Topi new highs around the corner

We are out of the starting blocks on our way to new highs here. Catalyst is for the FTSE to break the 5600 level, and then all roads will lead to prosperity (except for those who are short, of course)

on the contrary... nothing a bear likes more than a double top and even better to put market in free fall from the very top = longer drop!

At least when the drop comes, it's bankable. The pattern has repeated many times - when one EU issue is sorted, the bond traders focus on another. So unless the solution-of-the-week looks like the final answer, I wait until we near the highs and then start adding ALMI shorts.

On the other hand, if it's in no-mans-land and the EU looks like they're ramping up an idea, long is generally a better place to be.

Just a gap close - with FTSE still to close its gap.

Watch the Italian 10-year bond. If it stays above 7% for an extended time, I'm personally selling the bounces. I sold some today, will add more when we get above 29500-ish. Seriously, bring on the all-time highs.
