Anyone shorting the Dow Jones? pt 2

Ok position 2 is opened... Dax entry 7829.1 - stop 7929.1

Ignore the screenshot of my 2nd screen, dunno how to stop that lol

Go on Doomberg, smash it mate.

I'm short major indices (Dax) with positions all over the place. :LOL:

Good to see some good money being laid down on conviction.

Hi Talbs,

My best is at 7820 and is DFB so accruing interest. Its also unfortunately only £2pp. Gutted. I had/have set alerts at 7890 but this last triggered 28/1/13 @ 01:25. I didn't wake so didn't fill the order, the next day it dropped off.

I'm currently totalling £36.21pp so not far off you. Average on DFB is 7759 and rest is on March contracts at average of 7639.

PS: I only self fill/close, nothing automated with me apart from my bodily functions :LOL:

Nice one Talbs.

Have sent you a friend request. That came off quicker than I thought as well. I was watching it with itchy fingers but managed to get one of the trades out at 7693.6. Not as good as your 7690 though :)

Took out 7820.9 at 7708.6 for profit of 112.3pts or £224.60
&
Took out 7757.8 at 7693.6 for profit of 64.2pts or £128.40

Unfortunately both trades were only for £2pp as I had other commitments going on so pretty gutted about that. Oh well. Onwards and upwards

Screenshot for the doubters as usual below.

Cheers Lee, shouldnt worry about the doubters mate, only your P+L that matters and those who talk rubbish will get found out in the end. Im out of everything now got out at 7690 , 7705, 7713 and 7722, very decent morning, ive done the same as you with my IG account sent myself some of my profits to fund a nice holiday, wont be trading for rest of the day ill be busy looking at sandy beaches online !
 
Just chopped out another Dax short

Closed trade 7730.1 at 7667.1 for profit of 63pts or £126.00. Again one of the small ones at £2pp.

Got £30.21 left to chop out

Fat chance, their is a concerted effort to hold down volatility, no need to scare off the bulls amidst one of the biggest bull runs of the decade while we're approaching blue skies.

Looks like bulls got burnt today , as i said i was looking for a 100 tick pullback, not sure its a buying opportunity as its so volatile, still in the bull trend though !

Does look tempting for a long, just took +4 and closed prematurely as not sure... :idea:

Better stop trading now, that's 11 wins today and 0 losers, sods law may get me :confused:
