Next week will be a bit special:
Holiday in Germany on Wednesday 3rd October: "Tag der deutschen Einheit" - EUREX closed!

So a Monday and a Friday trade on the plate.

Happy weekend

I have a Channel where I too post my trades. I shorted the DAX yesterday but promised the Mrs not to trade any more as it was a Friday and I have had a poor track record trading on a Friday. I could only watch in anguish as the price kept going lower and lower. I shorted 12369 @2 exited 2 for 123010 !

Dax is on the up again - after very good IFO index numbers - highest in history.

I see it your way: DOWN
But today my rarely used rule did NOT work.
And your mention of VWAP least traded is obscure.

Be aware of Wednesday closed - things might go other ways than thought.

My next trade will be on Friday - then things hopefully will have been settled.

Good trades

what I wanted to point out was the fact that vwap price at that time was one of the lowest volume spots on the profile, ie (my interpretation?) it was a price level right at the middle of two opposite blocks. This looked to me as kind of unusal and I thought it was implying first a revisit of vwap price level and then ... whatever, possibly a substantial move on the direction of either one of the two group. Right now vwap poc and current price almost coincide, ie: balance, so based on this I would not expect any major move later on before today EU closing.

As the profile develops some more information gets to the surface.
After a - here important - quarter closing with a very high daily range (hi/lo) the subsequent day is not really a "normal day" - therefore some more risk.
Things will get back to normal - and profiles as well as system trades will be the good base again.

Good trades!
