Thread : Tech Stack at our Company

1) Technology is at the core of how we approach trading & we consider ourselves as much a technology company as a trading firm.

The tech team has remained under the hood so let me introduce the team & the tech stack used.

#Technologies
2) Django :

We use the Django framework for most of our web apps (in house scanners) as it encourages rapid development & clean, pragmatic design.
3) Python

Python is extensively used for backtesting as various open-source modules like pandas, NumPy, Talib, Backtrader, FFN, Matplotlib, and many more data analytics & visualization tools are built on top of it.

Python helps us in analysing large datasets in a easy way
4) Postgres DataBase:

Postgres database nodes to store and retrieve a gigantic amount of data our market data API’s fetches from the exchange in real-time

Data across multiple instruments, across multiple expiries,across multiple strikes for last many years is stored
5)Machine Learning:

Bit of ML to optimise entry & exit conditions of specific systems

Decision Trees are employed to split data continuously according to a certain parameter.

Tools : Scikit-learn, TensorFLow & Keras
6)AWS Cloud Server & Digital Ocean

Used for storing all data that is generated & hosting virtual servers ( for websites & internal applications)
7a) Scheduling (Cron Job):

Under the hood of our various automated trading algos, alerts systems, risk management systems lie countless cron jobs which help schedule tasks.

Software interrupts are employed to manage synchronous events for our Algo trading bots.
7b ) Risk Management:

A master node collects all the events& logs them on a dashboard as a centralized knowledge hub for all open positions.

To keep check of an unsystematic risk event like exchange blackout etc the master dashboard provides endpoints to manually manage trades.
8) So I provided a quick & broad, overview of our stack.

In future posts, I’ll explain them in more detail & also introduce you to the tech team(not active much on twitter) & ask them to write detailed tech blog for tech geeks

This is Mark Douglas.
He wrote “Trading in the Zone” — one of the greatest trading books of all time.
But his live lectures go even deeper.
Here are 11 priceless insights that will instantly make you a better trader 🧵 Image
1. “Anything can happen.”
The market doesn’t owe you anything.
There are no guarantees.
Accept uncertainty — or get eaten by it. Image
2. “You don’t need to know what’s going to happen next to make money.”
Prediction is a myth.
You only need a repeatable edge and the discipline to follow it. Image

10 years in the markets.
Lots of trades.
Tons of mistakes.

10 major mistakes & lessons in last 10 years of Trading

A thread🧵 Image
1) I was able to enter and ride uptrend but unable to exit when trend changes.

This is similar to Abhimanyu Chakravyuh from Mahabharat where one knows how to enter but doesn’t know how to exit.

So a good trader is one who can do well in both bull & bear markets Image
2) Justifying a wrong trade taken in smaller time frame

I used to enter on smaller time frame but kept changing my stoploss

For eg
20 sma broken
But 50 sma hold karge
200 sma toh pakka hi hold karega

Always respect your stoploss. No matter what

What happened in sensex expiry today be explained logically ?

Thread: Image
2) While
Sensex was going up⬆️
Call premiums weee increasing ⬆️
& also
Put premiums increasing⬆️

And then till 2 pm IV keeps on rising with no decay on the straddle & then followed a sharp directional move

IV’s again preceding the move which is unusual! Image
3) If you observe closely

On expiry days when IV’s start to increase since morning, on that day a directional move comes in the 2nd half..

This is happening too frequently.

Ideally move should first and that IV’s should increase but Image

Thread: How Drawdowns Make You a Better Trader 🧵 Image
1) “A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.”

Just like a calm sea never makes a skilled sailor, easy and steady markets won’t make you a great trader! Image
2) Reason for this thread:

No one talks about drawdowns, but they are part of every trader's journey. Always manage risk, follow your systems, and don't fear losses. No system is profitable all the time. Image
