    Good question.  I don't know why Ocado is valued so highly.  They don't even deliver to the whole of the UK!

    Maybe some of you 'fundamental analysis' jack-an-apes could step in to explain it :D:D:D:D:D

     I broadly agree with the OP that learning to trade is a process and there is no off/on switch.

     

     

    By 'learning to trade' do you mean losing money year after year, when a simple buy and hold S&P 500 ETF would make 7 - 9% annualized returns?

    If so, 'learning to trade' sounds like something only a stupid person (for example, a retail punter who thinks he can get 30% returns consistently year after year) would fall for.

    No wonder the only people making money are the ones selling training courses and other cr@p to retail punters :D

  3. If you've got the money, natural gas has been a great market to trade for the last few months.  I've lost money on it, because I was trying to TRADE it and using stops to preserve my little pool of capital.

    You need to have REAL money and PROPERLY SIZED stops and STAYING POWER to take part in this game.

    No wonder retail punters get f*ked in the $rse over and over and over again.  Stupid idiots :D

  4. 59% of IG clients are short on this index.

    Most of IG's clients lose money, but I've found that you can't just take a position opposite to them and expect to win reliably.  (This is partly because the number that IG publishes is dubious and might be incorrect, BTW.)

    The fact is that most of IG's retail clients will lose money whether they go long or short.  It's worth paying attention to this number but get it from an alternative source, like DailyFX or program your own thing-a-ma-jig to pull the raw data.  😘

    I fear that my online love affair with the Nikkei may be ending.

     

     

     

     

     

    Yes it is a wildly random market that doesn't lend itself to TA at all.  Maybe those inscrutable Japanese have developed their own methods that the West doesn't know yet?  Certainly the Ichimoku cloud is worse than useless these days.

    BTW, have you been 'consistently profitable' for a period of at least five years?  Maybe TA is not the answer :(

  6. Here is some expert technical analysis for you to enjoy, you lucky cretins :)

    Wall Street hit the magical 88.6% retracement and flopped out!  The MACD is very far above zero and is now about to cross down below the signal line!  An ominous sign indeed!  This suggests momentum is flagging!  And the price is a million light years above its 200 daily MA, so a nice little 'dump' is in order a la 'reversion to the mean'!

    Against this view is the fact that we have price above 20 and 50 MAs and the fact that 20 MA crossed 50 MA.  But those candles don't portend price rises in the future!

  7. I wonder if an extension can monitor you keystrokes while you're trading?  Scary stuff guys

    Remember this is a largely unmoderated forum that lets you post attachments in BAT format (which is a kind of file that executes commands on a Windows system) so don't trust a f*king thing.  BE SAFE - the guys on here are NOT here to help you.

    You are crazier that I thought :D

    Going through every single post I posted to mark it with a sad face is a move that I wasn't expecting. How old are you? fifteen? 

    Just for your information, I never ever marked any of your posts. I simply don't do that. The only move I do is to like it if I do, but there is no way I will select any of those stupid faces to mark a post. Seriously, someone is playing with you big time. 

    I don't care if you keep doing this childish thing, it makes me laugh so you can carry on. Just think about that I am showing myself plainly with every move, and if I don't like something I will tell you straight away with a message, there is no way I am going to add a sad face to a post.

    You have pissed off so many people that now they are playing with you. Well deserved because you are a w4nker, but Detective don't attack the wrong person because that will hurt you even more.
