03072014


Nifty gaped up above PDH. Failed to go above IRH which was NS RN. Short on BOF of PDH on break of PDC/RN. Price suddenly reversed and could not capture anything other than brokerage. Then it was a range move all the day. Went long when  the third attempt to go below the range failed. This one also ended as a scratch.

    Hi ST
    Was it prudent to go short below PDC as BOF PDH the second time, when price retraced to PDH again?

    Thanks

      Nothing wrong in it.
      But that time the assumption was a range between 7740-60
      So thought space was less

      In paper trading you are trading without any emotion
      Once real money enters on line, you will feel nervous. quite natural
      You have to overcome it by doing. No other way
      Three days are too short a period to get upset

    Hi ST,
    My only profitable trade was the BO of IRL as that was below BOF of PDH and got 10 points when NF sharply reversed and I covered at 7745. Rest all days was choppy. The more frustrating is that I could see that the market is choppy and volatile but still I traded and ended with 12 points loss for the day. For me, I was waiting for either BOF or BPB of 7760 but still could not control myself to enter into the channel movement (both up/down) of NF. Now, hopefully lesson learnt and I shall be dealing with only the selective trades. Today was the real test of the patience of day trader to find right entry and stay away otherwise.

      You must have an idea about the current range while trading
      Try to sell the highs and buy the lows of these ranges
      Do not fiddle with the middle. trade the extremes

      Hi ST, I was very much clear about the range and I was not caught up in the false BO of 7730. I just fiddled in the middle, entering in the pullbacks, trying to anticipate the breakout. But as you said " Do not fiddle in the middle, trade the extreme'. Point well taken.

    Hi ST,

    This is my First post here. First of all I would like to thank you for the e-book which you have given us. Trying to grasp many things, but taking it slowly. Today I attempted the same trade (BOF of PDH) above and took 20 points immediately sensing BRN in NS, but was not sure of third attempt trade, looked contra to me to did not take it.

    Just have a doubt on, can we not take the short trade @PDH when price retraced after the first fall keeping 10 points sl?

    Best Regards,
    GK

      Thanks for the visit and comment
      You can short there with a SL above PDH.But there was no space for the trade to move
      PDC and RN was below it. Market was trying to make a range 7750-60.

      1.As per my method No. The question is whether the price is getting accepted or rejected at PDH.
      Price fell below PDH on 9.45 Bar only. There it is a short
      2.My method is trading Decision Points. No trade here as it was not a trade location
      Market depth is not a part of my trading method and I do not know anything about it. Sorry
