Day 2 of 100 day trading challenge

2nd July no trade as astrologically the day was not favorable for trading as per my horoscope.

Today also moon and Saturn is in opposition. will avoid trade from 12:30 PM to 1;30 PM as I am expecting high volatility in that duration.

Today 3rd July though trading is not recommended as per horoscope but will trade in small quantity as today star lord is Jupiter.

Trade plan for 3rd July 2019

Nifty 

Buy 11920 and target 11950
Sell 11880 and target 11850

Will buy call or put based on levels at 5 min time frame.

PnL = (-) 840

Position

Position carry forward .

Nifty 2 lots 11900CE long
Nifty 3 lots 12200 CE short
Nifty 2 lots 12400 CE long

I set his strategy as I am  expecting market will be bullish and volatility will be high.



Options Greek

Delta : 44, Vega : 421 , Decay :( -)  158

The position will loose below 12000.

Banknifty 

Buy 31300 and target  31400
Sell  31200 and target  31100

4th July 31500 CE long 7 lots
4th July 31600 CE  short 6 lots
11 th July 31800 CE short 1 lot

Banknifty position has positive delta. Shorted 11th July call to mitigate gap down opening. It would have been better to buy put than shorted call because increase in vega will hurt position and there is a high chance vega will increase as 5tth July is budget day.

Position current PnL is -1104

Crude 

Will trade with 5 minilots based on Gann levels suitable for Jupiter starlord day

bought 2 mega lots @3876 and closed at @3905. It gave me profit 4000.

Can I make living with short term swing trading ?

Can I Make A living By Day Trading?

I was wondering how do I manage my life style post retirement as I will reach the winter of my professional life. Initially, it was just a thought but increasing cost of living and unplanned expenses in Mumbai made me think seriously for last one year or so.

Biggest flaw in my personal financial management

I depend on endowment plan  f life insurance, PPF and fixed deposit with a very small exposure to equity market through mutual fund.

Fallacy of investment world

The biggest fallacy is return from all investment including rental income from property is negative with respect to actual inflation. This means I need to add fund to my account s that fund stays till the lifetime of my self and wife.

The only solution is to have some positive cash-flow to adjust against the dent created by inflation.

I found trading and investment is the only method which has highest probability to  achieve my goal which is totally flexible on time and effort. Here, I can earn based on my capability, experience and psychology.

Why day trading?

I can trade in the active market on equity and commodity. But,trading is a risky venture and 90% people do not make consistent profit from trading.

Plan to manage day trading as business

All business needs investment and loss is one of the possible outcome. My plan is to consider trading as a business where my losses will be considered as investment  to self learning to become a better trader.


  • I will make a plan before market opening and trade the same plan. 
  • I will trade with predefined risk per trade. Risk is the only entity which I decide  risk in this business.
  • I will work with  a minimum risk to reward ratio
  • My winning probability should be within 65% to 72%.

I will trade on selected 3 instruments (Nifty, Banknifty and crude oil) based on my research and back test result. I prepared a simple trade plan for these instruments . I will also set up a SIP based investment plan in direct equity market for long term wealth building.

I will take 100 trades on each instrument starting from 1st July 2019. I will build and share my trade plan in my blog daily. Will update trade result post market hour.

If I do  not make loss in these 100 trades,  i will just double my deployed capital.

Target -  6% to 8% per month post all expenses.

Will it be possible that I will loose all money by wrong trading? 

This is the first question my wife asked me. She believes I  might lose money in order to protect some loss due to inflation. Her concern is genuine .

We discussed and  decided to  make some effort to see feasibility of my idea. We agreed to set up a training budget and opened two accounts for trading.

I studied for several months, spends money in learning from some so called experts and did some trading. I will share with you the details of my training and those are just of money.

Price Tine Square of Nifty On Important Astronomical Dates


Nifty perfectly followed Gann Price time square. Nifty showed great momentum on 5th , 12th and 20th November  where price time squaring  happened.
Nifty honored all critical price levels during its upward journey as published on Nifty trading idea

10431
10483
10535
10587
10639
10691
10743
10795
10847

Now, possible support levels for Nifty are

11694
11642
11590
11538
11486
11434
11382

Nifty option suggests support at 10500 and resistance at 10800

My trade plan for tomorrow ( 20th Nov 2018)  1st half based on technical


1.  If Nifty goes below 10640, will short nifty with initial target 10600.
2.  If Nifty cross above 10743,  will go long for initial target 10795

I will create spread in second half  considering weekend.

Astrological view 

Tomorrow Ketu star day. Moon sublord is Jupiter till 111:22 and Saturn will be sublord till 3 PM.  Jupiter and Mars formed a negative aspect which statistically indicates a strong bearish tone.  Moon is also in "kishore Aswastha"
As per my understanding , astrological position does not support strong positive movement.

Gann Price Time square calculation based previous range and duration


  • 10774  high on 19th Nov 2018

Stock trade plan for the week of 16th November 2018

Review of  last week Nifty performance 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Post market update:

1. Nifty opened in a positive note
2. Nifty witnessed profit booking after  solid opening
3. Nifty movement picked up around 245 PM while ASC was Pisces as mentioned in this article yesterday.
4. Nifty touched 200 DMA and closed at 10764. Nifty gives a good movement on a day when price and time squared. 

I exited all my positions in Nifty. Will enter once today's high (10774) or low (10688) will brake on closing basis.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nifty gave good swing n 5th and 12th November. Nifty made low 10464 on 12th November whereas 10460 was a resistance as mentioned on 9th November.

Even volatility based calculation was showing probability of reaching 10700 was 35 % .

We able to capture Nifty movement based on Gann astrotrading methods.

Let us analyse possible Nifty movement for next week

1. Based on implied volatility Nifty has 32 % chance to touch 10800 and 17%  chance to hit 10500.
2. Next  price time square date is 20th November  and  possible target is around 10750  or 200 DMA.
3. 10740 zone will be a supply zone for Nifty. This a strong resistance of 50 DMA and 100 DMA

News which are supporting bullish sentiment in market

There are few good news  for capital market as crude price  cracked , USD INR return to 71/72 level which gives psychological comfort to FII/FPI, Domestic investors are still believing "Mutual Fund Sahi Hy" as they have invested huge cash with various MFs.

My technical view for Nifty  is positive for 19th November.

Astrological view of market

Saturn is star lord for 19th November

Asc for Nifty  is Sagittarius. Jupiter is lord of Sagittarius. Saturn is placed in Sagittarius.

Placement of other planets


  • Sun mercury and Jupiter are in 12th house from Ascendant which is also the  house of expense. 
  • Venus is at 11th house 
  • Moon is placed at 4th house Pisces and it is Yuva awastha.   It is Jupiter house and has 5th aspect from Jupiter. Moon is at Saturn star. Overall moon is positive.
  • Ketu is in second house which is not very positive.
  • Mars is aspected by Saturn by its 3rd aspect 
Market might open strong but there might be some profit booking 


Around 11 AM Asc will be Ketu and some more profit booking will continue. This is will be a good buying opportunities.
Around 1 P.M Asc will be Capricon and mars will be in Asc.
Around 2:20 PM Pisces will be Asc.

We might witness  strong bullish sentiment in the market in second half.

Trade plan based Gann astro trading principle :

I will go long tomorrow with SL at 10640  for a   target 10750.

Shares might witness correction
