My not entirely reliable memory suggests to me that DAX futures volume usually shifts on a Thursday...

Update : having "fluked" the equivalent of +40 FDXM points as mentioned above and as it's FOMC later, I'll be back tomorrow.

Good trading everybody

Most brokers don't let trade June expiration starting today, and so only Institutionals will keep trading June expiration till friday morning (13CET the definitive expiration)

No change in the european afternoon for Sept futures spread.
So I can't take risk today with US FED meeting later.
Stop trading and saved +19 FDAX pips for today.

jtrade , what website, broker are you using to get access to MDAX, one written in English from the UK will be preferable.

'Morning

It was FDAX I traded by mistake yesterday, not MDAX - Dutchy D trades MDAX, if I understand him correctly. I checked MDAX out at the DB site (Ich habe Deutsch in der Schule gerlernt... a long, long time ago) https://boerse-express.com/boerse/ma...ax-db-16/chart

I use NinjaTrader's own brokerage in the US (formerly Mirus Futures, who I had been with for years). It seems to be the US brokers who offer (relatively) low intraday margins on FDXM & FDAX, unlike most of their EU counterparts.

In other news ... thanks for the Midnight Oil link, which I'd forgotten about. Yesterday, I cranked up the volume for an Aussie rock evening : Midnight Oil, INXS & Men at Work ... my daughter came in and said "Ïf you play it that loud you'll go deaf!"... "I'm already half deaf", I replied...

All Asian markets in red this morning and BCE is coming next hours.....

Strict narrow range for European indices yd preparing the ground for possible fireworks today and tomorrow there are index/futures expiration.

So a potential explosive mix.

This morning I will watch if spread on Sept futures is normal or not and then I have only 2 levels to watch:
825 zone as support and 880 as resistance, but in BCE daytrade the range in the afternoon can exceed easily 300/400 pips as history repeat itself.

I don't really understand why Estoxx futures have the same spread both on June and Sept futures since 2 days while FDAX/FDXM Sept have big spread the day before the June expiration.
It's impossible to trade DAX futures today with this dangerous daytrade on sight.

2 options for me: no trade today or trade FESX(Estoxx futures Sept): probably the 2nd.....

Nice opening trade; I just tried to short 803 (yellow dot), but no fill as spread still 2-3.

I am studying Dutchy D's interesting use of % levels - & I do not know if my transposition from cash to futures is precisely correct - but if it is, the swing off the LO was exact to the tick just now :

Agreed - & he wins the prize for by far the most beautiful & well-presented charts as well !

... & the Dutch must be forgiven, for imho it is as big a tragedy for the world of football that there is no Netherlands team in the WC as it is for no Italy (although as I have said many times before, I STILL have not forgiven the Dutch team for losing in '74...).
