You'd still think the eventual move at the off may be more likely to be a drop - but it's The Monster...it's Friday...who knows.

We'll find out in 6 mins.

Well, got the Short entry I was expecting - I don't care if it was short-lived, so long as it dropped far enough to bag the percents for me...and it did, easily...

DAX-Monster 06:00 - 08:00 (Done WZ Short into the Body) +5% +++

One of the things that gave me pause for a sustained Short move, was that on the last H1 bar (the second of the 2-Bar block), I was looking at an Engulfing Bar and so would be looking at that to give a continuation move Long.

As it turned out, that's what happened...

Well, folks, I'm probably going to call it there for the day. Not going to start scalping, as I will get a run going and I want to get out-and-about today (the sun is shining!).

We'll see - but for now, I'm going to leave you to it.

Trade well all who stick around.

Rock solid.

H1 still worth paying attention to as well, especially if you have something else to back the play.

most definitely,
The reason i very very rarely use 1 hour inside/outside bars is inconsistency.
But like you say if you have something else to back play. use it.

But i do have a feeling with Dax and lower time frame, i will hopefully check it out...

We use spread-bet firms. That means we trade a stipulated cash amount...ie, we will bet £20 or £100, or whatever, per pip movement.

The main reason stopping traders trading the DAX, the ES, or similar markets, is that outside of spread-betting firms, there is normally a requirement for a minimum account size, say £50,000 before you are able to trade it.

Good call leaving The DAX today. The smallest range in donkey's - outside of stupid Sunday ''bars''. Back to the sunshine.
