Anyone else want to chip in with their H1 200ema Germany 30 DFB level, because if we're all working off different MA levels we're going to be all over the place. My charts are supplied by IG Finance and are those used by the majority of banks and trading houses.

ps - I use two brokers, both supplying charts by IT finance. Their charts differ a wee bit, but nothing significant, eg, One shows the H1 200ema currently at 10,768, the other at 10,760.

Jeeze what a cluster... no wonder my some of my trades have gone slightly pearshaped.... I will clarify this now with my provider and see what comes out of the rinse.
Thanks,

Well all I can say is that I trust my charts - If some of you guys are showing levels for the H1 200ema way down in the 106s, what MA do you have as having held the price around 107.65 from Friday evening until the drop this morning?

Kiwi, you want to make sure you have the charts for the Dax 30 Daily Futures Bet ( DFB) or rolling daily, otherwise you're going to be looking at a different futures projection, hence the different MA levels to the rest of us.

GM - just passing by - IG charts are 24 hour whereas most MT4 charts are from 7am GMT until 21:00 GMT ( 14 hours), so any longer term EA will be different.....

That would explain it! Anyone using charts which do not include 24 hour data, ditch them, because your moving averages are going to be a joke at the open, when you most need them.

Well tried altering to Default 24/7 session templates and managed to get the EMA200 up to the 10660 mark but still nothing further.
Will have to wait to see what data providers come back with and take it from there.
Thanks for input thus far.
