Another Gem - TRADE SCORE

Another Gem of Books written by one of the DP traders - U.R.Dave
He has written it wonderfully. You need to read it after the Decision Points book & everything will be crystal clear. Examples chosen are well explained to understand the process.

So utilize the time .. Go through it atleast 3 times, as Human mind never absorb anything in One Go..

Bollinger Bands (BB) - Hammer/ Stars

15 min BB & Hammer, A Big thing for me..

I Like simple things. The thing which have worked 80% of time for me is a Hammer on BB, but the BB should be either on 15 min chart for Intraday or on Weekly chart for Positional trading.
15 min time frame (TF) is what i also keep an eye on in addition to 5 min TF. If I will choose a single rule for Day trading, this is it for me..

But few Ground rules -
1) Context must be Favourable, at least not opposite.
2) It should be a Tag on BB.
3) Hammer only needs to look like hammer, no criterion for 2/3rd close etc. It should just display that Buyers/ Sellers have got active.
4) Colour of Hammer Matters to set Entry & Targets.
5) Do look for Space/ Fluids.

Addons :
1) If  > 1 hammer spotted, Better !!
2) Lesser the number of candles on Left side of Hammer, Better !!
3) If Coincides with DP, Better !!

SL -  2~4 pts below hammer/ any pivot
Exit - As per your rules. My favourite is a Tag on opposite BB in 5 min.

Entry -
1) on Break of Hammer High/ Low
2) If retraced before breaking Hi/Lo, wait till it touches 50% of Hammer, then enter at any Bullish/ Bearish candle.

Now lets see how it looks with examples:-
1) Today's Inverted Hammer coincided with BOF in 5 min. Could be entered at 50%

2) Few days back - 2 Trades with good signals for Intraday

3) Hammers & that too twice on LBB, then a Star on UBB
4) Weekly Chart- Star on LBB , then 2 Hammers, then a Hammer worked. A Star on UBB that didn't work (See, too many candles on left side of Star).
Now Grab some charts & enjoy the weekend. 
Remember, Nothing works 100% &  Not the Car, but Driver wins the Race !!

Intraday Trades - 27.06.2014

Intraday: Mkt was ranging. Tried to go below PDL, but couldn't sustain & came back in the range. 3 Probable trades -
1) Short on BOF of RH. to be closed at the brerak of high of Tag candle.
2) Short on BPB after closing below all the DPs. SL could have gone.
3) A Long on BOF after crossing all DP. Could have got out at minor pivot break on downside.

Intraday Trades - 26.06.2014

Intraday: A Great Expiry for me.. Took 2 shorts-
1) Short on BPB of BRN, PDL in the morning. Mkt ran over the Fluid. Was in Puts & loved to be in it today as was with better RR. Closed at the Hammer formation outside BB. Was planning not to take another trade as mkt could become volatile, but another good opportunity arise..
2) Again a Put on Pivot break after Tag on Ranging BB. Closed at RL..

Not being part of Expiry drama so Closed for today at 2:00.
Couldn't control myself from taking 2nd trade. Will not trade tomorrow & keep my mind in control not to overtrade..

2) Again a Long on BOF. Closed at Tag on UBB.

Intraday Trades - 20.06.2014

Intraday: Two trades today-
1) Long on BOF of RL. Closed at Tag on UBB

Some net problem, so no further trade & late updates.

Thursday 19 June 2014

Wednesday 18 June 2014

Intraday Trades - 18.06.2014

Intraday: Nifty was range bound for initial Session. Many DPs just above, so was not comfortable with the Longs.
1) Took a BOF of PDH, PDC. was not expecting much from it. But price moved in Fluid. Got easy 70 pts in Puts.
Need to leave due to some work, No further trade. Although a BOF of PDL & then a BOF of BRN were 2 more good trades..

Tuesday 17 June 2014

Monday 16 June 2014

Intraday Trades - 16.06.2014

Intraday: A Choppy Day. Took 2 trades as BOF-
1) BOF of RL. Closed when it failed to cross PDL.
2) BOF of RH. was a fast move. I was expecting it to break RL, but a Tag on LBB made me out. Both PDL, PDC was crossed few times & i considered RH & RL as Range extremes.
No more trades as waited for Price to break any range extreme & gave a Pullback.

Intraday Trades - 11.06.2014
