Hi Dutchy,

stupid question but the % gain/loss you let calculate from yesterdays's close (future and not kassa), right?

Thanks

There are no stupid questions.

The % levels I calculate from previous day Cash (RTH) close.

So on Yesterdays Cash close time (17:30 local German time) the Future price was @ 12.530.
From that price the % levels are calculated

Thank you Now it makes sense to me, somehow always thought you calculate it from the futures close

Why the RTH close and not the Futures close?
It's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it!

{quote} Why the RTH close and not the Futures close?
In the beginnig I used the ETH (Futures) closes. But these levels make no real sence.
The RTH or Cash calculated levels are much more respected.

DAX pulls back a little. Maybe down to 600. Depends on US markets now.
Single TPOs from 600 to 576

On the right side margin you see Daily RTH TPOs with RTH % levels
The DAX stopped (so far) on the +1.0% level calculated from Y RTH/Cash close (on the tick)

The left TPO buildings/ranges are ETH TPOs, so Future Opens/Closes/Highs/Lows

DAX is now on the RTH and ETH POC, which are both on the same level now @ 624

There's also the Globex close, which in my experience is the most respected.

Globex close for the DAX is the ETH close or Future close.

ETH Opens @ 8:00 and closes @ 22:00 German/Amsterdam time.
RTH Opens @ 9:00 and closes @ 17:30 German/Amsterdam time.

I don't pay much attention to the ETH or Globex open/close

DAX is waiting now on the POCs level @ 625 for US move.

Very often there is a pull back on US markets ahead of tomorrow Non Farm numbers and Yellen speach.
If that happens (no crystal boll) the DAX should follow in the pull back, BUT EU markets are very strong due to the expected winning of French candidate Macron. Survival party of EU.

Oil made a HUGE drop since a few weeks. From $54,00 plus down to $47.00 now

Must have some down effects on DOW as well I would think.

More OPEC export then agreed.

Royal Dutch Shell made a huge profit due to higher oli prices last Q
I wonder how that will be this Q with lower oli prices.
