"I have some usefull videos I can post that explains variation concepts and for most of you I think It will not be so common sense. It is in the context of quality control and it can be easily transposed in the context of trading. For example in statistical control there is the concept of common...

Harry, So you agree that there is there is trending behaviour in markets, ie a hurst component >1 (i am not sure about this but you know what i mean) Conclusively, you can make money by just good money management (if it's good enough to pay for slippage and commissions) What's your take...

I'd like to hear you in my first language :-)

due to less bad results, i am not ditching the strategy on second notice..

Does anybody know an IRC channel for ESX/DAX traders? I'd like to exchange live views on the market.

Allthough I am maybe not the right person to give advice, it seems to me you are bound to lose in these type of days due to your trailing 4 point stoploss. you might wanna put a time stoploss in as well and improve your bottomline.

Draxon, I like your trading style. Could you explain to me which changes in your system were critical to become profitable? Or did you become profitable right away ;-) I hope to develop a trading style not so different from yours, allthough a little bit more opportunistic and short...

right, so i might make money when i loosen my stop?

I don't even know WHY this was a bad setup (nor good). well, ignorance doesn't pay. could you plse explain why this was a bad setup? Man, this esx makes me crazy, i thought i was a good trader (scalper), untill i started trading this vehicle. Never paid attention to any technicals before...

Here's the screenshot i promised. I gotta tell you that i experienced that this method doesn't appear to work for me. Even not good enough to explore it any further. So I decided to ditch in the dumpster. Thanx for the interest and i hope it may have provided a little inspiration for...

Unfortunately i gotta go, fast. I'll post a screenshot tomorrow. regards

I'll post a chart when i figured out how to, sorry to offend you buddy. my trade next to the previous one was from 2584 and got out at 2576, so that was a winner! not nearly positive for the day yet though.

and out with 1 point loss, the wave just extended! :-( I am losing like this every f*cking time i try it

just went short the esx at2582, because 5 minute pointing downwards, and 1 minute just had a wave up, which is hopefully topping. looking to hold for 2575, otherwise go out with 1 tick loss

Believe me, there's really nothing to show on a chart. Just prices are ticking up, tick tick, momentum slows, volume dies. time to look for a reversal! s/r's just previous day high/low and that kind of stuff. Trading with different timeframes: just go long on the 1 minute chart when it...

Of course I'll take into account s/r's and the trend on larger timeframes. Big other issue though; what do i do while waiting for a wave to top/bottom? I am getting real nervous with nothing to do..

Yes, I found my method of common sense. no fibs gann macd's crossovers etc. It's this: when I see a wave topping or bottoming, I sell respectively buy it. Very tight stoploss. timeframe is as short as possible, while not losing due to commissions. I hope now I found a method which should...

Trading ESX on Eurex from southern europe

So what does?

I am glad to hear you are doing fine. My take is it mostly comes down to having a method and the conviction to stick with it. I for one don't have a method yet for the ESX and that's prolly the most important reason why I lose. I have excellent psychology and excellent money management, so...
