Why was there a sudden fall. Was this an event. Read somewhere because of fed raising rates and so on. This wasnt a fall without a news is it?

Bears just made a double century in SGX Nifty. :eek::DD

Those who bough puts with good position size like me near today's end, when Nifty was near the common resistance 10500 must be very happy now..
Tomorrow is going to be the best trading in my trading life.. Finally I showed the courage to follow the tech setup, bought 10300 put with heavy position size.. Shorted @ high exact resistance zone positionally.

Now, Dow is giving me sleepless night (due to greed), 3.65% ->966+pt down.

St da,

What was the reason for sudden fall. Just wondering should it be considered news based event. This doesnt appear a general correction. As in that case the nifty wouldnt close on HOD to be taken unawares by S&p. Generally s &p and nifty kind of go in tandem in case of general correction.

There was a fall in all world markets. We are connected to global markets now and thus we cannot escape the fall. Our markets are still vulnerable due to currency ,crude,trade wars, elections and what have you....so these sudden up/down sessions are expected till we bottom out .

There has been a divergence b/w NS and other mkts with the IL&FS issue already, so domestic macros were a bigger issue, and the US has been see-sawing with Trade war news every other day coupled with Bond Yields news. The Fed took a more aggressive approach to rate hikes and that's what blew their lid.
If you see Dow, its previous 5-6 day chart isn't strong either. Yest was an acceleration for that.
Ofc all explanation in hindsight.

Little confusion On upside. The downside if we close strongly down no 2 thoughts on that one. On the upside if this was a one of news than bottom taking place seems possible. Uneasy to enter longs on breaks and overnight US markets pose a risk. May be dips strategy for long

Only a little confused whether to trade both sides.
