DAX long @ 9931, SL we'll see, TP 9995.
Exit @ 9908, -23 pts, max floating -150 pts -- an invalid trade taking this big risk

Yeah.. anyone can help and comment how can such price action develop? I mean a 200 point pull-up in the last 30 mins? NYSE investors suddenly realize it's time to buy?

It has nothing to do with the price action concept, at the moment.

this is what i call "crazy-hour". it happens frequently. fast and strong moves. why? big/smart money often enters during the last hour (insti´s like pensions funds, insurances, mutual funds) when they see a mid/long-term (years) buying opportunity beside of the future market which is mainly dominated by the algos/hedge funds (many of them with short term speculations). if so (when big money enters the cash market) short term speculations in the future market turns around and we see an intraday-reversal. vice versa when markets tend to panic and futures drive cash markets with high volume (f.e. during the so-called "flash-crash"). also, we could see a seasonal effect now (re-investment of payed but not invested dividends of the instis)

DAX, Short @ 9'900 (2x)
Trend is still down for the time being. A few pops up along the way so on the nice pop days it is good to short. Above 9950 were good short opportunities.

The old Dr Copper, the base metal that gives a signal of the strength of world economic growth due to its multipurpose use in construction, electronics, cars, etc has now dropped below USD2/lb; which it hasn't done since the 2008/2009 crisis. Oil also has also dropped to USD30/bbl too, an 11 year low, with the possibility to break lower. This will no doubt cause selling on Indices such as the ASX200 and FTSE with their large natural resources exposures. I'm not sure if this will cause selling on the Dax in the early session when it opens, but I expect selling on NYSE once it opens due to its large Energy Sector, which will drag down the Dax later in the session I feel.
