Quote from Mcgcapital on 8th December 2017, 3:39 pmThey seem to always squeeze shorts on days like today. BoE meeting, budget day and EU deal day. This morning I was too focused on sterling and forgot that they'd spin it positively for the domestically exposed stocks. That being said, still has a b wave feel across the board rather than a new up leg. Obviously needs to hold 7400 for that to stay the case, and the sooner it's back under 7370 the better

Quote from Candlemaster on 8th December 2017, 4:55 pmCorrection...GBP looks weak...will buy FTSE at 4.29 hoping theres a pullback there. I reckon its set up to squeeze the bears on Monday. Deal me in. All the money on red 29.

Quote from Mcgcapital on 8th December 2017, 5:32 pmLooks like another ridiculous short squeeze to me. I don't trust this ramp one bit. But I can't short it now as no set up for me. See chart attached... looks like top of channel test

No it's very difficult when you're going against the trend all day.. that's 2 days this week I've done it, thankfully stops kept the damage limited and the other days was able to get on some nice moves. I'm shorting more than longing at the min as the overall trend is down.. issue is determining when that changes. I'd say if that trendline is taken out on Monday at 7415 area then it's done. It doesn't really fit that well with what I saw on SPX but that's the reality, sometimes it just does that. Is today any different to some of the other huge ramps we've had.. that's the characteristic of downtrends, often they do that which makes shorting them difficult
