Premium & Free Services (I use) - Investing & Trading🧵

I asked this question last month and was surprised by the replies. Most of us are using some form of premium service whether that is research tools, stock picking or trading. In my first year, I've used many. /1

 My initial💡was to learn quickly even it if didn't make sense in comparison to my investments or returns for a while. Knowing that I was always adding money and would eventually pare back whilst growing my investing account. I ruthlessly cut a service that I no longer use. /2
I believe you can certainly do it all for free. No question. But many people to go down a rabbit hole for a long time and back out the other side with that method. I wanted to circumvent that. I also do not just want to piggyback. I have to be learning the why and how. /3
So here is what I use on a daily or weekly basis both free & premium.

CML Pro 👑 - PAID (Invest)
By @OphirGottlieb. Top picks with brilliant research and CEO/CFO interviews. Provides clarity and perspective for investors. Long term mindset. @CMLviz https://t.co/NZOJ9k1vZG /4
Wallmine 📖 - FREE (Invest)
A fantastic free portfolio tracking tool. It's how I get most of the pie charts etc. I post. It also has a brilliant screener and SEC Filing Search. Premium Version available. I have no need for it. @wallminecom /5 https://t.co/0VrZTHwKMh
Earnings Calls📲 - FREE (Invest)
@BorsaHQ is a useful Earnings Calls App that allows you to search and stream old or new calls and play them on demand. Premium version available that allows you to download and stream calls live. /6

WeBull 📈 - FREE (Invest & Trade)

@WebullGlobal is a broker but you can use their app on phone and desktop with just an email. Great for watchlist, tracking portfolios, a quick look at price, info similar to YahooFinance. My go-to for a quick look. iPhone App is great. /7
Koyfin 📊 - Free (Invest)

@KoyfinCharts is a wonderful free tool that has the data of paid services like YCharts. Great tool for comparing companies and looking at their stats , tons of features. Will likely go behind a paywall someday. /8

https://t.co/t4UQnGYBbH
CMLViz ℹ️ - Free (Invest & Trade)

CMLViz provides a ton of really useful information without even a login required. I particularly like TearSheets for a company overview as well as Pivot Points for an easy view of the Moving Avgs. @CMLviz /9

https://t.co/sQgel7VaQ6
FinViz 📊 - Free (Invest & Trade)

FinViz is a powerful screener which can be used for investing and trading. I currently use it mainly to pick out high volume price action in real-time. As such I use their ELITE Premium service (for now). /10

https://t.co/Zo2ZmXrI8Z
TrendSpider🕷️ - Paid (Trade)

I've tried several charting services and ended up with @TrendSpider due to simplicity, UI & Price. The more I use it the more I like it. I found other services overwhelming. A lot of pros seem to use it. /11

https://t.co/8KYsRylxvC
Tradersync 📑 - Paid (Trade)

I'm new to @tradersync. Previously I had my own XL docs to track my trading but this service is so many levels up from what I could do. With CSV Import it'll save me tons of time while giving me A+ Metrics. /12 https://t.co/Jdc7i6FGCj
Earnings Whispers 👂 - Free (Trade & Invest)

A useful tool to track earnings dates confirmed or expected. I use their free service and follow on Twitter @eWhispers /13

https://t.co/JH5KcvY3pq
OptionsCalculator 🧮 - Free (Trade)

A useful tool for calculating the expected trajectory of an option whether it's complex or simple. I use this a lot. I'm not 100% on accuracy maybe someone can advise? But it gives a decent idea when learning. /14 https://t.co/D7Aey3pkJ9
Trademachine 🏧 - Paid (Trade)

https://t.co/qS386o4wxN is a backtesting software for options and stock trades. It's really excellent for finding high probability trades based on empirical data by @OphirGottlieb. I use this every day. /15
MoonshineTrading 🧙‍♂️ - Paid (Trade)

@moon_shine15 provides a trading service for stocks, crypto etc. TBH his public account is worth a follow for any trader for commentary. You can piggyback with him if that's what you want to do but I've learned a lot. /16
Fintwit 🤠 - Free (Everything)

I love #fintwit. So much free information here. But buyer beware try to identify quality accounts and people who know what they're doing. Don't be led astray by pretenders /17.
That's all for now. Love to get any feedback here. Everyone does things their own way. These work for me. Thousand Ways to skin whatever. I look longterm with my investing and trading. It's all about CAGR. Always Zoom Out. Don't get stuck in a day or a week or even a year. /End

Many of you have seen the famous Westrum Organizational Typology model, so prominently featured in State of DevOps Research, Accelerate, DevOps Handbook, etc.

This model was created Dr. Ron Westrum, a widely-cited sociologist who studied the impact of culture on safety


Thanks to Dr. @nicolefv, I was able to interview him for an upcoming episode of the Idealcast! 🤯

It was a very heady experience, and while preparing to interview him, I was startled to discover how much work he's done in healthcare, aviation, spaceflight, but also innovation.

I've read 4+ of his papers, so I thought I was familiar with his work. (Here's one paper: https://t.co/7X00O67VgS)

I was startled to learn he has also studied in depth what enables innovation. He wrote a wonderful book "Sidewinder: Creative Missile Development at China Lake"


Dr. Westrum writes about China Lake Research Labs: "its design and structure had one purpose: to foster technical creativity. It did; China Lake operated far outside the normal envelope... Sidewinder & others were "impossible" accomplishments,

I love this book because it describes traits of organizations that routinely create and maintain greatness: US space program (Mercury, Gemini, Apollo), US Naval Reactors, Toyota, Team of Teams, Tesla, the tech giants (Amazon, Google, Netflix, Google)

Learn about the STEEL SECTOR in this thread

The demand for steel is generally only 1.2 times the GDP & there is no significant growth in our GDP but still the sector has rallied relentlessly, lets try & understand

Do ‘re-tweet’ & help us educate more investors (1/22)
#Investing

The metal sector is broadly divided into 2,
-Ferrous is a category of metal that has Iron in it, Steel as an example
-Non-Ferrous is a metal, which does not have Iron content, Aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, Zinc etc.
This thread focuses on Ferrous & hence Steel (2/22)

To start, lets understand with how steel is made (its important).
Iron ore is mined, it is then first converted to Iron & Iron is then converted to Steel. There are 3 processes of making steel
-Blast Furnace
-Scrap Metal
-DRIP/Sponge
We will discuss all three (3/22)

THE TRADER'S EDGE: THINKING IN PROBABILITIES

Casinos make consistent profits day after day and year after year, doing something random

At the same time, most traders believe that the outcome of the market's behavior is not random,yet can't produce consistent profits

Thread 🧵


What casino owners ,professional traders know is that probable outcomes can also produce consistent results if you " Have an edge" and trade on a large enough sample size.

The best traders treat trading like a numbers game.

1. To illustrate, let's look at the game of blackjack-


In blackjack, the casinos have approximately a 4.5-percent edge over the player.

This means that casinos will make profit over a large enough sample size, even after several winning streaks and big profits of many players.

At the end of the day, week, month, or year, the casino always ends up with approximately 4.5 percent of the total amount wagered.

That 4.5 percent might not sound like a lot, but let's put it in perspective.

Suppose a total of $100 million dollars is wagered collectively at all of a casino's blackjack tables over the course of a year. The casino will net $4.5 million.

What casino owners and pro traders understand about the nature of probabilities is that each individual hand played

Knowledge sharing initiative Book 3: "Zurich Axioms" by Max Gunther

The book crystallizes how to think about taking investment bets (position sizing), and how to reduce risks in investing & speculation. It focuses on teaching a balance between rewards & risks.

(1/n)


Here are the key takeaways from the book:

1. Take sizeable bets in life: Taking small bets will give you a good night's sleep as you have very little to lose, but the important point is "it won't ever make you rich".

(2/n)

2. Taking size-able risk is necessary to get rich but make sure you don't go bankrupt taking that risk.

3. Don't diversify too much as gains & losses will nullify each other.

(3/n)

4. Be less greedy to make money - Book some profits when you see a sudden huge increase in wealth - fear of regret will stop you from booking profits but don't be greedy as consistent streaks of lucks are rare in life.

(4/n)

5. Cut losses when you go wrong don't start praying that your losses will recover rather act quickly take some loss and sell out.

1) “Eliminationism” is a term you need not just to become familiar with, especially in today’s American rush toward authoritarianism. This will be a long, illustrated thread explaining what it means, how it works, and why Donald Trump is now our Eliminationist in Chief.


Warning: Some images contain violence and are disturbing.

Also warning: This thread is ridiculously long. 75 tweets is insane. I apologize. But this stuff is important. I hope you find it compelling anyway. If not, I understand.

2) So, what exactly do we mean by “eliminationism”? Here’s the academic definition:


3) It was largely coined by Holocaust scholar Daniel Jonah Goldhagen in his 1996 book Hitler’s Willing Executioners, about the role ordinary Germans played in the Holocaust, which he described as fueled by “eliminationist antisemitism.”


4) The book describes how in reality the largest numbers of Jews and other victims killed by Nazi directive were rounded up and gunned down or immolated en masse and buried in mass graves by ordinary Germans and non-Jewish residents of German-occupied territories.

If there is one thing I have learned it is that people love bullshit. They buy bullshit stories from professional bullshit artists, accept bullshit philosophies, purchase bullshit how-to-books, vote for bullshitting politicians.

At first, I resisted believing this because it is illogical and dumb and frankly, doesn't reflect well on the human race of which I am a member (and thus have long been hopeful that it is more of a distinction than it actually turns out to be.)

But if you actually are interested in facts you begin to notice how little most people care for them. Sometimes it is because they are heard to learn and bullshit is so much more widely and easily available. Sometimes it is because facts make them uncomfortable about themselves.

Sometimes it is because just one tiny fact will upset a whole worldview that has grown as comfortable as an overstuffed chair. (Settling into such worldviews is a lot like settling into chairs like that because the longer you're there and the deeper you sink...

...the harder it is to hoist yourself up and out of your fat-assed intellectual laziness.) But I actually think the reason people have such an appetite for bullshit goes deeper, goes to an aspect of ourselves we just can't accept.

UNTOLD STORY OF QUEEN BHAVASHANKARI OF BENGAL - A 🧵u must read

Know the role of Naga Sadhus

PART-1

One of the most underrated empires to ever grace India is the kingdom of Bhurshut from central Bengal.

1/


A medieval powerhouse this kingdom stood firm against the Pathan invasion from Orissa twice, and with each time devastating the enemy forces.

Along with this, we also have to note that this was the time when the empire was under the reign of a widowed queen named Bhavashankari.

She wasn’t even born in a royal family and yet she achieved what most of the kings couldn’t do

This begs the question, why does no one remember this great kingdom?

3/

Bhurshut empire thrived from 15th century till late 18th century as an independent kingdom while acting as tributary state with full autonomy.

4/

What’s even more puzzling is that no one knows about the great queen Bhavanshakari who thrashed the Pathans single handedly without the aid of their allies.

5/
