NSE historical data download using CasperJS / NSE data scraping

I wrote a quick dirty casperJS script to download historical data from NSE. NSE FTP services are not affordable for individual traders. Also I need only EOD data hence decided to scrape the required data from NSE.

Feel free to modify the script as per your needs. Its quite simple to use and understand. If you need any modifications and are unable to modify the script yourself then do let me know. I will try and help out.

You can clone/fork from : https://github.com/virenpc/nsehistoricaldata.git

By default it downloads 3 months data for all NSE stocks. I suggest modifying the script and remove scrips names which are not required.

Natural Gas 5 min:

Having trouble to hold on to a wining position. And I know that and still not able to overcome. I guess entering with multiple lots and exiting one early and holding to another one will help to calm the nerves. Only if I had enough capital to be able to that.

Must try and not allow the screen to mesmerize me. Its high time now.

DLF:

DLF was spotted for long. It went wrong. Should have hit SL in normal circumstances. But due to the nerves I bailed out early and saved the loss. Entire market fell and hence DLF also came down along. Was looking good to go up.

Tata Motors:

Ruined the entire day with this trade. Was nicely spotted. But I exited at random SL. Stop loss should have been days high + filter. It never crossed the HOD. Did double top and look at the way it fell from there on. Pretty much similar to Natural gas chart. Helped to take that trade. Could have made a lot more if I could hold on.

Commodity trade 12 FEB.

Crude oil saves the day. Below is the chart 5 min time frame:

Did 2 lots made 1500 bucks without considering brokerage and other charges. I realize that posting profit / loss numbers here make not much sense. So from now on wont post the numbers.

12 Feb

LT 5 min:

Thought it was a good trade. Entry and exit was per plan. Ended up making a loss of 1125 without considering brokerage and other charges. Should be around 1400 loss.

Reason to buy lies in the daily chart below:

Fired up in last 5 mins. Fooled me very well. Things have been bad for quite some time now. Losing out on money, time and patience. Hope things change soon.

11 Feb.

AuroPharma:

Traded with 1000 qty in cash segment. Zerodha terminal stopped responding immediately after the trigger. Hence was a bit late to exit. Would have made 1000 bucks had it responded well.

Net Profit: 952

Trades dated 7 Feb

TataMotors 5 min chart:

Just could not hold on for enough time. Was out in 2 mins only. Profit RS 622 net after brokerage. Guess it will take some time to learn the art of holding on.

Trades for 6 FEB

No trades today. Missed long opportunity ACC / Maruti and Crude oil.

Below is 5 min chart for BHARATFORGE have no position in it but still tracking it closely.

Goes above Ydays's high, touches BRN i.e 350 and down! In 2nd hal Yday Nifty bounced bak but BharatForge dint.

Trades for 5th Feb:

RCOM 5 min:

BHARATFORGE 5 min:

Both trades were per plan. No impulsive trades today. BHARATFORGE acted strange. Very strange. The way it moved down indicates that bull run is over in this scrip. My Money management does not allow to carry short position in it. Hence have to let go. If I had enough capital would have carried a short position in BharatForge for minimum of 5% gain. All in all another bad for accounts.



Net Loss: -4880 RS

Trades 4th Feb.

BNF 5 min:

DLF 5 min:

Tata Motors 5 min:

Bit of impulsive trading was done. Need to wait patiently for an opportunity to arise. Trading every day is not required. Okay to not trade on a few days. Turnover was about 20 Lacs today, indicates over trading?

All in all Net Loss: -1175 RS.
