DAX - Euro Stoxx 50 - FTSE100 - CAC40 trading

Just shorted the FTSE with a small 50pips stop


chart: zoomed-out view of the hourly chart. Any guesses as to where my targets are?

Hi ItsATrap,
First time on this thread.
FTSE100 WLY and DLY Charts:
I am waiting to Short the DOW [any day now],
and took a look at the FTSE100.
Looks like it could get smashed down from the LT DT?
The DLY FTSE100 Chart needs to make a lower high,
and would be a high probability Short IMO [red ellipse].
Cheers, U2

Tightened stops to just 25 pips now. I am basically betting on yet another failure to break the week's high's so far (which are v close to the week's opening price and about where I took the short) , and thus for the price to give up and dive lower, until it eventually reaches the bottom of the multi-day ascending channel I have posted here recently.

If price reaches the bottom of that channel, I will looking to reverse and get long there, expecting price to move up and overshoot the channel top. So I do not see a double top between April 2015 and this month. I think price will soon move above that top. Until it does, I am trying to benefit from the dip that I expect to precede the resumption of the uptrend.

4hour chart with my current trade and SL attached

DAX - Short position opened

(From ZOOM Image)
<1>= 10715 (STOP) -45 pips
<2>= 10670 (SHORT OPENED)
<3>= 10585 (LIMIT) +85 pips
<4>= 10490 (SECOND LIMIT CONSIDERATION) +180 pips

Positioned based on the lower parallel trend line I believe we are now in.
I think we will ultimately be tightening up here with not much movement due to political risk being higher in the near term (US Presidentials, Syria, Brexit)
Essentially moving toward the lower trend line seen drawn below.
I will not consider option <4> as my limit at the moment as there is a continued up trend, but DAX can move so quickly, and depending how quick it moves, I may change. I do think 10490 will be tested and supported, I would rather take 85 pips than risk not getting 180.
Off and out now to work.

Short FTSE100
Cheers, U2

Hello index traders! After getting stopped out of the above-quoted short for -25pips per position, I re-shorted again a bit later last week, and added to the short positions later as the price edged a bit higher.

I have now moved SL to my highest short entry levels, to reduce overall capital-at-risk. I am still at risk on some of my earlier shorts, as you can see.

I consider this a relatively high probability trade. There was a high probability that the price would dip to the bottom of the ascending channel (which I have posted here before), before breaking the recent top of 7130 or so. Hence my repeated shorting as price was still closer to the top of the channel than to its bottom.

Daily chart uploaded.

Reminder: the bigger trend is STILL up, and I expect price to rebound at or near the bottom of the rising channel and then RISE to ABOVE the upper channel borders

DAX
Test support to 10720, depends of the reaction of the price is possible test to 10690. From those points is good opportunity for buying with daily target 10814.

Hello all. I finally closed all my FTSE 100 shorts today, for a profit of between 200ish and 250ish pippos per position (price movement hit my first take profit levels earlier today while I was away from the market, and later I manually closed the remaining positions.

I've been studying this four exact indices for some time now. What broker is everyone using to trade them?

I do not know who you are
as jobs (average time of your operations )
and as' your budget
your years experience
there is no good brokers and bad brokers
because there is't hell and heaven for sending they after death

there are numbers and real words
since you're talking about cfd you know what they are ??
your bad brokers and 'what stealing data from the server or slows delayed data feed
there are out here specific indicators to measure in a chart D1 the number to tick daily to any broker so you can compare two o more broker in a day with demo account
the most beautiful thing and 'minifutures index
but I do not know if you have sufy money to put into account after only 4 month experience ,
also mini have only max 50 100 leverage ,,
the cfd things are created by the broker with fluctuations from 5 to 20 points to future

these two screenshot are among one ,, broker that i like LMAX
and fake ecn broker junk ic market who have cfd can not be broker ecn ,, They do not exist cfd ""ecn""

There are red elephants flying but not broker cfd ""ecn"" thi's a fake broker
