THE 25 - POINT MANTRA DISCIPLINE FOR DAY TRADING

The Wheel of Success in Trading  There are three spokes that make up, what I call the Wheel of Success as it relates to trading.   The first spoke is content Content consists of all the external and internal market information that traders utilize to make their trading decisions. All traders must purchase value-added content that provides utility in making their trading decisions. The most important content being internal market information , which is simply time and price information as disseminated by the exchanges. As we are making our trading decisions in present time based on time and price, In order to "scalp" the markets effectively, we must have the most live up-to-date information . The second spoke is mechanics Mechanics is how you access the markets and the methodology that you employ to enter/exit your trades. You must master mechanics before you can enjoy any success as a trader. A simple keystroke error can result in a loss of thousands . A trader can ruin his e

Exit Beliefs -

we considered a few questions: Should we use a tight stop loss to cut any losses quickly or a wide stop loss to allow some room to move? How quickly should we move the stop loss to breakeven? Should we take profits at a target, or should we let the profits run, perhaps trailing a stop behind the price?

For the same entry, there were numerous possible exits, some profitable, some breakeven, and some at a loss. And secondly, we cannot know, except with hindsight, what will be the most profitable exit strategy for that particular trade. In other words - the exit is more important than the entry. The exit has more bearing on whether the trade ends in profit, or in the loss. But there

Pre Stock Market Report, September 04, 2020

  Pre Stock Market Report US markets tubled. Nasdaq down more than 5%. For the last two weeks, US markets kept moving higher. Today, very important data, Jobs data, is due. So markets were over bought, ahead of a key data, profit booking came. But the profit booking is so severe that Nasdaq has fallen more than 5%. We have already seen 2 such profit booking in last one month. Last month, Nifty fell from 11400 to 11100 intraday. Last Monday, Nifty fell from 11800 to 11350 intraday. When it comes to correction or crash, we always do first. Even in 2008, we fell in January, way before other markets. Today's data on Jobs is expected to be good but Private Sector Jobs data that came on Wednesday was not good as expected. That could be one reason for such a huge profit booking. Moreover, when real Economy opens up, money should move from new Economy stocks to old Economy stocks. Going forward, Dow is likely to do better than Nasdaq. But Asian markets are not reacting as bad as US. Even D
