It surely is an error as per my understanding of the system. (I am yet not trading it with real money, had traded only once and found the funda was not very clear to me).
The question arises : When do we refer to 15 min./20min. TF chart!!!?? My view is when short the candles stop making a Lower Low!!! (Higher high in case of Long trades). All this in our primary chart of 30 minutes!!
May be people have the view that they continuously monitor the 20/15 min.TF chart, but then they should also monitor the 60 min. chart too continuously.
If you look at todays chart in 20 minutes there is no Pivot, yes there is a Pivot in 15 minutes ( I prefer to call it a minor pivot), but the primary chart of 30 minutes had lower lows till 1 PM. The 1.30 bar makes a higher low, so if we take a peek at 20/15 min. chart at 1.30 and we see a Pivot in the making!!!
Now have a look at 60 minutes chart, it has a continuous down trend till even now!!!
To me it seems we have been in a hurry to find a Pivot!!!
Last but not the least, one of the most talked about thing had been the power of 10 paise in the 60 minutes trade!!!! I personally use it and had in the past suggested also here to follow : To buy at XX.20 paise and sell at XX.80 paise. If at all I took the 15 minutes Pivot as SAR, still I would have gone long at 3707.20 and not 3707!!!

RKKarnani in intraday all pivots are to be considered - there are no minor or major pivots as in 60 min flow. This was discussed over the weekend in one case study of Jun 4, 2008 trades wherein Saint had indicated all pivots to be considered on 30 min chart (first priority) and if no pivots are visible then go down to 20 or 15 minutes. Now unfortunately this is a very small pivot which was formed on 11:25 (before sun outage) bar on 15 min the high of this was 3699 as per my chart (which I am not able to copy and upload am not that tech savvy but will figure out a way later as till now had no need to do so). Now this high was taken out in 13:15 bar marginally by 3707. My SAR was at 3699+7=3706. So there was no hurry to move the SAR down nor was it a question of 10 paisa save. This is my situation. It is unfortunate, maybe I have over analyzed. But somehow in my quest to take out the subjectivity in reading the situation I may have committed this error. But I still do not see where. The eye says a pivot was formed on 15 but not on 20 and 30. In intraday, we do take position opposite of 60 min flow so that consideration was not there when I brought down the SAR. Saint has said something about volumes while looking at the pivots guess that is at a higher level of skill, which I have not reached yet. Request Saint to guide us here as many of us made this move error or not, remains to be examined and analysed. Thanks for responding to my post.

Saint,
Thanks for taking time out to advice me. In Trade Tiger of Sharekha we have only 1,3,5.10,15.30,60 min TF available in the lower end. I cannot ever see 20 min TF at all, have to do with what I have!!!

vps
vps, you can add 20min in trade tiger. After 60mts one window is there. you add 20 and enter.
 
Exitting in small quantities as always......your own style of doing it.

Feeling Lucky Today. :D

Shorted Minifty @ 3685, SL 3744 ( Risk 59 points)
Covered 3685 - 60 = 3625.

Normally I see only 30/20 Min Charts.

May be that saved me for the day. :D

Cheers
