Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - ITC

ITC has been continuously stomping north since 02 Mar 2010. From low of 115 it closed at 168.3 on 17th Sep.  In this rise it had completed the five wave pattern of Elliot wave. That was a cue for me to contemplate going short in the scrip. Since it was making new highs every fortnight, it was only by extrapolating that I could come to a fair sell price in uncharted territory. And I arrived at 173 as fair point to short the scrip.

Hence on next trading session on 20th Sep I advised my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ to sell ITC Sep Futures at 172.5/173. I also asked them to buy one lot ITC Sep 170 Put at 1.0/1.5 But after my subscribers took action as per my recommendation the scrip started sideways movement between 174 and 175. But in the last half hour before market close, the scrip bolted to day high of 178. However before  market close I advised my subscribers to buy one more lot of  ITC Sep 170 Put at 0.75/0.8, which they did.

Finally today we escaped from the clutches of ITC with profit ranging from Rs 2000/- to Rs 5000/-. The Puts had helped us get out of a tight situation. In the whole drama, as it unfolded before our screen, I was simply amazed by the faith  that my subscribers reposed on my call, even when their MTM losses were mounting to five digits. I feel grateful that I have a club with members so understanding and dependable that they act on my advice, even during crisis times. It is their support which has allowed me to close 40 derivatives trades at a  stretch in profit. You may like to take a peek at the trading room activities  in ITC through the following links:-

Performance Of Trading Stock Futures : August 2010

August has been the most frustrating month as far as our stock futures trading is concerned. Its been a month which me and my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ would like to forget in a hurry. There was nothing 'august' about this month of August 2010 as far as trading is concerned.

On 2nd Aug Nifty touched a low of 5351 whereas  on 30th Aug day low was 5390. If we compare the closing prices of Nifty on 2nd Aug and 30th Aug, we find them to be 5432 and 5415 respectively. From these figures it is evident that the indices went nowhere in terms of direction in the entire month of August 2010.

Our efficiency in my exclusive club of stock futures trading during the month of August was nothing to write home about. So far on an average we have been doing twenty number of stock futures trades in a month. But in this month of August we managed to enter into only four trades on the long side. Out of these four trades, two trades had to be rolled over to September series. And it is these two abominable trades which seriously pulled down our efficiency. There was huge cost to pay in terms of emotional cost and opportunity cost. If you have missed my detailed analysis of those two rogue trades, here are the links again:-

http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7419/stock-futures-trading-made-un-ezy-j-p-associates/

Now is the time to carry out performance check of two stock futures trades that were squared off in August 2010. As per established tradition in my exclusive club of stock futures trading at Stockezy, 100% success was again achieved in these two trades. Total profit generated from these two trades was Rs 8,600/- at an average of  Rs 4300/- per trade. Details of these trades are given below :-

Ambuja Cement August Futures(Long) :

Bought at 113.5 and covered at 115.3. Lot size = 2000. Investment = Rs 46,000/-.

Profit = 1.8x2000= Rs 3600/-. Return on Investment = 8%

Patni August Futures(Long) :

Bought at 450 and covered at 460. Lot size = 500. Investment = Rs 45,000/-.

Profit = 10x500= Rs 5000/-. Return on Investment = 11%

Now in September we have finally got our bearings and market has also started trending. In September so far we have successfully squared off eight stock futures trades. Two trades are already open, out of which we shall be exiting one of them in next trading session on Monday. We plan to pick up speed of trading in September and hence I call upon all my subscribers to be mentally prepared for the same. Got to catch up for the lost time and opportunity in August, you see!!

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Sesagoa

Trade in Sesagoa has not been an inspiring trade. On 9th Sep I gave a call to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/  to buy Sesagoa Sep Futures at 312/315. Day low on that day was 310.1 and from that point Sesagoa has kept itself higher only. But still my subscribers could not benefit from buying a scrip at its recent low. It was because I was not comfortable with the negative news flow of this company and its group companies. But technically speaking it was the right time to buy. Reasons for buying this scrip were as follows:-

1. There was bullish MACD crossover by its trigger line from below zero.
2. My customized Slow Stochastic had reached its oversold position.
3. Bollinger bands had narrowed down considerably and the buy price was at the lower end of the band.
4. Upper band of Bollinger was forming around 330, indicating that the scrip should test this upper band as the first resistance.

Despite all the above reasons there was a degree of discomfort in short term due to negative developments of illegal mining in Orissa and also environmental issues. So this is what I had to say after the close of trading on 9th Sep.

Posted by Archana Debnath - Sat, Sep 11, 2010 9:35AM IST

“

On Monday,if Sesagoa opens gap up above 320, then hold with stop loss at 318 for tgt of 330/335. Otherwise exit at 318/319

”

On Monday, ie 13 Sep, the scrip did open gap up but only around 315.5. That made me give the target to exit at 320, because it was the first minor resistance of 10 day EMA. Instructions during trading hours on  13th Sep are reproduced below:-

Posted by Archana Debnath - Mon, Sep 13, 2010 9:42AM IST

“

All to exit at 320/322

”

By exiting this trade my subscribers could manage to book profit of about Rs 2000/3000 only in two trading sessions. However on 13th Sep  itself, Sesagoa made a day high of 327 and closed at 325. And the very next day the scrip made a day high of 332, but we had already exited without reaping the actual benefit. This is what fear can do to you. Wish I had more conviction in my target initially given out on 11th Sep.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Relinfra

I missed the move of Reliance Infra from its low of 988 on 27th Aug. Confirmation to bullish reversal were evident in charts on 30th and 31st Aug. But yet I missed it. And the culprits for this miss were the positions in Reliance and J P Associate, where I was busy doing damage control. If you have missed my thoughts on trades in Reliance and J P Associate, here are the links again:
http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7405/stock-futures-trading-made-un-ezy-reliance-industries/
http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7419/stock-futures-trading-made-un-ezy-j-p-associates/

By the time I could disengage my mind from Reliance and J P Associate, Reliance Infra had already closed at 1040 on 3rd Sep. Next trading session on 6th Sep, I gave a call to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ to buy Relinfra Sep Futures between 1035/1040 for a target of 1070/1075. With the prevailing uncertainty in the market it was a buy call slightly on the higher side for Relinfra. But I still went ahead because of the following reasons:-

1. On 3rd Sep Relinfra had convincingly closed above 10 day EMA. 
2. Its 20 DMA line was at 1050 price level. 
3. Its 30 day EMA was at 1065 price level.
4. The upper band of Bollinger was forming at price level of 1080.
5. Even its 200 DMA was converging on price level of 1080 to give resistance.

So it was expected that the scrip will finally try to test its major resistance at 1080. But the smaller resistances at each level was worrying me along with the fact that we had entered the scrip at a slightly higher level. Uncertain market conditions were also not helping me firm up my mind. Therefore to be on safer side I gave out instructions to trade with trailing stop loss. Trading room details are in this link: http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7331/buy-relinfra-sept-fut/  From this link I am reproducing below the relevant comment thread which gives out my safety instructions keeping in mind all resistance levels:-

Posted by Archana Debnath - Mon, Sep 06, 2010 12:52PM IST

“

As it crosses 1055, put trailing stop loss at 1050. After it crosses 1060, put S/L at 1055 and wait 4 tgt of 1070/1075

”

Finally trailing stop loss was met at the very first resistance level. So my subscribers had to exit this trade with  intra-day profit of about Rs 3000/-. Academically speaking,  the scrip made a high of 1087 on 14th Sep, but my subscribers had exited intra-day on 6th Sep itself with some profit from a trade which was intrinsically a risky trade. And the reason for being risky was that I could not catch this trade at its low, to provide for the conviction I neded to hold for long.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Punj Lloyd

What can be said of Punj Lloyd! A company with such strong order book and global presence has been trading at 52 week low on 1st Sep. And on 2nd Sep I gave a call to buy Punj Lloyd Sep Futures to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ . Another call which could be termed as contrarian to market sentiments. Then why did I give such a call? Find the reasons below:-

1. Bollinger Band contraction had been significant with price of 1st Sep touching the lower band of this narrowed Bollinger. The upper band was getting formed at price level of 120.
2. Trigger line had started crossover of MACD line from below zero.
3. In Ultimate Oscillator there was bullish crossover of line of 30 from below.
4. In ADX there was evidence of jump in buying line with decrease in volatility.
5. And finally my own customized Slow Stochastic was again screaming oversold to maximum level.

From the above signals I was convinced that whatever the TV channels might be saying, there was merit in buying Punj Lloyd at that point. I was sure that the scrip would  move up to 120, albeit at a slow pace since the volatility index was dropping sharply. However those who entered the scrip could book intra-day profit of Rs 3500/-. One of my subscribers who had carried the position overnight could make a profit of Rs 7000/- next day. That's how easy it is!! From purely academic standpoint, Punj Lloyd made a day high of 119.6 in the last trading session.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - EKC

EKC has been a case of how fundamentals of a company and its performance has no bearing while making money through trading stock futures. When I gave my recommendation to buy EKC Sep Futures on 2nd Sep at http://www.stockezy.com/  some of my subscribers were taken by surprise, resulting in indignation. Their indignation was justified since here was a buy recommendation of a company which was trading at its 52 week low while the index was making new highs. Anyone can put two and two together and arrive at the conclusion that fundamentally speaking this was a wrong call. The trading room details are in this link here: http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7298/buy-ekc-sept-futures/ . Such justified indignation was aired in the trading room which I m reproducing below:-

Posted by simanchal ratha - Thu, Sep 02, 2010 2:20PM IST

“

can you explain why you have recommended ekc ? is it for the reason that it is trading around its 52 week lows ?

”

But as I mentioned earlier, fundamentals of a sector or a company has no place in trading stock futures. It is all about timing your entry. Following are the reasons why I had recommended a buy of EKC Sep Futures, despite highly negative market sentiments for the company:-

1. From 27th Aug to 1st Sep, EKC was continuously getting support at 107 price level.
2. This accumulation by smart money was happening at lower band of Bollinger with the upper band suggesting a target of 120.
3. Strong resistance zone was also evident at price level of 121/122, suggesting that this accumulation at 107 price level will try to test that resistance zone.
4. My own customized Slow Stochastic was screaming out maximum tolerance of being oversold.

Hence armed with this knowledge I gave this buy call of EKC Sep Futures. Those who bought the scrip exited with intra-day profit ranging from Rs 6300/- to Rs 7500/- in 2 hours flat. As easy as that!! And finally in last trading session this scrip made a high of 123.2 , but that is just a point of academic interest. 

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Rpower

Since May 2009 Rpower has been moving sideways between the price range of 140 to 200. That is a very long time for sideways movement. It only indicates that any move outside this range will be ferocious in intensity. In my opinion the move out of this sideways range will be on the upside. This I have inferred from Elliot Wave calculations. Hence if you are a long term investor then Rpower is one space where you should invest at current level of 160.

For trading in stock futures the long term story of a scrip does not help. The daily requirement of mark-to-market (mtm) deters one from holding a position for long term. Trading by retail investors in stock futures can be meaningful at best for short term. Hence the moment I saw near term prospects of making profit in Rpower I gave my recommendations for buying it. On 16 Aug 2010, my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/  bought Rpower Aug Futures as per my recommendations between 154/156.

I had recommended buy of  Rpower for the following reasons :-

1. Support of 200 day moving average was available at 154.
2. My customized slow stochastic was at its maximum oversold position.
3. There had been no technical bounce worth its name from price level of 190. Hence from support of 200 DMA it was logical to expect at least a bounce of 23.6%. That would mean a price level of 163 if the scrip had made a bottom at 154.

However the scrip made bottom at 150.5 with a flourish. It formed the Hammer at 150.5 on 18th Aug which I explained to my subscribers during the course of trading and this can be seen at this link here: http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7079/buy-rpower-august-futures/. From this link I am reproducing the relevant comment thread below:-

Posted by Archana Debnath - Mon, Aug 23, 2010 5:38PM IST

“

@Neelima. I know it is testing ur patience. For the time being just relax. Process of bottom formation at times can b testing to the nerves. Rpower has hammered its short term bottom price at 150.5. Before exploding upwards it is trying to shake away the weak hands. That is one of the ways for market makers to make money. After all futures trading is a zero sum game. If multitude of retail investors and other fishes do not lose money, then how will handful of big fishes gain handsomely??

”

With hammer at 150.5 in place, the minimum bounce of 23.6% meant a price target of 160. This hammer price was not violated on 26th Aug which gave me the strength to recommend to my subscribers to buy 2 lots of  Rpower 160 Call at average price of Rs 2/- on 30th and 31st Aug.. And as expected Rpower sailed to 161.8 on 6th Sep. Since Rpower 160 Calls were out-of-money call options, one lot of size 2000 shares was available for total capital investment of only Rs 4000/- . But the price increase in these calls was fast and furious once the stock price neared 160. Those who entered these positions realized how easy it is to profit from futures and options at correct entry point.

Stock Futures Trading Made Un-Ezy : J P Associates

When you start making mistakes, they come in a bundle. After making the mistake of getting overwhelmed by company aura and fundamentals in the case of Reliance (as discussed in my last post http://archana-archdeb.blogspot.com/2010/09/stock-futures-trading-made-un-ezy.html), I made the cardinal mistake of 'trading news' in this curious case of JP Associates. I seem to have developed a penchant for not practicing what I am preaching. In fact just 45 days back, I had written a post which did spell out things to be ensured to succeed in trading stock futures. And of course in that post I clearly warned everyone against trading any news - good or bad. Check out this link here : http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/6872/stock-futures-trading-made-ezy-ultra-tech-cement/

But when it came to observing my rules, I fell short of expectations. The news, which lured me into breaking my own rules, was that a deal had been brokered between agitating farmers and UP Govt for land compensation rate along Yamuna Expressway. Agitating farmers were demanding higher compensation rate for acquisition of their land by UP Govt. Finally the govt conceded to giving Rs 580 per sq m to agitating farmers. This was a huge plus for JP Group which is developing  Yamuna Expressway and connected infrastructure along this corridor. Now JP Group could progress with Project implementation in real earnest after lingering for nearly nine years.

The potential of this news was so huge that JP Associate Aug Futures surged from 117 to 125 in 3 trading sessions. On fateful day of 23rd Aug I succumbed to the potential of this news and recommended a buy at 121/122.5 to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ . From that day onwards JP Associates kept sliding down for eight trading sessions. On 31st Aug it made a low of 107.8. The reason for this slide was that a faction of farmers led by a new leader rejected the deal and hankered for still higher compensation rate. They even turned violent and burned earth moving equipment and damaged other assets of JP Group. So much for trading good news!!

Sitting 1600 km away we had to move into damage control mode. On 30th Aug  I advised my subscribers to buy one lot JP 120 Call of Sep series at 2.5/3.5. Again on 31st Aug  I advised them to buy another lot of JP 110 Call of Sep series at 4.05/4.15. Un-ezy trading details, as things happened in trading room on daily basis, are available in this link here : http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7186/buy-jp-associate-sep-futures/

In last trading session JP Associates Sep Fut made a high of 127.7 . But for me and my subscribers it was one of the costliest lessons learned the hard way - "Never trade News".

Stock Futures Trading Made Un-Ezy : Reliance Industries

Harsh lessons have surfaced from trading Reliance Futures. A company which stands at world No 2  in terms of returns to shareholders, has given sleepless nights to my subscribers for about a month for having bought it at seemingly reasonable price level of 1000. This happened at a time when indices were slowly creeping northwards, while Reliance slid south.


Let me begin from the start. On 10 Aug 2010, I had recommended buying Reliance Aug Fut to my subscribers at  http://www.stockezy.com/  at 990/1000. This decision to buy at 1000 level was result of  awe for the company and not any technical reason. On the contrary I had aired my  technical view at the site on 6th Aug. Reproduced  below is relevant comments section of this link  http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/6934/buy-ambujacem-aug-futures/ which explains it all :-

Posted by Shan Upadhyaya - Fri, Aug 06, 2010 1:27PM IST

“

Mam. I have one lot reliance @ 1017. bought it yesterday. what are your views for reliance? Its been making new lows everyday.

”

Posted by Archana Debnath - Fri, Aug 06, 2010 1:37PM IST

“

@Shantanu. Reliance is technically in down move. It has strong support at 960. So broadly it will come down to 980 before it manages a technical bounce. So try and get out of this position at around 1020.

”

But as I mentioned earlier, the fundamentals of the company got the better of my senses and I was as if mesmerized into recommending  Reliance, believing 1000 level to be mouth watering level, against my own technical reading. Result was that on 18th Aug the scrip slid down to 962.4 and from there bounced back to  997.4 on 20th Aug. So much profit could have been realized if only I had not got over-awed by  name of the company. While trading stock futures it is absolutely imperative not to get carried away by fundamentals of a company.  In fact  12 months back I had laid down certain Laws to be observed during trading in stock market. In this trade I violated Law #3 enunciated in this post of mine http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/3514/Starter-Kit-For-Newbie-Investors--Laws-of-Nature/

Finally on 30th and 31st Aug  when Reliance made a low of 920.9 we had to resort to buying one lot each of Reliance Sept 1000 and 980 Call options. This was to facilitate easy exit from the combined  positions of Futures and options. That was achieved and today in trading  Reliance finally made a day high of 1004, revisiting our buy price level. Uneasy actual trading details are here in this link http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7024/buy-reliance-aug-futures/

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Patni Computers

On 30 July 2010, my subscribers at www.stockezy.com traded Patni and made Rs 3000/3500. Again today they could make profit in a fresh trade in Patni Computers. Profit booked in this new position today ranged from Rs 3500/- to Rs 6000/-. Yet another trade where my subscribers smartly made reasonable profit from a long position(ie Buy position) in conditions of depressingly negative market sentiments. This again has been possible by calculating the point of bounce with Fibonacci golden ratios. Stock Futures trading done in very simple manner!!

Patni Computer August Futures was recommended by me on 10th August to be bought at 450/452. Target given was 478. However today after 2 trading days I gave a call to book profit at 460. You will appreciate that market conditions were very negative in early trade and so I thought it wise to lock profit, though small. And there I was proven wrong. Patni raced off to make day high of 483.8, even surpassing my initial given target of 478. But I think it is better to be safe in this market than be sorry. My subscribers could make profit, in a falling market, trading stock futures and that is more important. Here is the link to details of actual trading with time stamp : http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/7047/buy-patni-aug-futures/ .

With today's concluded trade in Patni, we are still maintaining our tradition of 100% success in our exclusive club of futures trading at Stockezy. This success rate is being maintained for the last 3 months. I wonder how many more successful trades in stock futures are required for retail investors to realize that there is money to be made in trading stock futures in small simple ways!!! Stockezy provides this wonderful opportunity to make good money for a very small subscription amount, and that needs to be tapped by one and all.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Ambuja Cements

Trading stock futures has been a rewarding experience for my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ , a fact that been proven over and over again with a 100% success record in more than 30 trades. Not one stock futures trade has been a failed trade. Every trade has given profit to my subscribers. Profit realized by my subscribers has been to the tune of Rs 25000/- to Rs 35000/- in last three weeks. This has been achieved with trading just one lot at any given time. Three month activity data maintained at  Stockezy page  http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/archdeb/closed-fno/  reads as follows :-

• Average return per trade : +13.36%
• Average profit/loss per trade : Rs 6625.57/-
• Average Investment per trade : Rs 49,600/-
• Success rate : 100%
• Total trades : 30

In keeping with the existing tradition of this exclusive club of stock futures trading at Stockezy, my subscribers again profited by trading Ambuja Cements August Futures. They entered trade on 03 Aug 2010 as per my recommendation and exited with profit ranging from Rs 2000/- to Rs 4000/-. The link to the actual trade details with time stamp is here : http://www.stockezy.com/opinions/6934/buy-ambujacem-aug-futures/

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Patni Computers

In stock futures trading one has to be constantly on the look out for exact entry point which is safe as far as downside risk is concerned. And it is also important to choose a trade in the perceived direction of the general market. That means if the general markets are perceived to go up then, choose to enter a buy trade in your selected scrip, and not a sell trade.

One of the most dependable methods to arrive at the exact buy point is the use of Fibonacci golden ratios to calculate the inflexion point in Elliot Waves. Only thing to remember is that calculated buy price is almost always little higher than the low that the scrip actually makes in trade. That is understandable since when it comes to a scrip falling in price, you will find panic buttons being pressed. This drags the actual prices a little lower than the Fibonacci calculated prices. In other words you need to put a little correction to the calculated price, while arriving at your exact buy price.

This little correction to be applied to calculated price was overlooked while entering trade of Patni Computers August Futures. We arrived at our calculated price of 470. So on 29th July I recommended to my subscribers at http://www.stockezy.com/ to buy in the range of 470/473. But actually we should have given a buy in the range of 460/463, after applying due correction. On that day Patni made a low of 459.

Next day we exited trade at 480. In this fashion my subscribers managed to garner profit ranging from Rs 2700/- to Rs 3700/-. That means a return of 6% to 8% on an investment of Rs 47,000/- in two trading sessions. We lost the opportunity to  make Rs 2500/- more from this position, simply because we didn't apply the correction to calculated buy price. Anyway, check out the link below for actual trading details as it happened during market hours. Do scroll right down to the end of comments to find Patni trades, since the same page was initially used to trade HCL Tech in a hurry.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - ACC

Trading stock futures can be very rewarding if you take care of following points:-

• You need to be meticulous in pinpointing the exact entry point.
• The entry point has to be such that even if the scrip trades lower after your entry, you should be certain to get your buy price in technical bounce. In this fashion you will never be making any loss. This is very important because stock futures trading is all about protecting your capital. If you can do that, then profit will automatically accrue.
• In selecting such an entry point you need to have tons of patience. It may so happen that your calculated entry point may not be traded for a particular scrip that you were tracking. But that's all right. 'No trade' is better than entering a trade at the wrong point, especially in stock futures because there is a heavy toll to pay once a trade goes wrong. Mark to market (mtm) requirement in stock futures can easily take a trader out of the market, in case of incorrect entry.

These are the points which are always kept in mind while entering trade in stock futures. Let us take the case of ACC July Futures which was recommended by me to be bought at 796/802 on 22nd July at http://www.stockezy.com/  . My subscribers bought within that range and the day low on 22nd July was 799. Next day the low made by this scrip was 795. This is a live example of fine tuning the exact entry point. In the next trading session this position was squared off at 820, This enabled my subscribers to make a profit in the range of Rs 4500/- to Rs 4750/- with a return in excess of 11% from an investment of Rs 40,000/- in three days.

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - HCL Tech

Stock Futures trading has been thoroughly rewarding for my subscribers. In the last 7 trading sessions my subscribers have made profit in the range of Rs 25,000/- to Rs 30,000/- with maximum investment of Rs 75,000/-. This gets translated into 33% to 40% return on investment in just 7 trading sessions.

This has been possible mainly due to high leverage available with trading stock futures. Also I have now modified my trading strategy where at any one time I give only one stock futures recommendation. This means that firstly subscribers do not have to put in any effort to choose from multiple recommendations, and secondly I can direct all my energies to guide them through the entire single trade. In this fashion their investment at any one time can never be more than Rs 50,000/- to Rs 80,000/-. Profit generated is through rotation of principal and leverage. In this manner we are also able to keep greed under check.

Now let us take the example of trade in HCL Tech Aug Futures. Since I am stock futures trading Guru at http://www.stockezy.com/ , day before yesterday at 1.13PM my subscribers had bought this scrip between 378/380 as per my recommendation. By 2.25 PM all my subscribers sold the lot at 382 on my call, since I felt we will get to again buy the scrip at lower level. In this trade they made profit ranging from Rs 2700/- to Rs 3700/-.

Again day before yesterday at 3.14 PM I gave a call to buy HCL Tech at 375, which the subscribers did. We kept the position open overnight. Yesterday by 9.05 AM all subscribers had sold the lot between 390/395. Since the lot size is 1000, they could make a windfall gain ranging from Rs 15,000/- to Rs 20,000/-. This has been achieved only by holding the position overnight (BTST if you may call it!).

I had recommended buy of HCL Tech day before yesterday because it was a strong buy both fundamentally and technically. Company results were expected to be good. And technically the scrip was just ripe for swing trading. All I had to do was to pin point the buy level at the support of the swing. Rest is now history. That's how simple stock futures trading really is.

Have you ever realized what a wonderful platform Stockezy has provided to retail investors to make money in Indian stock market? There is simply no reason for retail investors not to seize this fabulous opportunity of making money in stock futures at a very affordable subscription price. You are most likely to make triple the subscription amount in your very first trade. Don't believe me, ask my subscribers. I think every retail investor should avail of this money making opportunity provided by Stockezy.

Given below is the link to actual trading. Here I owe an explanation to my readers for putting them through some inconvenience in reading the comments for trade in HCL Tech. Actually the Opinion page was opened for trading Patni Computers. But then suddenly HCL Tech came down to our buy level and there was no time to open a new Opinion page for HCL Tech. So in order that my subscribers do not miss this opportunity I gave the buy call of HCL Tech in this already opened Patni page. Later this page was also used for trading Patni Computers August Futures after squaring off positon in HCL Tech. Anyway, here's the link :-

Stock Futures Trading Made Ezy - Ultra Tech Cement

Stock futures trading is rather a simple way of making money by retail investors. For continued success while tradng stock futures there are few things to be kept in mind;-

1. Do not enter into more than one position at a time, whatever be the lure.
2. Look for established clear momentum or strong swing.
3. Do not think of trading intra-day. If your target is achieved intra-day it is bonus, but do not have that as a compulsion.
4. Do not trade any news, good or bad.
5. Have an amount of Rs 1 lakh in your trading account to successfully trade stock futures.

I have been giving stock futures recommendations in http://www.stockezy.com/ as a Guru. On 19th July one of my subscribers first bought Ultra Tech July Futures at 825.25 as per my recommendation. On 21 July he exited at 846 with a profit of Rs 5250/-.

Again on 27th July my subscribers entered this scrip at 826 as per my recommendations and booked intra-day profit ranging from Rs 2500/- to Rs 6000/-.

On both the occasions we had entered trade in Ultra Tech purely on technical reasons. Ultra Tech was falling at rapid pace and even the general market was weak. But the termination point of second down wave as per Elliot Wave principle was calculated with help of Fibonacci retracement. This gave us our buy price from where technical bounce was sure to take place. And so it did!

We could have opted for higher target but fundamentally cement sector is weak in monsoons and general market also had a negative bias. So we took precautions and exited at a guaranteed  level, thereby eliminating all risk factors attached with holding for higher target. Yesterday the scrip reached high of 878, thereby achieving its resistance level of 30 day moving average. But by exiting early we still could manage to extract average of about Rs 8000/- from two trades in one scrip. That works out to 19.5% return on investment of Rs 41,000/-.
