Today was my golden day. No complications or bumps while sliding and climbing up with no looking back. Used to have roller coaster rides of selling and buying and buying and selling constantly, no such thing happened. No way was given to re-enter while sliding. similarly no scope was left to re-enter while climbing. It was by pure luck I went by their design and told my brain to shut up. Time to slide: Just don't look back. Time to climb: Just don't look back.{image}
Happy for you Simnz, day as today could be a paradise or the hell for a trader!!!!

170 for 220 and then if 220 holds up to 280 zone....this is the game in place now.

But I had no balls to go long from 190 /200 zone for now.............

It was my golden day because I rode both down and up waves without getting greedy. Kept the portions of same size.
I was afraid if I get greedy I may run into margin problems if suddenly the market decides to switch roller coaster on.
Luckily no such thing happened and gains just for today are 7.5% and recovered drawdown of Tuesday 7.5%. Total gain in 1 day: 15% never seen such a gain
except during times of Brexit while trading GBPJPY.
I think it is due to luck that the brain obeyed me and I followed the market down and up taking profits constantly and entering again and again after losing space by 10 pips. The relay race continued.

I have a strong feeling after putting scare into all put sellers now they will target call sellers.
15,400 is my feeling with no basis. In fact, no one can really have a basis unless he/she is from the billionaire's club.

Day as today, it happens once a month, maybe 2 times.....last time was on 25 March.
So we are talking of exceptional day trade, probably tomorrow they will stay in quiet 100 pts range......

and Yes, after 400 pts rally last 5 hours, they made a great job....very difficult to catch in full for a day trader as me. I can only take one little piece of the cake.....

1st recovery day after many free fall days for SEMICONDUCTORS and Nasdaq, that never hit on official session yd lows, is happy now!!!!
So all the deep red we saw on US Futures this morning was only a trap to scare markets, and to buy lower the most they can........

I haven't seen so far fractional price on FDXM from my Bank/Broker.
FDAX, FDXM and MICRO are all on same way, no fraction.

So when I talk 1 pip I mean 1 tick = 1 point. And I'm good this way.

In view of your chart, I review my basis.
I think it will be a sideways market until tomorrow's option maturity capping at 14250.
Next week will start on a bright note.

I have exited all my Dax positions and have invested the proceeds into buying Spx Call options and financed by selling of put options. It requires margin because of Put selling is involved. I am reluctant to invest in Calls buying as an element of time decay is involved. By selling Puts of same strike price I have covered the risk of time decay.

Flat market or Bull market will benefit me. Bear market will harm me.

I am hoping while Dax twiddles its thumbs (consolidates) SPX might show good results for me.
I received premium of - 12.75 per contract and my target is to get out at -6.00 which means profit will be 50% by buying back the combo legs.
Expiry is on May 24 . I hope to exit at the earliest.

it depends on the market and contract. DAX CFDs i trade have 20 pips per point, so minimum tick is 0.05
XETRA spot dax has 100 ticks per point.
there are now three different futures contracts on the dax, but – i don't know if i'm correct here – they all have minimum ticksize of 1 point.

Actually, I should not have written the post on the this thread. Sorry, Brixen.
