Fair comments, hope you stick around. Added more at 29.4k. It’s buying in a bit ‘high’ - price is at its 20 day average, however, the market looks nothing but good at present (so, let’s watch it tank immediately!)
Best of luck dude.

Only with fraternal intentions. That is a professional debate.
This is the collage of my trades on the last DAX move.
(the initial position only!)
I followed down and then up.

In linear points... which strategy made the major number of Points?. Mathematics is not an opinion!
Which one is safer and more profitable?

The call for the reversal up @710 area was made LIVE on Piquant journal, Friday evening.

This is not a debate made today.
It has already been done hundreds of times in the History of Trading.
There is not a single way of making money in the market.
But one is DEFINITELY safer and more profitable.

With all the due respect to all. Mine is pure theoretical speculation.
Just to defend my personal opinion and point of view.

{quote} Your ineptitude, complete lack of risk management, gambling mentality and arrogance has no place in retail trading, as it will destroy many many more traders than it makes. Yes, you have plenty of sycophants and hangers on here that we can all see, all hoping in vain to learn something from you, but they never will for you rely on luck and gambling. For that, in terms of the damage you do to newbie traders, you are dangerous, not talented, just dangerous. Good luck, you will always need plenty of it.

hi angifactor66,

sorry had been afk. if your broker offers 24/5 price feed, you could have closed that already. if not, only ca. 25 points missing atm, easy doing for dax in the xetra-opening - ofc. only in my book.

donīt get me wrong, but itīs not my job to judge every of your (or someone else) trades. for me, trend is up and so long is my direction. you bought the top and hoped for continuation. now that you are in and xetra-open is not in your favour, you should ask yourself if itīs right or wrong. i would hold it since i see dax at 14.000 - most likely not today although dax is mostly green on days when nyse is closed.

Don't want to really engage in this debate here, as there is no right and wrong answer in trading...

However, for the new traders who want to follow D1's calls, I would suggest pretending that each of his trade calls has "SL20, TP 60" written at the end of it, like they used to. Follow it that way. From what I see, his entries haven't changed, the only thing he doesn't do anymore is use a SL.... (D1, correct me if I am mistaken here).

Few months back i opened a $10 mil demo to test out deep pocket strategy. All i did was keep buying as it fell down and close whenever i cared. The account is at $75 mil now.

D1's entries may not be the best, may seem reckless even, suffer big floating losses and he seems unfazed. This is where he shines imo. It takes some nerves what he does. Every penny he makes in this environment is truly deserved.

Delta, it was not my intention to provoke this whole discussion and feel i have to explain it better!!
My writing was directed to someone suggesting me being an Arschlecker (sycophant) and dumb enough to trade long on an upside down chart!!
So i actually did not follow you long (good advised by an anti-Delta critic??) and to my bad luck!!
If I had followed, I would have been in profit!! Hope I make better sense now and thanks to all the good advice given by all the others!
I will learn more and keep to the rules in future!!
