A-ha, enjoy.

I was meaning to ask you, I can only get 250 lots (indices) max with ICmarkets. You had 800 on right? How did you manage that... special dispensation?

I would have thought even with a pro account you’d get 500 tops. I am seriously out of date with regulatory retail trading laws.

As an aside, short term volatility is very low again. I expect it will rebound and we will get a small-med buying opportunity next week (probably max 1% drop). Possibly a few of them with news upcoming.

Volatility rebounds are key everyone :-)

800 after closing 400 here

question: what would be the equivalent to 1 future (YM, CBOT´s E-mini Dow)?

Thanks you all for your posts ... I am learning a lot!!

Long dax at 13075

Reduced risk to 50%. Time to be cautious with US-China news, ECB policy and UK elections.

Good news: short term volatility is nearly peaking, it may increase a bit more but I expect it will drop in 24-48 hours (famous last words).

Conversely, momentum is low and should rebound shortly too. Meaning we get bullish price action.

Caveat: bad news could throw this all off track.

Charts have started the week bearish. Lower highs, really need to break some new highs this week to be overall bullish.

You know not that i would know..BUT and purely tech wise the day chart looks like a topping pattern to me..22 days topping then a reversal candle and now 5 small range days in side the reversal candle..MMM me i am short as of the open last night.. just my opinion of course.. this is all a bit like the KING who wore no clothes

I don’t disagree... looks like there’s a little push up and another drop coming.

If highs don’t get broken this week I think we are on the way down. Gold looks set to rise, VIX is getting more volatile every day.

DAX seems to have formed a range between 13050 and 13185 (on the 4 hr chart). Could stay there for a while, like it did in a similar range most of November. But agree with Dan and Neo that it does look like it is topping out.....

Trailed to 12960 (screwed up a little there, made it a little too tight) and now taken out.
