For a stock to move up, demand should over-weigh supply and vice-versa. Whenever we see a big move in price,\u00a0investors end up chasing the stock thinking that price is going to run away to the moon if this buying opportunity is missed! And what typically happens thereafter is that the stock falls immediately and investors are left pondering &#8221; Why is it that whatever I buy falls&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>What typically happens is that pro-money (generic term for \u00a0operators \/ FIIs\/ hedge funds and anyone else having enough money power) use this instinct of traders \/ investors by throwing a bait in the form of a breakout. After the breakout, price retraces or gets into a sideways mode testing the patience of breakout traders. Finally when the breakout traders throw in the towel, the next move starts. And, breakout traders jump in again and the cycle continues !!<\/p>\n<div class=\"blog-highlight\" style=\"clear: both;\">Invest Now<span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-weight: bold;\"> FundsIndia Equity Account<\/span><\/div>\n<p>Let us look a few examples. The chart below is that of Bata India. The chart has been rolled back to the breakout date &#8211; October 1, 2014.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Bata1.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6393\" alt=\"Bata1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Bata1.gif\" width=\"1553\" height=\"719\" \/><\/a>\n<p>It is apparent from the above chart that the price broke out of a nice consolidation and as text books would say, the breakout was backed by increased volumes as well. <strong>Logical conclusion: Buy now, lest you miss on the move.\u00a0<\/strong>Let us see what happens to price after the breakout. Look at the updated chart of Bata India featured below.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Bata-2.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6394\" alt=\"Bata 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Bata-2.gif\" width=\"1562\" height=\"724\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Price retraces all the way back to the origin of the move. This concept plays out across all time frames and investors need to desist chasing price. One more example in 5 minute chart of Amtek Auto.\u00a0<span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">The price action highlighted in the chart relates to yesterday (October 30, 2014). <\/span><\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Amtek.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-6395\" alt=\"Amtek\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fundsindia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Amtek.gif\" width=\"1558\" height=\"717\" \/><\/a>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">The point we are driving home is price fluctuates and there is no need to chase price. Wait for a pull back and price will often offer a nice entry opportunity.\u00a0<\/span>There would always be instances where breakouts are genuine and price runs away without offering a secondary opportunity but, those are minority instances.<\/p>\n<p>For those academically oriented, take a look at Bharat Forge, TVS Motors, Jain Irrigation, Arvind.
