Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

there seems to be a big miss match on the Dax / Dow.
I'm thinking either the Dow rockets up at the open or the Dax comes crashing down.
I'm already short on the Dax. and getting nervous :help:
 
Think Dow under valued where its trading expect this to play a bit of catch up !
 
Cant beat a bit of an US upgrade from S&P to get markets moving higher ! go long and go home i think :)

yes exactly, with 4pt stop

but put the order in the direction of momentum

trade is over in couple of mins

this would work well with direct access, not limited to the sb's 4pts stop and 2pt min limit

If you got it right 66% of the time you would still only break even. There are better ways of making money with a 66% hit rate.
 
i only have sb....i suppose you might get lucky in a strong market move....the risk reward guru's would cringe :)
 
Sounds like a recipe for disaster, agree with idea but imagine if it went fast market againt you and your stop didnt get filled, suddenly your remortgaging your house

obv this is the doomsday scenario

but i used to do something similar few years back with eurodollar futures over NFP , but it wasnt my money i was trading it was the banks
