{quote} flat stop
seems so - long again 10684 - DAX looks oversold to me for now - last one for today -30 point stop - if that does not hold then I pack up for another day.

looking for a bounce - if no bounce in US afternoon then so be it - I expect that they take out the previous low by tomorrow by 60-90points to wash out the stops and then I assume some miraculous good news will come out from the IMF to support the deal and then the Greece banks can be reflated etc - blah blah and Oopps traders on holidays get washed out

worse case it is straight down into the 10300 zone this week and yeah I would be all over that.. for now trading light until I can see some sort of conviction..

Jackson hole next Friday - markets will probably try and stabilise into that.. see if the wisemen come out with something magic.

They'll probably come out with the same old BS magic of making loads of money out of thin air
Which calendar do you use to see so far into the future? thanks
used to be undecided but nowadays can't make my mind up

I scroll through Forexfactory calendar forward a couple of weeks every few days to remind myself what potential traps are coming.

Long added 10672 - flat stopped - Now average 10692 - that's it for me - VIX drop please and give us a breather until FED minutes and see what other USD related mumbo jumbo they say in there.

Positions 10672 - Flat stopped
10684 - Flat stopped
10710 - stop 10630 - only will hold into tomorrow if today break back above 10770 - which seems unlikely which VIX almost 16 probably going to 17 tomorrow to be crushed again - lets hope - and there I hope to get a good long tomorrow

Holding in there - nearly got stopped on that 10684 trade... I am looking for a bounce to 10740 and then 10790 would be great.

Ideally we would retest 11.000 and then go to 10.000.

FOMC rate Hike pushed out - lets go equities - need a break on DAX above 10740

holding those Lows - Now in profit for the day - FOMC such a pain to trade. - hoping we break higher into the close
