As many had suspected, despite Treasury Secretary Mnuchin’s attempts to broker a trade deal with China, the US may proceed with tariffs against China. While over the weekend wire reports suggested The Trump administration plans to announce within days new trade tariffs on as much as $200 billion in Chinese goods, quoting people familiar with the matter.

Trade issues and their impact on the global economy are likely to dominate investor focus this week.

Such an escalation would likely derail talks with top Chinese officials, currently scheduled in Washington for Sept. 27 and Sept. 28. Now, in a follow up report, the WSJ has confirmed that in light of the Trump's imminent announcement, China is considering declining Trump’s offer of trade talks later this month as Trump's "pressure tactics" aren’t "sitting well" with Beijing, which has repeatedly said it wouldn’t negotiate under threat.

DAX still below my Swing MA line and looks to pull back inside the 2 MA lines channel
Swing Long above 12.125 zone
Swing Short below 11.900 zone.
Between the MA lines scalping
Up targets:
12.200/N POC & GAP to close Sept 4th
Down target 12K -1.0% zone

DOW Still on the Buy side so bullish, but the price is between 2 MA lines. Scalping in that zone.
New Swing long above 26.200 zone
Swing short below 26.100 zone.

NQ on the sell side of the Swing MA line, so I start looking for shorts
7550 is a support level. Maybe shorts below that level.
New Swing long above 7600
Stop & Swing MA lines gathered so no real edge here, but the price is below both of the MA lines.

Waiting for trade tariff news.

New import tariffs (on 200B of Chinese imported goods) are set on 10% so far, because these tariffs will affect the consumer prices directly.
Us consumers will see that on the X-Mass shoppings.

NQ popped above the Swing MA
I will wait with a Long swing trade when price gets above 7540 zone

Maybe a Yesterdays ETH TPO pocket to fill first down to 7500 zone

Possible first target 7600/+1.0% (or higher)

MA lines show for 95% the same levels on each different TF chart. Whether I watch a Renko 10 or Renko 25 DAX chart, the Swing & Stop MA lines show the same levels.
Hi Dutchy

nice new thread!
I have a question about the quoted part above. If I understand correctly, you say that your swing lines show the same levels on different renko charts.
When I was interested in Renko, months ago, I found this very difficult to achieve because, exaggerated example, if there is a 20 pips range and 100 up/down 10 pips renko bars in a row, there is still only one 25 pips renko bar formed, but if there is only 1 up/down 10 pips renko bars then BO, there is also only one 25 renko bar formed.
In these two different cases, the MAs will show something very different (the MAs on the 10pips renko will be very different in the two examples, while the MAs on 25pips renko will be the same in both cases).

Is that part of the 5% MA lines not showing same levels or do you have a particular way to successfully achieve similar MA levels on different renko charts?

cheers

I have/use 3 chart for each market I trade.

Fast (PA) medium and slow chart Renko settings.
I use bars only on the fast PA chart. The other 2 chart show a price line and MA lines.

For example NQ 30/20/13 Renko charts.

The Middle Renko 20 chart is leading in regards to my MA lines. That chart shows everything I need.
MA lines with crossing alerts/%%%/TPOs and therefor my leading chart.
Once I have a good workable MA lines setting on that chart, it will never be changed anymore. Use it for several years now in this way.

The Slow Renko 30 chart I adjust/trim the MA lines just as long untill I got the same levels. Will never plot/show100% the same levels because of different bar calculation(so different data for the MA lines calculation), but overall they look the same.
Just 2 MA lines and a price line as an overall chart to look back a longer period.
I use Slow Renko 30 chart for Swing trades and to determain if the market is Bullis or Bearish in my daytrading perspective. Above or below my Swing MA line = Bullish/Bearish.
A flat Swing MA line means sideways and I wait for a slope up or down to see a (beginning) trend.
I can see the possible swings the market could make. You don't see that on a PA chart

The Fast Renko 13 chart with bars is just for PA and I use no MA lines on that chart.
I use that PA chart to take edgy detailed entries.
Its indeed difficult to get MA lines the same level as the other 2 charts. So I don't.

So on the slow Renko 30 chart I'm not intrested how bars are formed. Just a chart to look from a more further distance
