If we get good news from Ukraine peace talks and EU-Greece meetings; I'm doomed. I moved my forth Dow-short SL bit further up yesterday, now +50. If it's heading towards 18,500, would it hit 17,500 first? do you guys think it would possibly drop further down if it hits 17,500, .. Appreciate your technical analysis

If the Dow starts going UP from here 17,775 you can kiss those shorts goodbye.

Dax looks like its going to bust through 10,800 tomorrow.

I hope it would make a small correction at least before heading up

Well,

IF

it does go down, you might get 250 points out of it.

If it corrected to 17600 would you close? 17500? or would you hold hoping for a deeper correction?

Depending on the news for the rest of the week or at least next monday, good/bad for Ukraine/Greece? - if current prices hold until then or go a little bit down. I'll sure consider to close positions at 17500. At least i'll take profit for my latest short at 1500. Any good advice?

.. Any good advice?

Close earlier next time. :clover:

Had a short on gold not keen on indices until everything settles a bit

Volatility is easier to trade than lack of......hopefully you will come to understand this.
Good luck.

 

[liver1234]

I do trade some volatility just think a lot is going on at the moment.

I'm a beginner like you, so can only tell you the stuff you already know:
1. Use a stop loss.
2. Don't double down.

What is the 1500 price? what instrument is that?
