    Believe me, the market is using technicals with the fundamentals giving the general direction.
    Why else would the FTSE retrace to the 38.2 retracement of the last price swing which is also the monthly S2 pivot and daily S2 pivot?

      Santa and HAB make me laugh. It's the result of a narrow technical training and lack of real education.

        It's human nature to see patterns where there are none.
        You need a course in probability theory.

          Is woolworths up today? Is it in the FTSE? Sir Alan buying must have helped?

            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                Are you OK CyberMan - its not like you to be pessimistic ?

                The thing is - it takes a wee while for rate cuts to have an effect. They couldnt do this a year ago because of concerns about inflation.

                My advice is to transcend the mundane duality of Buying and Selling and take refuge in Heaven.
