As for today who really knows? Yes volumes were really thin but what can you expect when the main players (US investment banks) have been given an extra day off (bit non-PC this) fo no real reason - they couldn't even be bothered to programme their black-boxes for the day ;-)
And then there's tomorrow - yesterday (Friday evening actually) those ever reliable British Bulls chaps (not) had Ye Olde Nag down as a sell confirmed. Today apparently two (not one) bullish candlestick patterns have developed that are "highly reliable" (Bullish Kicking & Bullish Morning Star) so you may have lost your stamp, your fees, not to mention the spread and have to buy back more expensively. I believe in Technical Analysis it is called 'tough titties' ;-)
