Thoughts on Day/Swing Trading Part 2

SQUEEZE THE LAST DROP OF THE JUICE ........GO FOR THE KILL

This is one trading technique which I use very regularly and I wanted to share the same with all. At 2:40 -45 I was long in Nifty Futures and the market was looking strong. I had to take a decision whether to book some profits there or wait till the end.

We play on simple technique that find out which is a side which is trapped and how much are they under water. At 2:45 the weighted average of Nifty future was showing 5035-40 whereas NF was quoting at 5085....a clear gap of 40-45 points. This means that the market is heavy at the bottom or lots of trades have happened below 5035 ......and the longs are comfortable but shorts are now feeling the heat. They will come for covering their short positions......also at 3:10 the brokerages will square off all loosing positions which are not covered by margins. So here instead of booking profits add on every dip ......the bears are dieing to cover their short positions.

After 3:10-3:15 there is panic in bear camp.......the die-hard bears come to cover after 3:20 and it is adding fuel to the fire. We just have to watch market going up like a rocket.....last 20 min give us a very quick move up.......and we get best price when the bears say " damn.....cover at any price...." and that is where we liquidate our long position built up anticipating this to happen.........it is a fun to trade this move.......

This is relatively easy as we are trading in one direction generally unless the trend on larger timeframe reverses during the day..

Sumit, please stop mentioning it all over the forum. It's very irritating, not to mention it is akin to spamming

On gap days we take trades on both sides...but as the emotions are high on the gap day, it is better to wait till a clear trend emerges before we take positions.

ST Bhai, today Squeezed the last drop...Tasted Awesome...Once again hats off to you to share these kind of strategy..
Anup,

If you are talking about VWAP strategy and referring to NiftyFut, please note
that the market has been one-sided the entire day.

VWAP strategy comes handy when there is a reversal during the day and confirms
the direction when the difference between CMP and VWAP gets increasing and
crosses 35.

So, in my opinion, VWAP strategy did not come into operation on 14.01.2013
with reference to NiftyFut.
