Nice work Task IVe had enough........... got off to a bad start and spent all day chasing ( not the right mind set for a trader Hey Ho ) Did what we all vow never to do Dumb trades!!! lucky to be out with a 5 point loss.. I am going to the pub if i can find my skies

thanks for compiling that I know it must be a lot of work Who has slp and bmk ?

USD JPY ill be looking for sells after the expiry

USD JPY has an option expiring at 10700 at 1500 hrs If your in watch for volatility

Very noisy day on the indices ............. Fed......... Chair Powell Testifies at 3 pm (expect more volatility) that what causing the sell off in the indices . Task dont understand S1.. S3 and Pivots I use Fibs trend lines symitry Tops Bottoms Flags Macd Volume and ATR on pairs when i can get it Also very much into candles and price action.. we all have our own systems!! IF ONLY IT WOULD WORK !!

It just hit my 12280 I am out for a while down about 14 points on the day

I got long at 12266. A bit of a mess really thought it might bounce up to 12280 but not looking hopful . Did go and buy a really nice trading chair the other day. A �500 chair but used a got it for �100

Yes spread betting across two platforms and i own shares on a brokers platform

The 2 min Dax ........... wished i had read your post before i went on . I got it wrong and and it shifted at a rapid rate against me .... Now trying to get it back with little success

GS ah ok i didn't know that........... Task about 30 points for a few hours this afternoon on the 2 min not bad for a first attempt .. Ive never used a bollinger band but will put it on. . Gl all

Yes got the email ..... Sorry didn't mean to pour cold water on your new buy......... It certainly has got the potential to rise after the massive gap and sometimes good to be a bottom feeder...... but what caused that massive drop?

Nice work on lgen Gs .. I am still holding, an income share for me........... The very very best of luck in ciniworld i think you will need it .. . Task......... Yes 10dma and loving 2 min Dax will report later . gl all

Morning Task nice work on your scalp trades....I'll take another look now you mention 10 dma. Also are you doing it on true ecn? I picked 10 points on eur aud short yesterday and 26 points shorting usd jpy had to sweat it over night though . (Fed meeting through me a bit) Sold out of ssx for £ 70 profit after costs will probably renter when techs allow. Good luck all

USD JPY . I closed out at 1.30 ish this morning and went to be, took 14 points . Looks like i did the right thing.. Its still ranging and Fed speech this afternoon is putting all dollar bets on hold! gl all

Task ive been looking at the Dax 2 min i can see lots of flags and plenty of potentially meaningful candles, but i guess the most obvious it the 20 d MA ??

Hi all........... Gs good to see Legal and G on the rise. A keeper for me also.. Also pleasantly surprised to see my wad of SSX shares jump up today also.. Task still haven't looked at your 2 min Dax system yet been off market all day but went short on USD JPY a few hours ago ( disappointed to see it immediately go the wrong way but it still look bearish long term if i can cope with the skittish nature of this pair.. it was showing a hanging man on the daily.. Very well done on your magic Dax scalp system task

GS yes cineworld that definitely a gap.. A gap is when it drops or rises with no price action in between. |Gl all

IG yes there is a Hstory . On the left hand side of the screen there is a vertical panel about 2 inch wide. It has everything in it. The first thing you see at the top is Search underneath that is Indices FX followed by crpto shares comodoites bonds and rates eft digiat etc etc then keep looking down, past Watch lists, Positions Orders then HISTORY.. Click on that it opens up another window with further options

Evening all! Not been on markets at all today so nothing to report........ Task first well done on your dax trades from Thursday .. Ive never used a 2 min chart but i guess anything moving fast enough could do well.. I bet the dow would be good for scalping on your system .. you say you use T/A and IB what is the IB part?... Even if you are trading 2 mins yes you are right you still need money management in case a fundie breaks whilst in the positions.... Or a vanilla hedge fund battle that expires on the 30 min 60 min or London or New York cut.

Hi guys............ Task my analysis was right on the USD JPY traded it down for 65 points over nigh and closed it t... .re entered short again and left it running.. The 65 points entiled me and Mrs Opt a quality pub lunch with coffees tea etc ... Came back, took another 55 points at the 50 fibo .. waited a while,, expecting a bounce,,, re entered long. Picked up another 15 points.. Gl all
