19062014



After giving good moves for two days, Nifty chopped around.Nifty gaped up and failed to move above previous day closing range high which was also NS BRN. Short on BOF of BRN on break of initial low. Covered the trade at PDC the range low.Did not attempt any other trade as there was too many levels in between.

    1. Second one you could have done better
      When price failed to move beyond NS BRN 7500, just exit
      Zoom out the chart and see how many times price bounced from the area

    2. U r right sir, but let me tell my thought process at that time.. i was expecting some pull back from 6500 NS, near to PDL (6540)... but it went above the level..

  2. Hi ST,
    Why didn't you take BPB PDL ..NS BRN was about 20 points away ?

    1. The low of the BO candle was 7532. NS BRN level was around 7520
      Further price is coming from 7590 and already fallen 60 points
      Entry was on the fourth leg of down move with pause at NS RN, PDC, and PDL

  3. ST Sir,

    Very surprised, that you could avoid many signal thorough out day.. none worked better though, you must be having a check list before initiating trades...

    As of now, i am into trade, only if FTA is 10 points away... as i can scratch the trade if not moving as expected.. i will work on this week end to come up with check list, like monitoring risk:reward, location, trend favours etc.. parameters.. i know it is not possible to exactly follow self made rules, but having check list helps NOT to attempt low probability trades.. like how you could SIT whole day today :)

    Your thoughts pls..

    3. Nice to know :)

      2 years before, i was sitting before desktop as if i am in kargil war!
      With lot of browser tabs... around 10 (news, tips, communities, fb groups, what not )

      in SAR trading, it got reduced to my own excel, with pivots, retracements, swing high/low values, tech table.

      now in DP trading, it is reduced to 3M chart,mobile s/w. & a note pad to keep track of next possible trades..
      Simple, yet wonderful :)

  4. Hi ST
    There was rejection twice at PDC( Long Lower tails). Can a long be initiated for IRL as target?
    Also was BOF IRL an opportunity to short?
    Thanks
    TBP

    1. Yes you can go long there targeting IRL
      You can short BOF of IRL. I skipped it as FTA was PDC and logical place to enter was below NS RN only

  7. Good evening ST sir,

    I have couple of basic questions?. In first trade you have been waited for second pull back to scratch the trade it that referring to above IRL?
    There was rejection twice at PDC. Can we expect a breakout at the third time(If happens) can we short, ignore RN and target PDL.

      I waited because I thought price will close the gap. When it did I expected some buying and exited
      You can short provided there is space. We can expect some stop accumulation below the area
