Dear All,
I am starting a new thread for Nifty Futures Traders. I am successfully following my own trend following mechanical trading system for NIFTY futures which i would like to share with you all. I will be posting daily two levels i.e. support & resistance for nifty futures alongwith my current position. These support & resistance are short term trend reversal points and not daily support & resistance levels though it has also worked very well in so many ocassions. My daily posting will look like this -
NIFTY FUTURE For October 29,
Current position : LONG (at 5479 on 25/10/2007)
Support : 5573
Resistance : 5728
Hold LONG positions with SL 5573. If trades below 5573, exit LONG & go SHORT with SL 5728
This means, we are currently LONG in Nifty. And if nifty trades below support i.e. if on Oct 29, Nifty futures trades below 5573 for 2-3 minutes, we will exit LONG & go SHORT with SL as resistance. in this case it is 5728. Incase of SHORT positions, we will look for market to trade above resistance to exit SHORT & go LONG.
So we are simply continuously will be in trade at any point of time either LONG or SHORT. there is no need to book profit as it will be taken care by these level it self. We will capture major part of short term trend in both ways i.e. up as well as down.
Whenever market trades rangebound, than we may have some series of small losses as trend following system will fail in rangebound market. So i request you all initially just watch the levels before putting actual money into trade. I request you to simply paper trade and keep records in excel sheet for atleast two months & once you confident enough, you can trade.
those who are new to futures trading, i think this will be the right place to learn trading futures in more disciplined way. every time you take any positions, you know what will be your exact loss if it goes against you so your emotions, fear etc will be removed.
Pl post your comments, views & feedback.
