•
Please execute the recommendation within the prescribed range provided in the report
•
Once the recommendation is executed, it is advisable to keep strict stop loss as provided in the report on closing

We adapt a trading strategy of booking 50% profit when the position is in profit by 4-6% and trail stoploss on
remaining position to the entry point
•
In recommendations where it is advised to buy on declines, if the target price is hit before activation of the call in
prescribed range then the recommendation is considered not initiated
•
The recommendations are valid only for the week and are to be squared off by the end of the week. In case we
intend to carry forward the position, it will be communicated through separate mail
.
Trading Portfolio allocation
•
It is recommended to spread out the trading corpus in a proportionate manner between the various technical
research products
•
Please avoid allocating the entire trading corpus to a single stock or a single product segment
•
Within each product segment it is advisable to allocate equal amount to each recommendation
•
For example: The ‘Daily Calls’ product carries 3 to 4 intraday recommendations. It is advisable to allocate equal
amount to each recommendation

Candlesticks Glossary:
Candlestick patterns describe the market sentiment for the specified period. Some of the formations suggest reversal of sentiment (trend) and, therefore,
are important for a chart reader. By themselves, the patterns do not carry any price target but only an indication of change in market behaviour. More
importance needs to be given to the placement of the pattern within larger trend
Morning Star: Potential bottom reversal pattern made of three candle lines. The first sizeable black candle reflects a market in which the bears are in
complete charge. The next candle line--the small real body--shows a slight diminution of the bearish force. The white candle that makes up the last part of
the morning star visually displays the bulls are gaining the upper hand. Lowest low amongst three candles becomes technical support
Bullish Engulfing Line: A potential bottom reversal pattern. This pattern typically appears at the culmination of a decline or downtrend. The market falls,
and a black candle forms (ideally a small black candle). Next, a white real body wraps around the prior session’s black body. Low of the pattern becomes
short term support for prices
Piercing Line: Potential bottom reversal pattern. A black body forms in the downtrend. The market continues moving south on the next session’s open
but that session culminates in a white real body that closes (e.g. pierces) than half way or more into the prior black body. Lowest low between two
candles is referred to as technical support for prices
Hammer: A candlestick line which, during a downtrend, has a very long lower shadow and small real body (black or white) at the top end of the session’s
range. There should be no, or a very small, upper shadow. Pattern suggests buying support during declines and needs confirmation in terms of
sustainability of prices above head of the Hammer in following session
Evening Star: Potential Top reversal pattern made of three candle lines. Comparable with a traffic signal. First white candle reflects a market in bullish
trend. The next candle line--the small real body—warns waning momentum. The black candle that completes the evening star visually exhibits that prior
up trend has stopped or reversed
Bearish Engulfing Line: Potential top reversal signal. This two candlestick pattern emerges during a rally. A black candle real body wraps around a white
real body (classically a small white candle) Highest high between two candles becomes resistance level for prices for future reference
Dark Cloud cover: A dark cloud cover forms a top reversal pattern. The first session should be a strong, white real body. The second session’s price
opens over the prior session’s high (or above the prior session’s close). By the end of the second session, it closes near the low of the session and should
fall well into the prior session’s white body. Pattern suggests that market has a poor chance of rising immediately
Shooting Star: A single candlestick line during a rally in which there is a small real body (white or black) at the bottom end of the session's range and a
very long upper shadow. The candle line should also have little or no lower shadow. Pattern suggest the trouble for prices overhead
