Horrible numbers in the UK ...Spain / Italy will look like crumbs if the UK get in downward spiral.... Last time we were there in the 70s it took more than dozen Quarters to recover (now we have 3 in a row) without counting a couple of bailouts from the IMF....

FED last resort like always... Jackson Hole again? we'll see but stocks look set for a deeper pullback to key Support again.... Watch-out for DAX losing 6400, Ftse 5500, and ES test to 129x. for reference

Euro just a trading air with same levels since Monday (1.223x for reference before...
The ice beneath the feet seems to be getting thinner and thinner. Really need a good sense of humour in order to not walk around with a long face.

Good morrow, sisse.

.... yeap

...but the real move has happened yet ...we have the triple combo again in the table for the summer, BOE and ECB cuts and FED QE ...I think that will be enough to break the range in gold...
Agreed. Happy enough to play the range until that happens. Just trying not to drop my guard. Need to remember every time I play the edge...it could be the time the range blows! On the toes...on the toes.

Meanwhile GL ...thin market in summer so you can easily micromanage that with those nice entries you had...

That's actually a good point. If you can stick a nice entry, it can be a little easier to manage these days. A little slower going, but nice without so many different forces pushing things in different directions at all times.

Anything in play for yourself, mate?

Whole farm in long? Watch for double top there on H1.

Good luck with it. Hope the Euro pulls a large-winged Phoenix for your longs.

Nope I am flat across the board.

I am actively looking for entry shorts. There are screaming swing shorts to support in all indices across the board. With NY in the ES to 129x.x. Don't like trading directly FTSE in futures but is such a good option that I am tempted to take it in "spot" to 5000 (with intermediate stops at 369 and 140 for the summer play).

Good stuff...hate the thought of you sitting there bored!

ES coming in on the mid of yesterday's drop...just saying. Ghost of PTL, or something. 1345ish looks interesting, too. 5000 on FTSE would pay one's bills! 5510ish looks interesting there, but that's futures. How far do spot and futures vary on indices? I know, I know...it depends (), but...is it a LOT...or not so much, or...does it really just depend?

Oh right. Missed that. GBP and I are not really lovers...spend very little time with her these days. Chart is up, but just for reference. Naked chart, other than a pink MA named DTEMA for visual ref at a glance.

I'm being a jackass...but I do rarely trade it at all. Suppose I could/should...especially when you show up declaring sweet azz entries...you bastard!

Depends on the expiration... just before rollovers is just +/- to the tick. At the start of the contract when the time difference is 3 months (depends on the contact too) you may have some differences (+/- 5 points in the ES for example) but it doesn't change the proportionality of the moves so for trading is the same.

Oh yeap FTSE 5000 will pay more than one's bills mate ...that's the kind of swing you want to grab every Quarter...

We'll see
