21022013

Type 1 trending day. Nifty was drifting down the whole day after a gap down below PDL. A counter trend outside gap open where all the positional longs got trapped.. BPB of BRN was the only signal as per my method and this gave good profit

    DO is considered as a DP when price revisits the level.Otherwise always you may need to initiate a trade at the open in the direction of initial move.

  6. Hi Sir,
    In case of CT outside gaps:
    1. Can we initiate trade at the first bar high/low?
    2. At swing high/low cracks?
    3.At the day open itself in the direction of initial move - you wrote in your comment, so that means if you follow this entry method, you have to initiate trades in all the CT outside gaps at the DO.
    Please comment.

    In case of CT outside gaps. I feel there is no harm in entering the break of first bar or First swing pivot provided
    1.Your stop is safe behind DO
    2.There is space for the trade to move
    I will always prefer the break of swing pivot than a bar
    I am afraid you got my earlier reply wrong. I mean that you cannot treat DO as a DP immediately after open. suppose Nifty opens at 5605 and moves to 5608 do not enter the trade with a SL below DO. Let the market trade and reveal its intention. Never chase the price

  8. Hi Sir,
    Is it possible to make a living trading only one pattern, i.e. BPB since,
    1. Most of the money is made during trends.
    2. You said that the most of your losers were CT trades.
    3. Can I focus only on BPB pattern as a beginner and include others as a I gain screen time and experience.

    A trend trade need not be a BPB. It could be a TST or BOF. In fact you can capture more of a trend trading TST and BPB.
    My trend definition is different from conventional approach.
    Please do read
