Swing Trading Nifty Futures

*Holding Shorts yesterday proved to be costly mistake :(
Hello sekharjchandra

I trade BNF Swing on 15 minutes,
I have been in this situation many times, including this one :D

Happens . . .

Anyway what is the alternative, a 500 points gap in favor and we would be cursing ourselves for not carrying it.

As per my experience, over a period of time, it comes out to the same (gaps in favor and against)
but any attempt at hedging (with options) will results in additional cost without any big advantage over the life cycle of the system.

Although I do not trade a SAR system . . .
I usually carry the core position and scale in around open // scale out near close,
but no real improvement in overall gains, just makes it less painful on times like this . . .


:) Happy

BNF30 Trades - 10th Dec'13


* No Pivots formed in 30min tf, used 15min pivot high for shifting SAR..







I have covered my all swing shorts above 2:30 aggressive ph (APH) and taken long above that 2:30 APH and now my SAR is lod ( 30 min 1:30 pl) low-f.

Reason for my that trades( covered shorts and taken long) :-

(1) no pivot on 30 min TF
(2) 30 min 2:30 bar is aggressive ph (APH)
(3) 11:30 pl BDF by 30/60 min 2 :00 bar and here 30 min 2:00 bar is solid bullish bar and 60 min 2:00 bar is a hammer and after that BDF...... 2:30 bar was APH so covered all my swing shorts above this 2:30 APH and taken long above that APH.

My aggressive BNF long trade above 2:30 APH has been proved wrong....... no problem......its a usual part of trading.......:D:thumb:

Exited all my swing long trade below 9:30 bar low and now SOH.......will take short below 30 min 10:00 pl low........:)
