It is both the toughest of lifeās paths and the most rewarding.

The spiritual path, a thread:
It is both the toughest of lifeās paths and the most rewarding.
All journeys are unique.
But all lead to the same place: total love and oneness.
All are a part of You.
One without the other leads to imbalance.
Recognize and nurture all aspects of You.
Iāll show you how.
Your mind is trying to process all available information to protect you.
The problem: it gets tripped up.
We live in a world of constant fear-based stimulation.
Most of modern society is designed to feed and profit off of your mind.
This is effectively what meditation is and why itās so powerful.
Some meditators use a mantra so as to have one repetitive thing to repeat.
This helps unwind cyclical thoughts.
It breaks the mind free from itās shackles.
It stops the churn.
Expand your knowledge (nonfiction)
Acquire wisdom (spiritual texts)
Learn new skills (music, sports, etc)
Gain exposure (documentaries)
All help strengthen and expand the mind.
Your mind is not impenetrable; itās just as vulnerable as your body and spirit.
Donāt feed your mind junk food e.g. drama seriesās, mindless videosā¦
Anything that keeps you caught in a loop is designed to consume you.
Donāt let it!
Our bodies are not just sacks of meat and bones.
Theyāre hyper intelligent and have more going on than we can imagine.
One might argue that most trauma in the body is of direct relation to the mind and spirit.
It is our physical manifestation of our spiritual state.
Yoga has been around for thousands of years.
Why has it stood the test of time?
Because of its power.
Yoga will unlock your body, which unlocks your mind and spirit.
A flexible body means flexible thoughts.
Alcohol, drugs, caffeine, pesticides.
To the body, all are toxic.
We have somehow decided that they are āokā and normal.
Iām not sure who decided that, but count me out.
Your body wants nutrients from nature.
As fresh as possible with as few chemicals as possible.
Plants are great.
And, meat? Ask:
Are you eating an animal that bathed in fear and chemicals its whole life?
Or one that was healthy and happy?
This concept may sound unfamiliar.
Because for much of society, it is.
Since we were kids, we were told to repress our spirit and rely on the mind.
Spirit is your intuitions, feelings, emotions.
Itās your heart.
Just like your body and mind, the spirit needs to be fed!
Whenās the last time you blasted music?
Danced in the rain?
Acted silly and ridiculous?
All these things feed your spirit, keeping it alive and healthy.
Repressed trauma is something we all have.
Keeping it repressed eats us on the inside.
Getting it out heals.
Meditative writing, therapy, counselingā¦
All help heal.
Your gut is your guide.
If something feels off, donāt ignore that feeling.
Figure out why.
To build your relationship with your spirit, start listening to it.
The more you practice, the clearer it will start communicating.

Decoded his way of analysis/logics for everyone to easily understand.
Have covered:
1. Analysis of volatility, how to foresee/signs.
2. Workbook
3. When to sell options
4. Diff category of days
5. How movement of option prices tell us what will happen
1. Keeps following volatility super closely.
Makes 7-8 different strategies to give him a sense of what's going on.
Whichever gives highest profit he trades in.
2. Theta falls when market moves.
Falls where market is headed towards not on our original position.
3. If you're an options seller then sell only when volatility is dropping, there is a high probability of you making the right trade and getting profit as a result
He believes in a market operator, if market mover sells volatility Sarang Sir joins him.
4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega
Sell when Vega is falling rather than for theta decay. You won't be trapped and higher probability of making profit.

I am quite different from your style. I follow the market's volatility very closely. I have mock positions in 7-8 different strategies which allows me to stay connected. Whichever gives best profit is usually the one i trade in.

Anilji most of the time these days Theta only falls when market moves. So the Theta actually falls where market has moved to, not where our position was in the first place. By shifting we can come close to capturing the Theta fall but not always.

This week has been great so far. The main aim is to be in the right side of the volatility, rest the market will reward.

4. Theta decay vs Fall in vega

There is a difference between theta decay & fall in vega. Decay is certain but there is no guaranteed profit as delta moves can increase cost. Fall in vega on the other hand is backed by a powerful force that sells options and gives handsome returns. Our job is to identify them.

To people who are under the impression that you can get rich quickly by working on an app, here are the stats for https://t.co/az8F12pf02
š ~12000 vistis
āļø 109 transactions
š° 353ā¬ profit (285 after tax)
I have spent 1.5 months on this app. You can make more $ in 2 days.
š¤·āāļø
I'm still happy that I launched a paid app bcs it involved extra work:
- backend for processing payments (+ permissions, webhooks, etc)
- integration with payment processor
- UI for license activation in Electron
- machine activation limit
- autoupdates
- mailgun emails
etc.
These things seemed super scary at first. I always thought it was way too much work and something would break. But I'm glad I persisted. So far the only problem I have is that mailgun is not delivering the license keys to certain domains like https://t.co/6Bqn0FUYXo etc. š
omg I just realized that me . com is an Apple domain, of course something wouldn't work with these dicks
