1)Shorted BPB PDL. Got 5 points.
2) Took another short below PDL after 3
attempts to breach it on the higher side failed. Got 4 points.
Market became too volatile, towards
EOD. So remained on the sidelines.

I also tried exactly same as your second trade.
ReplyDeleteHi, I am going to discard this signal henceforth. Such a set up is seen just above PDH and BRN, it works well. Not at PDL.

You mean to say that you will trade up-move differently from down-move?
DeleteNot sure if that's what you mean.

You play very safe games....:)
DeleteThat's why you don't loose money most of the days.
I like your trading style.

Hi Tiz,
DeleteAfter breaching PDH or BRN on the upside, if price could not move further up, after making 3 attempts, mostly you can expect a quick big fall. In case of PDH, sometimes fall happens after just 2 attempts. On 23/4/2015, price made 3 attempts to go up above BRN, but couldn't. What followed was a 90 points fall. These may be CT trades, but I feel that they are high rewards CT trades.
I tried the same strategy at PDL. On 21/4/15 price came above PDL and could not move up further after 3 attempts. Here I shorted and had to scratch. On 24/4/15, price was below PDL and could not break PDL on the upside after 3 attempts. Here too, I had to scratch. So I have decided that enough is enough and this strategy should not be applied at PDL.
This is what exactly I meant.
Regarding how you deal with upmove and downmove - I don't hesitate in taking BPB shorts. But I am not good at taking BPB Longs. Mostly upmoves are slow, Further corrective waves of up moves are also bigger as opposed to down moves. Many times price has moved up after stopping out my Longs. So I prefer to take TT Longs at established RL instead of BPB Longs. This may not be the right approach, but I have to be safe, till my learning curve goes up sufficiently.

Hi TIZ, hand
ReplyDeleteOut of my anxiety to be safe, I have made many premature exits. I may have minimised my losses, but I end up minimising my gains too. Hope I get better with some more experience.
