I am no good at it. SG sir would guide both of us...
Thanks you Talisman for very useful advice. I am never going to ignore your advice.
You know, I was sad for a long time... Losing that trade in Titan.
I had shorted Titan December Futures @ 3850 when Nifty was around 6300 on Diwali Mahurat trading day. It was very likely that Nifty would start correcting soon. Titan had risen very rapidly, and so I expected it to fall just as fast.
But one sad day, when Nifty was negative, Titan had an enormous jump. First, it went to 4000. I was disappointed, but decided to hold on. It couldn't go higher than that...
But I made a mistake. I should have taken that 20k loss and went home to trade another day. But how would I know that Titan would continue to move up on a weak day... Some operators picked it up. Since it was a very tightly held stock, it rose very rapidly...
I had to cover my DEC futures @ 4200. There was no guarantee it would not rise further. There was no news on why Titan was rising... Nothing... Zilch... Nada...
I lost 43k in one day. I had already lost 22k in Century Textiles, 9k in Tata Chemicals and some more... in all my 95k capital was down to only 17k in one month...
So, I'd say don't be a Gauhar when you trade. Trade like SG sir...
Cheers!
