05092014



Nifty opened near PDC and went above PDH. Avoided the long trade as I expected some selling at RN 8150. Price traded just below PDH for an hour. Short on break of MSP. Covered at 8095 when down push failed. Expected a Barbed wire around BRN and PDL. Price moved up and formed a range above. Shorted again on break of range. Move was just SL triggering. Thought of going long on BOF of LOD. Hesitated and missed a smooth move through the fluid

    1. Price will not reverse like that.Especially a counter trend one
      Expect some consolidation after the fall. You need not SAR the trade
      I will limit the risk within 10 points. http://screencast.com/t/XZl5dA80n

  2. Dear ST,

    Any specific reason for you expecting selling at RN8150 (which it eventually did)

    1. Look at the left side of the chart. 8150 resisted .
      Then a BOF happened.It failed Resisted on the retest and sold again
      It is the highest option strike that bulls cannot conquer.

  6. Any reason how you thought it may be a barbed wire around BRN/PDL rather than a move back into the fluid?

    I got whipped on 2 longs I took today, one in the early morning and one in mid session as BPB long of BRN/PDL. Both held on for a while before they hit SL. I was also looking at broader market which was inexplicably strong throughout the day but that had no effect on Nifty which sang it's own tune. Need to focus more on NF and tune out other things.

    1. Bias was bearish. Usual behavior of the market after a fall is a consolidation and resumption of trend
      Nifty itself is a proxy of broad market. No need to monitor anything else

  8. I tried to enter your second trade around 8106 as 14:03 bar low was 8107. But trade missed. I saw seconds tick chart after 8107.5 it went below 8105. What was your entry point? and what was your order placement?

    1. My order was below 13.41 bar low 8106
      With a trigger of 8105.It was a SL-M order. It filled only at 8103
      I was experimenting with SL M after losing 40 points day before yesterday due to slippage

    1. I expected RN 8150 to resist as it was a major flip. I have explained it in my post and again in my reply to zoozoo.
      Kindly read.I was looking to go short as the bias was bearish. So avoided the long and shorted the break down

  13. ST,

    Thanks a lot for your valued guidance,.Happy Teachers Day :)

    I have few questions.

    Why u avoided bpb LOD yesterday and BRN above 12.27.. there was a nice fluid on left side. Why u felt the bias was bearish. we opned near yesterdays high and just broken yesterdays low and back within its range.before we initiate 12.27 trade. Please let me know your thought process.

    In the first trade u took ,we were at range low had NS BRN 8100 just below that.. why u attempted direct breakdown short and not waited for bpb there?or waited for reaction near NS BRN

    Why u attempted 2nd trade ?we had range below it also NF BRN was near. i was looking the ranges like this.
    Kindly enlighten.

  14. If you look at the 04092014 chart you can see 8100-8110 area was a chop zone. Price got trapped there for most of the day.
    So avoided trading into that area as a CT trade.
    Daily entered a decline mode on 04092014 and today price tried to break above PDH and sold. This showed price is not interested to go up. Again it made a lower low after the selling. For the second trade I was betting on the stop accumulation .My target was LOD and if lucky a further fall.The entire down fall was just stop triggering not fresh selling. That is why it bounced back

    1. Thanks ST Sir. When you explain, it all becomes so easy to understand. It all becomes so clear. But, I am not able to think so clearly in real time.
      I am very frustrated by my performance in yesterday's market.

    2. Hi ST,
      Though there was fluid in that area http://screencast.com/t/PN8HxJYAau you didnt take CT BOF long because of prev day chop in 8100-8110. Does extended chop like that take precedence over fluid?

      Delete
    3. Last event always will have precedence
      In this particular case price has already made multiple directional moves
      More than three directional moves in a day are very rare
