Would love for it to come in at below expectation! Still have a target of 35200 (IG spot) to reach.

Pleasure. Love the fact that there is no 15 minute delays or any nonsense like that. The only thing it misses is a realtime quote on the actual Top40 value....

Bloomberg forecasts retails sales will decline...

 
U.S. Stock Futures Retreat Before Retail-Sales Report
By Sarah Jones - 2013-05-13T10:19:45Z
 

U.S. stock futures retreated, indicating the benchmark Standard & Poor’s 500 Index will retreat from a record, before data that may show retail sales declined last month.

Yes they do predict a decline but not as big as in the past see here http://www.investing...nomic-calendar/

They expect a decline of only 0,1% compared to -0,4% last time. That's a big betterment for them. If it comes in at -0,2%?

Nice plunge there.... I have sells at 35675 and 35750 on the binaries which have just turned green. Is this fall sustainable? US pointing red very much.... 

Retail sales data out of US coming out at 14h30 and forecasts are for a significant betterment.... If it doesn't meet expectations?!

Hedged my shorts with a couple of longs. Now the wait to see if the bulls or bears win this one. In the medium term the bears should come out on top.

This range bound trading is sooo frustrating. Is the next big move up, or down...?

Looking at next 100 points, might just be a long.

Hi Massimo,

 

Key is to realise the timeframes, short term..medium term?, always got a medium term trade in that I sit tight on, now the medium term is still up, but that will change after this week, but short term is down so I run a trade to hedge my big position, so if mr markets decides to go up now I still make money and if the indicators confirm will cut my hedging position!

 

But I focus more on the medium term trades as I leave them to catch the big swings and where the big money is!

 

A

Morning Argento

 

I'm curious how you trade that strategy.. do you just sit tight with an open trade, or are you constantly in and out at various 'impotant' points?
 

Today i went short at 35775 , took half my contracts off at first tartget (35708) and now waiting for my second target at 35625.

 

Thanks in advance
