What I learnt today was this. My first post today was that to me it looked like the Dow was going to fall today. I was right, but, the price spiked up first, knocking my short out, and I reckon a good few other traders. Was this market manipulation to hunt stop losses? I don't know, but it sure looked like it to me. Did I just exit my short too early? obviously yes, but I exited on my 30m 200exponential moving average, which sent the price back up yesterday, so it was a calculated exit, and I'm very happy with that. BTW, as I work nights, I'm only ever here for the New York session, and I shall try and get to my computer by 13.30 London time, or 14.00 at the latest. Hopefully be here tomorrow.
