Nifty opened a little above PDC and PDH acted as resistance. TST of IR high gave a short signal which moved to IR low . I was looking to go long at point A , BOF of IR Low. But there was no follow through. Went long on the TST . Scratched the trade and missed the down move, Second test of PDL gave a long signal. This one also did not move well.

    Thanks for the comment
    1.Nifty Futures
    2.Simple. If the price is getting accepted in the new area, the breakout is successful otherwise a failure.
    3.Let it go and look for the next opportunity.Missing out on a trade is not a crime under IPC.
    4.No. But I take notice when price is out of previous day range.
    4.You are welcome to share. But No MA,FIB, Osci,pivot,EW,SAR nonsense.

  5. When the trade does not move well a. Do u wait for the stoploss to hit?
    b. Do u have a specific time frame within which the trade should start showing results.

    When u scratch the trade:
    a How much time do u give the trade to perform.
    b. Do u keep a stop loss and wait for it to hit?
    c. If u do not wait until the stoploss what is the negative u incur when u scratch the trade.

    When a trade performs
    a. Do u trail the gains or book when u feel satisfied.
    b. Do u carry over a performing trade for the next day when it is a strong trend?

    Within a narrow rangebound day how does a day trader make gains. Or should he be satisfied with 5-10-15-20 points?

    a. No
    b.I enter a trade expecting a favorable order flow. If it is not happening, I look to scratch. I do not fix any time limits.
    2.
    a.No such time limits. If it is not showing strength I exit.Many times it moves well after my exit. I cant help.
    b.Yes. I always keep a physical stop beyond the price extreme.
    c. Sometimes a small profit or a breakeven.Most of the time a small loss.
    3.
    a.I book profits if I get undeserved profits. Usually I aim for 20 points with 10 point risk.
    b.Never. And I sleep like a baby.

    4.For a 3M chart trader 20 points is a good move.

    Whew !!
