Condition 1:

Very EXTREMELY bullish about profits.
Scrip: xyz

Qty: 80
Investment: 2,00,000

Sell price: 2512
Stop loss: 2483

Profit Potential: 800
Loss Potential: 1600

Condition 2:
---
Very EXTREMELY bullish about profits.
scrip: abc
Buy price: 240
Qty: 31053
Investment: 74,52,720

Sell price: 241
Stop loss: 238

Profit Potential: 31053
Loss Potential: 62106

Blind assumptions:
Intraday broking charges are 0.02%
Broker provides exposer of 8 times your investment.
Prices WILL reach the target level. No question about this.
Prices will reach the sell level in max 15mins after placing order.
Buy price is current market price.


These are traded with exposers provided by brokers, suppose 8 times. So own investment is very less comparatively. Rs25000/- and Rs 10,35,085/- respectively against actual order of Rs2,00,000/- and Rs74,52,720/-


Again we are just blindly assuming there WILL be profit and absolutely no loss in these levels. Prices WILL reach this level. So dont debate otherwise.



Now my questions...

1. Are both conditions possible without any loss of order? That is if prices DO go to our buy and sell levels before even touching the stoploss.. will there be any loss of order because there are no more sellers/buyers in quoted buy/sell price points?

2. Will there be a partial execution of order buy/sell qty?

3. What if buy qty is traded but there are no buyers in our selling price, after partial execution? Will this make the trade come to a stop still until someone else decides to sell at a price point lower then ours?

3. Do we have to select the order to "Immediate or Cancel" as to not carry forward the order beyond a certain timeline?

4. Do we select certain "Disclosed qty" as to not create some kind of uncalled violity? If so what qty?

5. Will this be seen as an acquisition of a company, even if for 15mins? Is this even allowed!? :rofl:

6. How can we find average volume traded in a given timeline. And does the volume indicate buy+sell qty or only one way?


Disclaimer: I am a newbie to the whole trading business and these are just some very very wild thoughts. I neither have the funds nor knowledge.. not even guts to do something like this. I havent even traded ONCE, just doing some paper trading with certain percent of success.
Just like to know, if this is possible then how!

Hello Rajesh,

Posted this in other thread

In my paper trading I have found that in a crossover uptrend, targets are almost always hits with 0.50% up and stoploss hardly go below 0.68%.

I know risk to reward ratio is very high, but I just suggest you do some paper trading with these figures (in historical charts with 5min timeline). Probability suggests that small targets are reached before large stop losses are hit, in a moving uptrend with at least two indicators suggesting so.
Nonetheless, if we just assume these figures as absolute... is doing something like this even possible?

Yes, perhaps you are right... perhaps it is a guaranteed loss. I am in no position to say otherwise :)

But just to enlighten us, what DO the big players do?

Can you just entertain me with those questions nonetheless? Forget the quoted prices for now, lets just talk about the volumes... What exactly will happen if I try to buy/sell 74 lac worth of shares using a regular broker such as angel broking or india infoline? Would I be even allowed to do so? Is there an upper limit to where normal people (read: non-institutional) invest such an amount for one scrip within a span of 15mins? Would the sirens go off and fbi/cia/raw/pita crash in from my windows? What if I have a legimate record of holding such an amount in white?
What can stop me from investing my legal 74lac on a single scrip for a time span of 15 mins?


Disclaimer repeated: Right now I dont even have enough money to afford a second hand maruti 800 :p
Just wondering, thats all... no harm done. (Except for wasted time/bandwidth I guess)

Instead Of Trying Look Into The Fallacy of The Strategy....Suggest Put Your Trades In The Quantities Mentioned & Try To Book Profit As Illustrated In The Post.....If It Was Possible All The Arbitrageurs Would Have Changed Strategy & They Could All Go Home..With Bags Of Profit Everyday

10% Disclose Quantity Is Correct...Moreover Undisclosed & S/Ls Are Also Visible To Those Who Want To See...(Don't Ask Details Of How It Is Possible)
