Hi,
I am interested in explorign this topic, who is actually doing automatic trading live ?
How often do you check your strategies ?
Which brokers ?
@sfl,
due to the current volatility, i suggest to use only intraday strategies and with very small tf
currently, we are sure of nothing !
regarding my experience, i know it’s very difficult to stay on the market with x consecutive losses. it’s always tempting to stop a strategy or to trade it manually
thus, favor consecutive gains greater than consecutive losses, it helps the morale.. 😉

Does IG support miniDax future?
I would prefer using IB instead, anyone using it with IB or others?
You couldn’t Auto-Trade with IB, it may come soon, but not there yet.
I trade with IG, and it supports dax 1€ contracts if thats what ur asking.
IG offers Germany Tech 30 (Eur2 Mini) (Sept 20)

That is the index not the miniDAX future.
If you backtested on miniDAX futures data it might be useless. I dont know, just my perception, I need to check it.
thank you
Sorry, futures are not my world, so no idea if IG offers it or not.

Thank you.
What is the typical spread in order execution with German 30 ??
In normal conditions it’s 1 during open hours but recently all spreads are much higher.
These are the official spreads for all major indices:

So if I trade on cash CFD german30 with euro 25 and have 1 point of spread means 25euro per trade ?
