📈 Mastering Market Trends: Election Impact, Trend-Based Trading & The "Peach Setup"
🗳️ How Elections Impact Stock Markets: A Historical Perspective
Many traders believe that markets move independently of elections, but historical data suggests otherwise. Elections, especially state elections before a general election, act as semi-finals for the market, influencing investor sentiment significantly.
🔍 Case Study: Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s Election Cycle (1999-2004)
When Atal Bihari Vajpayee won Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh state elections, the market rallied 40% in just 5 months (September to January).
However, when he lost the general election, the market crashed by 32% within four weeks.
📌 Key Takeaways: ✅ If a stable government wins, markets rally. ❌ If there’s political uncertainty, markets decline sharply.
📉 What Could Happen in 2024?
If history repeats itself:
If Nifty rallies to 24,000 before elections and Modi loses, it could drop to 15,000 rapidly.
Mid-cap and small-cap stocks could fall by 80% in a worst-case scenario.
💡 Trading Strategy Before Elections: 🔹 Exit most stock positions one month before elections to avoid sudden downturns. 🔹 If BJP wins, buying 5% higher is acceptable. 🔹 If BJP loses, mid-cap & small-cap stocks will crash with no exit opportunity.
⚠️ Remember: The market is unpredictable—always have an exit plan.
🔥 Trend-Based Trading: Using Moving Averages for High-Probability Trades
Now, let’s shift focus back to trading strategies.
One of the best ways to identify high-probability trades is to follow strong trends using moving averages.
📊 Dixon Technologies: A Case Study in Trend Following
Dixon has a strong uptrend and is expected to hit ₹10,000-₹12,000.
Flag breakout patterns have consistently worked for Dixon.
Each breakout added 400-500 points to the stock’s price.
👉 How to Trade This Move? 1️⃣ Enter Dixon on a flag breakout. 2️⃣ Place stop-loss below the previous consolidation range. 3️⃣ Book profits after a strong rally.
📢 Key Learning:
Strong uptrends give multiple buying opportunities at 50 or 100 EMA.
If stop-loss hits at 50 EMA, re-enter at 100 EMA.
Always check the trend alignment before entering.
🛠️ How to Identify a "Well-Aligned" Trend?
A strong trend occurs when: ✅ Shorter moving averages (5, 8, 13, 20) stay above longer moving averages (50, 100, 200). ✅ Stock consistently finds support at 50 or 100 EMA before moving higher.
🔍 Example: Aurobindo Pharma & RBL Bank
Aurobindo Pharma:
The stock found support near 50 EMA and rebounded.
Expected to reach ₹950-₹960 levels for another buy opportunity.
RBL Bank:
Well-aligned moving averages indicated a strong uptrend.
Stock bounced from 50 EMA to 1000.
🔹 Crucial Rule:
In a trending stock, buy near 50 or 100 EMA.
In a downtrend, these same levels act as resistance.
🍑 The "Peach Setup": A Rare But Powerful Trading Strategy
One of the lesser-known but highly effective setups is the "Peach Setup." This strategy works across: ✔️ Stocks ✔️ Commodities ✔️ Shorter time frames (Intraday & Swing Trading)
📉 Silver Trading Using the "Peach Setup" (15-Minute Chart)
💡 How It Works: 1️⃣ Identify a trending asset. 2️⃣ Wait for a pullback to a key moving average. 3️⃣ Enter when the price bounces off that level. 4️⃣ Place a stop-loss below the moving average.
🔍 Example: Silver Shorting Opportunity
Multiple short trades at ₹75,600, yielding consistent 500+ point profits.
Pattern repeated several times, confirming the strategy's reliability.
📢 Why This Setup Works?
It capitalizes on market momentum instead of fighting it.
Works across all timeframes, from intraday to positional trades.
Provides high-probability entry points with low risk.
📌 Key Takeaways So Far
✅ Election Volatility is Real:
Markets react strongly to elections.
Reduce exposure before elections & re-enter after results.
✅ Trend-Based Trading is Powerful:
Follow well-aligned moving averages for high-probability trades.
Use 50 & 100 EMA as dynamic support & resistance.
