Nifty opened near PDL and fell. Short on the BPB of PDL. TP when it bounced from BRN. Second trade was a long on the BPB of PDL. TP when price failed to cross PDH. Shorted the BOF of PDH below PDC. Price bounced from IRH closed the trade at 9 point profit. Last trade was a PP above PDH/HOD. This trade failed . Exited at breakeven

  1. Hi ST
    Nice trades
    Was BOF BRN 7600 an opportunity to go long??
    Any reasons to avoid it??

    Thanks

    1. I exited the short above the swing high.
      Then there was not much space with IRL and PDL above it

  4. Dear ST,
    I have a query regarding your third trade. The target for this trade would have been IRH. Price did not reach the IRH but bounced up before that. You took profit when price crossed the top of the red candle. Why did you feel that the price would not go down further? Couldnt this just have been a normal pullback, after which price would have resumed its journey towards IRH?
    Thanks.

    1. It almost touched IRH. My expectation was a maximum move to PDL
      7640 was the earlier BO point and a strong flip. Also the end of a fluid area
      The point qualifies as MSP also
      I thought it will range between PDC and IRH. So exited quickly.

  5. Hi ST, What is your thought process for taking long at PBP of PDL when RN and PDC were just above the range. - Prakash

    1. PDH and PDL are very important points. Previous day candle is considered as a range
      Price attempted to go below PDL and failed,After coming back above PDL, it was pushed down twice but failed
      RN was 10 poit away. If it reverses from there always I can exit at breakeven. Risk was also low. so attempted it

    1. Actually I was bearish and was expecting a BOF
      I had a SL sell order below the pull back swing low. I did not expect it to break the high

    1. How these situations are similar?
      In both the cases after breakout I waited for a pull back
      Short was initiated below this swing low
      In the first case price did not break the swing low. So no short trade
      Second case trade was on break of this swing low

    1. I have not tried it on stocks.
      You may need to back test and find the right stocks
      TBP is trading it on Tata Steel

    2. My thought is that technical analysis should work in all liquid stocks. If concept is one than it must work on stocks too. Is my thinking not correct?

      Delete
    3. Yes. It should work.
      But different contracts behave differently
      This depends on liquidity, free float of stocks, Inter market dependencies etc
