Dax in the UK afternoon -broke "Kevin Box, below 50% thingy and below Asia low. Good grounds to short. Finish at 4pm UK time for me.

Just a thought before I get me tea and biscuits before looking for a film on Netflix: Why do people bother with Prop firms like MFF when they can trade Micro Futures on Day Margin ?

Always options...another route that I haven't seen mentioned here is Darwinex Zero and Darwinex Classic... I don't know anymore than surface details
on these firms.

https://www.darwinexzero.com/

But they are more in line with "traditional;"prop firms.. People get caught up in the 75-90% profit split so many companies hype...Whereas traditional splits
are a fraction of that... But you have more or less unlimited scaling with a traditional firm...

I believe profitfarmer was/is quite successful with AxiSelect... which is/was more akin to Darwinex.

These newer firms are very much social media hype driven IMO...Not that success cant be found with them just a different path as well.

I think the biggest thing is to always be bldg your own account never relying on one source of trading income...Even only depositing with your personal broker(s)
only limited funds....Having back up brokers...Perhaps a broker goes down for some black swan unknown reason...and you cant close trades or no stop in place.
Have a back up to hedge the position etc....

These things DO happen best be prepared with a solid plan as your trading hopefully progresses...

Cheers !

Dax roundup. BRN's and Kevin Box and Asia Low. Good session albeit two silly probes long.
And the 5 minute view highlighting silly long attempts.

Back from their Hols, the movers & shakers are running price all around the ballpark setting up new hi's & lows, preparing to feast on them later I imagine.

My day is over now, Asia & Franky, and will now look in to see tomorrow how they ran price into NY and what they then did.
(All a bit of fun also, watching them 'play' around with price.)

Trade well, trade safe folks, new month gives 'em plenty of "new" opportunities to set up their stage plays.

Just looked back -that pair would have been a great UK session trade around 10am UK time. Roadmap channel broke the Bermuda Triangle for a very nice long.

Interesting, t.

At that triangle completion yesterday price rotated for 7 x 15m bars in a Zepp/Inflection with many trying to sell off from its 'completion' maybe, making the aggregation (who knows) more favourtable to pushing buys against the sellers.

All a contemplation in my mind till the structure break favoured buyers then where you mentioned (I was asleep by the way hahaa, not trading NY).

I note the market today came back to that 185.250 from higher (in Asia) and broke through it lol (as many might have hoped for yesterday at that very level).
Still, the regulators are on top of everything as I read on the Prop Thread () so was just good market making business on the GJ imo .

Now, I'm out already for the day on GJ so will just watch what they do with the market now (also some GBP news coming in ½ an hour).

Trade well all, back tomorrow.

The rotation happens around this time everday, this is the Franky / London Close, where traders are closing or trying to close positions,.

Sometimes you get Reversals here, or if the market is still strong, another further push from the US traders who are probably

looking at a mid morning coffee break.

Business completed on the gap from the chart listed in the post above by the market just now.

Chart now looks like this today.

I'm finished & done for the week day, Aussie AFL footy finals begin tonight and tho no dog in the fight for me I'll tune in to watch.

Trade safe folks, edit lol Monday Friday awaits.

My last Dax post for a while since they now seem to be repeats or variations on a trend. Asian Levels etc, BRN's and more levels, "Kevins" and "Zeppelins" - all put in before UK open apart from the "Kevin" Box drawn it at 8am UK time.
Will pop in now and again. But I will be reading more and posting less ( and showing off less)

For the E/J Demo experiment I show the 15 minute chart ( shows Asian levels, Brn's etc etc - usual stuff for me expounded in previous posts. Fascinating how E/J acts around levels if one sits and wait. Demo short shown on 5 minute -dotted line is Asian Low ( thereabouts)
