  1. Note to self to make it easier to compare at a leter date:
    First batch of Dax trades was about 250 trades before I stopped it.
    Peak was upto around 5K after about 55 trades.
    It then slowly lost all of the profit and ended down a few K where I decided to quit using price action on the Dax.

  3. He won't be back online until middle of next week apparently, so might just watch the ES instead of trading it until then. We'll see

    Moving averages are lagging indicators.

  5. Maybe the Dax isn't suited to price action trading.
    On trade2win, it's a very popular instrument, but everyone seems to lose trying to trade it (except the hindsight trades who never lose, lol)

    Personally, If i was as lucky as you and had access to one of the few actual expert traders with a genuine edge on the whole of the internet, I'd just drastically increase the size with which I take his trades! Make a boat load of money, and walk away from the game! Milk the opportunity.
    We all only do this for the money.

    I've seen you post his trades live in the ES journal and in another thread that I can't remember off the top of my head, and they're remarkable.
