KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID TRADING METHOD OR INTRADAY TRADING STARTEGIES


The Intraday trading on the stock markets or the forex are like swimming in a ocean of fund looking for the best ways to gather the profits. The sad and the hard part is since there are so many players trying to do the same thing , the probability of gaining goes very low. The trader or the intraday trading strategy needs to be very stable and an edge above the others to win in the consistent manner.

The amateur and the other traders look for complex tools and strategies from time to time, in fact they keep changing methods and looking fro the holy grail , in spite of the fact that there can be no 100 percent accurate trading systems. it is like trying to put a square peg inside  round hole.

This is the biggest reason for loosing in the markets as the intraday trader is looking and jumping methods and trying to make the system so complicated that it is hard to follow the method easily.
The markets are not static and fully dynamic and is a culmination of so many various news, emotions and elements of methods so it cannot be tamed with any particular method.

LOOK AT THE CHARTS BELOW WHICH ARE NEAT AND SIMPLE:
The Intraday trader should work on the art of following simple naked price charts as above and look for methods which are simple and profitable.There are several price chart patterns which are easy to spot and recurring in nature. The best is to device a trading system which comprises of set rules around such patterns.
Try to make the buy sell signals more mechanical with fixed set of rules  and risk management methods.

LOOK AT THE MESSY CHARTS AND COMPLICATED SYSTEMS:
This kind of charts loaded with multiple indicators will lead to losses as the process of locating the buy sell trades is so complicated.

SUPPORT AND RESISTENCE IN STOCK MARKET

In stock market , support and Resistance symbolizes key junctures where the forces of supply and demand meet.   Prices are driven by excessive supply (down) and demand (up).   Thus technical analysis is very much important in the wake of knowing buy/sell signal .   Supply is synonymous with bearish, bears and selling.   Demand is synonymous with bullish, bulls and buying.   These terms are used interchangeably throughout this and other articles.   As demand increase, prices advance and as supply increases, prices decline.   When supply and demand are equal, prices move sideways as bulls and bears slug it out for control. SUPPORT ? Support is the price level at which demand is thought to be strong enough to prevent the price from decline further.   The logic dictates that as the price declines towards support and gets cheaper, buyers become more inclined be it intraday or delivery.   The intraday trading software can make out a p...

TRADE EXIT STARTEGY IN DAY TRADING

My Exit Beliefs In part one of this article, 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? In attempting to answer these questions we looked at a number of charts, we chose entry criteria, and then looked at possible options for the exit. And this is what we discovered: Firstly, in each case, the profit or loss taken out of the trade was more a result of our chosen stop and exit method, not our entry. 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 w...
