BankNifty Analysis - Stance Bearish⬇️ BN was unable to defend the 48115 support resistance today and it was an advantage Bears. The overall price action was neutral and that might be related to the expiry trades. There were a couple of instances where BN moved 100+ pts in minutes - this really had an impact on the algo trades, but happy that major damage was not...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Bearish⬇️ Recap from yesterday: "Our markets not rallying as against the recovery in US markets - speculating something to do with the re-election and taxation. Since I do not have any data points, will wait for more clarity." After having an inline opening, Nifty50 started falling quite aggressively. Without a real struggle, 22295 was...
BankNifty Analysis - Stance Bearish⬇️ BankNifty also fell in a single legged manner right from the open till 11.35. The fall totally unchecked by the Bulls and in a way came as a surprise as the BTFD people usually do not let the markets fall in this fast and furious manner. BN showed more weakness than N50, partly because NiftyIT was in great GREEN shape today....
Day 28: My stock looked like it might buck the trend and go up; the algo also got sucked into it, the market gave false signal in the morning and algo took a bullish trade. Within 15 minutes, however, the algo got me out as my stop loss hit. The market decided to trend on the downside but since there was no pullback, did not get entry for the first half of the...
Day 27: Another trending day. Algo gave good entry and exit, perfect as per coding. Progress : No chasing/FOMO/anxiety (well almost) Learning : Need to chase profit and not let it slip away, market is supreme and smartest of all. Money is more important than getting the math right. Will chase with TSL manually when putting a stretch target.
Day 26: It turned out to be a good trending day today. Right from the morning the market decided to fall and kept falling. Yesterday I had tweaked my algo to take entry on pullback. Unfortunately, the morning pullback was not strong enough to get me a signal, so missed the morning trade. However, algo caught the afternoon pullback and gave me a good profit of...
Day 25: Another Monday after a weekend, however, now I don't feel the pressure of being wrong because I was out of sync with the market due to the weekend holiday. Now it seems the faith on the system is taking over and the thought never occured to me that its Monday. I just let the system figure out the signals and let it work. I just sat in front of it and just...
Day 24 of DayTrading: Let the algo run from morning. Did not tinker with it the whole day. Algo gave correct signals, however the market volatility got me and took away my profits. During the day, had the feeling that now I shoud stop the algo since I was in profit of >1%, however, let it run as I need to develop faith on my algo. Overall, an OK day, but the...
Day 23: As expected, today being the day after a holiday (a trading break day), turned out to be a bad day. The markets remained range bound the whole day (for my stock) and just kept on hitting SL on both sides, frustrating (now, it's more like trying to frustrate). Anyways, I stuck to the algo, not doing any manual trades and the algo did not fall for anything,...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Bullish⬆️ Recap from yesterday: "We are now very close to the ATH and once we take out that, we can safely remove the double top pattern." Nifty does a decent climb to hit a new all-time high of 22783 and then a brutal fall of 215pts ~ 0.95%. No matter how professional a trader you are, you cannot set a trap to make money out of that move....
Day 22 of DayTradingJournal: Let the algo run from the morning. Algo did a good job. Had an issue with internet in later part @2:30 when it stopped downloading data and hence no signals. This eroded my profitablility, otherwise later on I checked up eod data and ran a backtest to see the discrepancies in the live vs backtest data. Surprisingly, both matched. Other...
BankNifty Analysis - Stance Bullish⬆️ We were quite sure BN would be bullish today but honestly did not think we would gain 1223 points ~ 2.54% in total. ICICI Bank had good quarterly results, but the outperformance was unexpected, that really fuelled the rally today. Can you believe, BN overshadowed NiftyIT, reclaimed the torchbearer status, and then hit a new...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Bullish⬆️ Recap from yesterday: "For Monday, we will go short if 22295 is taken out and will go long if 22519 is taken out." Nifty started with a gap-up, then came down to close the gap. Once we hit the previous close level, magically Nifty50 got real strength and then started climbing. Nifty gained a total of 213 points ~ 0.95% to not only...
Day 21 of DayTradingJournal: Full live algo deployed. Algo did very well compared to what I think I'd have done had I taken trades manually. Algo did as expected, taking all the entry, exit, SL, Tgt signals correctly. Progress: No manual trades today, no FOMO, no front-running the signal, no fear/greed while sitting in front of the system. Had an instance when I...
Day 20 of DayTradingJournal: Today I did my first test of the algo that I have been trying to make. I put it live right from the morning and let it take all the trades that comes its way. Surprisingly, the algo did very well. (I think if I did manually, I might not have been so good). Learnings for today: Keep the faith on the system, it pays well. Since TV does...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Bullish ⬆️ Recap from yesterday: "For tomorrow, we wish to maintain the neutral stance and look for bearish opportunities if 22295 is getting broken. If the index moves up, 22519 would be our first level to watch for." Kotak Bank started the day with cuts of -10% due to the RBI news impact from yesterday. The spillover effect was visible on...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Neutral ➡️ Recap from yesterday: "For tomorrow we wish to start the day with a neutral stance and look for bullish opportunities as soon as it reaches for the 22519 levels." Another flat day, but the options premiums were not behaving as usual. The blame may be on VIX as the premiums were dead low that even a small 50+ points move created a...
Nifty Analysis - Stance Neutral ➡️ Recap from yesterday: "The 63mts time frame is not bullish yet, but we are not bearish now. The best we can think of right now is to go neutral. If we fall back below 22295 tomorrow, we might even go short." Nifty was perfectly neutral today after the opening candle. Since RELIANCE declared its quarterly results yesterday, we...
