Hi All, Does anyone have any views or has tried index arbitrage? Maybe not purely in terms of arbitrage but as an additional factor to gauge the direction of the index or its equivalent future. I refer to FTSE100 here, but the same applies to DAX too(guess its easier to calculate as it has...

Guys, I think there is difference in perception here example x(method of calculation by MMT) account size 5000 Margin for S&P 500 min movement 12.5( 1 tick) tp 50(1 point) sl 50(1 point) = 10% risk(1 point) (50 is 10% of 500) = 10% gain(1 point) (50 is 10% of 500)...

Hi sangfroidFX, The DAX and FTSE are highly corelated IMHO. The ratio I would trade them is 1 DAX to 2 FTSE contracts. If you are spread betting then if you bet the same amount, that would be OK. Its basically a spread trading strategy I have been researching, go LONG on the DAX if you...

Hi Dilip, Are you referring to http://www.investopedia.com/articles/forex/08/CCI.asp this strategy? Thanks, SDG

Hi Pozzy, I was referrring only to your last 1/3rd TP, so in the scenario I am considering Take profit of 2/3rd at 1.3570, following hard TP management of 10 ticks on 2 contracts = 20 ticks. So all the risk is off the table and the trade is break even(as in the worst case scenario...

Hi PozzyP, I have been following your journal and learning a lot. I have been trying to follow your setup on my charting package(Ninja Trader) and realised that the HigherHighs HigherLows etc are probably better served by an automated indicator. With reference to your 1.370 stop(which is...
