08:30am CET (07:30 UK time)  ~  Back into trading mode this morning, I shall be here at home for most of the day catching up on emails and also doing some charts watching from time to time – although I will be off for a cycle ride at some stage. Although the People’s Bank of [...]

07:55am  UK time  ~  I shall be here at home for most of the day ahead of our trip out to Majorca this evening. We’ve had a change of plan as we’re now going via Barcelona and having a few days there first, so today will probably be my last day of trading for the [...]

09:05am  ~   A late start and a nice easy day at home today ahead of a trip back to Majorca tomorrow. I will report back during the day if I have any trades. London’s FTSE 100 index has opened slightly down this morning despite the stock markets all over the world surging ahead on Friday [...]

07:45am (UK time)  ~  I am here watching charts and catching up on emails this morning and then clay pigeon shooting this afternoon. European equities are generally bullish despite the fact that there is still no agreement between the EU and Greece over their repayment of debts. It seems as though there is still a [...]

07:25am  ~  An early start for me today as I am taking two of my cars for MOT’s but I will then be back here in the study catching up on emails and doing some chart watching. I am going to start my market update today with Brent Crude as it’s the first chart I’ve [...]

08:25am  ~  Today is definitely going to be spent at home catching up on emails as I was unexpectedly out all of yesterday, so I will report back here later with any trade details. Bit of a late start though as I did not get in until 3am….. Equity markets were generally bullish yesterday despite [...]

07:10am UK time  ~  After 4 days away I am up early and going to have a lazy day at home catching up on emails and Skype calls plus some chart watching as well. Looking at my charts just now I can see that equity markets have been up near record levels and traders took [...]

08:10am (UK time)  ~  A late start for me today and no trading either – I have a few errands to run and then we’re off on a long weekend break until Tuesday. The U.S. S&P500 index came within a whisker of its all time high last night after optimism for a resolution in both [...]

07:45am  (UK time)  ~  A nice quiet day here at home for me today so I will report back later if I have any trades. Equity markets were fairly bullish yesterday after generally optimistic sentiment concerning the crisis in Ukraine and the Greek problems – the U.S. Dow Jones 30 index rallied over 70 points [...]

07:20am  ~  Early start for me today, we are off to look at property in Oulton Broad but first a couple of hours here in the study catching up on emails – not much trading  today I suspect. The main subject of speculation in the markets today is the Greek debt problem that will be [...]
