      Why trading into a strong flip of BW range. That too CTwhere positional unwinding is going on
      The area was too congested with PDL, NS RN, RN and BW range flip

      I will long if a BOF happened at BW range low.
      No guarantee that a PP can work. I will prefer a TST at range high to short

      Hi ST, Thanks!

      Hi Dhatta, Mine is a semi automated trading system. All entries and exits are SL triggers. I book 50% profit at the first target and rest is trailed. The previous entry/target becomes my SL. The rules defined in my system are quite complex and include entry scaling as well as profit scaling. I'm still tweaking my system. :)

      Market is already over extended and due for a correction. once a gap up fails and price fails to reverse on gap closure week longs will start exiting

    Hi ST,

    I am not sure if you will reply this, but this is important:

    See around 10:45 the price is stalling at PDH with long legged bars. Do you see this as an area to make TST entry?

      Do not attempt CT TST trades without confirmation. Wait for multiple tests to fail
      Other wise wait for a BOF to happen to go long. Or wait for the break of that MC within which NF traded for 20 minutes
      TST trades are blind trades. When in doubt stay out. If you feel the level will hold go long near to 8950 area and risk 5-6 points. Many such trades will fail and there are no certainties in trading

      BTW, would like to mention here, there is a mismatch in the chart. Previous day's chart is of Jan series and current day's chart is of Feb Series. So there is a mismatch PDH and PDC. The Feb series chart would be like this using exchange data.

      I used continuous current month contract chart.First day there will be a gap up due to premium factor
      I have tried both type of charts with the method. I think most of the professionals trade continuous charts because I felt market responds to these levels better

      Hi ST.
      Hope you are having a great trip!!! I made many mistakes yesterday. One of them was taking a long above 10:39. My logic was like this:

      a) the breakdown of 9:57 low of congestion (marked with red circle) did not look genuine and convincing.
      b) PDH, PDC and RN were below and price looked like it was getting support there.

      Please correct my thinking.

      You said this was a CT trade, it was below 9000, but above PDH, daily in rally, would it still be a CT trade? Was it CT because it was below the previous high of 28th Jan? Thanks for your help.

    Rajesh,

    I presume you today top down analysis before the market begins.

    Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Thanks as usual for the excellent analysis !

      Markets cannot be traded without knowing the big picture
      especially when price trades outside the previous day range

    Its all about work....
    President Barack Obama was asked...
    “When is the time you felt most broken?” Pres Obama's response:
    “I first ran for Congress in 1999, and I got beat. I just got whooped. I had been in the state legislature for a long time, I was in the minority party, I wasn’t getting a lot done, and I was away from my family and putting a lot of strain on Michelle. Then for me to run and lose that bad, I was thinking maybe this isn’t what I was cut out to do. I was forty years old, and I’d invested a lot of time and effort into something that didn’t seem to be working. But the thing that got me through that moment, and any other time that I’ve felt stuck, is to remind myself that it’s about the work. Because if you’re worrying about yourself—if you’re thinking: ‘Am I succeeding? Am I in the right position? Am I being appreciated?’ --- then you’re going to end up feeling frustrated and stuck. But if you can keep it about the work, you’ll always have a path. There’s always something to be done.”
