Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

[hereward the wake]

Well, I don't hold very long term view now...not good for health :whistling

Work been very demanding with more responsibility and frequent US trips. Have been doing DAX, DOW and WTI... made some good money on WTI shorts and also lost in FTSE 🙄 , so no more FTSE trading now.

Hi JT nice to see you again

Hello HTW .. nice to see you too mate :clover::clover::clover:

Long Dow 17574

 

[Dinos]

Short IBEX @ 10300

Have to pop out, so, put a stop loss at 10315 and set trailing levels, and set limit 10270, RR 1:2

Got as low as 10271 😡, target was 10270, trailing stop took me out at B/E

DAX making bearing but don't trust that 100%

 

[Dinos]

Short Dow @ 17574

 

[Dinos]

Short Dow @ 17574

Half off +20, stop to +10 on remainder

Short Dow @ 17574

Dow dropped 50 points dax still going up. 😱

At least intertrader are marking their Dax prices the same as IG now.
Not much point in having a 1 point spread if its 3.5 points off the real price. 🙄

 

[Dinos]

Half off +20, stop to +10 on remainder

Quarter off +40, stop to lock in +30 on remaining 1/4

Would that not depend which way off the pricing is, could be advantageous some of the time.

Last quarter stop hit for +30 :cheesy:

They were 3.5 points higher this morning, playing the odds the dax would keep going up. Not letting punters get in at lower prices.
Both prices the same now. And relative to the futures it was intertrader whose prices changed not ig. Not good for the customer.

Sure, but as we know, all these SB co's price in different ways, so I wouldn't expect them all to be the same when calculating daily rolling cash instruments.

Missed the DAX opportunity at 14.36 as I was focussed on the DOW. Would have paid out as well 🙂

If you ring them, which I have done previously they say they price to futures +/- fair value. Obviously not the case today. So the prices are just made up to suit them.

anyone else get fooled by the breakout on the DAX ?

 

[Dinos]

Short DAX @ 9767... stop at9777
