Futures flat.

Profit taking should be an expression that should dictate Friday´s action.

It looks to me that fall to 5050 as retracement.
Sorry, I'm quite sceptic here:
Why did you enter?
More then 15 years DAX experience told me so.
How do you want to hold it?
I suppose the question was : how long ? Answer : Depends on ES movement. As we all know, ES is FDAX` shadow "chancellor"...
What is your R/R, cannot be greater than 1?
Risk / Reward must be lower then 1 otherise trade doesn´t make sense from a R/R point of view.
Did you base it on some indicator, I do not see enoug info.
No, I do not base trade entries solely on "indicators" - otherwise it would be a purely mechanical and "stiff" "trading system" I am pursuing. But I am a discretionary, nevertheless high frequency player.
Isn't it better to close that calls and recover some theta?
He, he, he. If you are following my thread for a while, you will recognize that I am entering sometimes straight calls or strangles at that point of the game. If you take a look at your monitor one certain statistical indicator is generously offering to enter option plays. I like especially strangles beacuse they have a "double effect". Firstly a speculative one and secondly a hedging one.
SMI broke top level, FTSE is getting closer to 4500, it is quite steep run, there is a possiblity to break 5185.
