This week I had 0 FDAX trade in this journal
The next 2 weeks will be very busy for me, but I will try to check if the system gives something to trade. I'm looking forward to trade

Monday
FDAX
Gap : no gap
Gap closed during IB: x
Position price at 9:30: inside prior day HL
IB direction: short
Using my filter for 'Monday US holiday' is not giving something to trade

I don't think the statistics of my system are good to trade in current situation. Every day has extremes, very volatile.
I think it's too much of a gamble (more than normally ) to trade. I'll be watching

With movements of 1000 points per day, I am not trading my strategy.
I'm just wondering when to take the next short, and where to put the stoploss.
There could be positive developments with the war in Ukraine, and please let it be asap, so maybe I'm just going to wait for calmer days.
Peace for all

I'm still waiting to continue trading my system. My SL is calculated based on the ATR . The ATR has been very high in the past period, and the SL is too high for me to trade.
The DAX is getting more normal and the ATR as well.
I have been busy with other work, and will be in the coming months, but I'll continue trading here soon.
Being busy with other work also means that I didn't make time for analysing the data further. That's still on my plate.
Have a good day
