Grab a cup of coffee, in this thread I will explain

1. What a cash flow statement is?
2. What does it tell you about a business?
3. How to analyze one?

Examples included various Indian companies.

Let's dive right in.

Cash flow statement is a financial statement published by a company every quarter and annually.

It comprises of all transactions that a company does in cash or cash equivalents.

*Cash equivalents are other liquid assets that can easily be sold for immediate cash.

This is what a typical cash flow statement looks like

Cash flow statement is important as it gives you transparency into how the company utilizes its cold hard cash generated by the business.

Because we are following actual cash, there are very few accounting tricks that can be employed in this section.

A cash flow statement has three main parts:

1. Cash Flow from Operations (CFO)
2. Cash Flow from Investing (CFI)
2. Cash Flow from Financing (CFF)

Let's dive into CFO in detail.

*CFI and CFF will be covered in a separate thread

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

2) Trading View or Kite app

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

3) Icharts

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

4) QuantsApp

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

5) Spider

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

(1/3)

I am using only one indicator in the chart.
i.e DC(20) = Donchain Channel
I use 3 min chart and the DC period is 20, so DC high is basically the last 1 hour high & DC low is the last 1 hour low.
The middle line is the median of high and low.

(2/3)

Donchian channels are mainly used to identify the breakout of nifty/BNF.
We can take directional bias based on the indicator.
If nifty is breaking DC high, can take bullish view.
if it is breaking DC down, can take bearish view.
if it is in between, can trade range-bound.

(3/3)

We can monitor nifty/banknifty futures with volume along with DC.
If the volume is 1.5 to 2 times the average volume and if DC high/low is taken out then it can be a strong bullish/bearish signal.
