Stock bhai, my heart goes out to you. When I was going thro your post, I thought I have my Twin in Trading arena. So many good traders are here. But sometime I think, successful traders do not have time to go through all these. Why they should, they are making money, hence no need to know about anything new and not interested in sharing their knowledge.
IMHO, traders with deep pocket play options. Generally they write options, and retailers buy options. Hence, it is a whole seller vs retailer. They won't allow you to win this game. Future is less complicated than options, but any trade is a loser, if you are in the wrong side of the trade. But in options, even with the right side of the trade, you are ridden with the danger of time decay and volatility loss.
How about this, your 10,000 capital, with a 5% compound interest per day becomes 20 lakhs in 109 days. Add another 256 days to achieve this. I know, theory is very easy, but every theory becomes practical and remember only 5% of the traders make money, why 1) they are disciplined to the core, 2) They have won over their emotion, fear, grid and they trade mechanically, 3) They have developed a system, which is suitable to their personality, they have sufficiently backtested it, and they stick to thier system, even though sometimes it gives them losses, but most of the time profit.
When I joined employment in 1986, Rakesh jhunjhunwala, was a mere sub broker. Now after 30 years, 1 crore in a year is a dream for me, where as Jhunjhunwala, bought a 600 crore house in mumbai, last year or so.
Hence with 99% effort, knowledge and 1% of luck, you are going to be a winner. But you have to differentiate between DREAMER AND DAY DREAMER.
Enough of sermon. IMHO, Nifty broke crucial level 8750 and then 8700. So next support is around 8600. I will be taking short sides only till it breaches 8800. For today my range will be 8675 to 8770. If opens low, then I will buy at 8675 with SL @ 8630. One thing is clear, I won't keep any position open.
Thanks again for reading so far and tolerating me
