O really. I had one of them but it was based on the emotional moving average, not the exponential, and I found I got my bollinger bands all mixed up in my wife's stochastics.

I think we might be a bit trapped on the Dax for the next hour or so. We've just found support on the 15m rising 100sma as I thought we might, but we've got resistance now at the high of the day which I don't see us breaking, what's more, yesterday's push up has given us a nice looking diversion with MACD on my hourly chart, which I always pay attention to. We're still pointing up but personally I think we need to fall today before we go up again. We've got Yelen later, and then Dragi this evening, so this will be playing on everyone's mind. Trade carefully

We're a handful of pips away from the Dax H4 200ema, so watch it longs!
this is morning here in Asia Taiwan's Index traded similarly and then just shot up over 1%. I wonder if the DAX will trade in the same way today

Wouldn't surprise me at all especially if we drop a little bit first. I think this afternoon will be an interesting one, remember last Friday!

{quote} in general: yes. but this part of my setup sometimes is variable and depends on the pa - or my emotion instead of this, i could use a trailing stop loss. will think about this, would like to eliminate all emotions from my trading. maybe iīll use an algo for this in the future...
Elimation of emotions!! Sure sounds a good thing to me.

As reagrds the Trailing stop- this sounds like a good plan to me.Have you ever tried this methos and compared results to your fixed targets/?

I generally use Trailing stops of 10 ticks

After 5 days of FTSE and other indices rising they're going to drop the indices to draw in more buyers.

Yesterday the S%P rallied whilst the FTSE and Dax couldn't make any headway, so probably indicats a correction is on the cards.

Too early to tell if this is the start of a major down move.
Looking at 9310 so long as price does not move back above 9370.
