How this system works
This system works on the principle of volatility. Now you might be thinking what this volatility is and how it can help us in intraday trading. Volatility means "The relative rate at which the price of a security moves up and down". Based on volatility, we can find the possible price fluctuation of any scrip. Lets say the volatility of RELIANCE is 2.33 at any point of time. Now, i want to know where will the price be moving based on volatility. To know this i take into account the closing price of that particular scrip for the previous day. So lets say i have closing price at 1000 and volatility is 2.33. So possibility of Reliance fluctuating is 2.33% of 1000 = 23.3. Now main question arises is how to trade based on this values. For trading, we note down the LTP of RELIANCE on next day. We generally take into account the LTP price of RELIANCE around 1-2 hrs after market open. Say , i have noted down the LTP as 1008. And the high and low of RELIANCE for today is 1015 and 1002. I take the midpoint of 1015 and 1008. I get 1011.5. My LTP is below midPoint. So, the chances of price of RELIANCE going in downward direction is more. But, how do we decide the target?. Since LTP is below midpoint, and our fluctuating price is 23.3, the possible downside is 2015 - 23.3 = 1991.7. Based on this values, we go short below midpoint(5011.5) for a target of 4991.7 and stoploss as high of day(5015). There are few more complex calculation involved in above calculator but underlying idea remains that mentioned here.
