Miata.

You must really be suffering in your trade. The chart is a disaster!

Could it be a year of two halves? Up one half, down the other?!

Either way this is deadly. It will take you a long time to get your money back on this sucker!

It doesn't synchronise, buyers and sellers arbitrage it according to the way they feel it will move. If it becomes cheaper than the market they will buy it (unless they feel the market is about to fall) and vice versa.

MOC (Market On Close) orders constitute the big volume in the general market, so, to an extent, this is when it is likely to appear most in sync.

Why doesnt it synchronize sometimes and takes so long?

FTSE is -0.25% and SUK2 has been on +0.06% for almost an hour, while it should have been theoretically at +0.5%

are there specific times it synchronizes? something we should look for?

Look with money printing, unlimited, money being effectively given to the banks at .25% to recapitalize them, they put that money into stocks to make hundreds of percent from cap growth and income, the markets will rise and rise.
The City is done with doom and gloom.

Suk2 is for suckers in such an environment.

How unlucky can one bloke be? Surely the law of averages says he will have a winning punt at some point?

[diku] 29/1/2013 23:21

Think a rise to 2600p very soon....

[goalkeeper] 29/1/2013 22:15

abc125
sadly he is here

[abc125] 29/1/2013 21:58

You still holding scottie? The 6 month suk2 chart looks like a downhill slalom ski slope.

[fxscotland] 29/1/2013 16:43

for this to reach zero the FTSE would need to go up forever...

[2ngh] 29/1/2013 15:38

Looks like 6500 ftse coming and 2200 here.

Could be tempted then.

[budevenwiser] 29/1/2013 15:33

This will end when it reaches one big fat zero

[fxscotland] 29/1/2013 08:59

this will bounce but it may be into February...

[2ngh] 29/1/2013 08:34

Many suggest the markets could run up another 3% before taking a breather which would see 2300 area a good place to start hedging.

Any thoughts?

[chillwill] 28/1/2013 15:08

Market can stay irrational longer than you can stay liquid.

I think with SUK2 you're best bet is trying to grab a quick few percent while you've gone into cash after a decent market rise. Better than doing nothing with the cash, but then on the flip side, chasing those few percent could cost you an awful lot!

[fxscotland] 28/1/2013 14:01

yes until it doens't. and we don't control when that is ! when the big boys start selling this will rise ...but thats upto them. like a leaf on a river we will just get thrown about

[blondeamon] 28/1/2013 10:52

many people think that but reality so far defies logic. until it doesnt.

[budevenwiser] 28/1/2013 09:15

well I dont know about anyone else but i have the footsie as the most overbought in 5 years and well over 500 points above its 200 dma which is looking rather stretched .
anyone else have any thoughts regarding this
bud

[shugsy] 25/1/2013 19:02

Might it be time to start buying some of these?

Looks like capitulation......

[blondeamon] 25/1/2013 11:21

Incedible, not even GDP affects it. Manipulation all the way.

Who cares

[blondeamon] 24/1/2013 13:45

Just wait. What does history say for ANYTHING that goes up too fast, too hard when the fundamentals are all wrong?

We are just a bad event away from going back to 5800. In the meanwhile, it will be painful to watch.

Although I do believe the reversal starts today when NYSE opens with AAPL down 10%. That will slow down the FTSE for today.

[fxscotland] 24/1/2013 13:04

so does this just go down forever then ?

[buffett100bln] 24/1/2013 08:08

That counts out everyone on here then quite obviously lol
