Yesterday losses were around -2.41% for DAX but today I reckon DAX gains over 2%. Buy on any dips when pre-market opens

interesting divergence between Dax and Dow. I see buyers in Dow, but not so convincing in Dax, at least some reasonable resistance.

Agreed - I guess that you've also seen that Dow has made several attempts to breakout above yesterday's highs ~ 16,230 cash and failed every time......

It's one of those pesky zones. Patience.

This depends on your definition of "after-hours"

Deltaone only works with the Dax Cash Index which opens in Frankfurt at 9am CET (8am GMT) and closes at 5:30 pm CET.

The Dax Futures open on the Eurex Exchange at 8am CET and close at 22:00 CET and many retail brokers offer cash priced Cfds during this period.

There are some brokers who offer synthetic pricing outside of these hours - often with huge spreads - and why anyone would attempt to trade these when the Dow Globex priced Cfds are available is beyond my comprehension!

The Dow is acting as a prop on Dax. Sellers hiding until clarity emerges. Buyers wanting better entries.
I am wondering if CPI at 1000 gmt will spice things up. If not I might just go play with my old Seagull outboard - get it ready for summer.

Dax is ranging between its 38% and 61% retraces of its last fall on my 15m chart.....Dow keeps hitting on its 100% level......and its another Freaky Friday!

EurUsd is dickering around its 1.0900 BRN - when it moves away we should get a move in Dax.......of course someone may start blathering about an Oil Deal first and that will send both Dow and Dax into another spike....

DOW is spiking up. I suppose this was a fake dip before the push up on the DAX

Dax short 9735. SL at BE
SL now +5. I am not overly hopeful and would rather just take the money than run the risk.

Yes, it moves quicker than I can type, plus FXCM froze me out so was struggling to update

Edit. What I mean is I started with -10 point stop and moved it to 0 as soon as price moved in my favour. Now at +10

SL now being trailed behind waves. I did say I would try to post charts that showed thinking. I have been watching the zone above Dax and Dow recent highs and more importantly how price reacted to each incursion. Each time for Dax and to some extent Downit has been with some severity suggestion strong selling. If that holds true I hope for a decent run from this. I was just worried my entrance was a bit late and would get stopped out. Working on 10 point stops is not easy.

Closed for 37.5 points as hit 61.8 fib and Dow seems to be holding its own at R1. I suspect I am too early and may enter again if it looks good but we are heading into Euro coffee break.

Well you got 9800 so all good.
I did enter again but badly and got stopped out for flat so missed this last leg. It's beginning to look quite good.

It's the last option for the bar in this month.
What would be the result if the body?
