I use trading view for intraday charts.
As I trade intraday, I use the 5 min time frame.
My chart is simple with 20 sma plotted on it along with CPR(central pivot range)
Price > 20 sma & CPR indicates bullish trend for intraday & vice-versa
Thread : Trading Applications that I use on a daily basis🧵
1) After putting a detailed post on hardware & multi-monitor setup. Few asked for softwares I use for trading.
So I am listing softwares/apps which I find the most useful for trading & investing
I use trading view for intraday charts.
As I trade intraday, I use the 5 min time frame.
My chart is simple with 20 sma plotted on it along with CPR(central pivot range)
Price > 20 sma & CPR indicates bullish trend for intraday & vice-versa
As I majorly trade option premiums(short volatility or theta decay strategies)
I keep a track of combined premium of strangle using @iChartsIndia
Combined premium should be trending down & below VWAP to create a strangle
As I need to provide analysis on TV channel.
I need to analyse overall market breadth, futures data & option chain activitiy.
@quantsapp provides
Futures Data : Long Builtup/Short Builtup
Options Data : Max Call OI/ Put OI
Market Breadth : For overall sentiment
I used @SpiderSoftIn to scan momentum stocks for intraday.
Spider helps in identfiying :
stocks hitting 52 week high/ low
Stocks making day high/low
Stocks with large buying single orders
Helps in quick real time news.
Bloomberg is useful only if you trade mutliple markets & need access to various data quickly.
Bloomberg is an expensive software costing around 25 L per year.
One can skip bloomberg as cost is too high
I use Greeksoft for multi leg order execution. It allows you to punch 1000+ lots of strangles/ straddles as a single order.
One can put SL on combined premium, do order slicing & many more such things.
Needed only if you trade big qty multi leg option trades
Use an inhouse ranking system based on simple concepts of momentum,trend & derivatives data across time frames.
It is available only to IIFL members under our franchise(for free). To know more can check below :

a) @screener_in
Screener is useful in scanning stocks based on Fundamental parameters & also provides a quick overview of the company.
You can quickly find good companies based on fundamental parameters
@mystockedge is useful in
scanning bulk/ block deals
Checking top investor portfolios
Check company filings
IPO notes
Concall analysis
@drvijaymalik has built a great framework to analyse company in depth based on various fundamental parameters.
I personally use it to scan fundamental stocks.

A Day in the Life of a Trader (A day in my Life)
1) I absolutely love my work❤️! In fact, I grew up dreaming to be a trader. So trading, to me, doesn’t feel like working (except when I lose😂).
It’s fascinating because it’s different every day.
#trading #life
2)7:30 AM : Alarm Rings
A typical week day for me begins at 7:30 AM.
I spend the next 30 minutes on my daily chores — get ready for office, grab a quick breakfast & have a hot cuppa coffee.
3) 8:00 AM : Leave for office
On my way to office, I check what happened at the Wallstreet overnight & how are Asian markets performing.
I then look for any macro news that may affect overnight positions
P.S: We are moving to a new bigger office & will share pics of that soon
4) 9 AM - Connect with Trade Room members
I connect with trade room members on zoom & share my plan for the day, stocks to keep in radar & how to play the index & which option strategies to execute
For more details about Online Trade Room you can check

5) 9:07 - Pre Opening session
I keenly observe the pre-opening to get a general sense of where the market is it likely to open. At 9:07 AM, the pre-opening prices are out. I make a note of stocks opening with a big gap up or gap down and keep them on my watchlist.

History tells us when #USDINR moves it moves a lot. In that context it has been remarkably resilient with just 8% depreciation. It looks like we are very close to the point from where Rupee will start to appreciating again.
BTW Nifty Metal has inverse correlation with USDINR. https://t.co/X6cqVcYF3V

We know how our stock market has weathered the FII selling.

But the equally big story is how Rupee has weathered $50bn+ outflows since Oct 2021. Hats off to RBI Governor Das & his team for having the vision of building huge reserves in his tenure. pic.twitter.com/CVuF9dM361
H&S tops with ascending/descending necklines https://t.co/cmRRHp5rlh
Sir Edwards & Magee discussed sloping necklines in H&S in their classical work. I am considering this breakdown by Affle as an H&S top breakdown with a target open of 770.

The target also coincides with support at the exact same level. pic.twitter.com/n84kSgkg4q

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹
I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):
The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹
Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹
References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹

“We don’t negotiate salaries” is a negotiation tactic.
Always. No, your company is not an exception.
A tactic I don’t appreciate at all because of how unfairly it penalizes low-leverage, junior employees, and those loyal enough not to question it, but that’s negotiation for you after all. Weaponized information asymmetry.
Listen to Aditya
And by the way, you should never be worried that an offer would be withdrawn if you politely negotiate.
I have seen this happen *extremely* rarely, mostly to women, and anyway is a giant red flag. It suggests you probably didn’t want to work there.
You wish there was no negotiating so it would all be more fair? I feel you, but it’s not happening.
Instead, negotiate hard, use your privilege, and then go and share numbers with your underrepresented and underpaid colleagues. […]

"we don't negotiate salaries" really means "we'd prefer to negotiate massive signing bonuses and equity grants, but we'll negotiate salary if you REALLY insist" https://t.co/80k7nWAMoK
