According to me, I traded this morning's Bund session (which for me is max 2 hours) perfectly. Stuck in a 21 tick consolidation range, guess how many trades I took ? image

Yep.... but I've stripped it down almost butt naked, my chart looking like the one dd just posted. Must be 'cos I got me a suntan in Costa Rica last week... image We all seem to oscillate (pun intended) around putting the indis on, taking ...
