Trading the SPI


Nathan

You have the right times...
I am using an "Orange Pocket Watch" again
it's approx $150.00 a month which seems expensive
but it quickly pays of it's self as $150 is just 6 points
which the SPI can move in a blink.

As Bronte said there is about a 8 second delay though
(although some other pager based systems are much worse).

I'm looking at a 3G based phone which I believe is supposed
to be real time.

The worst thing about things like pocket watch is you get can addicted to it
I used to have mine in bed! Drove my wife crazy with it flashing and beeping
as stops went off on Sycom
 
Hehe!
Ours are definitely banned from the games room
I suppose expensive just to have for shopping.
My first NewsPager cost me $1000 just to buy it
That was over ten years ago now
 
what an insipid market ... back where it started!! ... a rate rise is expected ... has the market already priced this in?
 
i was wondering ,since sp500 and the dow had small range days and an inside bar on dailies ,is our market following and waiting for tonight for direction one way or the other ,Nathan
 
Todays 5 mins SPI Chart.....

It's a bit like a bad car wreck.

Horrifying to see, but you just can't stop yourself looking.

(Joke folks)
 
Was like a jumping jack today.

I think the market has already factored in a rate rise though.

I think the US Market is waiting for the personal income and outlays £'s tonight, that's why it wad dead.

These numbers are impotant for the perception of whether the fed will pause or not.... and the market (ignoring all other more important data) is hanging its hat on a pause FFS.

Not positions at the moment ... it's taken a good whack ... wasn't keen on taking a long and the short looked tempting but couldn't pull the trigger ... let's see if it finds support after the first 30min
