## Summary

This video presents five intraday trading strategies designed for short-term profit generation. The presenter explains each strategy with chart examples, risk management rules, and practical tips for implementation.

### Key Points

- **Intraday Trading Overview** [00:02] — Intraday trading involves opening and closing positions within the same day, avoiding overnight risk. Traders aim to profit from short-term price movements.
- **Bullish Flag Pattern** [01:38] — A trend-following strategy where a stock with strong upward momentum consolidates in a downward channel (flag) before breaking out higher. Entry on breakout above consolidation, stop-loss just below consolidation low, target 1% or more.
- **Moving Average Crossover** [06:11] — Uses 5 EMA (short) and 20 EMA (long). Bullish signal when 5 EMA crosses above 20 EMA; bearish when crosses below. Combine with other strategies for confirmation.
- **Previous Range Breakout (PRB)** [10:09] — Draw previous day's high and low. Trade long when price breaks above previous day's high, short when breaks below previous day's low. Stop-loss below breakout candle low, target 1.5-2x risk.
- **Opening Range Breakout (ORB)** [12:47] — Define first 15-30 minute high and low. Trade long on break above high, short on break below low. Avoid first 15 minutes and last 30 minutes of the session.
- **Narrow Range (NR7) Strategy** [14:31] — Identify stocks with narrowest 7-day range (NR7). These stocks are consolidating and likely to break out strongly. Use PRB rules on these stocks for entry.

### Conclusion

The five strategies—bullish flag, moving average crossover, PRB, ORB, and NR7—are simple yet effective for intraday trading. Consistent application with proper risk management can improve trading outcomes.

desirable forms of trading out there because what happens here you start the day in your account with your account and then uh throughout the course of the day you generate some profits hopefully and then by the end of the day your
trading is closed no matter if you have a profit or loss you do not carry on the trades for the next day you're not a long-term investor where there is a huge months or years worth of investing in the market no these are trades where in
a very short period of time your trade your profits are realized and back in your account and that is why people like it so much even though there is some risk attached to it people like the idea of gaining a lot of profits in a short
amount of time and yes we are going to learn some intraday trading strategies today so these are some bread and butter strategies which you can use in almost any stock or index across any category in the intraday space so let's get right
into the video where I discuss few of my favorite intraday strategies this is a favorite intraday strategies this is a welcome to Market watching all the videos of the stock market A2Z series by sharik here in this
everything you need to know about trading and investing as I've said earlier the basics of the stock market to fundamental analysis to even technical analysis in the market and you can consider this as another episode or
a continuation of that Series where we discuss few intraday trading strategies so first let's discuss Trend following strategies so these are strategies where market and we are trying to ride the trend along with the market so no
further complications here let's get into two intraday Trend following favorite strategies out there it is called as a bullish flag pattern trading strategy it is one of the most effective as well so a bullish flag as the name
suggest is a stock which is going in a very uptrending Direction and then gives a retracement at at the top right a strong uptrend and a retracement which comes down so when we're looking at the stock what does it mean it had a lot of
momentum and who what are we trying to do here we are trying to follow the momentum right the stock is riding on a lot of momentum but then it goes slow but after this the breakout which comes will be so strong that you'll be
surprised by it so to learn more about this bullish flag pattern let's go into the chart here this is IR CC's 5 minute Candlestick chart today so as you can see here a strong bullish momentum followed by a bearish consolidation
phase strong bullish momentum consolidation phase bullish momentum consolidation phase I hope you see the pattern here let's make this into a more uh presentable chart so that we can get right into the studies so yes as you can
see here in the chart all these zones are showing a similar pattern or a shape as that of a flag right and because it's in a bullish position we call it a bullish flag pattern that is it right and what are the rules here the rules
are very very simple the stock is moving up with a lot of momentum and then it moves down into a consolidation phase then it gives a breakout back up again again a strong bullish momentum consolidation back down coming back down
and a a strong even stronger breakout right so where do we have to buy where do we have to sell that is a question so every time the SL your trades SL is what I would like to uh first decide right and the SL should be just below this low
of the consolidation zone right I don't care if the stock kept going down down down like any of this uh it doesn't matter as long as it's moving down in a channel formation right so stock went up moved down keep an SL just below this
consolidation phase or where it started to uh bottom out so yes when this trade uh gives this breakout above this uh consolidation phase you have to take a taking a trade right when this consolidation is breaking on the upper
side let's say you take a trade here and this is your SL which is nearly a 4 point stop-loss and from here you can set a Target easy target of nearly 1 percentage even a 1 percentage Target is possible on a trending day in such a
stock right so it's all well and good when this bullish flag pattern plays out uh the odds are usually stacked in your favor it's one of my favorite trading strategies out there right so make sure you try it out and one easy method you
don't have to go about seeing every single chart which is forming this bull flag pattern all you have to do is you can go to Google or you can come to screener.in and you can just search this daily bull flag screener right and
you'll be getting the uh all the stocks which are showing this pattern right now in the market so that's a very easy way to get into the stock do not forget that the SL should be somewhere just below that consolidation phase so let's say
the uh uh low of that consolidation was nearly 850 rupees or 800 rupees in the case of IRCTC try to keep it 50 P or even 60 p just below it right just so that your stop- loss is not triggered due to unforeseen circumstances or even
SL hunting right so keep it a bit far uh away from round numbers that is what I that you have a risk reward of at least one is to one that means if you have a SEL a stop- loss of 1 percentage try to keep a reward or a target of at least 1
percentage as well all the more Reon if you have a target of 1.2 to 1.5% right uh usually what I do is I set a stop- loss of around5 to6 percentage and I set a target of 1 percentage for my trades in this bullish flag pattern here and
this works beautifully across any index or stock that you try the more momentum trading setup will be so please make sure you get into this and use the screener as well let me know your thoughts in the comments down below
again the next strategy is a very easy simple moving average crossover strategy and because this also works in the model of price action you can use the similar trade or not so let's get right into the strategy a moving average crossover
strategy is nothing but where you have a a shorter moving average running a line running in your chart and then longer moving average running and whenever the shorter one is crossing the longer one on the upper side it gives a bullish
trade and whenever the shorter moving average is Crossing the longer moving average from the top down below then it's a bearish trade indication so again very simple example uh we'll get into the chart and show you here so the
shorter EMA here that which you should be using in an intraday trading setup is a 5 EMA right a 5 EMA we have selected National aluminium as a stock here and then the longer exponential moving average or the EMA that you have to see
average or the EMA that you have to see or set is a 20 EMA here so whenever the shorter ma which is going to be the steeper one right because exponential moving average it gives more weightage to the recent moves and when it's five
EMA the moves will be much more sharper and steeper right so when we looking at the EMA the steeper one or the bigger volatile one is a 5 EMA and when that crosses this uh 20 EMA from the downside it's giving a bullish indication so as
you can see here if you can combine it with few other strategies that we are going to learn later like the opening range uh breakout strategy you'll be able to get a very good trade here right so let's consider that this candle is
going to be your breakout candle so it's a good uh resistance Zone as well it had given support multiple times earlier as you can see here and when the stock is giving a breakout right you can plan a good trade from this zone so let's see
again uh let's set the stop-loss and Target as well so the stop loss should be set uh as I said earlier it should be set somewhere around point 5 to 1 per right so here let's go ahead set the stop- loss yeah so here again5 to 6% is
where the low of the previous candle is so I think that's a decent stop- loss in going up a 1% to 1.2% Target would be really ideal in the stock and as you can see here the stock even went on to Rally much more than
these strategies you get some good scalping opportunities as well that means you can get in and out of stocks in a really quick and fast manner so make sure that you set your targets and stop- loss accordingly and the time
between these trades might vary so do keep your mind open for that and make sure that you always use something like volume or any of your favorite in confirmation for all of these trades so what I usually do is I just look at the
price action then I look at the support nearby support and resistance levels as well then I decide whether to take the trade or not so the next few strategy these are range breakout strategies so again the concept is really simple let's
say the stock is trading within a set range right so the market is moving within a set range and when the range is giving a breakout there is a high chance for that breakout to continue and why does this happen I'll give you the
simple concept to think about it when the market is moving between a range there are people who are trying to catch the bottom and the top of that range right so when people are trying to catch the bottom and top let's say at the
bottom your trying to catch the bottom of a trade or of a parallel channel right here so when you do that you set an SL just below that range so that if the M Market in fact Falls below that range against your trade you can uh hit
your SL and then you can get out so you're are hoping that market will continue trading between this range and all is well in your life but when the market actually gives that fall just below the low there are lot of stop-loss
orders waiting for that movement right there and all of them get triggered at the same time and the market gives or the stock gives a good downward momentum this is what happens in range breakout trading so I'll introduce few range
breakout strategies here as well so the first concept again let's go through the concept once again you define a range and Beyond this range when there is a breakout or a breakdown you take a trade if it's on the upper side you take a
bullish trade if it's on the Lower Side you take a bearish trade so first let's look into a previous range breakout trading strategy this basically means that you draw the high and low of the previous daily candle in whatever stock
that you're tracking so once you do that you'll understand hey this is an important resistance zone for the stock and this is an important support zone for the stock and as easy as whenever this stock is crossing one of these
lines intraday you take a position which goes along with the trend so if it's breaking on the upper side you go with a bullish trade if it's breaking on the lower side you go with a bearish trade so yes once again let's go into the
chart to see an example so let's take the case of hindalco Industries this is a favorite uh aluminium stock as you might know and here we have what you have to do uh when starting of the day or when uh picking the stockers you have
to draw the high and low of the previous day we going after a previous range breakout after all so once you do that you get to understand how the stock is playing out between the support and resistance levels right and when this
resistance level on the upper side is broken as it was broken today right this is Monday's chart right here around 9:40 a.m. it was broken you can Surly take a good strong bet in the bullish side on the stock so again when you're entering
the stock intraday try to keep an SL at least below the previous candle's low right so if this was a breakout candle if this is where you're entering try to set at least an SL just below the previous candle so that will come out to
near 4% and you can set a target of 1.5 is to 1 which means uh 6% as your target or 2 is to 1 as you can see here which is nearly 8% and because of the earlier
reason which I said there are lot of stop-loss orders waiting around this range breakout Zone the probability of profits for strategies like this are good if you select the correct time frame and the volumes building here are
just confirmation going through ahead with all the trading candles the volumes have been building and if we ignore the first few candles it's a really good trading setup so again uh I would give one suggestion here try to avoid the
first 15 minutes whenever you're doing this range breakout trading strategies so that it helps you not get trapped in uh initial 915 a volatility and do not try to go for the last 30 minutes of the day as well so the next strategy which I
want to discuss is called as a opening range breakout strategy so what you have to do here is that you have to define the opening range for a stock so you have to look at the first 15 to 30 minutes of a Stock's movement and you
have to select the high and low of that stock and from there whenever the high trade whenever the low is broken you have to take a bearish trade so let's Industries right here so first you have to mark the first of high and the low of
the first 15 minutes in the stock so again this is where the day starts in Reliance here and when we're looking at the high and the low this is where the regions are marked and whenever you're going to take a position make sure again
you follow the uh risk management principles that we have learned always and you look at the stop loss and the target for that trade so we're getting a good stop- loss for this stock which is nearly .5% and when you're looking at a
healthy Target of nearly 8% also the stock could give you good returns right and this was also good trading setup in the stock again I'm giving all these examples uh these are tried and tested
examples so that you can go back into the charts you can do some back testing of your own and you can select which stocks and indexes you would like to try stocks and indexes you would like to try this upon and as always do not risk much
High capital of yours do it always with a very small amount and make sure that you use a position sizing calculator very very important nobody will teach you any of this right make sure you use a position sizing calculator which have
linked here in the description as well as in the pin comment I'll also add it here in the I Button as well go watch the video and make sure you use that and the last strategy which I want to discuss is a mix of the previous range
breakout strategy as well as another Concept in the market so whenever the stock is consolidating within a narrow range there is always a possibility that whenever there comes a breakout the breakout will be strong right the stock
will be very much in a consolidating phase it'll be accumulating Distributing any of it whenever there's a breakout or a breakdown the much more consolidation that it had the more power it would have for the breakout or breakdown right this
understand now there's a concept which is known as a narrow range trading strategy which I also want to discuss here now the benefit of this strategy is that you'll get to know the previous day or the day morning of the day itself
which stocks which you are supposed to give your ey upon based on the prv have come to Google you have to come to Google you have to come and search for nr7 uh screener and you'll be getting all the names of the stocks which are
going to be an nr7 stock for the next day right for the next day and once you do this we'll be getting a set of stocks and out of only out of these stocks you have to go and watch out for the uh logic which we said earlier a previous
range breakout so narrow range trading strategy again if you're selecting an nr7 strategy it basically means that for the last 7 days the stock has been in a really good uh consolidation phase if you want to learn more about it I'll
give here the description what is exactly narrow range uh NR seven right and every day the stock is consolidating more and more it's not giving a breakout more and more consolidation when it
breaks it will break really good that is how this nr7 trading strategy works right and again you have to go Mark the previous day's High and the low and whenever the previous day's high is broken you can take a bullish trade
there previous day's low is broken you can take a bearish trade there just like the prb strategy which we've done so here all the difference here is that that you already know at the beginning of the day which prb stocks to focus on
right and these are some easy and simple intraday trading strategies some of the most simple but the most effective and my favorite out there so make sure you try out every single one of them and make sure you use a position sizing
calculator and you do not risk much of your Capital please do not get your Capital wiped out please go and check out this video so yes this is a it signing off see you again on the next video bye-bye
