I find trading like body surfing, catch the right one and you will make it all the way to the beach.

The Train is in Motion (Baby on Board)

Push Mr Market.

 

FTSE pushing

S&P pushing

 

We need close above 1840 on S&P

FTSE broke 6780

 

Now Asia must push us higher

 

1841 important pivot.

I realised today that my strategy totally sucks. Almost wiped out my account (small account but that's besides the point). I have been reading and strategising, but this is really not working for me guys. Where can I get some clarity on trading, or is this just not possible?

 

mmm..strategy..try buying shares going up and then selling when they go down ;-)

 

if that doesn't work then find a good wheelman, a couple pistols and a zuma mask.

Do not try and bend the market. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth. Then you'll see, that it is not the market that bends, it is only yourself.

Hopefully some relief is around the corner for ZAR.  Just a little bit though.

Thanks,

 

Just keep an eye on FTSE. If it breaks 6780 then 6850 will come very fast.

 

It might take ALSI back to 42000

 

Thanks, agree!
