A trade which I forgot to post on Twitter.. probably a good thing as it was a loser but it was so very close to a winner! Anyway, I thought this was an interesting trade. I've posted this showing a 4 hour chart but I actually took the trade from the Daily, you can see the support area (in blue) more clearly. I went long the FTSE at 6589 see that there had been two days of falls and we were going to fall and hit support soon. Although support was at around 6560, I actually had my stop at 6540

This was most annoying. I had sold the DOW last night as you know with a 50 point stop and target. The price moved up and took out my stop before it plumetted.. it would have hit my target as you can see nicely. It's always difficult to know where to put your stop.. it can always be either too tight or too far away.. you just have to stick to your plan.
In fact, I think in the coming days we may see lower prices.. all markets seem primed to move lower but they will do what they need to do
