Page 4: 19th February 2014 - Long Natural Gas

• MCX Energy Index has made a breakout from its monthly and weekly pivots , The index has retraced 50% of the fall we witnessed since the peak of last year

• MCX Natural Gas current condition is volatile up • This price action reminds me of G-Man’s Pullback trade and levels

which comes for potential resistance in the uptrend are 395, however I have identified short term resistances 345-362 where supply “might” come in which also happens to be target 1 if G-Man was trading it, Prices made a new high of 371.2 today

• Daily 14 day volatility is greater than 20 day volatility average & 250 day weighted average which means the current environment has above average volatility and with ADX above 25

Review

• I did a good job in reading the tape. • I identified 368 as the level where we had a seller with a held offer • I waited for the seller to lift in order to enter where demand would

have been confirmed • We were near support and I could have started the position at

366.5 or 366.8 with a stop below 366.2 and I could have added to the position when the held offer was lifted

• I adapted my trade plan , I exited at limit up instead of my trailing stop which in hindsight looks quite good as it was HOD

• I was calm in executing this trade • I CAN IMPROVE EVERYDAY - Observe , React , Adapt & Evolve
