 This is an illustrative example of the concepts being discussed.Markings are just visualizations on historical data in hindsight analysis
Nifty gaped above PDH and sold. Move was very quick. Did not short after pull back into MSP. Lost another short at PDH waiting for a second test. Long on BOF of range low. Stopped out at PDH as I micro managed. Short when price fell back into the old range after TST of DO/HOD. Covered at 8290 as price refused to go below PDL. Long on BOF of BRN. Short covering at the fag end gave quick 20 points

    1. I expected a retest of PDH after the first pull back and kept limit sell order which did not trigger
      Anyway it will end as a scratch. Long was above the swing high at 8301

  2. Hi Rajesh,
    Excellent trades sir, why did you not take 8350 as any kind of range/DP in this chart. Apologies for my ignorance.

    1. RN is not considered as DP. Once a DP or level gets enveloped in a range trade the range

  3. Hi ST,
    Regarding your second trade :-
    The trend was UP
    We were in a range above [previous range .
    Why didnt you look for a BOF range low ,PDH ,MSP .
    Why did you take a short in to the below range without confirmation ?

    thanks

    1. There was a TST/FTC at DO/HOD. Price struggled for nearly an hour to move above 8380
      Price broke below PDH and entered a lower range. I shorted here as I felt price is getting rejected from the higher range
      Then pulled back and gave a BPB.Why didnt you short the BPB below 8360. There was 20 point space to FTA Market is never going to give more confirmation than this

    2. Hi ST,
      I was having technical issues.So couldnt take BPB.
      I was keen to know why you didnt wait for a pull back.


      thanks

    3. There are three ways to enter when price moves over to another range whether it is higher or lower
      1.BO . enter on direct break if you are confident that price is going to get accepted
      2.When pull back after BO retests the BO decision point. If you are confident it will hold
      3.Break of the BO extreme price level anticipating continuation

  4. Wonderful trades, specially the last trade. Having the presence of mind and the willingness to take that long after just having booked a very profitable short trade. Excellent!!

    1. When a momentum move terminates at the fag end of the market, there will be some bounce due to covering

  5. As there were two touches at 9:36 and 11:33, I opted for BPB of Range Low below those levels. Is it correct? I exited above 12:42 bar Hi. Where should I have exited.

    1. It was too technical a BPB.Let it break out well and pull back to the DP
      No problem with exit.Price was within a MC and price may test the MC high and break down. But we cannot risk that much
