ALSI 40 Index - Trading the South African All Share Index

ALSI: I note our little legend has lobbed out two zero risk trades this morning for a total of well over 450 pips?! Nice to see the ranges are starting to stretch out also. End of last week the 5 day ADR was just under 400, today its 477 and if these moves continue it should be back over 500.

This means we can probably adjust our daily targets back to the normal 300 pips/day level for next week.

I want to confirm my feed is correct. I was on the H5 contract but have switched to the performance index on XET. I've got 11,518.71 at exactly 09:25:33.

I'll pop £100 in an account here and we can have a poke at it. I will be able to manage my ALSI trades no problem while keeping an eye on the DAX. You game?

DAX: Ok my first take on the chart is its smooth, it reacts beautifully to market profile, given 1 tick is 0.5 (someone please correct me if I have this value incorrect?) it looks great on a 1R chart.

It seems to play 'to the pip' on the live levels I called earlier this week which is encouraging. If I have my tick value correct it look like it chucks out about 220 points of value a day. Trading to 75% of ADR this means we could probably safely target 50+. I owe Simon an apology as I realise I was operating on an incorrect tick value so my charts were in fact displaying a little 'optimism' but are still accurate in trends.

What day are you thinking about doing your live trades? As I would love to fit it in sometime around my Uni.

At the moment I start at 06:30 here in the UK and trade the ALSI most days until around 11am (1pm SA). Then we have a group of about 6 who meet online from about 9am local and I will generally join up with them and trade FX until I'm done. 'Done' is anything from an hour or a few hours. My plan is to continue with the ALSI on the days I am trading and begin to trade the DAX.

Like I did this week, I will simply post as I trade and interact as I am able. I would like to share my actual screen live, which is something I shall look at next week.
