{quote} Hi Karuner, I did study dax gap and couldn't find a consistent way to make money out of it but dax shows good opening range break out edge . I have a bot which i turn on once in a while to make small profits here and there.
Hi sbc. I think interesting are those gaps, that jump over yesterdays high or low. They don't happen too often, though.
Interested to hear about your bot :-) what kind of strategy is it trading? break out of the range that's defined by 8-9 uhr?

Not agood situation for me: this morning +40 pips and now at least -18 pips loss.
Sometimes it's better to stay with my feet on the ground and when I reach very good gain for the day I MUST STOP TRADING!!!!!

{quote} Only futures, FDAX and sometimes FDXM (small FDAX). CFDs cost too much overnight
Strange mate that you say so because you have less margin requirements in CFDs with tigher (often fixed) spreads with very low overnight financing cost. You hardly hold positions overnight so overnight financing should have minimal impact on your trading. In any case, it is totally up to your own preference. I raised it because i trade DAX CFDs for exactly the above mentioned reasons, so curious to understand your viewpoint.

Other reason for me is that i can back test my ideas very easily with Index CFDs through platforms like cTrader.

You are right but
1. I hardly hold position overnight, but when it happens (as tonight) I don't want pay anything to bank/broker ;
2. Spread is near zero on FDAX and after more than 15 years on trading I pay very very low commissio, to buy and sell 1FDAX;
3. I also backtest on DAX CASH INDEX my strategies, but with TF I use (10min to 20 min) I don't see difference to evaluate a strategy vs futures.
