I'm glad that I read your message ... :-)
I also had a hint that 2+ % down in the morning and other indices in the strange
I bought 5000 Sep puts in the morning,
closed a bit at 5k,
then went long few mins ago around 30,
closed bit of longs 60+ to be flat delta
and let it run now...
I realised that many times charts do not tell full story and trading becomes dangerous.
I trade partially on charts(short term) and in combination with news for long term.
you are right, I'm against trend
I do:
short term few mins to several hours - yes, here I collect few points here and there
long term several weeks - this is for major positions
btw. I usually spread it so my post is relative to other indices
industrial production surprise 4% compared to 0.6%
it does not matter, market is on short side for dax, dax will underperform, unless there is unwind before expiry
trade balance, ECB conf, CPI is on tap in the following days
well, as somebody was buying dax couple of months ago,
somebody is shorting dax right now, people trading dax like extreme extremes, :-)
maybe it is greek default or something else who knows, I'm not expert
