Hi S - strange - my 5 min IG advanced chart shows a gap from 7910 to 7917 last night - but my MT4 shows a smooth line - thought it was the infamous USD gap again!!!! I still thank you anyway - and give the credit to you!
S - interesting how your IG index USD gap fill worked perfectly this morning - still don't understand it - as exists no where else - but worked a treat and once filled, EU rose nicely!!!
Happy birthday S - been tied up recently elsewhere but glad all is well with the board. Have a great day. Very impressed with your numbers above - if able to name the source do post it., ATB, Rob
S - yes I've found IG really bad recently - and am now trading on other platforms - but like you found is fine some of the time. Spreads on IG are good for EU - but are 1 on some other providers as well.
Both DAX and DOW resting nicely above Pivot - suggesting longs, but all bets may be off if indices break key levels. Good luck today - going to wait until after 8, as find too often direction before 7 can be fake out.
Hi S - sorry not replied earlier - been having problems with my PC this week, so been up and down. N - will send email shortly. Trading not as good as should be - but still confident - still very impressed with your simple approach S. Also N - well done as well.
Don't worry N that was purely down to 18:48 news items that Berlusconi would resign after the approval of the austerity law. I was thinking of longing as well and broke for dinner - so am also guutted missed a great move.
Can I email you a spreadsheet I've put together showing whether the index gap theory works on the DAX (i.e. whether the previous day's close will be reached the next day during the cash trading horus)?
N - agree re DAX being better than FTSE - is much smoother as is more of a techncial index than the FTSE - I also trade it every day now.
I understand more professional traders trade the DOW and DAX than the FTSE.
