Power of 25, 75, and 125-Minute Timeframes in the Indian MarketSelecting the right time frame for technical analysis is a crucial decision for any technical analyst. In the Indian market, the trading session lasts for 375 minutes, starting from 9:15 AM and ending at 3:30 PM. While many traders commonly use the 30-minute, 1-hour, and 2-hour time frames, these intervals often result in incomplete candles, which can distort the accuracy of the analysis. Instead, opting for the 25-minute, 75-minute, and 125-minute time frames can provide more complete data, leading to more informed trading decisions.
Drawbacks of traditional time frames:
When using a 30-minute time frame, there are 13 candles formed, with the last candle representing only 15 minutes of trading. This disrupts the technical analysis process. By switching to a 25-minute time frame, traders can overcome this issue and work with 15 complete candles per trading day.
Traditional 1-hour time frames produce 7 candles, including a final 15-minute candle, which interrupts the smooth flow of technical analysis. By adopting a 75-minute time frame, traders can obtain 5 complete candles, offering a more comprehensive perspective on price movements.
Instead of confining analysis to a 2-hour time frame, which results in an incomplete final candle, traders can harness the power of a 125-minute time frame. With 3 complete candles per trading session, each representing a 125-minute interval, a more comprehensive understanding of price dynamics can be achieved.
Benefits:
Enhanced accuracy in analysing price action, as each candle represents a complete interval of 25, 75, or 125 minutes.
Reduced gaps in price action, as each candle becomes a complete unit of time.
Clearer depiction of trends with fewer distractions from incomplete candles.
Improved visibility of trends, as each candle provides a more representative snapshot of the price action.
A more holistic view of the market, aiding in the identification of key support and resistance levels. If you utilize concepts like RBR, RBD, DBR, and DBD, it is recommended to use these time frames, as the presence of an incomplete candle can inadvertently impact your analysis. You may mistakenly consider the last incomplete candle as a base or leg candle, which can affect your overall analysis.
Conclusion:
In the Indian stock market, precision and accuracy are vital for successful trading. By embracing unconventional time frames like 25 minutes, 75 minutes, and 125 minutes, traders can enhance their technical analysis capabilities and gain a competitive edge. Although these specific time frames are available through TradingView's paid plans, traders without access can still utilize traditional time frames. However, it is essential to recognize the limitations and potential disruptions caused by incomplete candles. Embracing the power of these alternative time frames unlocks a clearer and more comprehensive view of the market, empowering traders to make confident trading decisions.

AU BANK, Buy Strategy!AU BANK has been consolidating and trading in a range since about 2 years now. When will it break out? I don't know, and if anyone says they do, they are gambling. But what I can say is that if price breaks out of the range with good volumes, there is a good chance that we will see the price trending upwards for some time, which would be a very good opportunity to make some healthy profits. Keeping that in mind -
Buy above the white channel, if stock breaks out with healthy volumes.
Stoploss below just below the white channel.
A target of 940 is certainly achievable, maybe even more considering how long it has been consolidating on the weekly chart.
That said I would still advise the age old practice of having a trailing stop loss in the form of a moving average or ATR, whichever floats your boat.
Syngene International - A Perception TradeThis is a very good opportunity for new comers to learn market behaviour and see how price behaves in the market from inflection points.
Marked areas are inflection points for the stock.
Two types of trades possible here.
Sell at the resistance with potential sellers or wait for them being taken out and buy the strong breakout on the upside.
There are always two ways of looking at a trade. Also an important point is to look at the market from the buyers and sellers POV.
Will update as how the trade plays out. Look to trade of the daily charts. Have shared weekly charts for more clear charts and price action.

TATA COMMThe stock is at a perfect level to buy, The volumes at the support level are very high, if the stock sustains this bulls can run for a long time.
I am waiting for stock to test 1200 levels again to buy.
People in FOMO can add few quantities at this level. and add more quantities when needed to average.
Dont hold the stock below the trendline
Gold may reach All time high in coming days.Analysis of Gold has been given in the chart,
What we need to understand over here is small/minute details
which plays a very important role.
There is this plain thinking or myth or possibility that I've heard
is that When Gold price shoots up equity market goes down.
I am observing this for quite a long now,
so sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't but what we can extract from the data is helpful, it works 80%of time.
Just to keep in check we can take trades according to this type of significant analysis.
