There is so much correlation between the indices in that bull run that if it is broken then we can get another bear leg for all of them with even higher correlation. Question remains if it goes below the bottom that we already have or stays above. What do you think? I think that looking at...

what to tell, idiot, lol

i believe you are out today, dax is overperforming other indices and there are not negative news from us. it looks we are going to have bull run soon. (but as I look at graph I see it falling, :-) towards 4900)

Ah, you meant two separate trades, one strangle and other short put + short stock.

Volatility breakout, I believe you were buying strangle. What confuses me is that talk about the put premium. You were selling puts?

Well, maybe you see who and what is someone (GS) buying ... I don't. I believe that even GS cannot buy the whole market. It is just a game who scares who, :-).

I didn't see 4882 ... Do you short only dax?

Not bad ... we are getting there ! If we move higher when US opens we can dump it to them. This 34bn for BoA tell nothing good about US session.

There was not lot of discussion past 2 days. I do not understand why DAX is not ralying. Do we wait for US or EU guys can push DAX higher too?

I do something similar I think, :-), but with FTSE. This week I was too stubborn, didn't get out. Well, I got out but experienced heavy losses (wiped out last 5 weeks of earnings, pretty annoying).

What was the price and breakeven? Dax vol have risen but June expiry? I guess you are not going to hold it until expiry.

Thanks, thanks, long, short, short, long, it changes all the time but I do not trade only dax. I see dax closing ask 3825, for me at 9pm and I left position over the weekend and maybe it goes up on Monday morning again to 3850. By the way, I agree with the idea of 30-50% recovery but...

Apparently not, ES broke 740 and threre will be a weekend so bears are going to sleep. I'm just wondering what happens when EU market close.

Yeah, I spotted it as well. I went short at 3.8k and apparently it is not going to make it. (and closed when it went down the road.) Bad, bad news from US, GDP and who knows how is the sentiment. DJ is too close to 7k ... so maybe we will see DAX below 3750.

Man, I'm quite surprised that you didn't make money this week. I think it is time to improve your money management. I have poor but your is apparently worse. You should start betting on the market rather than single stocks. I did >20% last 2 weeks, next weeks we will see recovery so maybe you...

hi retire45, I tried to look at your last year summary but could not find it. I usually summarize past 10 weeks but how could you summarize your last year? What did you achieve? What was the best strategy? What was the worst decision? What did you learn? What are your...

Turkey example is just boom and bust. As Soros would say we observe Taleb's boom and after bear market people realize Taleb's bust. So everybody says the same thing.

hi retire45, I would like to thank you for your channel. I went trough all pages, :-). I started my own trade private blog some time ago where I specify why enter/exit, what learned, bla bla bla and I have to admit it works well ! I do less mistakes, I'm more disciplined and make money...

I'm doing ASX index and there are also ETF indices on IG Index spreadbetting platform. By the way, IG spreads are terrible (futures 4 + 3 for guaranteed stop loss) but if you do low frequency it should be ok.
