{quote} I see the POC levels as S/R levels/possible targets These POC levels are often tested next day or some days later. And that is logic, because on these levels most trading took place during that day ...
Hi Dutchy Daxy.

Do you use VAL and VAH values also for DAX?

I day trade /ES and /NQ, and those values are often good entry/exit points. I can find those values for free, but not for DAX, just for /ES and /NQ.
Also, with american futures I watch ONH and ONL, so for example today was nice long entry on /ES from POC, with target on ONH (overhight high, or premarket high).
Hope is dangerous in this game.

Yes I watch Value Area High & Value Are Low on the Daily TPO charts.
There are theories re. VAH and VAL, how to use them. Little complex.
I watch the Cash VAH and VAL only, so not the Overnight (ETH) VAH & VAL.
They are often R/S zones indeed but less important as the Daily and Weekly POC's (in my humble opinion)

I also watch the US ONH and ONL as you do.

All markets look Bullish according to my MA lines.
Looks ready for a pop, but could be wild later on, heading FED news.

DAX still has the Y GAP to close @ 400

DAX and US markets pull back to Y POC's and maybe lower to close their GAPS.

sellers overwhelmed buyers. Look at the pushes downward on daily and weekly charts.

Light trading. 2 lot only each

My MA line US markets on top of each other/gathered.
So, huge chop expected.

DAX Slow MA lines still Bullish

Hi All Hope you did what I said it did last night between 17:30 and 20:00 to place a 'Buy' Dax. I picked up 5072.00 without a loss. hedging the bets. I stopped my greed to take the profit even though, if I carried on it would have given another more than 5000. CiAO Happy trading!

You where close but missed it with 5 points and below.

Yes. I decided to take profit knowing I could have held on for more. But my emotions with being GREEDY in the past with FOREX caused me immense loss. So, if there is enough profit for the day's trading I close all Open trades. If I had left 4 trades Open today (closed at 13:41 at 10482 price), at 17:30 I opened the platform and DAX wax was 10412

WOW! I could have added another £11,900:00 to taken profit £5072:00.

Since I deposited £13,449:00 on Sun 11 Sept and started to trade Mon 12 Sept, today my Equity or Balance account is £32,108:00

So Guys, you can now BUY DAX and at midnight or before 00:59 take close the trade. As a rule, I do not trade anymore or at night after the day's trading is completed. I only leave it open without any S or L as I had never used this since I first started trading in 2010. I never listen or look at Tutorials or Advice with in my opinion, all Mumbo Jumbo analysis and what not. I just learn to lose first and wait for when my time came to make profit.

I am sure many of you Guys make more Profits than I, in 8 days trading the DAX. What I do not understand is, many of the language and graphics to charts, posted here. I really am not into these type of posts here.
