TP ji only buy strength meaning on a retrace to 36EMA buy only on the way up (let it show some strength around 36EMA) let it bounce a bit from these levels and average on its way up. Never average (by staggering your buys) on the way down.

April 2017 was a lacklustre month (details). Spent it in just holding the position. I guess the highlight is that there was no topping the account :).

It is the whipsaws which are the bane of day trading for me. 5-6 times I watched the profits turn to ashes.

AVG21 is 201.94, AVG63 is -415.84 and AVG250 is -605.45, 2017 is at -35648.

Will try to continue in the same vein during May. Let's see how it goes.

Then I would suggest you consider building your portfolio vis-a-vis trading. It has helped me in improving my temperament and an itch to be in trade (always).
Or for that matter consider swing trading, both of them inculcate a habit of holding the winners, which is an essential quality for intraday also.
Just a humble suggestion....(am not qualified to advise).
