'Markets are moved by the US/DOW'. Stick your head out in this game and Mr Market is sure to come and cut it off. Haha.

active monitoring of the price action?
100p target min..but will close on the fly(manual) after that
Looking at the 4h cash IG chart we will have resistance at 47000. Not sure whether we will break that....
Okay so we are through....pity I'm not on the bus :(

Africa will never be regarded as adult until all of its organisations stop admiring and protecting criminal dictators.

MSM et al presents (sponsored) opinion as fact and seeks to indoctrinate. Journalists without ethics proliferate in a swamp of filthy lucre (BBC inclusive).

In response to decades of racism by fearful minority whites called apartheid there will be an eternity of racism by revengeful majority blacks called all kinds of excuses.

Corruption is not yet compulsory but it may as well be - Aggressive africanization uses the racist Employment Equity Act as a club.

Too many humans are too busy copulating to bother about the irresponsible, unsustainable and progressively catastrophic population explosion. 

Whilst humanity prevails so will evil. Evil will survive and thrive through sophisticated indoctrination and other conscience-suppressing disguises.

Desmond Tutu has been praying for the downfall of the ANC since 2011. Clearly he needs some assistance with such a difficult and worthy task..

Cockroaches still lurk on sharechat because it is prime real estate for their con artistry, duping and grand theft.

Wise words. As I have mentioned before very few actually make money in this game. As low as 5% has been said. Thus be a 5 percenter is the name of the game. 

I am talking Alsi futures here. CFDs another story which I have no comment on.

I have lost my shirt day trading. It simply does not work for me and I can not get my head around how some of the guys on this forum can actually make money. Since I started looking longer term, the majority of my trades are profitable. I basically only trade when its a no brainer and the trend is obvious, then hit it with the kitchen sink. Sitting with my finger on the button, at the slightest hint of hesitation before im well into the money I will bail. Then the stop loss is set above the entry point! Sometimes it takes a week or longer to find such opportunities! Trading for the sake of trading is a mugs game. A successful trade on a day like today, for me will be pure luck so I sit in the peanut gallery till next week. Another thing I have stopped doing is playing shorts in a bull market

Last week would have been my first green month. Just needed 300 pips. And then the mountain came down. Well...now a new month and a green week so far...And ito the previous post..I am trying to reduce my no of trades per day...perhaps making less ito missed opportunities, but giving less back, whilst learning more. An exiting journey...focussing on becoming a better trader and the profits will follow... :)

Today, as with all US closed days, shows how much the markets are driven by the US. Sometimes every DOW pip moves our market. Not that we do not sometimes get out of sink with them. R etc. but as a rule the US dominates. The futures are open but very quiet. Thus US closed, take some time off and mow the lawn.
