is it wise 2 stick 2 only 1 scrip trding intraD EQ?
say i trd only TS n nothng else bt TS
I knew a big pro trader trading only ICICIBANK. It is possible to trade with only one stock. Some trader is specialist in few scripts.
4-5 scripts are the better idea and more than 5 is usually difficult to track with every detail.

But only one may not be a good idea for everyone, bcoz every stock or Index goes in rangebound or no trade zones. You may find good opportunity then in another stock of your basket (4-5 stocks which u trace regularly).
Choosing one-two different stocks from different sectors is better idea bcoz many times there are sector specific moves in the market. Better idea choose 3-5 stocks but always number them. If 1st stock in narrow ranges you may get the opportunity with others.

For example TATASTEEL, ANYONE BANK STOCK, RELIANCE & OR Any 2-3 stock from DLF/RELCAPITAL/(ANYONE FROM AUTO STOCK)/(ANYONE FROM TELE). Number them according to preference and always try to find opportunity top down according to your favourite stocks.

If u find only one script comfortable then it's better to go with only one.

For most of the traders, it is always few jackpot trades(big momentum trades) which actually matters for survival in the long run.
Until and unless we can filter out the opportunities for such days and ride on profit, it is difficult to survive in the long run (except scalpers - actually a very rare subset profitable traders)only with profit from scalping.

Filtering out such momentum trades possible only using big event days, geopolitical news and most importantly from HTF charts WEEKLY, DAILY AND H4. Pro day traders trade with short TF charts but they sniff the opportunity from such HTF charts. :)

One Picture Worth Ten Thousand Words! See below example.
The market is dynamic, always observe the current reaction, find such opportunities from Higher Time Frame Charts.

I wish TP all other traders ( who have the passion for trading, fighting for survival with willpower) turn GREEN forever.

Happy Trading.

May 2018 was terrible. I just don't want to talk about it.

MTD was -33712.36 and YTD is 312.41

AVG21 is -1605.35, AVG63 is -283.35, AVg250 is -127.02, AVG500 is -299.34
June 2018 was a lacklustre month which ended in red. Seems like I am yet to get my act together after the red May.

MTD it ended at -3315.56 and YTD 2018 is at -3003.15

AVG21 is -157.88, AVG63 is -497.88, AVG250 is -138.07 and AVG500 is -266.40

Let's see what July brings, with increased margin and all.

The downslide continued in July 2018. Nothing much to mention here. There isn't much plan for August. Used 2 brokers again in July, VNS and Zerodha. Traded both EQ and FNO with Zerodha, and EQ with VNS. That's why you see entries in both the columns.

MTD it ended at -7953.72 and YTD 2018 is at -10956.87

AVG21 is -416.53, AVG63 is -716.59, AVG250 is -126.66 and AVG500 is -272.71

May be I am stepping beyond my boundaries but if you are struggling in your trades I want to recommend a book https://www.amazon.in/Reading-Price-Charts-Bar-Technical/dp/0470443952. It has helped me immensely back when I was struggling.:)
