11122014

This is an illustrative example of the concepts being discussed.Markings are just visualizations on historical data in hindsight analysis

Nifty gaped down near PDL and sold. could not capture the down move. There was a FTC pattern at the bottom. Avoided it. Went long on TST of LOD. .It retraced the entire fluid. TP near PDL. Short on LOL BOF of PDL/HOD. TP at 8340.

    1. It is near impossible for this method
      Only BO traders might have entered

  2. Hi ST,
    1. Why you missed short below PDL in the morning.
    2. My 3rd trade is valid? I was bearish so didn't think of going long at all.

    1. Wait for a clear pivot low on such occasions
      It was not a very good BO pf PDL. So did not look for BPB
      regarding your TT. do not give back much on such trades.
      You pocket your 20 points and look for a fresh trade if happens as Nifty had already dropped a lot
      8320 was a good support. Look at daily

    1. Price tried a lot to go below 8320 a lot
      So I felt downward risk is very negligible. so raised the stop below first pull back low and kept it

  5. Hi ST,

    Apart from small risk, why you entered at TST. Although i didn't trade today, but was watching the mkt at that moment. As the trend was down, so I was thinking to go short after a TRAP pattern at RH made earlier..

    Thanks,

      8320 looked like a solid support. Check daily. If it breaks may kiss 8200
      Market had already fallen since last 3-4 days and today down around 100 points. I did not expect further fall
      If market create a big fluid in the morning session, it retraces it many times
      Look at 0412,0312,1311,1011,1310,1010

    1. Support and Resistance, incidentally is the first thing every trader learns
      This is the best thing and the only thing that an astute trader need to know.
      But people all over the world are competing to complicate it

  7. 4 times it tried and came back below RN-NSBRN. Can you share your thought process why you did not consider exit.

      Hope you might have read my reply to earlier comments
      RN and NS BRN are not considered as DP. But still there will be opposing order flow always. So we always need to expect some chop. The method is a combination of DP and ranges. Price made a clear range high at 8340 and got rejected . It made a swing low. I was ready to cover below this. Next push down failed to crack this swing low and moved up above the range and never came down. So I allowed it to chop there

      Further price moved 30 points 8320-50 without a deep pull back. We need to allow it and sit through it. Then raise your stop and ride the trend

    2. Hi ST,
      On a normal day, would you not have moved SL to pink line in chart. Did the fact that congestion high (blue line) was closeby play any role in you not moving SL? http://imagizer.imageshack.com/img674/5843/PNekWz.png

      Delete
    3. Look in the rear view mirror
      It was not the congestion . It was one of the most efficient concept of the method
      If you still cant find it, let me know

    5. Did you notice the Fluid created by morning gap down and sell off?
      We are already in profit. Should we micro manage and spoil the opportunity?

    6. Thanks :) Yes ST, the fluid I noticed, but thought RN+congestion BOF may be an exit signal. Will remember this while moving SL in these type of trades.

  8. ST sir
    nice trade why you entered and judged to short long was good i also trade the same but to short in such recovery rally after 3-4

    1. Price got rejected from a DP. So shorted
      You see it as a recovery rally. Others think down trend is intact and up move is just a pullback
      Price action trading is trading what we see on chart. What market is doing

    1. SL-M or SL-Limit orders are always kept above the current price
      To take profit, just keep a Limit buy order at 521.50. It will get executed at 521.50 or below
      You sold at 526.40. Keep a buy SL order SL-M or SL-L with trigger 528 to cut short your loss
      To take profit at 521.50 feed a Limit buy order at 521.50

  11. Thanks for the charts ST. My observations at -
    http://niftytradediary.wordpress.com/2014/12/11/11-dec-2014-confluence-of-support-at-8280-spot-will-it-hold/

    I must have been the only one stopped out so early on the long trade :)

    8380 was the swing low on 30min chart which acted as support on way up. Resisted today. Will it continue to resist .. we'll let market decide
