This is an illustrative example of the concepts being discussed.Markings are just visualizations on historical data in hindsight analysis 
As expected nifty consolidated within previous day closing range. It was a range between PDL and PDC. Went long twice on BOF of PDL/BRN. Exited the first one at a small loss and the second one moved quickly. Did not take the last BOF of PDC

    1. Yes it was within IR during the morning session. You can short the range high. But range was narrow
      Your second trade was early. Break of IRL could not take price convincingly below PDL
      Two candles bounced from RN and closed above PDL. So did not attempt that

    5. Hi ST,
      You have said "Break of IRL could not take price convincingly below PDL
      Two candles bounced from RN and closed above PDL. So did not attempt that", i am confused ...for a BOF long of IRL arent these good conditions ? or were you looking for it to break 8650 and then attempt a BOF so that a greater orderflow is involved as more traders will be trapped ?

      I was referring to the second trade of Trader Pai
      Stop triggering that happened below the IRL could not take price below PDL.
      There was no follow up selling or there were buying below PDL. So I did not short there
      It was a short trade attempted by Trader Pai

    8. Hi,
      Actually wanted ur opinion on why u didnt consider BOF long @ 1224 hr ...that also broke days low and PDL and failed to sustain lower..

    9. While taking Counter trend trades always wait for confirmation
      wait for the earlier flip or a swing point to crack or wait for a second test to fail.
      Market rarely make a V reversal. Earlier 8 candles made lower lows. Allow the market to pull back and retest the low

    1. price chopped around the level and broke the level both sides
      aelier down impulse from 8680 to PDL is the range then
