TOPI sees SPREAD TRIPLE BREAKOUT.Target 27700.FINI on a new BUY as well.Target 8200....However,both are entering a web of resistance. Personally,I shorted another contract today at 26700.And now I wait.If it breaks up further,the above targets will represent next SHORT-area.(and another 2 contracts.)...now let's see where this yo-yo TOPI goes.Fun isn't it.Like playing Space Invaders or PacMan.What does the next screen hold ?

looks like many stocks have broken resistance and the TOPI has traded throuhg 26,733 and 27,100. Platinum stocks have woken up slightly. Retailers are powering ahead, so much for the consumer coming under pressure.

Simon, IIRC from your course on index futures ALSI is always couple of hundred points below TOPI in pure numeric terms, or did I get it wrong?

nope, ALSI being the future should be above Topi as the future always costs more ..

Ja, but Simon, Alsi is a September contract & pretty close to maturity, so the difference between Alsi and TOPI should be minimal?

So how can that be tradable, because it is the direction that matters?
