Cheers Can
Exited @ 8503, before it rallied 130 points back up, some huge moves to be had if you can hang onto the reigns :holysheep:
ThingyMajiggy ...
If you can let me know it would help.
How is it you were able to hang on for so long with your latest short DAX trade ? I mean the amount would have been real hard to refuse even at the half way point.
Did you have a strong / firm projection target or was it a case of letting it run and moving stops but not too close.
Appreciate your reply.
Cheers,
Put my orders in and went to bed, easiest way to hold through big movesI get up at around 3-4am for work so I'm only gone for a few hours. I was expecting it to go to new lows by the way the week had run so far, and the way the day had panned out before that, I was just expecting it to be a fair bit lower by the time I got up again, I don't care how it gets there, just thinking ahead and picking what I think are good areas to enter based on that idea Turns out this time my idea was okay, was up a grand or two before I entered that trade, so was looking okay anyway, more luck than anything I think
I'm trying to think about where it'll be in X minutes, hours, days etc. and just trying to get spots that give the least risk for that idea to play out.
Gee whiz, DAX copping another flogging so far tonight hey.
Not wrong, going nicely! just hit 8400, that's 600 points down from where we were 6 days ago, what a beast.
Had a short tonight from 8580 with 1 lot, out @ 8437 just now. +EUR3500
That's all for now, this thing is going nuts, I'm heaps tired tonight so it's probably best to just watch now.
Crikey, I keep looking over at my other screen, this is just collapsing, nearly at 8300 now since I started this postReally thin in the book so something must be going down or someone saying something somewhere.

don't get cocky on these tip top wins.
Nah no way, trading the dax is like being in a cage with a Lion, one false move and it will definitely let you know. It has its tricks but it could rip your head off at any time as well
Am currently long from 8717, 2 lots. Bet that first hour caught a few out!

What a month!
So far a bit over $10,000 tonight and 27k last week
Beats working!

What's the tick value for a DAX CFD?
What ever you want normally goes up in $1 lots for indexes. But I don't think Sam is trading CFDs.
