Mr. Vijay Kedia built a net worth of over Rs. 800 crores.

But you probably never read past that headline.

So I binged hours of interviews to learn his investing principles and strategies.

Here are 20 lessons on investing from @VijayKedia1 Sir:

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal

 Before I start, a quick disclaimer, please don't ape his portfolio.

As the entry price, horizon and risk appetite would be far different than yours.

Rather lets draw inspiration and try to learn his stock picking skills.

Now let's DIVE IN👇
1/ Started off as a trader:

- Soon, beginner’s luck started to fade out and loses started to mount, to an extent where his mother was about to sell her ornaments.

- Although he was able to dodge the situation.

- This incident taught him the biggest lesson to have a stop-loss.
2/ Punjab Tractors:

- In 1990, he made his first investment by putting in his 10-years savings of Rs 35,000 in this stock, based on a news trigger that tractor industry will witness a turnaround.

- It worked and fetched him 4-5 times which he calls it as a fluke.
3/ He believes that an investor must possess three qualities:

i. Knowledge,
ii. Courage, and
iii. Patience.
4/ Patience is a virtue:

- He picked 5% stake in Aegis Logistics at Rs.20.
- The stock didn't move the next year.
- Finding a gem isn’t enough, finding the courage to stick through without fear & disappointment is.
- Eventually, the stock rallied to Rs. 300.
5/ Stock investing should be simple:

- One cannot get a small company that is cheap and has prime return ratios too.

- Focus on the core qualities of the business model.

- Look at the underlying story of the stock and the industry.

- Management should be transparent.
6/ Framework for picking stocks: SMILE principle:

He chooses a small cap & mid cap companies which has the following ingredients:

• S: Small in size
• Mi: Management with medium experience
• L : Large in aspirations
• E: Extra large market potential
7/ S: Small in Size

-Small in size refers to the company’s market share to the total market size of the industry.

-Don't be under the wrong notion that small in size means with reference to market capitalization.
8/ Mi – Management with medium experience

- Management must be aggressive, transparent, and dedicated.
- He looks for management who would have gone through about 2-3 up & down cycles.
- Management should be motivated to grow the company and add value for all stakeholders.
9/ L – Large in aspirations

- For a company to grow from small to medium size, the management should have large aspirations.

- If management aims to become a billionaire only then the shareholder will become a millionaire.
10/ E: Extra large market potential

- For a company to grow from small size to medium or from medium to large, the market and the underlying asset should have that potential.
11/ Stay in a Sunrise industry at any cost, stay out of a Sunset industry at any cost:
12/ Prefer no debt / low debt companies:
13/ When does aspirations of a company take a hit: Part 1

Acronym CHANGE:

• C: Chamchas
• Ha: Health
14/ When does aspirations of a company take a hit: Part 2
Acronym CHANGE:

• NG: Next Generation
• E: Ego
15/ Don't get carried away with the market mood:

Neither be an optimistic during an uptrend nor be a pessimistic in a downtrend.

His investment mantra is to – ‘Buy like a bull, sit like a bear and watch like an eagle.
16/ Sizing makes you earn serious wealth.

- Finding the right companies is not enough if you don't own a substantial piece of it.

- He doesn't fear the quantity because his aspiration in future is to allocate is even bigger than what it is today.
17/ Snippet of his holdings:

For more details: https://t.co/OgbcIijTGq
18/ Market is a sea of opportunities

- Presents various types of risk rewards.

- Know your type and act accordingly.
19/ People who are living far below their means enjoy a freedom that people busy upgrading their lifestyles just can’t fathom. - NAVAL

- Don't fall in the trap of upgrading your lifestyle.

- Cut down your expenses on depreciating assets.
20/ Investing is a blessed business:

-One should be prepared to get immersed into this business of investing to reap the fruits out of it.

How to save taxes on the trading profits for an individual

4 Legit ways to retain most of the trading income: 🧵

Collaborated with @AdityaTodmal

1. Divide your capital amongst your family members:

• Ensure they are not salaried employees as they might not be allowed to trade as per their employer's policy.

• Your family is your strength, not just emotionally, but financially too.

• E.g. your net taxable income works out to Rs. 50 lacs, as per the new tax regime, you are in the 30% tax bracket.

However, if you divide the capital amongst your family members in such a way that the net taxable income works out to Rs. 12.5 lacs per member (assuming 4).

This way the tax bracket gets shifted from 30% to 20%, clear saving of 10%

2. Expenses a trader can claim:

All the expenses directly related to the trading business can be claimed.

i) Rent Expense: If one has an office on rented premises, rent paid is a valid expense. However, you should have the rent receipts & rent agreement as valid proof.

Few weeks ago @Ronak_Unadkat Sir conducted an exclusive session for me & @adityatodmal to explain how he trades.

He was kind enough to share all his trade strategies and was patient enough to answer our doubts.

Thought of making a 🧵for the benefit of the larger audience here.

Sir's Option Selling Logic 🧵:
• Reversals in Intraday Option selling
• Strike Selection & SL
• Hedging for any Black Swan Event
• Positional Option selling
• Ratio Spreads
• How to manage the positions
• Capital mgmt

In collaboration with @AdityaTodmal


How to play reversals
• Always look at the chart as a starting point
• Spot the Swing low
• Sell Strikes 300-400 points below that swing low
• Buy a proper hedge


• Example on how to play reversals on Intraday
• Instead of the selling the support strike sell a bit far


• As the strike is far from the support you get enough cushion

• As soon as the SL is hit, you can exit the positions

• without your strike coming into ITM

5 RULES TO IDENTIFY A STRATEGY THAT WORKS:

There are plenty of trading systems available on the internet and there are many trading systems providers.

But how do you know which ones are going to be potentially profitable?

1/ PREMISE OF THE STRATEGY:

The most important factor in any trading system is the premise or philosophy or logic on which it is built.

The systems must be able to identify certain repetitive behaviors which are inherent to any market.

An example could be #trend or #momentum or #mean reversion etc.

The magnitude of these behaviors could vary over time but they are natural to any markets.

Better yet, you should have multiple systems that attack these behaviors...

This is what I call the Hybrid Approach !!!

2./ SIMPLER, THE BETTER:

Once you have understood the logic behind the system, make sure it's based on simple rules.

If there are more rules, it’s a red flag that the systems are probably over-optimized or curve fit to past data which is unlikely to work in the future.

Most of my strategies have no more than 5-6 rules.

That’s it.

Keep it Simple, Stupid!

Pretending that voting for Trump or denying climate change or suggesting the solution to every problem is more guns is a legitimate point of view, worthy of respect is not "how America works." It is how it dies.

People in a free society are entitled to any point of view no matter how obviously wrong or outlandish or destructive provided they do not impose their views on others.

But suggesting that something ignorant or divorced from reality warrants the same kind of treatment in public debate as something based in fact or at least credible is absurd and when done on behalf of a society in public media or academic settings it is self-destructive.

We would not grant media coverage or much bandwidth at all to a group that argued that unicorns exist or that there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yet views like denying climate change or basing policy decisions on sweeping, obvious lies, are just as unsound.

Somewhere, somehow, judgments must be made. Some behaviors are wrong and must be condemned. Someone must challenge lies and demand facts. Coddling people who embrace idiocies does not help them no matter how loudly they demand to be coddled.

Surkanda devi mandir is a famous shrine of Hindus located near Kaddukhal distt of Uttarakhand, 11 Km from the town of Dhanaulti and 35 Km from Mussoorie.
The Temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peethas spread all over Indian Subcontinent and is dedicated to Goddess Surkanda.


Nestled on a Hill at an Altitude of 2700 m approx, the place offers a splendid view of the snow capped mountains, the picturesque scenic beauty that offers an experience of the lifetime.
The Temple build in the traditional Garhwal style exuberates the Architectural splendour.


The origins of the Surkanda Mata Mandir is attributed to Goddess Sati, consort of Bhagwan Shiv who in a rage immolated herself in her arrogant Father Daksha's Yajna Kund bcoz he didn't invite Bhagwan Shiv in the Yajna.


Devastated by the death of Sati Shiva wandered all over the cosmos performing Tandava-The Dance of Cosmic Destruction.Fearing the total annihilation of cosmos, Gods requested Bhagwan Vishnu to pacify Shiva.Bhagwan Vishnu then used his discuss to destroy the burning corps of Sati.


The pieces of Sati Mata's body then got scattered all over the region which were later established as Shakti Peethas by Bhagwan Shiva himself.Its believed that the head of Sati fell here and it was called Sirkhanda Mata Temple before, but with passage of time it became Surkanda.

1) Core attributes of a promising founder worth following:
- Progress/trajectory over time
- How well they lead a team &
- Make the vision happen
- Most impressed when someone is way ahead of where you thought they would be when you check up/see them a few months later.

2) Indie Makers have such a benefit of being small, fast, nimble workers in comparison to big companies.

We can easily pivot and vastly change a project of ours. We can change as we learn more about our users.

Big companies can take months/years for even the smallest of pivots.

3) Before you find a product market you can pivot your project as many times as necessary until you find something that works.

Then you only have one thing to do: scale, scale, scale.

4) Be obsessed with the little details.
- listen to every single person who uses your product
- reply to every single person who emails you about your product
- ask them what they like and do not like
- iterate your product, make changes, pivot if necessary

5) Paul Graham's (@paulg) name came up with a feeling of great admiration! Naturally! It was Paul who said:

In the early stages of a company just;
- write code
- talk/sell to customers to stress test your idea

Nothing else.
