20102014


Nifty gaped up above PDH. Did not expect further up move. IR formed. Went short as FTC when price broke IRH. Covered when price bounced from BRN. Next two trades were within a BW around BRN. First one scratched and second stopped out.

      I have taken that trade
      Price was reentering the early range. naturally we will go long targeting HOD
      Got trapped in BW

    I went long after the Pin bar around 10:07 (thought it is BOF of LOD) and covered at 7929 near HOD. Missed the FTC. Did not short at BPB of LOD since PDH was near. Went Long again on BOF of LOD at around 2:50. This on had to be scratched.

    Hello,

    Do you place your sl order right away once you enter into a trade?
    or give some time for the trade to move and place SL if things don't improve?

    Hi ST,
    After you exited the first trade, why did you reenter on the same pivot? were you expecting some good move?

    ST, thanks a lot. What was the thought process in scratching that second trade? Some times I find myself trailing bad trades and scratching good ones.

      I waited for a pullback and failure to continue beyond the extreme was a signal to exit

    Hi ST,
    Please correct my thought process. I didnt take entry so far because IR high was only 10 points away from PDH, Thought of taking long above PP type entry near PDH, but wasnt sure about going against PDH, so waited for BPB. BPB was only 12 points away from RN. so waited for pullback above RN, something wrong with my thought process here right? :)

      Market has proved whether you were right or wrong
      Hope you could ride the FTC down move and BOF of BRN up move
