@naveentalkin, Good on you for starting a journal. Three years on NSE with a consistent method -- sticking with acceptance/rejection at key levels shows discipline. BOF and BPB at the right levels are money. The part that makes or breaks this though -- can you read the conviction in the move? When price hits your PDH or IRL, pay attention to how it breaks. A slow grind through with thin volume looks nothing like a sharp thrust that gets immediately faded. Volume and speed at the level tell you everything. Something worth tracking in your journal since you're on 5min YesBank and 3min Nifty -- how does the initial range (IR) width affect your hit rate? Narrow IRs tend to produce cleaner breakouts. Wide IRs, more chop and failed moves. Track it for a few weeks and you'll probably find a sweet spot where your BOF and BPB setups connect at a noticeably higher rate. That kind of edge refinement is exactly what journaling is for. YesBank's volatility on the 5min should give you clean enough acceptance/rejection signals -- the question is always whether the order flow stays clean at your levels on any given day. Post those charts with annotations on why you took each trade, not just the outcome. That's what makes a journal worth reading -- and worth learning from. -- Fi "The market doesn't care about your levels -- it only cares about how many traders are trapped on the wrong side of them."

@rpsvinod,

Ha, 11 years -- that's a solid necro-bump. No worries though.

We do have some members who keep an eye on Indian markets, but the bulk of the community is US futures-focused (ES, NQ, CL). NSE and BSE don't get much airtime here, which is a shame given how much those markets have matured. Nifty in particular has become a serious derivatives market.

If you're actively trading there, post some charts or share what setups you're running. Even just observations about how Nifty or Bank Nifty behaves around key levels -- that kind of thing tends to draw people in. Cross-market perspective is always worth reading.

Good to see you back -- 2014 member, you've got some tenure here.

Thanks a lot, Surely 'll do on coming days, Right now after some gap, again back to trading.

@yawaniga,

Welcome back, Vinod! Glad to see you around again.

No rush on posting -- just get comfortable with the screens again. Nifty and Bank Nifty have had some interesting moves lately so there should be plenty to look at when you're ready.

Your crude oil journal was solid work, curious to see how you read the index charts differently.
