Originally posted by Whorty View PostThe trend, since the crash caused ONLY by CV19, is flat around the 6000 mark. I get that you don't want that, or even need that, to be the case, but that is the trend. For someone who talks of trends, you conveniently ignore the current trend (for months now) on the FTSE.
blah blah dying of old age.

Originally posted by Paralytic View PostSo, what you are saying (and, its remember, you, and only you, chose where to draw the lines on your chart) is that if this "trend" continues, the "correction" point on your chart could actually end higher than when this actually started started. You really are a laughing stock.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostStudy is great.... my put confidence took another boost. Had an alarm on the dollar index (the value of the dollar against a basket of other popular currencies).
Dollar breaks out of its downtrend, price action now diverging with volatility (bottom box).
We're on the very of a huge market event - so exciting.
Originally posted by Old Greg View PostThread started on 21 Feb 2018. FTSE 100 was 7282. Your chart shows a higher figure. Why is that?Originally posted by scooterscot View PostIt is a monthly chart. The candle I'm marking out includes both values. I suppose I could have pointed the arrow a little lower.
Pedant.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostNo it doesn't. The bottom of the candle you point to is above the 7350 line. Why don't you just engage honestly and accurately?

These are end of month positions. Within months the FTSE is floating above and below 6000. I can't be arsed to do the calcs, but I'd be pretty sure that if we tested the daily position against an average of 6000 during this period, we could conclude that 6000 is the mean.
Your constant narrative that the FTSE trend is down and going to hit 4500 or lower is false.Last edited by Whorty; 28 September 2020, 12:35.I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter manComment

Japan'''s little-known Nikkei 500 hits record high, outperforms U.S. S&P 500
Mentioned the Japanese market a few times here. As I said before, my IT(BGS) is performing stella.
Top fund managers, good previous performance in a country that unlike us, had handled covid well. I already had it in my portfolio, but increased % after selling my emerging markets IT(JMG) due to India exposure.
As no one has a view on any market apart from the FTSE and S&P500, just pointing out there are others.Comment
