{quote} I am wondering why though the DAX did not lose as much today as it probably should have. Did not follow US indices as much today as it usually does for some odd reason
You'd have to dig down deeper into stocks the DAX is made of. I think some banks and carmakers did rather better than expected while the DOW was dragged down by Walt Disney and Apple.
Don't get mad, get even!

That is very true. Huge demand abroad for German cars. I will be shorting the pops today. I reckon if anything we head up first today and drop after.

Today is Thursday which is the famous roller coaster day. Either a big up followed by a big down or big down followed by a reversal...

DAX
...let's see if the weekly candle will turn into black or the monthly one into a white body.
...all directions seems possible.
...not the time for swinging trades for me, maybe some scalping here & there.
(on one of my 10-K-accounts is running a hedging order since yet @ 9'890, 1 Lot. Hedging (most often it is underrated) could be a great deal by using it in a right way).
I wish you green & happy pips!

I am so pissed Fuck Forex!! I had opened a short order and when price was at 9907 I hit the sell button manually as it ranged between 9905-9907 but Fucking Forex executed them at 9917-9918 I knew something was wrong because it freakin paused during the trade execution after it cleared to show me my balance. I pretty much missed out on over $3.5K

With that kind of cash you should play with a better broker. I'm with Pepperstone and never had such slippage happen to me.

...misadressing seems to be a market concept by big captial players
...to lay a false tray seems a psychological momentum in forex trading.,
it's a reality show.
sh*t happens!
next chance will come!

I'm quite happy with Interactive Brokers. I almost always use Market Orders to enter a Trade and I've never experienced something like that.
