No, I'm not one of those. Just trying to understand the rationale behind the skewed risk-reward of this trade.
Let me make sure I understand this: You're looking for 9 ticks upside (average sell at 111'04.5 to exit at 111'00) while tolerating 13 ticks...
Not being facetious, just curious: What makes you say that? Absence of scheduled news or something else?
What happened? It's not a single bad tick, these are real trades up to 50 points below ZG.
You booked a profit of 2.2% and then you made a mental note to trail tighter stops next time. :D
I see what you mean. 08:35:04 CET. Printed every price on the way up but jumped 3, then 10 ticks on the way down after whoever fat-fingered this...

Well, that's what the FTSE does all the time. I was asking about FDAX because it looked to me (over the last few days at least) that some of...
PATS, RTS, Easyscreen, X-Trader, etc.
The recent fun in equity markets made me look at index futures again, and I found what looks like a tradable edge in FTSE and FDAX. I'm keeping...
So they asked 101% of traders. Hmm...

Oh, I meant to ask what made you pick '08 as the short entry point earlier.
Even so, nice catch. What made you pick '08, though?
What's your rule for coloring the bars red or green?
Why 111-18 ? (Just curious.)
