DAX daytrading Strategy
- Thread starter eggs
- Start date
doug,
I use Keltner bands 20 ema. In fact I papertrade this strategy for 4 weeks now and it seems very profitable. The setup is clear and the risk/reward is 1.5/1 on average with a 70% win rate but you must be in front of your screen all day long anf be very very patient.
Keltner bands can be used also as target. I like the setup when keltner band is pierced with a pullback around the 20 ema. Seems to be very powerful.
For real trading I use a 30 min breakout system. My stop is always 15 pts and my target is 30 pts. I move my stop to BE when 20 pts are reached. The win rate is 50%.
The average daily range on DAX is +/- 80 pts. I average 150 pts/mont with 1 contract.
Good trading !

acrary,
What do you mean with volatility breakout ? What are the criterias for entering a trade ?
Here's a example of a volatility breakout system. Please don't expect me to post my model.

The trend lines showing the price continuing to make lows and the same time the trend line shows the stochastic not making a new low is a signal that the downtrend has lost its momentum or control and that the trend MAY be changing to sideways or more probably up.

I was messing around for the benefit of dbphoenix for his help!

I suppose you hold your positions overnight.
Pay attention. Dax is very versatile. You can have opening gaps of more than 60 pts. That's a lot of money but if you can afford it, no problem !
Thanks for the explanation of the system
Good luck

Nutseal,
Do you consider this a divergence ? would you exit the trade and when ? Does it mean a change of trend
Thanks for your help

Trade 1 is a pattern on the stochastics that I trade. It's a hidden or reverse divergence. That setup is actually a perfect one, the stoch flattens between 70 and 30, then heads up with the price failing to make a higher high, nice short there.
