Thoughts

A four day week due to the late summer bank holiday.

Equity markets sold off on Thursday, with the FTSE breaking below 5800 on Friday morning, before rallying to 5900, then falling back as the US markets sold off. 

Over the week the index lost 2.76 %. 

Perhaps the market wants to retest the recent lows.

Volatile trading conditions, made some poor entries & exits.

Hopefully better trading next week.

Stay disciplined.
Stay focussed.
Stay humble.
