Quick Vote on Order Placments

How many of you are finding it hard to place limit orders ?
Currently None of the Trading platforms have limit order facility. And in DP system it is a must to place limit order for 2 Reasons:
1> Limit order have higher priority so they get better fill
2> Avoid slippages.

Missed the Move.  Move came from a confluence of MSP(Not very prominent) and Strong Flip. Fall was extremely fast to catch BPB trade. Let it go.
Not comfortable with High volatility done for the day...

One Trade.
Was not comfortable taking reversal trade, Better to call it a day rather than cribbing..


















1> Bias is down or Ranging day. 8700 resisted and is a strong DP. we had rejection from there.
2> Price opened below PDC initial move is UP why ? it should have been down
3> BPB trade By Bias is ranging will avoid taking trade.
4> DH Not a strong rejection to short it it could be a channel move to up side.
5> Is that a channel ?
6> Trend  --> Channel move with Trend
      Range  --> Range Extreme (DH is DP)
      DP   --> Not a Strong one previous rejection didn't reach range extreme
      Space --> Till PDH space available
      CM   --> 11:30 - 12:30 tight range all shorts may exit
      OF  --> Exits from CM might give a good move.
7> Why it is struggling may be that is the Channel extreme. It can pullback now to downside of channel will book out and look to reenter
8> Failed to reach the DP buffer space ? Trend is strong should I enter ? hmm hesitated missed..
9> BOF of PDH , but looking at channel and Trend bit risky to shot.
Trend  -- NO
Range  -- MC candle can act as range NO
DP  -- Yes
Space -- NO (no fluid , MSP may act as hurdle)
CM  -- Yes (long)
OF  -- Longs may cover
Risk  -- Above MC candle high risk (NO).
 Hesitation missed closed the day.

Cockroach Theory

In Trading you need to plan your trade and follow the plan. This helps us to respond and not react in haste.
Following theory from Sundar Pichai helps to though some more light on that. 

A Beautiful quote from Sundar Pichai CEO Google
“At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady.
She started screaming out of fear.
With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach.
Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky.
The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but ...it landed on another lady in the group.
Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama.
The waiter rushed forward to their rescue.
In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter.
The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt.
When he was confident enough, he grabbed it with his fingers and threw it out of the restaurant.
Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach 
responsible for their histrionic behavior?
If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed?
He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos.
It is not the cockroach, but the inability of the ladies to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed the ladies.
I realized that, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss or my wife that disturbs me, but it's my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me.
It's not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me.
More than the problem, it's my reaction to the problem that creates chaos in my life.
Lessons learnt from the story:
I understood, I should not react in life.
I should always respond.
The women reacted, whereas the waiter responded.
Reactions are always instinctive, whereas responses are always well thought of, just and right to save a situation from going out of hands, to avoid cracks in relationship, to avoid taking decisions in anger, anxiety, stress or hurry.
A beautiful way to understand............LIFE."

I got some question on what is the Trading project. Without going much into details : I am coding a tool based on API for another Trader.
It is not beneficial for us. Doing it for some monetary benefit and also for some change. Trading is a very monotonous Job :).

In Hindsight Trade #2 could have been avoided. If Big picture was read correctly.
Buyers in control from 14-Sep. They are buying each possible sell offs.
Trade # 1 Bo was good.
Trade#2 could have been avoided. Against Trend.

One Trade scratched. Done for the Day.
Too late to initiate any more trades. I think NF might consolidate in a Narrow range for few days before attempting to Break 9000. Lets see.
