Going to close this journal since after some backtesting it makes more sense to trade the Dax CFD for me lving in Europe. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/trading-dax-cfd.352371/

I prefer after some backtesting to trade the Dax instead of the more liquid ESTX50 or sp500. There is not much difference but the vol is slightly higher and the times are slightly better for me since I live in Europe and I prefer the granularity.

Looking back on my trades I should have started earlier with trading sp500: left some good trades there on the table. I think I will just stick to trading sp500 cause doing both is asking a bit too much of my concention.

Afternoon trades: short sp500 3505.96, reversed at 3498.70, closed everything at 3513.70 Enough for today. Going to relax a bit and enjoy my weekend

I am with tickmill and prefer to trade small

I would have gotten out at 3188.3 in my would be short but not reverse since it's way too late in the European session. It's time to look at sp500 but first a break since I don't want to have any position going in to NFP

I don't have a RR that I look at, i reverse when I see the moment on my charts

should have reversed at 3192.7 looking with hindsite but it looked like quite late in the european session to me my indicators were a bit messy

Yes I got some but not extended experience with both of them. They trade a lot the same.

I trade off 5M and 15M charts. My trades this morning in eurostoxx. long 3199.20 reversed to short 3217.3 reversed to long 3175.30 closed at 3192.70. For indicators I use stoch 12/3/3 and ema's 9/20/50/100/150/200

I am goig to be trading eurostoxx50 and s&p500 CFD's. I start this journal to keep me more accountable.

I banged my head against a brick wall for years trying to trade fx. Then I went to trading DAX on the 15m charts and finally things became easy ... why make life difiicult is now my answer that tells me you should try to short term trade fx.

calling this in 'arb' is very wishfull thinking ... a lot can go wrong with this ... stay far away from this would be my advise ... it's a big gamble and trading should not be about gambling imho ...

forgM about the 5M, I use 15M and 30M for everything I trade.

did you have a look at IB ?

you can both long and short fx (btw you can short stocks too) there is no exchange in forex spot, it's a decentralised market so it's your brokers market making or ECN. If you want to trade fx in a centralised market place there are the futures on the CME Easiest is a relative term but yes you...
