BOF Scanner Trading Success: MCX Reversal, Option Trade & 1:3 RR Explained

πŸš€ BOF Scanner Trading Success: MCX Reversal, Option Trade & 1:3 RR Explained πŸ“ˆπŸŽ―πŸ’°


The BOF Scanner helps identify potential Breakout Failure (BOF) setups by highlighting important price levels and reversal opportunities. In this example, the setup begins with a 09:45 AM BOF Scanner alert on the MCX 5-minute chart and progresses into an options trade that reaches a 1:3+ Risk-to-Reward level.


Here’s the complete chart-by-chart breakdown πŸ‘‡



1️⃣ Chart 1 β€” BOF Scanner Identifies the Setup πŸ””πŸ“Š

πŸ“Œ MCX 5-Minute Chart

The first chart shows the MCX 5-minute price chart with a 09:45 AM BOF Scanner alert.

The key reference level on the chart is the VRZ Low at β‚Ή3,254.30.

Price moves down toward and below the VRZ Low. Instead of continuing lower, price quickly reverses and moves back above the level.

This creates the Breakout Failure (BOF) setup. πŸ”„πŸ“ˆ


πŸ”” BOF Scanner Alert

The scanner generates the alert at:

⏰ 09:45 AM | 5 Mins BOF

The chart identifies:

πŸ“ VRZ Low: β‚Ή3,254.30

This is the key level around which the setup develops.


🎯 Trade Structure

  • πŸ”” BOF Alert: 09:45 AM
  • πŸ“ Reference Level: VRZ Low β‚Ή3,254.30
  • 🎯 Entry: Close to the VRZ level
  • πŸ›‘ Stop-Loss: Below the BOF candle low
  • πŸ“ˆ Risk Management: Look for at least 1:3 Risk-to-Reward

After the BOF formation, price begins a strong recovery and moves toward the β‚Ή3,290–₹3,300 zone. πŸš€


πŸ“ Chart 1 Takeaway

The first chart establishes the trade idea: the BOF Scanner identifies a failed breakdown around the VRZ Low, creating a structured setup with a defined entry area and stop-loss.



2️⃣ Chart 2 β€” BOF Setup Applied to the MCX 3250 CE πŸ“ˆπŸš€

Once the underlying MCX setup develops, the second chart shows the corresponding MCX 29 Sep 2026 3250 CE on a 5-minute chart.


πŸ“Œ Option Details

  • 🏷️ Contract: MCX 29 Sep 2026 3250 CE
  • ⏱️ Timeframe: 5 Minutes
  • πŸ“¦ Quantity: 225
  • 🎯 1 Lot: 225 Qty
  • πŸ’° Price Shown: β‚Ή145.25

The option initially experiences a sharp decline before producing a strong reversal.

Following the BOF-based move, the option price climbs from the lower zone toward the β‚Ή150 area and above. πŸ“ˆ


πŸ”΄ Risk Calculation

The chart shows:

Risk = β‚Ή6 per unit

For 225 quantity:

225 Γ— β‚Ή6 = β‚Ή1,350


πŸ”΄ Total Risk = β‚Ή1,350


🟒 Reward Calculation

The chart shows:

Reward so far = β‚Ή22 per unit

For 225 quantity:

225 Γ— β‚Ή22 = β‚Ή4,950


🟒 Total Reward So Far = β‚Ή4,950

This means the reward shown on the chart is substantially higher than the calculated initial risk. πŸ’°


πŸ“ Chart 2 Takeaway

The second chart demonstrates how the BOF setup translated into an options trade. The chart records β‚Ή6 of risk per unit against β‚Ή22 of reward per unit, producing a strong Risk-to-Reward outcome.


3️⃣ Chart 3 β€” MCX Move Confirms the 1:3 RR πŸŽ―πŸ“ˆ

The third chart returns to the MCX 29 Sep 2026 5-minute chart and shows the underlying price movement following the BOF setup.

The chart shows price moving upward from the trade area toward β‚Ή3,308.40, with the upper level marked around β‚Ή3,315.50. πŸš€


πŸ“Œ Important Levels

  • 🎯 Entry/Reference: β‚Ή3,275.40
  • πŸ›‘ Stop-Loss: β‚Ή3,262.10
  • πŸ“ˆ Price Shown: β‚Ή3,308.40
  • 🎯 Upper Level: β‚Ή3,315.50


πŸ”΄ Risk Per Lot

The chart calculates:

Risk points/lot = 13

With one lot containing 225 Qty:

13 Γ— 225 = β‚Ή2,925


πŸ”΄ Total Risk = β‚Ή2,925 per lot

🟒 Reward Achieved

The chart shows:

Reward points so far/lot = 40

For 225 quantity:

40 Γ— 225 = β‚Ή9,000


🟒 Total Reward So Far = β‚Ή9,000 per lot


🎯 1:3 Risk-to-Reward Achieved βœ…πŸ”₯

The third chart clearly states:


β€œ1:3 RR Achieved Already.”

The calculation is:

40 Γ· 13 β‰ˆ 3.08

So, based on the figures displayed on the chart, the trade has crossed the 1:3 Risk-to-Reward milestone. 🎯


πŸ’° Trade Calculation

πŸ”΄ Risk: β‚Ή2,925

🟒 Reward: β‚Ή9,000

πŸ“Š Risk-to-Reward: Approximately 1:3.08

This means the reward shown so far is more than three times the defined risk.


πŸ”„ Complete BOF Scanner Trade Flow

Here’s the complete setup in simple steps:


πŸ”” STEP 1 β€” BOF Scanner Alert

The BOF Scanner detects a setup at 09:45 AM on the 5-minute MCX chart.

πŸ“ VRZ Low = β‚Ή3,254.30

Price fails to sustain the breakdown and reverses back above the VRZ Low.


🎯 STEP 2 β€” Define the Trade

The setup uses the VRZ area as the entry reference.

πŸ›‘ The stop-loss is positioned below the BOF candle low, keeping the risk clearly defined.

πŸ“ˆ The trading plan aims for at least 1:3 Risk-to-Reward.


πŸ“ˆ STEP 3 β€” Option Trade

The setup is reflected in the MCX 29 Sep 2026 3250 CE.

πŸ“¦ 1 Lot = 225 Qty

The chart records:

πŸ”΄ Risk = β‚Ή6/unit

🟒 Reward so far = β‚Ή22/unit

πŸ’° Total Risk = β‚Ή1,350

πŸ’° Total Reward = β‚Ή4,950


πŸš€ STEP 4 β€” Underlying MCX Move

The MCX chart shows the underlying price moving higher.

πŸ”΄ Risk = 13 points

🟒 Reward achieved = 40 points

πŸ“¦ Quantity = 225

πŸ”΄ Risk = β‚Ή2,925

🟒 Reward = β‚Ή9,000


βœ… STEP 5 β€” 1:3 RR Milestone

The reward reaches approximately 3.08 times the defined risk.

🎯 1:3 RR Achieved Already


🎯 BOF Trade Snapshot

πŸ“Š From BOF Scanner Alert to 1:3+ Risk-to-Reward

This trade example demonstrates how a BOF Scanner alert can be followed through a structured trading process.

The setup begins with a 09:45 AM BOF alert on the MCX 5-minute chart, where price fails to sustain a breakdown around the VRZ Low of β‚Ή3,254.30. The reversal provides the basis for the trade, with the entry positioned close to the VRZ level and the stop-loss placed below the BOF candle low.

The setup is then reflected in the MCX 29 Sep 2026 3250 CE. With 225 quantity per lot, the chart records a risk of β‚Ή6 per unit and a reward of β‚Ή22 per unit.

This results in:

πŸ”΄ Total Risk = β‚Ή1,350

🟒 Total Reward = β‚Ή4,950

The third chart shows the underlying MCX move in greater detail. The setup carries 13 points of risk and reaches 40 points of reward.

For 225 quantity:

πŸ”΄ Risk = β‚Ή2,925

🟒 Reward = β‚Ή9,000

That puts the trade at approximately 1:3.08 Risk-to-Reward, meaning the 1:3 RR milestone has already been achieved based on the figures displayed in the chart. 🎯πŸ”₯
