Apologies, you must have misheard me.

I didn't actually say "It's open season on DAX!"

What I did say was "It's open season on Ducks!"
 

Would be interested to see an example of the position style you're referring to if you get a chance.
 
I only decided to come on while I was updating my Aussie stocks, so a bonus to get a nice trade.

With IB does anyone know when the closed trade is converted to AUD? I notice that I'm out of the trade but my account is fluctuating by a few cents at a time.
Is it the end of the day?
End of the month?
 
Out 6440.

Jesaulenko you beauty!

30 points in 10 mins!

Yes nice one.

I was short at 6475 but let myself be stopped out at b/e ............

Still, made 20pts on the open - in ~3 minutes I reckon.

Currently short at 6433.

Out for b/e.

Never. you have to do it yourself.
 
Also no one answered a previous question I had about the open.

If I have a tight stop 3-5 points and bet on the market breaking out one way, then move my stop to BE almost immediately, wouldn't this be a huge probability play?
I mean, most times it seems to shoot off in one direction for at least 15 or 20 points.

Am I missing something? Is poor fill the only risk?
 

This is one of my automated strategies.

Simple in concept but has a few challenge in execution.

Like, which way do you go and how do you make sure you get in, at a price that makes statistical sense.
