My guess is they take candle up from here and then drops hard later on. If I am wrong it shoots to 10,200 take or give depending on Yellen speech. I have no position open now.

What is the best timeframe to trade the dax on ?
I'd say it depends on your own approach, ie, how long you keep trades open for, what sized stop loss you use, how often you trade etc. So there is no definitive answer. However, due to the range of the Dax, and it's volatility, a lot of pips can be made trading the small time frames such as 1 minute. Personally, I have several time frames open all the time.

I use 5, 10, 15 min fram because i scalp DAX gets 10 - 15 points and exit.
It is not a shame to fall .. but shame that we cannot rise

Adding indicators will not make your trading better or more reliable. You need to learn how the market works first, develop a strategy based on your learning then test it for months until you drill the rules into your head, controlling your own psychology and only then can you be reliably profitable.

Remember, slapping indicators on your charts will not help you but rather confuse you. Also keep in mind you are competing for the same dollars as the best and the brightest whose only purpose is to take your money. This is a business do not make it a casino.
