You mean 2 points per bar ? What is your average stop loss on the DAX ?

I trade 3:1 Momentum set ups with 7 - 10 point stops and 21 to 30 point initial targets.

Been trading the DAX a lot recently, really enjoying it. I am only trading demo at the moment and only rarely suffer slippage of a tick. Will be interesting to see what it's like when going live but by the sounds of it should be ok just trading 2-3 lots .
