What would be termed a Fair, Good and Excellent "PROFIT" per lot, trading Nifty Futures intraday? What should be an ideal R:R ratio for Nifty intraday?

Hi,
Traders perspective is based on his / her indicative ratio of R:R.
- How much % you allot to your Risk
- How much % you allot to your Reward
See "Fair" "Good" "Excellent" and R:R are worst enemies of each other.
The reason been...
- It will be Fair if you take profits as per your R:R. But will it still be "Fair" to see the market showing more profits if you had ignored your R:R. If this happens then, Believe me the very next words from your mouth would be "yaar yea R:R nay nuksan karwaa diyaa, thoda aur rukhta toa maaja aa jata" am I right?
- Now, it would be "Good" if you waited a few % points over your R:R and reaped healthy profits. But it would not be "Good" in terms of maintaining R:R discipline, as you have already ignored your R:R. Greed has already taken control of you.
- It would have been "Excellent" if you had gone with the market thru it's full run up length. And all the while "Teray R:R kee toa laga dee hotee" For you R:R does not matter, it seems to have just disappeared.
- In all the above instances your R:R is Ridiculed, Tossed and Kicked out by you. So a trader is never Fair nor Good (Excellent ka tao name lay na bhi bekar hai) in maintaining strict discipline as per R:R.
- Now suppose the same Trader is piling up loss still that bewakoof will ignore R:R and will start to climb the invisible rope named "Hope"
- R:R ho kar bhi nahi hai, toa yea "Hope" name kee invisible tope kaha say mil gayee.
As far as I am concerned there is no such thing as Fair Good or Excellent.
For me all the above has no meaning. My meaning and my discipline are my levels as they are my targets for my profit and my loss (If any)
Profit is just Profit and it's a million times better then a loss, no matter how small the loss is.
You point a trader who will be happy with a loss in respect to a small profit (Here small profit can be even Rs 50 or 100)
My indicative R:R are my Levels for every Trade
Even before I enter the trade I know my Risk and my Reward, as both are based on my strong levels.
My Trading Decision is hardwired with my Levels. As every Trade is different.
But, which idiot has tossed this rigid R:R formula in a market which is always volatile and super active.
My advice to you and all the traders is...
"Just follow a system that will give you piece of mind while trading. As Intraday Trading is a "Very Big Headache"
Every Day An Active Intraday Stock Market Trader Lives 25% of his Daily Life in Actual Hell. (6 hours of Stock Market Timing)
During these 6 hours of Every Trading Day, the real companion of a trader are his "Heart and or BP" problems. Salla, they don't leave him/her even for a single second. Headache toa ghar say sath lay kar he nikalta hai aur Gray Hair (safaid bal) uskay pichay-pichay bhaut jaldee aajaa tay hai.
For a Trader Happy Times are rare and sometimes costly. Only a Stock Market Trader has the courage to laugh in times of loss. "Chal yaar koi baat nahi kaal kama lay-en-gay"
Aur phir bhi log kay boltay hai "Salla juaari hai"
Bye and Best of luck in your Intraday Trading.
