Major slippage and slow execution on a DAX sell at LO. As Immy would say, "edge was lost", so SL moved to BE quickly when it showed +8. **sigh**

Hi mate, that's just a good old fashioned Setup 1. M5 has broken out to the short side, M1 pulls back and then resumes the down trend. The red dot on M1 alerts me to the possible short.
I trade DAX with IC Markets (but am moving to Think Forex next week, see if their execution is any better).

Thanks Sam. That's definitely something I try to do but my execution isn't always as good as it should be. I really like getting the first pullback M1 S1, so early into the M5 wave, and trying to ride it until M5 shows divergence. But it's a work in progress!
Thanks mate
