Hey, Sunesis and peepz who trade the S and P futures, what's the best broker to use for off shore investing?

I don't invest i only trade. For offshore investing it is best to find firms like Coronation and Allan Gray

Hi S. How long do you keep these positions? How many pips are you looking for before taking profit? 30, 50, 100? More? What are your exit signals?

Between 80 and 200points. 

I make sure i close my trades before US session close. I don't want a position to roll over the next day unless i am on a loss. I put 500point stop, but for every dip i keep buying. If i have more than 2000point loss on all my trades conbined points i close for a loss.

 

I'm a day trader so i try to take what i can get. I exit when i feel that i have made my daily target of 1% a day

Seems like the steam is running a little low this morning..

One thing i learned is it does not matter what i think the market will do.

Just as long as the chart is going up i will jump in.

 

To find the trend you just have to look at the weekly and daily. Use the 15min to enter longs when the red candle hits the middle bollinger band go long. Your stocastic should be low

Sometimes in a strong bullish momentum it does not get there. So you have to play russian rollete with the market. After all its why we trade. The is no safe trade in this world.

Got 50 odd points from this morning .... No position ATM.

Nice one, i jumped in at Asia open, from 39880 closed at 40030 too early.

I'm looking for another long ATM.

 

I will keep buying until a pullback comes. The money i have made by following the trend will be more than one loss of a major pullback.

I've taken a lot from the market since 2 weeks ago by just buying and not confusing myself by deciding to short.

Sunesis, do you think SAB will close the gap before heading up again?

I think it will, but not sure when

German DAX one decade overview, approaching all time high.

Contibue buying until a pullback or crasd comes. Thats the best way to make money.

 

Standing in front of a bullet train wont help.

Don't listen to comments from stupid experts on TV or in the media.

Just do what the chart is telling you.

The trend is up and the bulls trading account is also up.

Naspers, Richemont, BHP,Anglo, Sasol,MTN throwing in the turbos today.

 

Waiting for SAB to start her engines and we are off

 

Bull markets are stronger by orders of magnitude, than bear markets. Due to human nature, they tend to go and go and go.

 

Viva LA Bull :P  :P  :P  :P  :P

Sunesis, do you think SAB will close the gap before heading up again?
