Why should I not s/l if I have to sit on system or take care of my trade/s ?

Bhai, I am more comfortable with s/l.

SL doesnot help allways

. Perfect examples were the cases of my friends today .

1) He shorted nifty and carryng with SL 5850 . Todays gapup violated SL but took away more than what he inteneded to or ready to loose .

2) My second friend have a short position too but he had a call of 5900 in his portfilio . today at gapup he sqaured his Short at 5900 and his call earned him what he lost in the short .

So , All strategies have their own advantages .Options were not just hedging instruments but most rewardable instruments if applied correctly and with good study . ( Sincere advice : dont enter illiquid options ( very low volume) any time .)

Futures go up - takes care of call going up. Futures go down, Long Put takes care of the futures loss. Contact me if you still have doubts.

Hello,

Please let me know , how the profit is fixed at entry.
Pls explain with example.

Sounds intresting, Some days back i also develop a stratergy like this for day trading.

I had Infy share bought at 1600 levels.

I place Margin Sell Order for 20 shares(I also hold those share in my Dmat ) account at 1700 level.

So If price fall below 1690, I can take few profit on day trading, and if in case if it goes to 1720 level, i will convert my Margin order to delivery to avoid Day trading loss.

All work fine for first try, But at 3 PM, for some Reason My trader system goes to Maintainence, and Unable to convert to delivery(unable to create HOLD)

Luckly, I shout at my broker to enable the hold for my share to safeguard from loss of around Rs300+.

Though I have'nt loose from My pocket, IF i had not done that day trading My infy share worth 1800 today

, loss of 2000

) from my profit

laughing!! thats my stratergy.

ENd of the day no one will expect to try this, as most of the investors enter a segment with some FA or TA, else they would enter mostly into cash segment
