Indian Nifty is the part and parcel of a Day Traders Chest of Tools.
Without looking at the Indian Nifty charts early morning, trading wouldn’t start.
Any me a full time trader and Nifty Options trader, cannot any day go without an Indian nifty chart.
I do an analysis of the Indian Nifty Trend using multiple indicators using the following:
- SGX Nifty Trend
- Global Markets Trend
- Technical Analysis
I usually trade in Nifty Options or Futures. To write Options or Futures, we need Nifty Futures Margin.
Due to the trending pattern, I trade Nifty Futures from 9:30 to 11:30 AM and 1:30 to 3:30 PM.
I like to scalp in between during the sideways market, which I teach in my options trading course.
Without further ado, let’s jump into learning everything about CNX Nifty.
