yup, things change fast. for me, i learnt to jump in after move like today. that is why i didnt long EU last night, and enter before data.

i think i still a event trader or fundi trader, tech only works for me when i have no clue or the trend too obvious.

I took a few pts out of the ES for the remainder of the move but kicked myself for missing the best

Q, sorry if I confused you re the Dax. My idea was to short a break of the double bottom at 9675. That level was pattern symmetry so a chance might be triple top/further consolidation of the range. In the event price tested and bounced, then I was called away from the office and missed the break nearly 2 hrs later, missed a good trade there for about 70 pts. There was previous talk of a fractal triple top before the plunge, kinda put me in the wrong frame of mind and then distracted at critical time.

yes fractals can be useful but sometimes in the eye of the beholder so then you look for an analogy to strengthen the case. You caught a super move straight up to the 50% level of 3 weeks tortuous grind down. Well deserved :-)
