Hi All,
I just finished re working on NR7 setup with major changes in Stop Loss and Targets.
This is purely for Positional Trades/Futures Trades. I have back tested with stocks which were consistently making new 52 weeks Highs. I have back tested with Yes Bank and Sun Pharma. The results were amazing, awesome point with this trade setup is when you enter into trade - Your Stop Loss & Target both are well defined.
With normal NR7 setup, though the Stop Loss is defined we often struggle with Trailing Stop Loss. And most of the time trailing stop loss will be triggered and we will be out of the trade with nominal profits. But with this setup we will try to catch the maximum profits possible.
Here's the Trading Rules:
Always Choose Stocks which crossed 52 week High
Never Short the stock when NR7 setup gives you sell signal Since we deal with 52 week high stocks, these sell signals would be a false breakouts. Just skip the trade.
Get into the trade only when Buy signal is given by NR7 Setup
Stop Loss
Once you get into the Long trade, calculate Minimum price of the stock for last 30 days. That will be your Stop Loss. (Yes, the Stop Loss is really very wide but i tell you it really helps you to be on the trade and for 52 Week High Stocks, it rarely breaks the SL.)
Target
Your target will be -
Calculate Current Price Minus Minimum price of the stock for last 30 days.
Calculate 75% of the above mentioned range, add it to the current price of ABC. that will be your target.
Say- ABC stock LTP is 300. and Minimum price of the stock for last 30 days is 250.
Then your target will be 300-250=50. And 75% of 50, which is 37.5
So your target price of ABC is 300+37.5=Rs. 337.5
The returns is 12.5% which is assured 98% of the trades. Your Risk(Stop Loss) is 16.6%
Trailing Stop Loss
Once the target is achieved and if you wanna carry the trade, then repeat the same stop loss method.
Calculate Current Price Minus Minimum price of the stock for last 30 days.
Calculate 75% of the above mentioned range, add it to the current price of ABC. that will be your target.
I was really happy when I found my back tested results were successful for most of the trades.
If you are a short term trader in Cash segment, then I can assure you that with proper Money Management and Position Sizing this setup would give you great returns.
Please let me know if you guys have any questions or examples, so that we could discuss this setup further.
