26082013

Nifty gaped above PDH. IR formed. First signal was a short on FTC of IRH. Skipped it as there was BRN, IRL and PDH/C close below. Attempted a late short on BPB of PDH and this trade was a disaster. Sold at the lowest price it seems. Skipped the later long opportunity of BOF of LOD and PDH/PDC.as I suspected a channel. Shorted below IRL on BOF of BRN/IRL and TST of HOD. This trade moved well.

    I do not consider the retest of breakout swing point as a DB or DT during a BPB trade. For me, a retest after a reasonable pull back only after a reasonable time qualifies as a DB or DT. To give an example take 26082013. Retest of IRH 5220 in the evening is a DT

    Now coming to the BPB trade. There is always a possibility of the BO swing point holding again. It happened on the first trade of 26082013 and I had to exit at a loss.
    Today BPB trade of BRN is still running

    Preferably behind the DP or the pullback extreme depending upon the risk
