Some support here at 122 then around 115/116.

 

I will probably close end of day and re-short the next bounce down to 115.

 

ps, I've a big long term holding in VOD so though making some money on these trades I'm not happy!

CLosed it around 12250. 

Will look to open again if it bounces tomorrow

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.

I am in between meetings all day so haven't seen news. What is happening with MTN and VOD.
Did ICASA. Say something ?

Market not liking MTN's quarterly update - VOD dropping in sympathy = my 2c

Anyone else looking to short SAB at 549 and WHL at 71? :o

I like that WHL trade, but I will only start looking at it from 7350

cool, I'm thinking 115/116 too as the next tp. Hope it hold here at 122 though. I feel pretty stupid having closed my shorts at 12900 last week! 

 

 

sorry about your longs!

it was bouncing around 12750 for a bit, thought that was it, opened my long position at 12750, now wondering if i should rather close it around 12500 and re enter or just hold on and add.

That was an excellent call Gamma, well done! Which Broker do you use? I would like to trade options on those shares and indices as well

 

I trade on TDAmeritrade's ThinkorSwim platform. You may need a US bank account but at least potentially an international bank account. Not sure.

 

The platform is brilliant though, light years ahead of anything we have in SA.
