€€€Eurex€€€

Totally agree with you. Also trading Fdax and Estx50, but I just do 1-5 trades a day, but almost every day profitable.

Greetings to Poland.

lost 6 ticks since us opening, i just can't believe it how different market is suddenly
That doesn't surprise me much. I don't trade the afternoon anymore because I never could make any € on ESTX when US is open.
I only trade the early morning now.
 
trade4success,

How long have you been trading, how long in futures?
No offence but if anything the first part of your thread is really funny. I wish I could trade with your nerves : "just made 2 ticks while eating. Sitting on the bid waiting to be hit!!" lol

BTW where are you from?
 
due to personal affaires not able to update frequently for some time, but i will keep trading.

couple of years experience trading, few months in futures. location is southern europe!

Good to hear it's funny to someone! Don't know about my nerves. I don't see points as actual money, it's more like keeping score in a game i want to win. (I am never really nervous in trading unless a position is going against me.)

I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. While I have this strong conviction my trading will be allright, it also might lower my concentration levels and maybe even take trades with not perfect prospects, just to see what's happening.

On overtrading: I am slowly getting the point that on the Eurex, the paper on the bid and offer is present enough, to make a pure marketmaker's job nearly obsolete. Especially with the time/price priority.

Consequently i have to concentrate more on correlated multiple buys or sells which push the market too far one way and then take the other side.

I will still try to lower my slippage by bidding or offering if possible. I will give the position a little bit of room though to prove itself.
 
no eurex traders around? esx having some action at the moment, down action! wonder what's it going to do at prevous' day low, prolly break it for a tick or 3 then go back
