10 Essential Trading Principles (Thread)

⬇️

 1️⃣ Trade Plan:

The first thing before a position is initiated is a clear plan must be in place detailing specific entry areas, their associated sell stops, and potential profit-taking zones.

Below are some factors to consider when crafting your trade plan:
✅ Individual Goals
✅ Personal Progress
✅ Current Market Environment
✅ The many fundamental and technical factors relevant to each individual stock, its sector, industry group, and its overall strength relative to the rest of its industry.
2️⃣ Risk Management:

This is the golden key to consistent success in the stock market. Yes, it is even more important than stock selection.

Bernard Baruch, a close friend of Livermore said even being right 3 or 4x out of 10 should yield a person a fortune if he cuts his losses.
3️⃣ Annual & Quarterly Earnings:

Look for companies with:

✅ Annual earnings that are positive and have been increasing YoY for at least 3 years.
✅ At least 25% QoQ earnings/sales growth for a minimum of 3 quarters.

These are early indicators a stock may be ready to explode.
4️⃣ Direction of the General Market:

Three-quarters of all stocks follow the direction or trend of the general market. William O’Neil would often say that getting this part of the equation correct is more than half the ballgame.
Keep in mind however that the stock market is half science and half art. Hence, this only solves the first half of the equation. The other half involves qualitative factors that largely concern the overall health and breadth of the market’s leadership.
Understanding how to correctly interpret the action of the market’s leadership is crucial, especially when the general market is in a correction or consolidation mode. Healthy rotation is always the key.
5️⃣ Emotional & Psychological Capital:

Understanding how to properly manage one’s emotional and psychological capital is every bit as important, if not more so than the proper management of one’s financial capital.
This goes well beyond simply understanding your psychology and emotions as they pertain to trading. How you handle your personal life plays a big role as well.
For example, things like your health, the health of your loved ones, all of your relationships, and personal finances are just as important as your trading and must be kept in balance as best as possible.

6️⃣ Relative Strength:

Buy the strongest stocks, in the strongest groups, with the strongest fundamental story and strongest growth characteristics. Period.

Add the RS Line to your charts. Easy and Free 👇
https://t.co/nZP1LYE6qP
In general, the RS line for a stock should be in an uptrend and at a bare minimum, confirming new highs in price as a stock moves higher.

When the general market is consolidating or correcting, the RS line should start to make new highs ahead of a stock’s price.
7️⃣ Liquidity:

The more money you manage, the more you will learn to love liquidity. However, extremely large-cap stocks can become quite sluggish and slow.
According to a 40-year study by William O'Neil, if all else is equal when given the choice between two stocks, choose the stock with the lower amount of total shares outstanding in their capitalization.
8️⃣ Institutional Sponsorship:

Large institutions account for over 70% of the market's total volume. Some manage hundreds of billions of dollars. So when one of their portfolio managers decides to take a position in a stock, it can take weeks to months for them to accumulate.
It is often very difficult for large institutions to hide their tracks especially when they are all trying to pile into these same stocks. It is for this reason why heavy volume accumulation or distribution is so important and used to identify institutions entering or exiting.
9️⃣ Optimal Entry:

This is the point where risk/reward is highly skewed in your favor.

❗ Limit your buying activity to stocks that have formed constructive bases.
🔟 New Leadership:

The USA is often on the leading edge when it comes to developing new products and services that change the way we live, work and communicate. These companies are the lifeblood of a healthy bull market and the key ingredient to a sustainable uptrend.
Every bull market or uptrend is led higher by at least 2 or 3 groups of well-established leadership and every new bull cycle should be led by a fresh batch of new leaders.

Rarely does old leadership come back to life, and the ones that do typically take a very long time.

How to deal with Deep Red/ Reversal Days (Thread)

Often when the market is extended, we can get a quick reversal to the downside with little or no warning.

There are two main ways these days can go.

We can have a steady selling day with key stocks losing pivots or we can retrace, reverse and then finish strong.

When the market starts showing signs of accelerating distribution during the day, and leading stocks are suddenly down 5+ %, emotions and panic can quickly cause you to ignore rules and make non-systematic decisions.

Below we will cover how to prepare for this event and manage it objectively.

It’s key to understand that emotion can never be eliminated from your trading, that isn’t the goal and is not achievable.

The best traders in the world have made millions from one setup.

The setup? A breakout from a base.

But what do these bases have in common & what should you be looking for?

Here are the most important characteristics of a proper base, broken down one by one 🧵👇

By the end of this thread, you will:

✅Be able to identify the main characteristics of a proper base
✅Understand subtle clues of accumulation
✅Have access to 20+ real world examples

Let's get started! 👇

Proper bases all have the following characteristics:

▪️ Shallow Base Depths
▪️ Prior Uptrend of at least 20%
▪️ Early Stage Base
▪️ Daily & Weekly Accumulation Signatures
▪️ Relative Strength Periods

Follow along as we break down each aspect in greater detail below 👍

#1: Shallow Base Depths

Base depth is a key component of a proper base.

We measure a base's depth from the absolute peak to the absolute low.

Institutions are the major base builders in the market, & the shallower the base, the stronger the institutional hold in the name.

Here are some good criteria to keep in mind when analyzing bases:

< 20-30% off the highs = best
< 30-40% off the highs = good
< 40-50% off the highs = acceptable under certain circumstances
> 50%+ off the highs = avoid (with exception to some younger IPO names)

The market’s best investors have made millions from the simple saying:

“Buy right, sit tight”

Sounds simple - but what does “buying right” even mean?

By the end of this thread, you'll know how to:

1. Build an objective list of buy criteria
2. Have 10+ real world examples to study
3. Increase your win rate.
4. Increase your profitability

Let's dive in!

Buy Rule #1: The General market must be in an uptrend.

3 out of every 4 stocks follow the market trend both to the upside and to the downside.

This means that if you are buying a breakout in a downtrend, it already has a 75% chance of failing!

It doesn't matter if the stock is in a leading group with an impressive RS line and strong fundamental story.

At the end of the day, market direction is the MOST important factor!

My dad led an organization of over 300,000 employees.

When I took on my biggest marketing & events team to date (35 employees) I asked him how the *heck* he did it. Here's what he said and what helped me every day. 🧵

Remember you're leading all the employees under you, but you're not *managing* them all. You're managing your direct reports, which should be 5-7 individuals max. Focus on them.

When you interact with the employees you don't manage directly, get to know them as people first, that'll be the most valuable information in leading them. Remembering everything you learn about them is hard, but doing so will make you a superhero.

If you're not going to empower the managers under you, why do you have them? If you see room for improvement, let the manager know and let them make the change on their teams and come to you with questions/concerns. This will save you SO much time.

If you're the smartest person in any room - you're doing it wrong. As a leader, your job is bringing together the best people to get the job done - your skillset is identifying those people, not being one of them.

Yantrodharaka Anjaneya Temple, Hampi, Karnataka.

This temple dedicated to pawanputra Hanuman, near the banks of Tungabhadra river was built by dwaita philosopher and rajguru of the Vijayanagar empire, Sri Vyasaraja around +500 years ago.


:It is only in this temple that Hanuman appears in a prayer position. In this image, Bhagwan Hanuman’s crown has been formed by his tail.12 monkeys have been carved around this amulet.


:They represent the 12 days Sri Vyasaraja prayed to Hanuman ji. Each monkey holds the tail of the monkey in front of him but is facing backward. Seed syllables have also been carved around the amulet.


:It is believed that Sri Vyasaraja used to draw a picture of lord Hanuman here on the rocks before offering prayers using charcoal and the sketch disappeared after prayers.This incidence happened for 12 days in a row until he pleaded to bhagwan to appear in front of him.


On the 12th day, Hanuman ji appeared in front of Sri Vyasaraja and blessed him. Hanuman asked Sri Vyasaraja to constrain him in a hexagonal amulet & install him in that place.

A #story from #Thiruvilayadal puranam-one of divine leelas of Bhagwan Shiva

#threadseries #Madurai

Story 16- it is about how Bhagwan Shiva explained the meaning of Vedas to the Rishis.

வேதத்துக்குப் பொருள் அருளிச் செய்த படலம்


Once there was a great deluge,everything in the world was destroyed.All lifeforms that existed got perished.Afterwards ,due to Bhagwan Shiva creation started.Then from Bhagwan Shiv ji's mouth-birth of 🕉 OM- Pranavam happened.From Pranavam,4 vedas appeared. Rishis learned them.

Many Rishis in Naimisharanya learned Vedas&recited them but they didn't understand the meaning&essence of Vedas. They were worried as they couldn't find any guru who can teach them the meaning of Vedas.That time,Rishi Arabhatar visited them.Rishis told him about need their worry.

Rishi Arabhatar told them that Bhagwan Shiva has given Vedas &he would be grateful enough to teach the meaning as well.But for that rishis have to rigorous penance at a sacred place.Also told them to go to Sundareswarar temple in Madurai to do tapas in front of Dakshinamurthy.

Assured them that Dakshinamurthy himself will come & teach them.Rishis proceeded to Madurai & started their tapas in front of Dakshinamurthy sannidhi for almost a year starting from Karthigai month pournami to next year Karthigai month pournami following all rituals..annadan

RISHI BHRINGI AND ARDHA-NAREESHWAR SHIVA

Rishi Bhringi was a devoted bhakt of Mahadev. However, in his devotion to Shiva, he ignored Mata Parvati.

Once, he visited Kailasha along with other Rishis. All the Rishis did parikrama of Shiva and Parvati both except Rishi Bhringi.


The same situation continued whenever Rishi Bhringi visited Kailasha. Mata Parvati decided to teach him that Shiva and Parvati are one and inseparable.
So on one such visit, Mata Parvati sat on the left lap of Mahadev when Rishi Bhringi came.


Seeing this, Rishi Bhringi took the form of a bee(some say bird) and did pradakshina/ parikrama only around Shiva’s head and ignored Ma Parvati.
Angered Mata took away the Shakti from his body. Rishi lost his blood and flesh and was left with a bare skeletal form.


Seeing him in such a situation where he was unable to support himself, Shiva granted a third leg to him.
Shiva then fused one half of his body with that of Ma Parvati and appeared as Ardha Nareeshwar.
Rishi Bhringi finally realised that Shiv and Shakti are one and the same.

THE LESSER KNOWN MAHARANA OF MEWAR:RANA KUMBHA
Kumbalgarh Fort is one of most spectacular sites of India,atop a hill abt 3600ft above sea lvl in the https://t.co/LkjmzzBhE2's second largest wall is surrounding it.A fort wall second only to Great wall of China,still not so famous.


This longest wall of India stretches to almost 36Km and encompasses a few hills, many step wells and over 360 temples and palaces. Birth place of the Great Maharana Pratap, this fort is named after another Great Maharana of Mewar, who is not given his due in the History.


Builder of many architectural marvels like the Kumbhalgarh Fort, an erudite scholar, a patron of arts, music, culture & a great warrior was the Great Maharana Kumbha. Yet we don't know much about him. Let's get to know him a little.


Maharana Kumbha was the undefeated King of Mewar from 1433-1468CE.He never lost any battles &kept Mewar out of the reach of Islamic Invaders till the time he was alive. Born on Makar Sakranti to Maharana Mokal & Saubhagya Devi, Rana Kumbha was only 13 when he ascended the throne.


His father was killed by his own relatives in a political conspiracy. He was a powerful King about 8ft tall &charismatic personality,a hardcore Hindu Rajput who could shed his life for Hindu honour without thinking twice.He was an ardent skillful warrior who never lost a battle.

Did you know?

When Saudi Arabia's King visited India in 1955, PM Nehru ordered all the Hindu Temples and Idols of Hindu Deities that came in Saudi King's way to be covered up.
Our temples are the architectural marvels in their own league.


Each of our temples tells the story of our rich history and cultural heritage. Was Nehru that ashamed of his own nation's heritage that he had to cover them up or there was some other reason? The answer would be best known to him only.

PM Nehru invited the then Saudi King Saud bin Abdul Aziz to India who accepted the invitation and planned a 17 day long official visit to India in 1955. Saudi King had brought a large delegation with him and he had to visit various Indian cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Agra,


Aligarh, Shimla, Mysore and Varanasi. However, when Saudi King reached Varanasi, Nehru ordered to cover all the temples and Idols with curtains that came in the way of the Royal Convoy. During his stay in Varanasi, Govt buildings were painted with the words "Kalma Tayyiba".


'Kalma Tayyiba' means 'There is not God but only Allah and Mohammed is his messenger'. In addition to it, Pooja and Aartis were also stopped at temples. I can call it the appeasement politics of the highest order and Nehru was indeed the greatest appeaser of all times.
