Intraday Trading with Just One Chart and Two Rules

Why Simplicity Wins in Intraday Trading

Most beginners jump into intraday trading with dozens of indicators, complex strategies, and 10 tabs open. The result? Overwhelm and losses. But what if we told you that a simple system using just one chart and two rules could change your game?

Welcome to the “One Chart Two Rule” method — a beginner-friendly, high-probability setup that works incredibly well in Indian markets, especially on volatile stocks and options.

The Setup: Just One Chart

We use a clean 15-minute candlestick chart — no indicators, no clutter, just pure price action. This chart helps you capture market momentum without noise.

Why 15-minute? It offers the perfect balance — not too fast like 1-min charts, and not too slow like hourly ones. Ideal for capturing breakout moves.

Rule #1: Identify a Directional Bias (Trend + Breakout)

• Wait for the first 1 hour of the market to complete.
• Draw a high and low for the 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM range.
• Once a candle closes above the high → You look for BUY setups only.
• If it closes below the low → You look for SELL setups only.

This simple rule filters 80% of fake trades. You’re now trading with momentum, not guessing it.

Rule #2: Entry Confirmation

Now that you have a directional bias, you wait for a strong bullish or bearish candle to break the intraday range.

Criteria for entry:

• Candle should close outside the range
• Body should be at least 60% of the total candle (indicating strength)
• Enter at candle close or minor pullback (1–2 candles max)

Stop Loss: Just below/above the breakout candle.

Bonus Tips for Better Results

• Target volatile stocks or trending indices like Nifty, Bank Nifty
• Use this only on trending days — avoid sideways markets
• Risk per trade should not exceed 1–2% of your capital
