What Is Your Most Reliable Trading Setup?

Every trader develops their own trading setup based on experience, discipline, and comfort with risk.

Some prefer intraday strategies, while others focus on swing, positional, options, or long-term trades. What works well for one person may not suit another.

There is no single “perfect” strategy in the market. However, by sharing practical experiences, the community can learn different approaches and improve decision-making.

Please share the details of your most reliable setup:

  1. Your trading style (intraday / swing / options / positional / long term)

  2. Entry condition (for example: breakout, pullback, indicator-based, price action, etc.)

  3. Stop-loss rule (fixed points, percentage, technical level, trailing SL, etc.)

  4. Exit or target method (risk-reward, trailing, partial booking, time-based exit, etc.)

  5. Any additional rule you follow (time filter, news filter, max trades per day, etc.)

Sharing both successes and challenges is equally valuable and helps everyone grow as traders.

What I believe for trading is to enter and exit based on set conditions and not emotions.

I trade on 5 and 15 minutes time frame on major index futures chart

One can do futures or trade ATM options as per their capital

I use FBB indicator with 200 length and buy once price reaches to below 50% on lower band for target of the middle line and above.

And sell above 50% band on upper band for target to middle line and below.

Risk reward should always be more than 1:2

SL should be the lower /upper band price

Idea is very simple mean price correction and price trends
