The best traders are all directional traders.

We should be investing our time into learning what the best traders are doing.

I have traded with @niki_poojary for the past year, who is an aggressive directional trader.

Here are my 10 learnings trading with her: 🧵

 1. Learn directional trading

If you want to be the best, you have to be very good at gauging the direction of the market and then betting aggressively.

Practicing this style over a lot of years will give you an edge which will help you compound your account quicker.
2. Levels based trading

Premium-based sellers put an SL of double or triple in the system which has a very high probability of taking your SL.

Irrespective of premium price, just stick to the charts.

A simple understanding of S&R enables you to take trades on levels.
3. Patterns

Chart patterns are necessary to understand market trends and to predict further movements, which helps us in deploying our trades accordingly.

Eg: A symmetrical pattern means prices have squeezed a lot and an expansion is soon on the cards.

Cont. 👇🏻
Likewise, after a strong momentum, some consolidation can be expected.

Entry/Exit triggers can also be determined on the basis few patterns.

She focuses on:
1. Symmetrical Triangles
2. Rectangle breakouts
3. Flag breakouts
4. M or W breakouts
5. Range breakouts
4. Take high risks when you are winning

If you want to grow your account faster, you'll be required to take a lot of risks.

Conservative traders may make consistent returns, but not higher returns.

Cont. 👇🏻
Eg: A trader targets 1% a week.

Over 50 weeks, he'll win 40 weeks and lose 10 weeks if you take an 80% win rate.

Assuming, winning 40 times gives him 40%, and losing 10 times takes away 10%. (assuming a 1:1 risk-reward)

So, the Net ROC is 30%

Cont. 👇🏻
Despite trading conservatively, it's almost impossible to have all green weeks.

You're bound to lose a few times over a year.

If one wishes to grow his/her account then it's important to learn to trade aggressively.
5. Profit Money

One needs to first build a profit cushion by trading conservatively in the initial period.

Once the war chest is built, all you are doing is staking the profit money, so that your capital is intact.
6. Stop Loss

Earlier whenever I used to go long in futures, I never used to keep any SL as those were blue-chip stocks.

Instead, I used to sell CE's against my positions.

I used to end up holding them for at least 2 to 3 months and see huge red mtms.

SL helps psychologically.
7. No time wastage in a trade

Post trading on patterns, it's simply a target or SL.

So you get to know whether you are right/wrong pretty quickly.

Better to know early if it's wrong as you can bet elsewhere without getting stuck in a trade that isn't giving you returns.
8. Expiry Trading

The decay is extremely fast on an expiry day.

If you get your bet right on this day, you can potentially make very good money.

We take more risk on expiry days compared to other days.

Even next year, we will be focusing on expiry days the most.
9. Weekly Analysis

Weekly analysis helps in determining a range and helps us to gauge the strikes which have a high probability of expiry OTMs.

Accordingly, our trading blueprint is formed.

Without such weekly plans, we would just be selling CE's or PE's randomly.

If you use it right, Iron Fly is the most solid risk-defined strategy in trading.

But most people don't know how to adjust the strategy when it goes wrong.

Here are 7 adjustments you can do to lower risk and increase profitability: 🧵

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

0/ Who is this for?

This will greatly benefit people who freeze when it comes to managing their trades and keep booking losses.

Some trade with too much fear as well when things go wrong.

Knowing these adjustments will give you the confidence to try to manage your trades.

Most of them are to lower risk on the side the market is going in.

Some adjustments even increase the profit potential and probabilities of the trade being in profit on expiry.

Let's begin by having a look at the adjustments.

Here is the adjustment number 1 below.

1/ Don't do anything till your breakeven arrives

One reason these strategies go wrong far too quickly is due to adjusting them too frequently.

You can escape most adjustments if you simply wait for the market to arrive at your breakeven.

This will work well in monthly options.

2/ Remove Risk from Untested Side

If you've taken an iron fly and the market has gone up you can shift your put buy upwards and lock the downside risk to potentially zero.

This way you've secured one side and just need to manage the bleeding side.

Technical Analysis and 3 Strategies to deploy for Aggressive, Moderate, and Conservative Traders.

🧵 Weekly Bank Nifty Analysis for 8th December Expiry:


To form a view, let's have a look at:

1. Multi-timeframe Technical Analysis
2. Option Chain Data

Also, 3 strategies to deploy for:

1. Aggressive Traders (2.6%)
2. Moderate Risk Traders (1.3%)
3. Low-Risk Traders (0.8%)


1. Technicals

Let's start by doing some basic technical analysis.

We'll look at:

• Weekly charts.
• Daily charts.
• Hourly / 60 min charts.
• 15 min charts.

1. Weekly-

• The market has given 4 continuous green closes, so not expecting a big momentum on upside.

• This week my view is that it can take a pause.

• Longer term trend is super bullish.

• Any dip will towards 41800 will be a retest, and should be used to go long.


2. Daily:

• Candlestick pattern—Hanging Man

• Chart Pattern—Breakout Failure

• A pin bar candle is very powerful but only after a downmove.

• Here it forms near the top of upmove.

• Means some sellers are present. Below 43000 can sell calls above 43600 for the week.

Short Straddle is the highest payoff strategy in Option Selling.

However, it comes with huge risks as well.

You become good at managing Straddles with adjustments.

Here's a step-by-step breakdown on them:

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

🧵

1/ Longer-term short straddle:

If you're a fan of very big ranges for your trades, you'll get the biggest one in long-term options.

Long Term can be 3 months, 6 months, or a year away as well.

The only drawback with longer-term straddles is the slippage.

Example:


In the above example, in the March expiry, we have collected 1500 points in the 18000 Nifty Straddle.

This is actually low risk compared to the monthly or weekly Straddles.

Beginners:

Can try their hands at long-term options.

You'll get sufficient time to adjust and learn.

2/ Weekly expiries will have a very short range:

Higher risk.

Frequent adjustments.

Below is an example of a weekly Straddle in Bank Nifty.

Premium Collected: 700 points

Bank Nifty at times, moves more than this in a day.


Due to these small ranges, people prefer to do weekly Iron Fly instead of Straddles.

This takes care of the undefined risk in a small range in Straddles.

Also requires very slow and easier adjustments.

#RSI is a common indicator which most of us use in the stock market.

This learning thread would be on
"𝙐𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙍𝙎𝙄"

Like👍 & Retweet🔄 for wider reach and for more such learning thread in the future.

Also, an investment strategy is shared using RSI in the end.

1/16

Setup 1:

RSI- commonly used to show whether price is overbought or oversold.

General rule:
𝐑𝐒𝐈 > 𝟕𝟎 -- 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭
𝐑𝐒𝐈 < 𝟑𝟎 -- 𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐝

One becomes cautious once price becomes overbought and optimistic when price becomes oversold.

2/16

Let's understand this with an example of Laurus Labs:

1. It was in overbought zone and after a few days when a small dip was seen from 693 to 588 (15% downside)

2. It was in oversold zone and after a few days when a small rally was seen from 59 to 107 (82% upside)

3/16


Well, this looks very easy, but it is not.

When a price is in overbought zone and is in momentum, then it can move up without taking a dip and exiting or shorting stock would prove wrong.

When IRCTC was in overbought zone, price went up from 2718 to 6396 (135% rally).

4/16


Similarly, for oversold stock.

When a price is in oversold zone and is crashing, then it can move down without taking an upmove and buying stock would prove wrong.

When DHFL was in oversold zone, price went down from 126 to 11 (91% crash).

TREND TEMPLATE CRITERIA by the Legend @markminervini

A stock must meet all eight criteria to be deemed in a confirmed stage 2 uptrend.

1. Stock price is above both the 150-day (30-week) and the 200-day (40week) moving average price lines.

A Thread🧵

2. The 150-day moving average is above the 200-day moving average

3. The 200-day moving average line is trending up for at least 1-month (preferably 4 to 5 months or longer).

4. The 50-day (10-week moving average) is above both the 150-day and the 200-day moving averages.

5. The current stock price is at least 25 percent above its 52-week low. (Many of the best selections will be 100 percent, 300 percent, or more above their 52-week low before they emerge from a healthy consolidation period and mount a large-scale advance).

6. The current stock price is within at least 25 percent of its 52-week high
(the closer to a new high the better).

7. The relative strength (RS) ranking (as reported in Investor's Business
Daily) is no less than 70, but preferably in the 90s, which will generally be the case with the better selections.

Most members of the trading community are not proficient Twitter users.

Here are 8 effective methods to use Twitter:🧵

Collaborated with @niki_poojary


1. Use lists

The most powerful technique to completely transform your Twitter experience is using Lists since:

1) it eliminates irrelevant tweets and
2) concentrates more on what you are actually looking for.

Let me demonstrate.


Segregate people you follow into different lists.

I have a list of "Regular Trade Updates," for instance.

In order for me to study them later, this concentrates on handles that share trades.

Some traders I have on this list include-
@niki_poojary
@RijhwaniSheetal
@YMehta_


2. Mute trolls

• Some handles genuinely spew hate over their timelines.

• Completely pointless in terms of improving you.

• Muting these handles and a few more that don't provide value is the wisest course of action.

• I block and mute people without mercy.


Can also mute "specific words".

To improve his Twitter experience, @Atulsingh_asan Sir muted these words, as you can see.

शमशान में जब महर्षि दधीचि के मांसपिंड का दाह संस्कार हो रहा था तो उनकी पत्नी अपने पति का वियोग सहन नहीं कर पायी और पास में ही स्थित विशाल पीपल वृक्ष के कोटर में अपने तीन वर्ष के बालक को रख के स्वयं चिता पे बैठ कर सती हो गयी ।इस प्रकार ऋषी दधीचि और उनकी पत्नी की मुक्ति हो गयी।


परन्तु पीपल के कोटर में रखा बालक भूख प्यास से तड़पने लगा। जब कुछ नहीं मिला तो वो कोटर में पड़े पीपल के गोदों (फल) को खाकर बड़ा होने लगा। कालान्तर में पीपल के फलों और पत्तों को खाकर बालक का जीवन किसी प्रकार सुरक्षित रहा।

एक दिन देवर्षि नारद वहां से गुजर रहे थे ।नारद ने पीपल के कोटर में बालक को देख कर उसका परिचय मांगा -
नारद बोले - बालक तुम कौन हो?
बालक - यही तो मैं भी जानना चहता हूँ ।
नारद - तुम्हारे जनक कौन हैं?
बालक - यही तो मैं भी जानना चाहता हूँ ।

तब नारद ने आँखें बन्द कर ध्यान लगाया ।


तत्पश्चात आश्चर्यचकित हो कर बालक को बताया कि 'हे बालक! तुम महान दानी महर्षि दधीचि के पुत्र हो । तुम्हारे पिता की अस्थियों का वज्रास्त्र बनाकर ही देवताओं ने असुरों पर विजय पायी थी।तुम्हारे पिता की मृत्यु मात्र 31 वर्ष की वय में ही हो गयी थी'।

बालक - मेरे पिता की अकाल मृत्यु का क्या कारण था?
नारद - तुम्हारे पिता पर शनिदेव की महादशा थी।
बालक - मेरे उपर आयी विपत्ति का कारण क्या था?
नारद - शनिदेव की महादशा।
इतना बताकर देवर्षि नारद ने पीपल के पत्तों और गोदों को खाकर बड़े हुए उस बालक का नाम पिप्पलाद रखा और उसे दीक्षित किया।

How to sell option?
Here let me explain through simple math.
Say BN at 30000
30000 straddle trading at combine premium 800 ( based on current volatility)
Put at 400
Call at 400
You don’t know direction. Sold both.

If move will not come than both will decrease gradually.

At day end it will come down to 720-740 if move will not come. Difference is your profit.

Now case 2:
Move started.
At one points combine premium will start increasing.
Say 810.
Exit immediately. No need to do adjustment.
Let market settle.

Sell again straddle once market settle.
Now repeat same thing.

Straddle selling webinar over.
Good luck.

One can keep SL 550 for both strike to escape from sudden movement.

A lot of bootstrappers think they have a marketing problem:

"I need to get better at marketing."

But, it's more likely that you have a product problem:

"Do customers really want this? Do they care enough about this to switch to a new solution?"

☝️ this is why most of my book, @marketingdevs, is about:

1. Choosing the right market
2. Building something they want

"If your product is remarkable, getting noticed is a lot easier." – @peldi


I was reminded of this concept again this morning while reading @pjrvs' book (Company of One):

"Sales increase when you honestly evaluate what someone needs and then teach them the value of what you're selling."


To succeed, your product has to offer an outcome that is highly desirable to a large group of customers.

The number of sales your product receives is a multiple of these two variables:

1. How big is the target market?
2. How desirable is the outcome you're offering them?

Chennimalai Murugan Kovil
#Erode
#TamilNaduTemples 🚩

Chennimalai Murugan Temple is located  near Perunthurai in Erode District. Murugan is worshipped here as Dandayudapani. Temple is situated on the banks of Noyyal river also called Kanchima Nadhi. Temple is situated in a hill


Sthala Puranam says that, there lived a Landlord who had many cows in his farm. One among them was a Black Cow, which didn't give milk. Land lord observed that evening time, when all the cows came back after grazing, this cow used to go to a particular spot and gave all  the milk


by itself. He decided to dig the spot where the cow gave its milk

On digging a beautiful Vigraham of Murugan was found, but lower portion was very rough. So he called a great sculptor to soften it. Everyone was shocked to see that on the first chisel the vigraham bleeded.


Land lord realized that Murugan wanted the Vigraham the way it was.

Thus Prathishta was done on Chennimalai hill. It is believed that Sivalaya Chola got relieved from his Brahmahatti Dosha here. Kanda Shasti Kavacham was first offered here.

12 Azhwars (Alwars)

The 12 Azhwars, (the Main composers of Naalayira Divya Prabandam - 4000 poetic Rhymes) are known as Nityasuris or Divyasuris; those who reside permanently with the Lord in His Heavenly abode.


They have incarnated as Azhwars -Vasihnavite Saints - to propagate Bhakthi Marga, devotion to Lord Vishnu.

Alwars have dedicated their lives towards Lord Sriman Narayana and they led their life by praising Him.

These Alwars were born in various parts of our country but they were all united in a common subject, ie dedicating their lives and praising the Lord.

Poigai Alwar, Bhoodath Alwar and Pei Alwar are collectively called as "Mudhal Alwars" were found in the same period of time.

Thirumazhisai Alwar, who thought the Perumal as his friend and has sung Mangalasasanam on Perumal.

Thirumangai Alwar was a great king and later, changed his life to work for the Perumal and for his bhaktaas.

Thondaradippodi Alwar, who is also named as "Vipra Narayanar" led his life as the servant to the God and did service to Him by offering beautiful Garlands.
