over stuff you already knew (if you were looking for more detail then perhaps one of the regulars will provide it)

Hey Pip,

Can you pass me a cheat-sheet while nobody is looking?

Never mind me Pip, Have you sorted that M3 out yet?

Still not traded the system yet but had a look back over the charts to improve my "feel" for it. As I mentioned, I'm going to focus my efforts on Cable before taking on "your & Ken's" mistress.

Looking at the way you guys post while you're also riding the bus up and down lets me know how far away I am. Takes me all my concentration just to read the PA, never ming posting my "thinking aloud" thoughts as the trade unfolds.

That's where I need to get myself though so my goal is in place.

Macc...
Mission accomplished with the M3. She is a little louder but not much but does seem to have a little more pep. Now I may need a chiropractor for my back.

Do whatever you're comfortable with and as you gain more confidence then maybe look at the other pair. You can make plenty of pips with GU alone. I'm just not a one pair kind a guy.

Don't worry about posting and trading at the same time until you are more confident unless you have questions about a potential set up. Ask questions.

No, they are still in the eufa champion's league but that's about it for a chance at a trophy...

And you would have faced Everton in the final had "The Arse" got through Infinity. No disrespect to any Everton fans who may be reading (great result today boys) but that could have been a good chance to get your hands on some silver, though you looked good against Villarreal so you're as good a bet as any for the Champs league (though Barcelona looked tasty)

Still, you've played some great football in the last third of this season so I reckon your back to being a force to be reckoned with next season

Would have been a nice 35/50 rev. on GU if I didn't have a huge spread.

Given the injuries they have had, I think they've had a reasonable season. They were effectively without their two first choice strikers, and without their first choice midfield for a good part of the season.

You can see what could have been now that they are all fit. Next season could be a good one for Arsenal, provided they can keep their key players, and strengthen the squad depth with two or three good acquisitions over the summer.

I agree... I think have a great chance at the champion's league this year if we get some players back from injury and don't lose any more to it. Next year, if we don't sell any of our key players and add maybe 1 central defender, I think we will have a chance at some silverware.
