13/05/2015, WEDNESDAY




Could not catch the big up move as well as down move

1)Placed a short at xx55. It was not filled. 

2) This time shot filled at XX61.50. Got 11 points.  Thanks, Jegadeesh Chandra for teaching me this concept.

3) Looked like Pressure Play. Had some doubts about this being PP, as the subsequent attempts were resisted well below the Range extreme. Could not figure out whether it is PP or chop and stayed out. This moved well.

4) Shorted when swing high below HOD resisted. Got 18 points.

  1. Hi Karthikeyan,
    Good trades. You might have observed the inability of bears to take prices lower before the start of that big move up.. On a highly volatile day like this, inability to move in the direction against bias can be a great signal to enter in our bias direction.

    1. Hi Jegadeesh,

      Thanks. What you have mentioned is the lesson of the day. Your first trade is just amazing. You have a very good strategy and total faith on its effectiveness and have the guts to jump in, when it really matters.

    2. I have learnt it the hard way. :D Just contain the risk and take away the expectation of making money, guts will automatically come. We just need to know how profits are made and market has a great space for us if that single point is know.
      And its Jagadeesh. not jegadeesh. :D

    3. Only way, we contain the risk is by entering close to Support/Resistance or what you call as the space of whole sale price. Sorry for the spelling error. Thanks.

    4. Yeah. Even the money management principles occupy some space there. Not risking more than 1% of the capital per trade and trying to enter in the wholesale regions is the key..

  3. Hi Karthikeyan,
    I have been following Jagadeesh since yesterday. I understood the methodology from a big picture standpoint. I am yet to go through in detail. In the meanwhile, can you please explain your rationale behind making xx61 as your resistance level.

    Thanks
    Vivek

    1. Hi Vivek,

      We have to use 1 minute chart for a clear picture. After the vertical fall, I was expecting a second leg(in 3 minutes chart) after pullback. I wanted to enter as close as possible to the extreme of pullback. During the first leg XX54 resisted and was expecting the pull back extreme to be around XX54. 11.20 candle touched xx62 and fell significantly. Could sense that some serious selling is waiting at this level. So, kept a SL Limit order between XX61.50 and XX 62.50. Order was filled by 11.24 candle, when price made a second attempt to go up.

      I have also started using this methodology just now. So I am not sure, whether my analysis is correct. Hope that with some practice, we may be able to time our entries to perfection.

      Thanks,
      S.Karthikeyan
