there is no "floor" in the dax, unlike SP. All electronic, unless you are talking about underlying stocks in Dax index which I think there is a floor trading session. Depends where you're stops are, whether they are in a relevant place. But, if you see a prior H as 25, and you plan to short...

Sadly the full answer to your question would probably fill several books :-). The Dax is like any other index really, some differences, but suggest you search for other index scalping discussions. Some people may disagree, but "reading" level 2 is a waste of time in futures, where there...
