The Intraday Open High Low Strategy is highly popular for its remarkable accuracy. This strategy generates a Buy signal when a stock or index opens at the same value as its daily low and a Sell signal when it opens at the same value as its daily high. It consistently achieves an 80% success rate in various market conditions, especially when applied to liquid stocks and commodities.
- We record the “High” and “Low” prices on the sheet precisely at 9:45 AM, ensuring that the BUY/SHORT signal remains valid throughout the day, even if high/low prices change later.
- We recently updated the list of stocks to include all NSE-traded stocks in the F&O segment.
- For the buy signal, set the trigger price at 0.5% above the LOW, and for the sell signal, set it at 0.5% below the HIGH.
- Calculate the stop loss at 1% based on the trigger price.
- If the trigger price isn’t reached, the profit/loss column will display a corresponding message.
