Characteristics of a great #stock:

• High relative strength (99 IBD)
• Strong growth (>50% sales yoy)
• Strong uptrend (>70% from 52w low)
• Young (<5 years)
• Best sector (A+ IBD)
• High accumulation (A+ IBD)
• Low number of shares (<20 million)
• Interesting story

I personally don't buy any breakout! It must fulfill some criteria:

– Volatility contraction closely to the breakout line
– Volume dry up
– Sound chart pattern
– Story stock or great fundamentals

Pay attention to the details!
Don't blindly buy every outbreak.

5 rules that can secure your #trading life:

1) Cut losses at 7%
2) Risk not more than 1% of your capital
3) Never ever average down
4) Trade small in biotech stocks
5) Limit your overall portfolio risk

What else?

Chasing extended #stocks is often not rewarded! What's extended?

1) >70% above EMA 200
2) Up 3 days in a row
3) >3 pullbacks on the EMA 21
4) >5% above trading base without pullback
5) >10% in one day It's better to wait for a consolidation before you enter.

#Trading tip: If stock is up >3 days in a row before a breakout, be cautious. Often it pulls back and you get a better risk-reward-ratio after the pullback.

5 ways to find a stop loss level:

1) Fixed percentage: 5-10% is enough
2) Breakout level: 3-5% below the breakout level.
3) Moving averages: Below the 10, 20 or 50 MA.
4) Trendline: A multiple tested trendline is a good place.
5) Average True Range: Use 2 or 3 times the ATR.

Insiders and operators can hide everything from you except VOLUME,
Yes, Volume is the most useful indicator in Price Action Trading.

A thread🧵 on Volume Analysis and Interpretation -

Price increases + Volume increases = Bulls have strength

Price decreases + Volume increases = Bears have strength

Price increases + volume decreases = Bulls don't have strength, won't sustain higher levels

Price decreases + volume decreases = Bears don't have strength.

Points to Remember -
1. Big breakouts start with big VOLUME always.

The Higher the volume + Higher the range = the bigger will be the move.

2. When the stock consolidates and rejects from the higher price, volume is always low.
And when it gives the decisive breakouts, The Volume is stronger than the whole consolidation..
See the attached chart.

3. When the trend changes from Positive to Negative, Or Negative to Positive, It is always supported by strong Volume..
See the volume when the stock was declining and going in a downtrend from the uptrend in the pic below.

#Breakout Trade!

A Breakout trade is usually a trade where the price breaks a strong resistance/supply level after consolidation. These r considered strong stocks.

To add conviction to our trade we check volumes, RSI, RS etc. for confirmation.

Let's understand with e.g :-

2/n

#ADANIPOWER

It has broken strong resistance level of 135 with strong volumes on daily chart with RSI crossing 70, Prev. swing high which adds more conviction in the trade & makes it a high probability trade.

Suggestion - Add 50% qty on breakout & rest 50% wait for retest.

3/n

Breakout Retest #Trade

A Breakout retest trade is usually a trade where the price breaks a strong resistance with volumes, strong RSI & then retest the same price level with low volumes & RSI not breaking 55 on D which signifies a true retest.

Let's understand with e.g:-

4/n

#timken INDIA

It broke the strong resistance level of 2130 with strong volumes, RSI after long consolidation. After breakout it has retested it with low volumes & RSI abv 55.

Suggestion - Good risk reward here but 1 should keep S.L at breakout candle low i.e 2084 on clbs.
