Trading Plan for 12th September 2024: We will consider all scenarios for market opening with a gap of 100+ points. Follow the appropriate trading plan based on how the market opens:
Gap Up Opening (+100 points or more): If Nifty opens above 25,050, it is crucial to assess whether the market can hold above the Resistance at CHoCH Zone (around 25,150). - Wait for the first 15-minute candle to close above 25,150 for confirmation. - Enter a long position if the market sustains above this level, targeting the profit booking zone near 25,300. - Keep a stop loss at 25,050 on a closing basis for risk management.
If Nifty rejects the resistance zone and begins to reverse, look for shorting opportunities with a target towards 24,950-24,900 range.
Flat Opening (within 100 points): If Nifty opens near 24,950-24,900, avoid taking positions in the "No Trade Zone" (24,900-24,833). - Wait for a breakout above 25,050 or breakdown below 24,833 to initiate trades. - For a breakout above 25,050, target 25,150 with a stop loss at 24,950. - For a breakdown below 24,833, target the support zone at 24,706, with a stop loss above 24,850.
Gap Down Opening (-100 points or more): If Nifty opens below 24,833, closely monitor price action around the "Support Zone at Retracement (BoS Zone)" between 24,706 and 24,652. - If this support zone holds, initiate a long position with a target towards 24,833 and a stop loss at 24,650. - If Nifty breaks below 24,650, expect further downside towards the "Best Buy Zone" around 24,568-24,512. Enter long positions only if the price action shows signs of reversal near the best buy zone.
Risk Management Tips for Options Trading: - Trade with proper position sizing: avoid risking more than 1-2% of your capital on a single trade. - For buying options, consider out-of-the-money (OTM) options only if you expect a large move; otherwise, trade at-the-money (ATM) options for better risk management. - Use a trailing stop loss to protect profits, especially when trading options with high volatility. - Keep an eye on time decay, especially during sideways movements in the "No Trade Zone."
Summary and Conclusion: For 12th September 2024, Nifty's potential movement depends on how it reacts around the key levels mentioned above. A gap up may face resistance around the CHoCH zone, while a flat or gap-down opening could test the lower support levels. Follow the price action closely before entering trades, and adhere to strict risk management rules to navigate the intraday volatility.
