Another way to take this trade is to focus only on Indices where the gap down risks is relatively lower as indices are derived from a bunch of stocks.
This is the setup we are looking out for
- RSI Triple Divergence to be seen mainly post a good 10% correction from the peaks. Larger the correction better.
- The 3rd bottom does not stay for a long time and hardly gives you a chance to jump in.
- Acting either on 2nd bottom or post the confirmation of Triple Divergence is an equally good strategy.
- Triple Divergence is a great time to Invest as well as Trade.
- Ideally it should work similarly on finding Tops but it does not as Topping out is a slow process. Panics happen faster.
- Triple Divergence is not seen often and one has to wait.
- The tough part is not to spot but to be able to act contrarian and digest the short term pain after entry.
- The only time it did not work was in October 2008.
Strategy
- Buy in Parts below 2nd bottom in a range of 1-2%. Keep a stoploss of 3% from entry price.
- Buy on candlestick reversal or 3 day high after the triple divergence.Stoploss of the candle lows.
