non farm payroll today. at 1600 london time the bund has done 440 thousand. pathetic. from what i saw today more like 40 thousand traded and the rest is algo crossed up nonsense. time to delete this contract from the screen. well done eurex. what a laughing stock you are.
Agreed there totally. But what is the reason its so utter dogdirt? Its very worrying for the future, does'nt bode well at all.
Can't see the attached picture for some reason. Massive downday on the Bund today, very dissapointed with myself as i had multiple shorts alligned but executed 0 of them. =/
Yup, massive down day for Bunds! Why didn't you trade when you 'knew' and had shorts aligned? If it helps, read 'Trading in the Zone - Mark Douglas' awesome book. And I'm not sure why the picture won't download, it uploaded alright, email me your address and I'll send the picture to you. Cheers!
Sorry, let me rephrase that or ammend the usage of the word "Knew". It was a setup i trade regularly and have been planning 2 weeks in advance just waiting for the smaller timeframes and Orderflow to give a signal. As to your question on why i didn't take/execute the trades, i'm still a bit dumbstruck about it. I'm back to m5 trading for now and ignoring he swing setups. Scalping is my stronger trading ability.
