{quote} Hello Delta Another great trade! May I ask what sort of system entry criteria you look at? It looked like it was the bottom of a huge sell off.....you had confidence of another 60 points lower. Great call, wondering if you could shed some light on your system?
thanks. i will answer in more detail when i have the time.

{quote} Long term = As long as daily/H4 candles continue to paint bearish patterns or when I start to get uncomfy holding to shorts. To be honest, DAX wasn't on my list this week but got sucked in after I couldn't ignore the nice bearish engulfing on weekly (GMT) and its paying off handsomely. Regret I missed taking on CAC40. Maybe next time.
Sounds great, please post some CAC40 trades (or start a thread), the more variety the better

Nice, how come you got a low @ 17287?
I might have had a go myself at the 17300 double bottom on the cash market but I was too busy trying to find Leftfield, Phat Planet for inspirational trading music
Edit: looks like you are trading March futures?

And there in lies the problem . I can either post or trade. Not good at doing both. Either of the two will suffer. Anyways, I'll probably try to come up with something if I can.

each big fall / correction in NASDAQ, DJI equals to about %9-13 decline (if you look at the last 4 years)

Morning folks!!

Stepping out for the first half of the day. But here are some charts.

30 mins: Looks imminent that 9413 will be tested. Exiting one unit of short at this level.

1hr: Bounce from 9413 could see the support at y'days pivot 9568 being tested for resistance. Break of 9413 could see 9258, the next support level.

Daily: Yesterday formed a doji. So i'd be wary of taking any new short positions. Second position which I shorted from 9568 is trading just above the H1's shooting star like high. Aiming for 9000 round number.

Morning all. By the looks of the H1 chart, we should be in for an up day today. Having risen at the German open, I'm looking at the 15m 200E/S which are together, with the 61.8% fib just above anchored from the higher of the two lows yesterday. This level could well offer temporary resistance, bringing it down a bit for a second rally back up towards 9640. That's my take on it anyhow.Good luck!
