    Shabbir one question is about the buying quantity when one decides to buy a stock. Should we buy all the quantity at one go?
    Or other approach is to start accumulating the stock & increase it as it starts rising up?
    In the 2nd approach one can get out of the stock with less loss if stoploss gets hit i.e stock breaks down from good support or the breakout fails.

    There is no general rule and it all depends on 3 things which is the pattern being formed, return on investment, risk.

    Let us take some stock and pattern and discuss on actual as to what I would do. Pick a stock and pattern along with day/time and we can discuss with actual figured.
