Hi saint ...as other thred is closed i am posting my observation on nifty here plz comment on that
we want to trade on daily chart taking weekly chart as guidance
(0)--at this candle we break prev weeks high
now we are ready to buy on pullbacks
Great.....
(1)-- after breaking previous weeks high we have 3 bar consolidation
once breaks uper line we are in trade with stop at lower line
Right on,......
(2)--we raise our stp to this point
Yep,....
(3)Again new trailing stop !and as there is short term down trend
we hit our SL and got out
Okay no harm,I guess.....but have a look at your chart again at this point....It made that high after which you raised your stops to point 2.After which we traded in a triangle,meaning that we have many pivots within it,but not confirmed,meaning that we didn't go to new highs,and therefore we keep our stop losses at (2).Basically that mini-pullback does not violate that pivot low,means we are still in.I agree many of us will feel a great discomfort in holding NIFTY from its high of 4200 to a low of abt 4000,but again,we are back to position sizing et al.
(4)at this candle we break previous down trend
line but did not trade as it did not break prev. weeks high
as in weekly we have 3 week cosolidation pattern
At this point,am still in.......but you took that stop and exitted.Now we have the weekly in an uptrend already,use any excuse on the daily to reenter.In this case we have a breakout from that triangle you drew.Enter there.Don't wait for the weekly to make new highs.Like that you will never catch the trend.
Weekly Down,Daily up==Forget it!!
Weekly sideways,Daily up==Wait n watch!
Weekly Up,Daily pullback==BUY!
(5)At this time ae got a pullback and made
higher pivot low ... and after breaking of prev. pivot
high we took the trade but we hit our SL after some day
Now we are in weekly pullback mode
this one 's too late....if you entered at (4) and I am still in at (1),now we have another pivot low as rightly marked by you,and then what do we have.We get a new high........therefore as we had discussed before,now that pivot low gets confirmed as your new trail stop.And that line that you correctly drew is the point where my trade comes to an end from (1) and your second trade from (4) comes to an end.
(6)at this candle we breaks prev. weeks high and ready to buy on pullbacks
Nope,we have a higher pivot low on the daily charts here ......taking out that previous pivot high on the daily charts is also taking out the previous weekly bar high.Meaning that we enter once the pivot high of 4209 is taken out the following week.
(7) we got a buy set up and got into the trade
This becomes the point of "add" if you so wish,or else just a HOLD.
(8)&(9) are trailing stop loss
waiting your reply

Satya
Yep....right on!
Get back to me if something is not clear.....as said before,finally you have to tweak anthing and everything to your comfort levels.If there's anything that you need clarified,do ask.
All the best!
