Know how you feel. I'm done trading DAX today too. Up 50 Euros gross, but down about $90 net. 27 RTs. Narrowest range I've seen in many, many months.
I trade Bund/Bobl intraday. Usually I take 2 to 4 ticks per trader. I usually hold a trade for less than 20 minutes. Am I a scalper or a short-term trader?
matter, as long as a) your enjoying what your doing & b) profitable! But I would not say scalper, but that could also depend on total RTs for the day... best cosmic
I've got caught on the wrong side of the ZEW release before when it has came in way out of line. That is why I watch it. The ZEW i just as importent as the IFO survey in my opinion.
