Short DAX at 7740

Discussion in 'Index Futures' started by ASusilovic, May 23, 2007.

  1. will be following with interest. did not have time to look at dax so far. More interested in EUR.

    my new overnight 'crab net' system behaving well including last 2 buys in dax index.

    actually got inspiration from your earlier post couple of days ago.

  2. didn't react on selling or buying signal but jump into long at 7185

    looking for small move, cover when we go below low
    looking not good at the moment

  4. btw. talking about the imballance, I think we may say that dax is ballanced based on mine instinct measure, :).

    However, bears are in charge so lets be patient and find good entry for long.

  7. Just closed out at 7294 on FDAX. My models for DAX and ESX50 are still quite bullish. May get long Friday again on a pullback.

    So I have been meaning to buy the FESX since a few days ago and today was the perfect opportunity after the market briefly dipped in the opening hours before rallying 100+ points...

    But I can't because two weeks ago I started getting error messages in ninjatrader rejecting all orders.

    The error "Eurex-A order download not complete. Affected order:..."

    Does anyone else get this error? I am with Velocity Futures and use a TT connection and NT 7 for my platform.

    As a side note what do you guys use broker/connection wise to trade the european futures?

  9. Well Thursday was an exciting ride. My models for the DAX and ESTX50 are still showing a lot of strength after close, so expect the momentum to be up for a few more trading days at least.

    Having said that, you want to be buying the pullbacks. Buying new highs will hurt you in this market because of the excessive volatility. Thursday was a classic example.

    If a get a good opportunity to re-enter long, I'll post it here.

  10. Well played ! That is how I want to play ie adding to position. My system fires off less frequently though. I am parttime but working on increasing number of quality signals.

    How much size did you load second time, extra 20%, 50%, double..., if you don't mind?
