We are at Extreme Fear - usually a good time to start fading in some low stakes longs - http://money.cnn.com/data/fear-and-greed/

Same.. what a night. Was touching cloth at one point there and broke most of my trading rules.. definitely not comfortable adding to longs when FTSE is down 400 points but usually get the snap back

I think there is a lot to be said for putting a little exploratory trade on first....then if you lose it it's no real damage but you can then add if it goes in your favour ....mental note to extend stop slightly for more headroom..

Hey TCG ...lol...I wondered if you would bite on my Icarus comment.......you didn't dissapoint me did you...lol.....sorry if I touched a nerve and thanks for the entertainment :0)
It was a joke. Similar to the amount of trades you’re throwing on. In these conditions, it’s more profitable to take a view and be patient with it. Taking small amounts here and there is not efficient trading. Best to your trading! Constructive enough?!

I think what is in danger of happenning here is what appears to be a good txt book trade starts to set up......like last night it did look on from 7050 area but we ended up down at 6920 area I think it was.....I'm not convinced longer term swing trades are a good idea with the way the Dow is moving around....any body care to share their views?

Been asleep most of the day lol.. long now, reckon we finish the week in the 7300s. Probably going to remain choppy for a good few weeks after this move

Hope Icarus ditched near the lows, loss wouldn’t have been too bad at that point. Are you still around?

Yeah exhausted.. stayed up all last night monitoring longs. It’s that volatile that we’re setting up good trades multiple times a day and can’t settle in a trade either so it’s tiring to watch. Feel like I need a weekend lol
