Tuesday

I was travelling yesterday, so couldn't post

6B - US session

Gap: no gap
Gap closed during IB: x
Position price at 9:30: inside prior day HL
IB direction: short/flat

DAX long (paper) trade
Entry 10:30 (CT)
Exit 14:30 (CT)
SL 0,003 pts
Result -0,003 pts (SL)

Historical results with this setup: See snapshot

SumR translates to a relative (to current FDAX price) result of X points per trade
(Relative trade result = trade result in pts / 9am open price * 10000, and the SumR is the sum of the relative trade results)




The hours look weird in the snapshot, but ie. 1000 is just the start of the 3rd 30 minute bar RTH (9:30 CT)

Hi, currently I'm just paper trading as the results are not good. I'm looking at the L&S DAX data to prepare these FDAX trades.
But last year I would trade FDXM.

FDAX paper trading from 19 August 2022

FDAX
22 trades
10 winners = 45%
Profit 38 pts

Not good enough to trade live.

Few things I want to try first:
* Have a daily bias before the open. I'm open for suggestions
* Add other ticker, started with 6B. Will also get the 6B data in with IB at US open
* FDAX: Ignore 2 days ago, unless significant value

Have a good weekend
Deetee

Good morning,

I have not been able to follow the trades this week as work is getting busy towards year-end and will continue until mid-January. After that I will start packing as we are moving out.

I would find time to continue the trades, but considering the results of the paper trades, which didn't really change since prior result post (46% winners / -5 pts loss total), I will focus on my work and moving out of the house.

From Feb/March we will staying some months in Asia like digital nomads, and I hope to pick up trading from there again.
Main focus will be having a bias and looking at the context.

Wishing you happy holidays and hope to see you in 2023.

Good trades,
Deetee
