great job

p.s. HOD was 10076, but I know you are using CFD data, otherwise your entry would have been lower

Thanks @tr8er

Yes I am using here CFD data. First as it is always near to the DAX index and second as most of the readers asked for it as they
trade CFDs. Third it is not so easy to explain why the future is always nearing the index when witch days are ahead.
So I changed from "ugly" futures with the complicating witch days four times per year where one has to jump to the next one. Changed it already some years ago in this thread.
Good trades!

Tuesday

DAX started this morning higher: 7:39 @ 10225 where it was climbing to yesterday after cash hours.
Some strong bullish movements in looking forward to see Corona peak soon...
This doesn't help to overlook all the damage done to people and the economy.
Things will not be as it was some months ago. Unfortunately.

Five minutes before cash open 8:55 @ 10415

IFO numbers Germany:
"The German industry expects a massive decline in the coming three months. The Ifo index of production expectations fell from plus 2.0 to minus 20.8 points in March, according to the Munich researchers. This decline is the sharpest since the survey began in 1991."

First hour of cash hour: Hi / Lo of 181 points...
This volatility I haven't seen - it is tremendous over weeks!

Decision of today's trade shortly before 10:00

A rare Tuesday trade with up gap rule(s!) gave this scenario:



Hope this gives some extra points for already a good week.

PS: I know well that it is a gamble to find the point when price is turning. Especially in high vola markets.
Looks as it turned out well:

PS II: (16:27) 10266 shown in the chart suddenly is at hand... some points more

Easter holidays

Frankfurt exchange will be closed on Friday and Monday: a long weekend!
Today some volume expected. Tomorrow Thursday low volume - so NO trade.

Some bigger picture of the DAX here to come later.
