You trade CFDs right?
Who is your Broker? I'm with Interactive Brokers and I've always thought their Rates/Fees are quite competitive.
For DAX CFDs they have 1 cent increments. So lets say I bought at 13505 (to trade one contract I pay €1). If I trade the way you do I would place my target at 13535 and my Stop at 12995. If my Stop gets triggered it wont execute at 12995, but rather 12994.56 or 12994.12 or something like that. Plus I will have to pay €1 for each trade. So if I place my stop 10 Points below my Buy Order I will lose 12-13 Euros. And of course if my Profit gets hit with +30 Points, I will only make €28.

Thats why I prefer to trade Futures.

yes. ig. you might check their conditions. calculation is a little bit different.
one reason: no flat rate withholding tax on each trade gives me extra liquidity during the calendar year.
plus good tools, esp. for automated trading. plus some other reasons.
if it ain´t broke, don´t fix it.
but to each his own.
good luck.

So, one point is €25? That's the lowest I can trade with IG?

No, there are Mini contracts, smallest I have on my IG account is AUD$1 per pt. Go to Indices (mini) section.
