yes, and this is something what happens relatively often: when french data at 09:00 is bad, EU and dax are falling because most markets participants are looking at the macroeconomic interdepencencies between france and germany - ignoring hat german industry is much stronger than the france one. so itīs a nice play when france number is bad and dax is falling to go long

{quote} hi islander, your computer is repaired and working again? good luck for today!
GM - yes thanks and to the other member who PMd me offering help It had started to run slow and the main problem was a build up of dust and dirt which was causing overheating and thus slowing down the thingy ...... I'm NOT a 'puter expert!! So a clean and vacuum of the physical internals and ditto of the hard drive and all is good.

So far, a nice early fall, reversed by the better than anticipated German data.....those were nice pts you banked - I got some too

Now will the rally be able to break above yesterday's highs?? Not a lot of support from Dow / S&P.....

Agreed and that's when my faster MA helps - just wait until price gets close to it and then take another buy and bank some when price gets too far away, like in those outer channels..... Once the faster one changes colour, stop buying and re-evaluate......

Edit: Also, price is far away from the slower MA and given that so far today's range is already 200 pts with the 10 day ADR at 240 I'll wait for a bit .....

hi ZA Rhino,

thatīs ok. i donīt have to win all of my trades, i can live with 50/50 - but the last one was not a clever one
tried sar first time, i think it was the last time. banked 15 pips on cable and will take a break now.
