4 Strategies to Trade
Nifty 500 Like a Pro
Swing trading is about patience and precision — catching high-probability moves over 2–10 days. This guide breaks down four battle-tested setups with an interactive scanner that finds live trade ideas from the Nifty 500 universe.
Strategies That Work
Each strategy exploits a different market behaviour. Master all four and you'll have an edge in trending, ranging, and volatile markets.
Trend Pullback
Identify a stock in a clear uptrend — price above its 20 EMA and 50 EMA. Wait for a minor pullback to the 20 EMA or a horizontal support level. Enter when bullish momentum resumes (engulfing candle, RSI hook up from 40–50).
BUY setups · Trending marketVolume Breakout
Wait for a stock to break through a well-established resistance (or support for shorts) with volume at least 1.5× its 20-day average. Enter only after a confirmed daily close above the level — avoid false breakouts.
BUY & SELL · MomentumMean Reversion
Stocks that are deeply oversold (RSI <25) or overbought (RSI >75) tend to snap back. Wait for exhaustion signs — doji, volume capitulation — then enter expecting a move back to the 20-day moving average.
Counter-trend · Ranging marketLiquidity Sweep
Institutions hunt stop-losses around key levels. Price briefly pierces support/resistance, triggers stops, then reverses sharply back inside the range. Enter on the reversal close — a powerful, low-risk setup when timed correctly.
Stop hunt · Institutional playRules Before Entries
No strategy works without discipline. These two rules protect your capital above everything else.
THE 2% RULE
Never risk more than 2% of your total account equity on any single trade. On a ₹5 lakh account, maximum loss per trade = ₹10,000. Position size = ₹10,000 ÷ (Entry − Stop).
PRE-PLANNED EXITS
Define your stop-loss and profit target before you enter. Never move your stop deeper after entry. Book partial profits at 1R, let the rest ride to 2R–3R with a trailing stop.
MINIMUM R:R RATIO
Only take trades where the reward is at least 2× the risk. If your stop is ₹20 away, your target must be ₹40+ away. Skip anything below 2:1 — the math doesn't work long-term.
TREND CONFIRMATION
Always trade in the direction of the broader Nifty 500 trend. Avoid counter-trend mean reversion trades when the index is in a strong directional move. Confluence wins.
