Keep stop om retractement to above 18000

Trade active:

NIFTY could go to next logical level of 16800 if it breaks 17300 decisively. If short - stay short but dont add to shorts at this level as a rapid bounce back from 17200 levels cannot be denied

Trade active:

Take off 50% at these levels and wait for 16800. If the market bounces back sharply then close off position

Comment:

Can take off this position fully - 17300 will be level to watch. Flat for now

Trade closed: target reached:

That was a good trade. Now for possible bounce back to 17300-400 levels
