29122014

This is an illustrative example of the concepts being discussed.Markings are just visualizations on historical data in hindsight analysis
Nifty opened near PDH and went up 50 points without a pull back. could not get the move. Short on BOF of range high covered when price refused go go below NS RN. Tried a long and scratched as price did not move as expected. No other trades as price remained in a tight range

      3M chart.
      RN denotes numbers ending 50
      8150,8250,8350 etc. NS refers to Nifty Spot values

    I entered long as per your second trade, but exited below 13:30 bar in 13:36 bar. What was your thought process regarding SL there?

      The move was not as per my expectation. It was a good BOF,but price never showed upside momentum even though it was a fluid. 8340 resisted many times earlier and I felt there was not enough buying power in the market to break that. So scratched

      Missed the first trade. Took the second one but when to scratch vs. when to hold is not an easy one for me yet :)
      I had a gut feeling to get out but chose to hold today.
