Good morning traders
Well called Lekkerry.
Again.... This little lesson repeats itself for the intraday traders daily. Trade the trend, not what we think it should be.

Trading by emotion and/or expectation is a pocket emptying certainty.

Got lekke negative divergence for the return move down to the neckline to start this afternoon, target 35100 (forexpros)!
She normally stays up till 11-12ish, will cut my longs then and go short before the red tide comes in!

Hmmm, ALSI forgot to take its vitamin this morning?
You wouldn't say that if you were watching it at 07h30!

Possible 123 move, took a short against the trend, but will keep an eye on it.

Think this sudden drop will be bought into pushing her back up for that tiny high in the morning before the real drop!
Taking some long exposure!

You say that as if you ONLY have two options, either long or short.... NO POSITION is also a position.
Im happy to run with a short now and add another later 300 points up..Just dont wanna be long right now

Unless the miners continue their down-drag of yesterday, this AM early, I would hang tight with shorts, there is another 300 to 400 points (up) on the deck at stake.

The first goal is to ensure survival – avoid the risks that can empty your account and put you out of the trading business.

Nice move. Just jumped like crazy! Gotta love it when the market maker doesn't know what's coming!
Yeh these speeches (especially Draghi, Bernanke or Merkel) tend to fluctuate this thing through stop losses and back again!
Yep...but just took a nibble on long at 34250..Not really looking forward to the speech though

Morning gents. Yes, you would think that it would be up today. US futures have however just turned red and I see all EU futures are reddish...
German production data at 12h00 is potentially a big one and then at 14h30 we have a speech by Stein (US FOMC member).
You might be right Chubby. Better than expected China trade data. East very green. Positive sentiment all over. My speculative short, with the intent of a overnight scalp, may turn out to be a liability. Not confident that a downward spike will take place on IGM. Will see .....
