I trade first 2-3 hours of DAX myself (after stocks open). 10 to 30 trades per day. I will drop by whenever time permits. Good luck, but we all know it is not about luck. :)

Yep, this is exactly what it is. There is no time estimate on when this would be fixed though.

Zenfire and Ninja is a great combination. However they have a major issue for Eurex (which is what I trade). The issue is that every trade that comes through has valume of 99. So if you just use time bars, it is perfect, but if volume bars are used or volume/T&S is needed it is not usable...

Good idea, I thought of it as feature since OCO reacts to manually placed orders, wheather to enter or close the position. I will post the question on their forum. I also saw another plug in there, called Stop Watch, which might do the trick.

TT is great. The only thing that I d not like in MD that you need an extra plugin (OCO) to have automatic stops and take profits And when Trade Out button is hit to close current postion, unless the contract is not selected in OCO, it places opposite limits orders, not a biggie but a bit...

Reading that interview of his about 2.5 years ago is what made me look at cci.

Hm let me see. You just talked about probabilities of professinal traders. Now what you call dogma is probability actually. What are the chances that service/chat room that cost thousands are really worth it. From probability stand point almost no chance. Thus it is no dogma, bur a really low...

Totally agree. If something is expensive and it relates to trading 99% it will be snake oil. There are some exceptions but not many. Reliable charitng system and hardware might cost a bit, but otherwise be very careful how you spnd your $. This site has enough info to make one profitable.

go to madscalper.com. Paul has very interesting videos there that with price action, he also uses it in conjuncation with cci.

I use price action and momentum indicator (cci) for entries and price action only for exits. I trade of constant volume bars. If interested read the thread " why people use odd tic, volume and range bars"

You would need 2 accounts. The system always thinking that you cutting your original position when you take opposite positions. Just create 2 accounts and have 2 DOMs for execution.

about a year ago Cme started combing multiple trades into one print on a tape. Thus accurate tic are not reported. I would suggest looking into constant volume bars. If used properly they are the best chart type for intra day trading. To get more info read the thread called "why people use odd...

Wow, I usually never have stops more then 5 points on dax.

Doing it with real $ takes even more practice. :)

Hi Younouss, What stops do you use? It went down a lot (in my book) after you went long at 57. Thanks, redduke

I do no trade any important S/R since my holding period is very small (from seconds to several minutes). I just find it a bit unconfortable (lol) with 10 points gaps all of a sudden.

Around 10:09am (Frankfurt time) all of a sudden the price gapped down 10 points within 1 second. Fortunately for me I was short, otherwise it would be a nasty loss. Thankfully these gaps do not happen often outside news times of course.

Not sure when this was the case. IB has been one of the most discounted brokers out there for a while.

I am usually done by this time. My main trading hours are 3-5am. I would stay longer if something going on or some major news like ZEW.

I trade DAX on very short time frmae, but not scalping. Usually my trades last few minutes. They last seconds usually when I am immediatly wrong after entry, and I am eaither stopped out or just close position myself. DAX is a really great contract to trade. My time zone (new York ) is not the...
