It is a public holiday in Germany and a lot of other European countries ... so will anyone turn up or can we all have a day off ?
:-)

You can always have any day off - necessary and compulsory for brain health!.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?

Hi @
CPRICE76 - thanks for following
1) only IFO and ZEW have special entry rules. Trades are made on IFO and ZEW days
2) no
3) there is
slippage possible but I have very rarely trades where SL does not hold
Good trades
GFIs1
Thanks for the reply.Just to let you know I have positioned myself ahead of ZEW . Hoping I do not suffer major slippage if the number comes out weaker than expected. I am using a 12 tick stop @8241 in the cash not the future.

Had promised some posts ago to show the bigger picture with the daily Dax
to get a feeling where price might go:
--> GFIs1 is leaning again out of the window
-> who bets against? lol
Chart speaks it's own language...

Dax short 09:30 to 16:00
entry @ 8352
exit @ 8382 SL
result minus 30 points
risk - medium
outlook - conso before a long weekend
GFIs1
Dax made another 8404 top - we hope to see a double top
this might be the turning point for lower prices... - lets follow!
So Monday will be NO GFIs1 trade (Pfingsten) and Wednesday is the
first day to look at again.
Have some nice days over Pfingsten
GFIs1
PS II: after having seen the top - some more normal days in Dax trading
will be for sure

This week had three trades:
one positive: 1 point
two negative: -9 - 30(SL) = -39
Total weekly points : - 38
Since week 2: +372 points
Not very encouraging week during this bullish move to new alltime highs.
As a conclusion how to trade near highs: be careful and lower your risk...
Looking forward to next week (no trade on Monday though)
