Analyze, Wait, Watch and then Trade

This sentence looks time consuming like analyze, wait, watch and then trade when to do all this and they to get profit?
Answer is - For newcomers it may take an hour and for experienced trades it may takes seconds or minutes.

- First analyze the market and then particular share - It is very important to know how the entire market is going to be today
   before start trading.
- Check out whether the market is going to be Bullish, Bearish or going to trade in very narrow range.
- Check out how American markets have closed at yesterday night, how Asian markets are trading in the morning (they open
   before Indian markets)
- We daily update all these status including market outlook till 9:40 am at Traders - Stock to Watch Today

Once you get the knowledge how the market is going to move (it is totally acceptable that it is not possible to judge it 100%
accurate but you should have at least 50 to 70% knowledge) then act accordingly.
Always trade in the market direction.
In bullish trend - buy and then sell bullish shares
In bearish trend - Short sell and then buy bearish shares
In very narrow range trading - Wait for right opportunity and then enter into trade. “Every day is not trading day”.

It is important to know the status of American markets because mostly it has been observed that based on American markets Asian markets open in the morning at 8.30 am and finally Indian markets open at 9:55 am.

Mostly (80 to 90%) it has been observed that Indian markets follow global markets.

American indices are NASDAQ and DOW.
Important Asian markets are Nikkei, HangSeng, Taiwan etc

At afternoon 1.30 pm European markets open and mostly it has been observed that our Indian markets reacts to European markets.

For example - If European markets open in negative then there are chances that our Indian market may also move some downside (if already Red then further downtrend will continue and if in Green then may some pressure on upper side)
If European markets open in Green then it is expected that Indian markets will recover (if in Red) and if already in green then continue their upward journey.

Act accordingly
- It is always profitable to act in accordance with the market direction and not against market direction.
- If market is in green and continue its upward journey then you should plan to buy and then sell.
- If market is in Red continue its downward then you should plan to short sell and then buy.
- This will increase the chances of more success and more profitable because most of the time it has been observed that
   shares also move in accordance with the market so it becomes easy to go with the flow and not against the flow (market).
- Because everybody is buying and if you do short sell then definitely your trade will end up in loss and if market is falling and
   if you buy then also your trade will end up in loss.
- Never trade against market direction.
- Once you analyze the market now its turn to analyze the specific share.

Analyze specific share
- Once you get the at least some knowledge of market direction/status then you can act on choosing the shares which are
   moving in accordance with the market especially nifty, Jr nifty, sensex other indices related shares.
   Note - You can choose any share but it’s our experience to choose indices related shares to have more liquidity and easy to
   enter and exit from the trade.
   For example - if you come to know that market is going to be bullish and going to remain in green at least for some more
   time then you can choose bullish shares for trading and if you come to know that market is going to be bearish and going to
   remain in red then you can choose bearish shares.

section” on our home page that is www.daytradingshares.com
- Once you get the shares according to market direction than you can start analyzing whether they are moving according to
   market or not.
- It is possible that some shares may not move or may not react immediately and some may move or react quickly so you
   should analyze all these parameters and select shares for your trading.
- Once you analyze the shares and decide your shares for trading then Wait and Watch.
- Initially this all process seems to be time consuming but as you proceed ahead and start gaining experience this process
   becomes very easy and fast.

Wait and Watch
- Wait and watch are two very important parameters which will decide to give you a big profit or small profit or big loss or small
   loss, so follow it very seriously.
- Once you analyze the specific share and market movements keep continuous watch on direction on both of them.
- You should always keep continuous watch on market because if market changes the direction then your shares are also
   going to change the direction.

   if you do profit in first trade then definitely this will boost your confidence going forward.
