1) Try to Simply your trading approach after a point of time. One more indicator / tool / strategy won’t make you a good trader. (2/n)
2) Become a 360-degree trader. Need to have strategies to cover all scenarios. (Learnt from @PradeepBonde) (3/n)
3) There is no co-relation between how often you trade and how much money you make. Overtrading doesn't mean success in trading. (4/n)
4) Look at the big movements in each stock's chart for deep diving and research. It might not feature in the top gainer of any year.
For e.g. - A stock started surging in Oct 2021 and exhausted in April 2022 will not show up in top gainer of either 2021 or 2022. (5/n)
5) Research should be as realistic as possible. Identify and analyze all probabilities. #deepdive (6/n)
6) Trust your study and research not opinions. Trading is not complicated. (7/n)
7) You don’t need to fix your psychology. You just need a strategy in sync with a market tendency and conviction on it. Conviction comes from deep dives. (Learnt from @PradeepBonde) (8/n)
8) Know that your strategies will work at some time and won’t work at other times. Knowing the nature of your strategies will help you understand when they will work best. (9/n)
9) You don't need to make your weakness your strength to succeed. Focus on bringing your strength to your edge, and just mitigate the impact of your weaknesses. (10/n)
10) You switch your style because you don’t have the trust/conviction in your strategy – STYLE DRIFT. (11/n)
11) Technical Analysis and Trading are two different things. TA is just an opinion. Everyone can have an opinion.
The market doesn't care about opinions until it is backed by conviction i.e. money. (12/n)
12) Strategy and Setup are two different things as well. Setup is only part of your strategy. Most people think both are the same. (13/n)
13) Why do People fail in Trading -
- Obsession of demand confirmation. Waiting till the demand is over.
- Spending too much time and effort on finding a perfect looking setup.
- Lack of proper Trade Management. (For e.g. -Looking for extended in thematic longs) (14/n)
14) Understand the nature of the Strategy. You don’t need a sword to cut a carrot. You just need a knife. (You don’t need IPO base to earn 3R. Can make 3R anywhere). (15/n)
15) Don’t blindly listen to experts. Question their objective and content. Don't think you are inferior to them, and they can't be wrong. (16/n)
16) When you read a book, understand the year and age when the content was written. What concepts were popular at that time? Read between the lines and get into the mind of the author to understand what they have written. (17/n)
17) Most money is made in story stocks. But the story has a validity/expiry period. For e.g. -
a) ARK held stocks beyond the story validity period.
b) API stocks were once presented as a once in lifetime opportunity. (18/n)
18) Don’t trade just for the money. Take it as a spiritual process. (19/n)
19) Don’t let Society define the parameters of success & happiness. Leave the race super-imposed upon you by society. (20/n)
20) Be inspired by successful traders. Look at how many years of hard work has led to success. (21/n)
21) Don’t be a Gullible trader. If you look for shortcuts, someone will cheat you and make you a fool. (22/n)
22) Trading is like a sport. No return for years and then gives return of a lifetime. (23/n)
If my work has added any value to you - follow me and help it reach more people by retweeting the tweet shared below. (24/24)
Neil, the IPOBase strategy you shared in your newsletter - which was shared by your friend - was popularized in India by my research which was published in March 2021. It is actually O'Neil's work, but had never been popularized here because no one ever did a #deepdive on it. (1)
But #IPOBase in not only about buying the high of the listing week. It is infact an extremely poor interpretation of the work.
A strategy is not only limited to a setup, what makes it effective is when you manage it according to its nature & potential. (2)
The entire fintwit community took the setup from my research - which was done on all IPOs listed since 2017 and parts of it was published on twitter - but didn't paid attention to the trade management rules which resulted into underperformance for them. (3)
entering this stock was 3 days out of which on 18th Nov. gave a strong recovery and closed strongly. Next two days saw a volatility contraction in form of inside bars.
If a stock is not falling down, it is first sign of a probable recovery. Anything which is not going down (2/n)
shows its line of least resistance is not downwards, but have higher chance of it having upwards (which confirms through breakout).
Volatility is both - a trader's friend and the biggest foe. Foe when it is directionless, and friend when it expands in one direction and (3/n)
- Market is bear grip - both in long and short term.
- Volume still staying around 0.45, not suggesting any extreme. There is a high chance to see a continuation of the current situation for some more time.
corner. Don't be in hurry to label any green day a start of a bull swing. Whenever market will stretch in shorter term time frame, it will give a green day or a strong opening, only to be sold off later. Beware of bull traps.
Such actions further tighten the bear grip. (2/n)
- US had a gap up start on Friday only to be cool off later. It lacks FOMO and FOMO is the life blood of any uptrend. When a beaten down market first comes into bull run, it sustains the advances rather than giving it up.

यदि हमारे शास्त्रों में कोई सबसे दिव्य ज्ञान दिया गया है तो वो है 'अहम् ब्रह्मास्मि'! तुम में स्वयं ब्रह्म होने की क्षमता है, किंतु ब्रह्म होने की अनिवार्य शर्त एक ही है - आस्था की समाप्ति।
मुझे नहीं मालूम नास्तिकता इतनी अप्रिय क्यों है, क्यों इतनी नकारात्मक मानी जाती है। (1/n)
जनतंत्र की भांति शायद यह इतना आधुनिक विचार है जिसके लिए मनुष्यता अभी तैयार नहीं है, उसे संभालने में सक्षम नहीं है। आस्तिकता आस्था से निकलती है, आस्था में प्रश्न की संभावना नहीं, केवल समर्पण की है। यहां केवल भक्त और भगवान का संबंध संभव है।
नास्तिकता प्रश्न का अधिकार देती (2/n)
है। यहां भक्त भी कोई नहीं है और भगवान भी कोई नहीं है। यहां संबंध बराबरी का है। यह तुम्हारे ब्रह्म बनने का प्रथम सोपान है।
किंतु यदि आस्तिक बनना ही है तो नरेंद्र की तरह प्रश्न करो, और जब रामकृष्ण परमहंस मिल जाएं तो स्वयं को समर्पित करके विवेकानंद बन जाओ। (3/3)
