Looks like 4260 ish on Dax has been an important level all day!!!
I'm giving up trying to beat the broker as well today. Only managed £32K. Pitiful.
I'll switch from Dax now to Dow and see if there's better moves on there....

It's not down here. I'm busy helping arabian create a diverse portfolio. Wouldn't do any good putting all your eggs in one basket now would it?

Yeah, I just called them, and I'm the only one who can't access the site!! Cleared my cache but still no joy. Oh well.

I have had that blaze of glory moment many, many times today, the broker has put in a good performance again, a bit far away for me.
You did good today 🙂
I'm happy to share my day.
Spotted a nice head and shoulders on the DOW around 3.30pm and put the lot on it with a stop below the head. Turned out ok taking me close to the broker, so I closed.
I don't want to cry over spilt milk but, of course inevitably, I should have kept it open as the DOW has continued to rocket since then - with my stop area as the low of the whole day! Oh well...
I am flat now, but need 1 killer trade in the next 2 hours to make it into the 20k draw.
Here goes... 🙂

I think tomorrow the dow will be ±500.
I wouldn't rule it out, crazy markets.
I'm not sure we're going to tank into the close tonight, the low of 7775 was a big support level in 2003, BUT if (and a big IF) it does get battered tonight like last night, then I think we could see 7500-7600 first thing. I hope not.
I'm not around now, so good luck everyone beating the broker

Yeah, I doubt dow is going to do anything exciting today... but something exciting is being setup methinks 😀
system seriously sucked today. Got up to 35k 4 times each time you go to lock in, by the time the screen spins it's wheels your down a few k.
Last time it was up to 41k. time the page loaded It slipped 5k.
Glad it's not real money.
GBP/jap is only a thousand pips off its all time low since 1995. I can only go back to 1977
A thousand pips is only 2 to 3 days max at these conditions.
Scary stuff eh?

Another late late run ...just pipped the broker...whoo hoo :clap: £74,169
Looks like it could be a bit of an own goal for them. It's given me a taste for trading the higher timeframes, but probably with someone like IG Index
