My Learning & Rules (I will keep adding/modifying it to have one final list)

R1- Trust your Strategies, Rules & Learning based on the actual results. Consistently follow them, any miss can be a big loss.
R2- Book profit as price comes close to your target, don't wait for exact rate.
R3- Taking quick action is the key of success in day trading.
R4- Stop trading for the day, if already got good profit for the day, don't be over confident
R5- Don't trade in a particular scrip/index if you are not confident about the move. It's better not to trade rather than trading wrong.
R6- Don't trade if risk reward ratio is not favorable.
R7- Ready with your trading action plan in advance. Market timings are for action not for planning, one miss can be a big opportunity loss/trading loss.
R8- Move with the market & don’t expect the market to move with you.
R9- Fear & Greed, both are psychological weakness, play with it and don’t get played by it.
R10-Read the market carefully then enter the trade. Trading in hurry can lead to wrong trade.
R11-Never add to loosing trade for averaging, position can be added to winning trade.

L1- Keep a stop loss or a close watch, if your trade move confirmed in negative direction, take exit immediately.
L2- Focus on trade, opportunity can come at any time, don't miss trading opportunity, even a small opportunity can pay you big.
L3- Don't regret if you miss the opportunity, wait for the right one to enter.
L4- Trade patiently, quality of trade matters not the frequency/numbers.
L5- Stop trading for the day,if your most of trades are resulting negative for you. Remember, everyday is not your day.
L6- Trade with your independent due diligence, learning & thoughts, don't get influenced.Trading on someone else tips is like crossing the road as a blind man.
L7- Believe in results, it is only the result that matters.
L8- Don’t target the Market as you are always on the target of Market, play defensive & play safe.
L9- The longer the duration your trade remains in negative direction, the higher is the risk in that trade. Good “Day Trades” turn into profits mostly in short duration.
L10-Market moves opposite to most of the signs which actually making clearly visible to all.
L11-Analyze your winning & loosing trade timings, duration & pattern to identify what best will work for you.
L12-Market liquidity changes at different levels, at times of low liquidity instead of trading big volume in same script it's better to diversify trades in different scripts/segments.
L13-Don't get scared by negative results, wait for the right opportunity & keep trading cautiously.

hello,
Is it a good strategy to day trade using ''After market hours order'' ?
my idea is to place order between 8 -9.15 am and trade for first 30 to 45 minutes.

suppose there is some news on 'X' stock and therefore it opens at 100 and with in seconds it goes to 105(occours normally in first 30 mins) .... So my idea is to place after market order for X as 101 etc and take profit according to my target.

Is this a good idea ?

Anyone help me

sagar, before that do study on,
1) what post market order is, if your broker has the feature and appx what time order is pushed to market.

2) what pre market is ( 9 to 9.15), order placing time ( 9 to 9.08), matching and execution time and process/method.

once you study this you can get a black n white picture of reality of your idea.
once you start trading you can get the perfect colorful picture. Extreme green or red.

personally I traded like this and made overall loss.
