FAQs and OTHER TIPS

1. What is VWAP indicator? How to plot it?

Vwap is an intraday indicator which works best on 15 minutes. This

indicator is available on all major trading/charting platforms. Simply go to
“Studies/Indicators” section and select “vwap”

2. How to avoid fake breakout?

Fake breakout cannot be totally avoided. However, those who want to cut
down on the risk of fake breakout, can avoid taking trades on first vwap.
They can take a vwap pullback trade which I will elaborate and document
later

3. Vwap Strategy hitting SL during range-bound days

Agreed that strategy works less on range bound days but whether a day is
range bound or not that we get to know only during the day. No way to
identify beforehand if a day will be range bound. One can only predict.
However, one can avoid taking trades the day after a trending day,
assuming it is usually a range bound day

4. What is the success ratio of this strategy?

In past, this strategy has given more than 60% results and with 1:1 Risk
reward ratio, it is excellent. You can do your math.
5. On what instruments does this strategy work ?

This strategy works on all instruments, i.e., all stocks, indexes, commodities,
currencies, etc. However, it works best on high beta stocks, Nifty Future,
Bank Nifty Future and Crude.

6. What is the meaning of high beta stocks?

High beta stocks are fast moving stocks. Stocks that move equally or faster
than the movement of index are called high beta stocks. Their beta is
usually equal to or greater than 1.

Few examples are : Axis Bank, Adani Ent, DLF, Rel Infra, Tata Steel, Tata
Motor, Idea, SBI, Canara Bank, IBHF, Just Dial, LTHF, Jubilant Food,
Hindalco, Bajaj Finance, Reliance, etc.

7. Can any other indicator be used along with vwap indicator?

Vwap indicator takes into consideration volume, time and price. Hence, no
other indicator is required. We don't use any other indicator except vwap.
If you want to use, you can use on your own discretion and comfort.

8. Whether to take all the trades generated as per vwap?

It purely depends on your risk apetite. Probability of target or SL being hit

doesn’t change. We take all trades that are generated.
9. Can a lower time frame be used?

There is no strict rule against using a lower time fram. if you are
comfortable, you can try on a lower time frame like 5 minutes or 3 minutes
as well. Strategy says 15 minutes so if you deviate, do your back-testing and
then deviate.

10.How many lots should I trade in while using this strategy?

It is ideal to risk 1-2% capital in your trade. So if your capital is say 1 lac,
max risk should be 2000. Hence you can trade in one lot of NF (25*75=
1875)
