16092014


Nifty opened near PDL and fell below it. The first candle was a MC and acted as IR. Shorted below IRL. Nifty traded in a 10 point range for a long time and finally broke down. TP at 7985 when second push failed. Missed the final down move.

  1. Hi ST

    Could we have waited for the minor swing high to be taken out before TP??

    Thanks

    1. Price did not go above 8050 after the entry.My stop was above RN
      Range BO trade is OK as it was with the trend

    2. Hi ST,

      Can one keep the SL at 7th candle high/pivot high, after taking the same BPB trade as yours?

    3. Yes You can do it if it is within your risk tolerance
      You can keep it above 14 th bar also.

    1. My entry was at 10.12 bar. So I think your entry was earlier

    2. Hi ST, I also entered at 10.12 bar but kept only 5 point SL (dint want to risk much on IR) , got hit, then reentered on below 11:45 on 12:15 bar and exited where you did.

    3. 5 point is too small a SL.Notice what was happening around
      Daily in Decline
      Price below PDC, DO,PDL
      Price tried to climb back to the previous day range thrice and failed
      BJP losing ground in elections.
      PDL,RN,PDL,MC High and PDC above as resistance
      What else you need for a great trade?

    1. I attempt all the BOF trades where I feel a good number of traders get trapped
