📈 Mastering Market Trends: Momentum Trading, EMA Strategies & The Power of Election Cycles
🛢️ How Crude Oil Price Trends Can Be Traded for Maximum Profits
Commodity markets, especially crude oil, follow seasonal trends. By analyzing historical patterns, traders can predict high-probability moves with minimal risk.
🔍 Historical Trend in Crude Oil Prices
📉 Downtrend at Year-End:
Every year, crude oil tends to decline in the last quarter (October–December).
Example: 2022, 2021, 2020, and even 2009 saw significant year-end corrections.
📈 Uptrend in Early Year:
Historically, January to March sees a strong rally, often 20% or more.
Example: 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014—all saw major price surges in the first quarter.
💡 Trading Strategy for Crude Oil
✔️ Wait for a breakout above the downward trendline. ✔️ Once crude oil closes above this line on a daily chart, enter a long position. ✔️ Buy a slightly out-of-the-money call option (400 points away) on MCX crude oil. ✔️ Risk: ₹5,000–₹6,000 per trade, but the potential reward is 10x or more.
👉 Expected Move: If crude oil follows historical patterns, this trade could double or triple capital with minimal risk.
📢 Key Learning:
Seasonal trends in commodities are powerful.
Using simple breakout strategies can generate massive profits.
📊 Momentum Trading Using Moving Averages: 5 EMA High & Low Strategy
While long-term trends are useful, momentum moves can provide quick profits. One of the best ways to capture these explosive moves is through the 5 EMA high and low strategy.
🔹 How Does the 5 EMA High-Low Strategy Work?
This strategy is based on Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) but with a twist: ✔️ Instead of using closing prices, we track highs and lows. ✔️ 5-period EMA of highs & lows acts as a trend filter. ✔️ Stocks closing above the 5-period high EMA = Strong uptrend. ✔️ Stocks closing below the 5-period low EMA = Strong downtrend.
📌 Example: SBI & REC in Momentum Mode
✅ REC Ltd:
Continues to close above the 5-period high EMA.
Indicates extreme bullish momentum and no signs of reversal.
Price can continue rising aggressively, with no resistance in sight.
✅ SBI (State Bank of India):
Posted at ₹610, predicted target: ₹645.
If SBI continues to close above the 5-period high EMA, it could reach all-time highs soon.
💡 How to Trade This Strategy? ✔️ Enter a stock when it closes above the 5-period high EMA. ✔️ Place a stop-loss below the 5-period low EMA. ✔️ Ride the momentum as long as the price stays above the EMA.
📢 Why This Works?
Trending stocks stay above 5 EMA high for long durations.
Reversal signals occur when price closes below 5 EMA low.
This strategy works in all market conditions—stocks, forex, commodities.
🔥 Real-World Application: Stocks in Momentum Mode
Several stocks currently exhibit strong momentum and are ideal for this strategy.
📊 Stocks Trading Above 5-Period High EMA
1️⃣ REC Ltd (Power Sector)
Currently trading above 5-period high EMA.
Could see an explosive rally.
2️⃣ SBI (Banking Sector)
Targeting ₹645+ soon.
3️⃣ BEL (Bharat Electronics Ltd)
Strong uptrend with no immediate resistance.
🔹 What to Expect?
As long as these stocks stay above their 5 EMA high, they are in momentum mode.
A close below the 5 EMA low would indicate a trend shift or slowdown.
🗳️ Election Cycles & Market Volatility: What You Must Know
Many traders ignore elections, but historical data shows that elections create massive opportunities.
📈 Historical Election Data: Nifty Performance
📢 Atal Bihari Vajpayee (1999-2004): ✔️ Won State Elections → Markets surged 40% in 5 months. ❌ Lost General Election → Markets crashed 32% in 4 weeks.
📢 Modi’s 2014 & 2019 Elections: ✔️ Markets surged pre-election on BJP’s stability promise. ✔️ Massive rallies in PSU & Infra stocks before results.
📌 2024 Prediction:
If Nifty hits 24,000 pre-election and BJP loses, it could crash to 15,000.
Mid-cap & small-cap stocks could fall 80%.
📢 Pre-Election Trading Strategy: Protect Your Portfolio
⚠️ One Month Before Elections: ✔️ Exit most stock positions to avoid massive volatility. ✔️ Stay in cash and wait for election results. ✔️ If BJP wins, re-enter the market 5% higher—it’s safer.
🔹 Why?
If BJP loses, markets will crash.
If BJP wins, markets will rise, but a 5% late entry is safer than an 80% crash.
📢 Final Thought: Markets don’t care about politics—they react to stability.
📌 Key Takeaways So Far
✅ Crude Oil Follows Seasonal Trends
Every January-March rally = 20%+ upside.
Breakout above trendline = Strong Buy Signal.
Use MCX options for high-reward trades.
✅ 5 EMA High-Low Strategy Works Across All Assets
Stocks staying above 5 EMA high = Momentum mode.
SBI, REC, BEL currently show strong signals.
Stop-loss below 5 EMA low protects downside.
✅ Elections Create Massive Market Moves
If BJP wins → Markets rally.
If BJP loses → Markets crash.
Stay in cash before elections, re-enter post-results.
