Hi; I am a new trader - have only been in the business for 9 months. I have both Nadex Live/Demo accounts and other than the one live trade mandated to extend my Demo account, I have been using Demo exclusively to hone my skills. Even after absorbing (at least trying to) all the fantastic info you have on this site, I am more confused than ever when it comes to trading on Nadex.
Case In Point:
I traded the following today:
US SmallCap 2000 (Mar) >1220.6 (1PM)
11m : 14s (time left) 20 (bid size) 13.00 (bid) 19.25 (offer) 20 (offer size) 1219.653 (indicative index)
I placed an offer at 1220.6 buying 10 contracts. Looking at my chart I can clearly see the candle rising and breaking through the 1220.6 barrier moving upwards to 1222.43. Yet per Nadex I am not making but losing money; $-65.00 to be exact.
Please explain how this can be so. I must be missing something because I certainly do NOT understand this.
Thanks in advance.
