Evening Purushotham & All,
There is no typo error here. When the difference between the high's & low's from 9:15 to 9:45 is between MF1(0.45) & MF2(0.75), You always have to take the higher range(0.75) in calculating the breakout levels.
Putting this theory in yesterday's scenario, You got the Upper breakout @ 6089 & Lower breakout @ 6029.30.
Key Notes:Do not use this breakout strategy when
1. The first 30 minutes range is above MF2.
2. Either of the levels are not sustained before 2PM
MF stands for MARK FRACTION
Thanks!
Step 1: Find out the previous day’s high and low.
Step 2: Find out current day’s high and low from 9:15 to 9:45.
Step 3: Note down 2 fractions (0.45 and 0.75)
Step 4: Find the range of previous day. (Previous day high – Previous day low)
Step 5: Multiply the range for previous day with the two fractions from step 3. (0.45 and
0.75). Mark this result as MF1 andMF2.
Step 6: Now find current day’s range (Today’s high – Today’s low)
Step 7: Find out whether current day’s range is below MF1, between MF1 and MF2 or above MF2.
Step 8: If current day’s range is below MF1, then breakout levels are
Upside Breakout = Today’s low + MF1.
Downside Breakout = Today’s high – MF1.
Step 9: If current day’s range is between MF1 and MF2, then breakout levels are
Upside Breakout = Today’s low + MF2.
Downside Breakout = Today’s high – MF2.
Step 10: If current day’s range is above MF2,then breakout levels are
Upside Breakout = Today’s low + MF2.
Downside Breakout = Today’s high – MF2.
So, Step 9 & 10 merged and treated as
Step 9: If current day’s range is between MF1 and MF2, or above MF2 then breakout levels are
Upside Breakout = Today’s low + MF2.
Downside Breakout = Today’s high – MF2.
Is it correct.....
