Nifty opened within previous day range. Went short on break of IRL. Target was PDL. Stopped out of the trade. Went long on break of IRH. Initially it showed some momentum, but reversed. Scratched it. Tried another long on BOF of RN. Another scratch. Missed the down move. All the three trades disappointed.

Hi ST
ReplyDeleteIf taken the trade, where would have you entered in the last down move?
Thanks

Need your help on some guidelines for scratching the trade especially when it does not move in the desired direction.
Thanks.
TBP
ReplyDeleteI went long on BOF. Price hit range high and pulled back forming a swing low.I exited on its break. In hind sight it looks like a good short

ReplyDeleteYou have done well.Excellent trades
Candles slightly differ in your charts.But Comparing with your trades I have done some foolish moves.
1.My IRH was wrong. I ignored tails. But later market proved the right levels
2.First two trades were BO trades. Most of the time BO traps.BOF trades are the better ones
3.Wrong trades not only fail but most of the time will make us miss the right trade.
It was a very tough day to day trade and you have very successfully traded a 20 point range choppy day.
ST
Sir,
ReplyDeleteIf price consolidates just below IRH/above IRL for sometime, can we assume that it is a high probability direct BO trade, provided there is space?
Thanks,

Hi URD,
ReplyDeleteWhich data feed do you use for MT4?
Thanks
RK
Sir,
ReplyDeleteI refer to your last BOF trade. You had entered just before DO. Did you ignore DO, as it had become a very weak DP on getting breached from both sides, already?
Thanks,

ST,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for the appreciation. It matters a lot to me. I am feeling like I am on top of the world.
We are traders. This is what we do each and every day. We love it. We never have a bad day.
Thanks.

ReplyDeleteIf price consolidate in the area we can assume some stop accumulation beyond the extremes. But there is no guarantee that there will be follow through.We have to take a chance.
If you get it right it can be an early entry into a trend move.
ST
Hello RK,
ReplyDeleteI am using GCI MT4 demo account. They provide live charts for nifty future and 10 other nifty stocks for free. For nifty future chart there is no need for data feed.
If you need any help for that, please don't hesitate.
Thanks.
SK
ReplyDeleteOnce a level is broken from both sides, most of the time you can safely ignore it.
ST
Sir,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for the guidance.

ReplyDeleteYou have taken wrong trades.
We trade ranges. We prefer DPs as range extremes.
IR is a range and you can trade the range extremes only. It can be BO,BOF,TST or BPB of a range extreme.To take a trade in the middle you need wide ranges having enough space to the range extreme.
ST
Hi ST,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment ....
First trade was the same as yours.
When you say it is wrong is it because I entered late ?
Regarding the second trade if I would have taken the long at the place you took your second trade , as per my chart is it a valid one ? ..The space is about 15 points till IRH ?

ReplyDeleteI thought you entered on 6th bar.
7th bar entry is right. But it should be on break of IRL. Otherwise risk is more.
Exit is too late exit above BO bar high. no hoping. Once price falls back to the range exit. Price gave you 15 minutes to decide
You could have gone long above the swing highs
ST
Yes ST
ReplyDeleteI entered at 7 th bar...And I realized that the exit was wrong ....
I didnt have enough balance to trade over swing highs ...
So took a trade near RN...
Thanks for the clarification ...
I admire you for the time you are taking for helping us
thanks n rgds

ReplyDeleteOnce price pullback and create a new lower swing high shift stop to it. The problem is that most of the time it will not create a clear swing pivot
ST
Thanks ST
ReplyDeleteKishore
ReplyDeleteDo not take "Some" trade to meet the loss target.Even with 5 point you can look for a good BO opportunity.
I think it will be better for you to focus on BOF trades initially. UR Dave is doing it and he is doing well
ST
thanks ST
ReplyDeletehi ST
ReplyDeleteim newbee. please tell me how to know or mark nifty spot(NS)BRN or NS RN on nifty futures chart?
Hello UR Dave
ReplyDeleteplease let me know how to open M3 offline chart in GCI
Sakthi
GTC mt4 nifty symbol is not found.
ReplyDeleteSudarshan
ReplyDeleteYou cannot mark exact levels. Look at the premium of Nifty Future. If it is around 25 points Spot BRN 6500 will roughly correspond to 6525 of Futures
ST
Hello Sakthi
ReplyDeleteGo to this link and follow the instructions there to setup 3 min nifty future chart.

To Anon,
Open market watch, right click on market watch, click on symbols, then click on Indexes. Here you will find nifty symbol.
Thanks.
Good Morning ST!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice regarding scratching the trade yesterday. Please look at today's chart
http://i59.tinypic.com/15wglq9.png
Ideally, we keep a SL behind DP. In this case behind DO or a big BO bar. Now in this case there are two other options to scratch early, either point A or B. What would you suggest?
Thanks
URD
ReplyDeleteI covered the shorts above point A
Again some discretionary decisions.
The down move was just stop triggering . No follow up selling. Market has not trapped many people. Cant say critical mass is long when BO happened.
Now some of the new shorts might have kept stop above point A. If it triggers market may go up again. Isn't it better to exit at a small profit?. Then look for re entry
ST
Thanks ST
ReplyDeleteConvinced. Even I was actually leaning towards point A. Got the answer.
