Short DAX at 7740

I guess, you were stopped out.
I cannot say that I thrive either ... given that I've got no view.

- lets take ftse it broke 5450, ESTOXX broke 2350, dax is below 6100, DJ below 11700, S&P below 1230
I do not know we still may go up a bit.

Ok, I did 6000 puts as a protection of my longs ...

 

6078.00. Ay, ay, ay. Seems, mutual fund manager are again being forced into the market. G20 gave Europe a WHOLE WEEK to sort out a final package.

That´s going to be desastrous for the shorties of this world.

 

I was feeling the pain with 6000 puts as I turned in bed dax went from 6017 to 6060+.

 

This kind of moves (6050+ to 5800- then back) stop out many swing traders ...
I'm not saying that it was not deterministic but if you do not move a$$ and adjust position it is nightmare.

 

I just shorted index at 5900 and closed given quick gains.

 

Whole bloody day I was long DAX from 5780, I even survived move below a bit, I closed 5891.
Still, I'm somehow reluctant to go long ...

 

Why don't you short now?

 

I wait for US open, it would be like driving against the wall.

Also, I had good 2 days, I do not want to spoil my weekend, .

 

I guess I do not have nerves for that jumps, , ... I give up for a while, lost 15points.

 

heading to 6000
