[If bought nifty above 34 EMA which is right now above 5764. Suppose bought @ close 5780 what is the stoploss for this trade?

It might be 5764. May be 5754, with a tolerance of 10 points. It might be another EMA crossover to your 34 EMA. Everything depends upon your strategy, mainly on your risk taking appetite, your trading style (intraday or positional), etc.

Go for sh315 strategy.....
