Factors to consider when Analyzing individual Stocks:
1️⃣ Market Structure (Stage analysis, TLs, S&R, Elliot Wave)
2️⃣ Patterns & Volume
3️⃣ Candlesticks
4️⃣ Indicators (e.g RSI, ADX, Bollinger Bands, etc.)
5️⃣ Interplay of Timeframes
6️⃣ Fundamental catalysts
RT if Thread is USEFUL
Before Entry into a Trade, consider:
1️⃣Where is Price coming from? (Prior Trend/Sideways)
2️⃣Where does it have potential to go? (Target levels)
3️⃣Where does your view get negated? (Stop Loss)
4️⃣What's the Risk/Reward ratio? (Do Position Sizing)
5️⃣Long Thesis vs. Short Thesis?
Classify your Trading setups:
1⃣ Positional
2⃣ Trend following
3⃣ Momentum/ Trend continuation
4⃣ Range bound
5⃣ Bottom Picking
Actions that have Hurt my Trading the most:
1) Not using a Stop & Not sticking to my Trailing Stop (especially in a winning position)
2) Pyramiding in winning positions at the wrong time (emotional attachment & lack of new ideas)
3) Acting on Tips (not backed by own analysis)
1⃣ How you Trade is a complete reflection of your Personality. To be a better Trader, Be Honest with yourself first !
2⃣ One must survive the Bad days & those Drawdowns, to be able see the Light of the Best Days !
