>> Trade Close << Market went into "swabble" mode... Short another 3@6935.5, and then closing the whole position at around 6932.50. Profit/Loss ~ 0.

>> Trade Open << Minor Position, short 3 FDAX @ 6929.5, on possible sell on good news. As this trade might be crowded, a quick up move is possible. Stop around days high of 6950, looking for <6900

>> Trade Close << Closed FDAX short, took some off, after it failed to move a leg lower after the new low to 6927 (around 6931), and rest bought back 6939. PnL after comm.: + 2102 EUR = +2785 USD _____________ New Balance: 512'418 (+12'418) Open Positions: None

There seems to be a good chance of some more legs down EDIT: seems as a stop out is imminent, i don't like that, as i'm pretty sure we will see quite a downswing at some point today, but with the past action, this thing could also pop up 1% pretty fast before finally losing steam... Thus...

>> Trade Update << Took some off at 6930-35. But most part of position remains on. 10 Short FDAX remaining, stop placed at entry level 6940.

>> Trade Open << Short FDAX a lot @6940.5. Looking for some profit taking on the greek bailout package, which is more than just priced in.

>> Trade closes<< It wasn't that big a divergence, one could have traded the move also in ES, due to profit taking with a greek decision still pending. Unfortunately my stop @ 4240 got hit. PnL after Comm: SPI: +1487.8 AU$ = +1596 US$ (max position 12: max risk: 3000 AU$)...

>> New Position << US futures weak after open... short SPI, as divergence building, and expecting SPI to catch up. short 10 SPI 4241 Edit: closed part at 4237-4234 Edit: 4 remaining, limit 31, 29, 26, 23. stop 4240

current behaviour is a recipe for a short rally into close... seems like some guys really need to go out before close... 15 min to go. Wouldn't be a surprise to see close at day high EDIT: Got to day high and some selling at the very end. no more trades done

>> Close << All shorts closed. flat now. PnL after Comm.: -293 EUR = -388 US$ (buy/sells all at almost 6952.50, max risk ~10k) Very reasonable trade, small loss, scenario didnt work out so far, and order flow doesn't point to profit taking. ___ New Balance: 508'037...

Actually i'm changing my opinion based on the order flow... it seems to me as if i may not be the only one with the trading idea above, and thus there might be more who want to close some shorts into day close rather than taking profits... Still reducing, almost flat (-5 remaining), and might...

>> Trade Open << Short Dax 6952.50, in expectation of some profit taking after stop frenzy after hours, which pushed the future shortly back to days high of 6960. A divergence has build with EURUSD, as EURUSD tends lower afterhours, and even had a short 20pip sell off. While it's not sure...

>> Close << Closed all FDAX shorts and did some scalping, slow market and no sign of building down pressure... vulnerable to random moves (maybe news related), as volumes low and everyone in waiting position. Not the market I want to be in with big size. Profit/Loss after Commission...

>> Position Update << Bought back 2 FDAX at 6890. This is a hard one, as down momentum is just not picking up, but neither any upmomentum... Put a stop in Place for the remainder at 6900. Target: <6875

>> Position Update << Turned the position to -4, as continued EURUSD short time frame weakness and FDAX orderbook flow signals more possible profit taking, hard to describe what i'm looking for... but mostly an indication for this is, when the book seemingly looks strong (ie. block buy orders...

>> Trade Open << Bought some FDAX at 690x levels after first pull back after open, as asian markets were pretty strong into close, and looking for some stop rally on official underlying market open in 25 min. Took some off already, now 2 long left with entry 6906, and a small profit of the...

>> Close << After closing some more SPI at sub 4220 and some scalping in the past 2 hours there (closing some <4220 and reentry around 4225: started doing this after it moved back and forth for a while. actually traded 118 on each side to end, never exceeding a position size of 40 - actually...

>> Position Update << SPI: Took some more off at 4221-22ish, as market still steady, and some upside risk with chinese/hong kong markets soon openning. EUR/USD: Part of Scale Order got hit Remaining Position: SPI@SNFE: 20 Short EURUSD: -1.65M

>>Position Update<< EUR/USD: Closed out 200k @ 1.3213. Entered a Scale Order for the remaininng 1.8M with 50k at each 0.0002 Price Step. 1.3211 - 1.3141 Looking for a consolidation, now as japan markets just openned

>>Position Update<< I took some SPI off the table (8 / 40), as EUR/USD seems to be holding steady to it's gains for now... Position Update: 32 SPI, bought back 8 (4220,21,2@22,2@23,2@24) - Stop on the rest -> 4245-50ish (PnL will be updated, as soon as whole position is closed).
