I bought what I perceived as a failed triple break short @ 946.50, dumped very quickly at -4 ticks, re-entered at 43.5 a moment later - 2B formation - but, as with most counter-trend trades, exited quickly @ +14.

Yes CT trading can be dangerous to your wealth (not to mention your health) but you came out + overall and that's the main thing. I'm the worlds worst CT trader so I don't do it.

I hear you, handy : I just put a Stop Limit order at 40 after the low of the day broke to 37, but it didn't fill (I use a 1 tick negative offset, so this will happen from time to time); it has reached +20 so far. When these SL orders don't fill, I cancel them within about 30 seconds.... but the point of this post is that being CT, I would have immediately moved my Stop 2 ticks below the Low, so assuming 2 ticks slippage, 8 ticks of risk, which is very small for FDAX.

Edit : to put my trading style into football terms, I aim to trade like Mourinho : defensive, boring (these days, he didn't use to be), but occasionally score a good goal.

Haha... unfortunately, not even close

...and whilst on the subject of Dutch football, I've said it many times before and I'll say it again : I STILL haven't forgiven NL for losing the World Cup Final in '74 <arms folded> (clearly, at this point I never will).

Dog walk time for me...
