DRF Signals: Indices pairs

The Indices pairs signal follows the orders on four stock indices from my master account, copied to its own demo account. It is a demo account, so no real money is at stake in it, and nothing on this page is advice.

Risk. Trading carries a high level of risk and you can lose more than you expected. Past results do not predict future results. This is information, not investment advice. Read the Risk Disclosure.

Market take

Live data is connecting

A short written read of these markets, refreshed about every three hours, covering US500, US30, USTEC and DE40: company earnings, interest rate expectations, US and euro area economic data and risk appetite.

The take is written with the help of an automated tool. It is a general outlook, not a recommendation.

Heat map: 4 instruments by timeframe

Rows are the instruments, columns the nine timeframes from one minute (M1) to one month (MN). The colour runs from strong sell to strong buy and summarises trend, RSI, MACD and moving averages. A short note under each instrument says what the readings add up to. It is a reading of what the indicators say now, not a forecast.

Frequently asked questions

Which indices are in the signal?
US500 (the S&P 500), US30 (the Dow Jones), USTEC (the Nasdaq 100) and DE40 (the DAX 40). These are the names used by the broker for the index CFDs.
What does the relative performance show?
How each index has moved since the daily open (00:00 Rome time) compared with the others, so you can see which one leads and which one lags. It describes the day so far, not what comes next.
When can these indices be traded?
US indices follow the New York session, DE40 follows the German session, and each has its own breaks and holidays. The page marks a reading as old when the market is closed.
Why can index spreads be wide?
Index CFDs have wider spreads at the open, at the close and around news. The spread of the demo account is shown on the page and it changes during the day.
What is a demo signal?
A signal that comes from a demo account: an account with virtual money at the broker. It follows the orders I place on my master account, so it behaves like a live account, but nobody risks real money in it. I am not an authorised financial adviser, which is why I prefer demo accounts that mirror what I do on my real IC Markets account.
How do I read the heat map?
Each row is an instrument and each column a timeframe, from one minute (M1) to one month (MN). The colour goes from strong sell to strong buy and summarises trend, RSI, MACD and moving averages. It is a reading of what the indicators say now, not a forecast and not advice.
Can I copy this signal?
Yes, with a DRF Key. The key gives access to the DRF Signal Copier, which mirrors the orders of a signal on your own MetaTrader 5 account. Use one Expert Advisor for each signal you want to follow. Test on a demo account first.
Is there a free trial?
Every new DRF Key starts with a free trial of 7 days. A card is required at checkout; if you cancel during the trial you pay nothing.
Will I get the same results as the demo account?
No promise of that can be made. Your broker, spread, delay, account size and settings are different, and the demo account is not subject to the same conditions as a real one. Results vary and the way I trade can lose.
Why does the page sometimes say the data is connecting?
Because the figures only appear when the demo account has sent them. When there is nothing to show, the page says so instead of inventing a number.
