Hello Everyone. Just thought of sharing this unpleasant truth at the expense of being criticised. This is for people who are below decent level of capital and want to make decent return from the market. No matter how many people people come your way with their best of intentions
You might not able to stand benefitted. Have spoken to at-least few thousands to know one of basic crux of the failure of most of the ‘Retail Traders’ is being UNDERCAPITALISED! It’s like you are fighting a war with a sword with people having tankers missile guns etc. Don’t be
Mislead by the YouTubers like the messiahs out there to help you out. Don’t enter FNO market if you haven’t got at-least 7-8l for a long term longitivtiy. Please invest, Do SIPs, and have peaceful life. Return of Capital from market is far more important than Return On Capital.
It’s not a easy path to walk. Prepare well, have good knowledge build up, good capital, and having a back up plan if things don’t work out. Don’t keep you life on line of fire. Your family life is what that matters, Don’t spoil it by the adventurism. Hotel California line suits
Well here. ‘’You can Check in anytime you want but you can’t check out’’. First the capital loss, then the borrowing from relatives-friends- then some PLs. And you get into this never ending loop. Not meant to offend anyone, have been through this all hence sharing this with
You all. Don’t end up being a product. Let your miseries and failures not be the selling point of somebody else. It’s not easy, if you are ready to - work hard - learn the craft slowly and understand the risk then only get in. Also let me assure you will be duly rewarded if you
Put effort. Take this as a reality check. Understand your situation properly and take dive. Don’t take it lightly. Wish you all the best. Wish you happy Holi. Cheers..

Just wanted to share a bit of learning of my trading experience. In case you are a positional trader and want to take positions in index especially, there are times it offers opportunities in a platter. Let me explain it’s the differential of pricing at 330 pm vs the final price
BN’ final pricing is 25795 vs 25683 a 112 point difference..atm ce difference of 80 points..(369 vs 290)
I have been bullish and have been accumulating at dips. but the dip that was offered at the dying hours in BN was irresistible, you have to buy almost at the end if you are bullish. And what it offers almost a 100 point protection for my position for tomorrow, even if it opens
Good Morning Everyone. Just thought to share my last months pnl of my major accounts, with you all. Will do this on monthly basis, no point putting daily profit / loss. Have been maintaining these for last few months. Maintain a journal of the hits and misses :)
Will doo a thread on Numbers as I had promised sometime back. Numbers and stats fascinate me, am sure it will give you all some food for thought.
Objective is to provide a fresh perspective, up to you to believe it or not.
Most importantly Money can be made with buying and without leverage. You don't need bigger capital. Have made return of >90% on a 32L cap in last 4-5 months (not included above). That too infrequent
Last couple of days have been really sad learning that one of the past participants have been in loss for a while and have suffered more loss in recent times..Have been through this many a times..That gut wrenching feeling when you think you would make it, just
One more chance and then one more and it continues..Have blown up my accounts at-least 5-6 times..and every time I would start afresh, would tell myself I Know what I would..would know how exactly I will manage my trading and then old habits would make me go bust..
Till I changed the way I was trading earlier, brought some amount of discipline and method, slowly and steadily started making bit of money..This friend is paying 83% of his salary as EMI..by hearing that it just crushed my heart, went back to the point where I was losing all of
Since Earning season around the corner, just thought to share something basic. Not sure how many of you are into valuations. All my corporate career was spent in different IBs. The core working of the IBD is to prepare this heavy deck called Pitch Book
2. which gets circulated through all the MDs & Eds and we had to crunch the numbers and have to work against time for finishing the book in time. Which is basically comprised off Company profiles, Quants and Valuations (Comps-DSCFs / DDMs, SOTPs) etc. One of the core objectives
3. is to derive the fair pricing and this going in for Deals discussions with prospective clients. It was fun till it lasted but there was no life with 14 hours of slogging on daily basis. Reason for me to getting into trading. More on this on some other time.
1 - An old dear friend of me called me last weekend and wanted my advice for starting his career in trading. He wanted to know the tricks of the trade without even knowing what preparation need to be done. Lost his job, and now wants to be full time trader.
2 - Spoke to him at length and persuaded him not to get in till he understands what’s in there. Thought of sharing it with you all, if any of you are contemplating!!
Here is a write-up for wishing all the new traders who have got into the market thinking, its easy out there.
3 - I too felt the same when I had started out.
In my opinion a new era in the market has started, with all the new rules and we have to figure out how best to adapt to it. But that's the thing just because something has worked and was successful in the past not necessary it
Brief write-up on Gamma. Hope you hv few takeaways
1 - Gamma is one of the Option Greeks. It measures the rate of change of the Delta of the option with respect to a move in the underlying asset. Specifically, the Gamma of an option tells us by how much the delta of an option
2 -would increase by when the underlying moves by 1 unit. Since Delta is a first derivative, Gamma is a second derivative of the price of the option.
A : Gamma Characteristics:
Gamma is a +ve function. If we own options, we own Gamma. If we are short options, we must have
3 - short Gamma.
Gamma is what makes Delta go from mild to ferocious, from small to large. The instability of that Delta depends on the option’s Gamma
a) Long Option Benefits of Gamma
Gamma is friendliest to long option holders. It accelerates profits for every 1point, the
