As traders, we primarily compete with ourselves to honor our rules and execute our edges.

With money on the line, trading is an incredibly strenuous mental game where emotions can flare up leading to costly mistakes

The Importance of Mastering Trading Psychology.

(Thread) 👇

 Trading Psychology or the Mental Game of Trading encompasses solving problems regarding emotions such as Greed, Fear, Anger, Confidence and Discipline.
Contrary to popular belief, having a strong mental game does not mean eradicating emotion.

Instead, it means learning to transcribe your emotions into data that you can use and analyze to connect past states to current ones.
Trading is a performance sport.

We execute at our highest ability when we can use emotions as fuel and for intuition but are not so dominating that they cloud our judgment.
Think about the best athletes in the world : Kobe, Jordan, Lebron, Messi, Ronaldo, Federer, Nadal...

They compete with passion, emotion. This drives them and they are able to unlock their full potential.
Similarly, to trade at the best of your abilities, you need to learn how to manage and harness your emotions.

This involves developing awareness and techniques that address the root causes of emotions, preventing them from negatively impacting your trading.
To track your emotions, you are going to want to take notes during the trading day. This allows you to offload data and analyze it later.
Look for commonalities and patterns, just as you would if you were analyzing trade results.

You will find the same signs start to develop before you for instance experience tilt and enter a trade outside of your system.
Adding a mental game system to your existing process should unlock your trading potential.

It will allow you to build instincts, and overcome performance flaws.
Keep in mind, you need a strong existing trading system with well defined and effective edges to be successful in trading.

Mastering Trading Psychology can’t solve your trading problems alone, but it can take your existing performance to the next level.
A successful mental game trading system will help you trade with confidence.

It will also drastically improve your discipline & consistency.
If you are looking for a proven (no fluff) mental game system

A Guide to Position Sizing

--- Thread 🧵 ---

To perform in the market, position sizing needs to be the main focus.

This is what ultimately separates the good from the great.

It will make no difference on your account if you have a 100% gain in a name with only 1% of your equity.

It will make a huge difference on your account if you have a 100% gain in a name with 20%+ of your equity.

There are 2 consistent ways to position size in the markets 👇

1️⃣ Position Size Based on Risk
2️⃣ Position Size Based on Number of Edges

1️⃣ Position Size Based on Risk

Before you take a position in a stock, you must know how much you are willing to lose on a trade.

We recommend never risking more than 1% of your overall account equity on any single trade, especially if you are in the consistency phase.

10 Trading Tips for any strategy. (Thread)

1. Find a Trading Method That Fits Your Personality

Becoming a great trader is a process of self-discovery. It is very important to understand this from the get-go and start by finding a proven style, or methodology that jives with who you are.

2. Trade With The Trend

Did you know 3 out of every 4 stocks follow the direction of the general market? Anytime you are trading against the trend you are putting the odds heavily against yourself.

3. Stay With Your Trading Strategy After A Few Losing Trades

Next time you take a loss, try not to take it too personally. Sometimes you can do everything perfectly and you are still going to take a loss. That’s part of being a consistently successful trader.

4. Post Analysis Is The Secret To Success

By maintaining a trading journal and doing post-analysis, you can answer extremely important questions like…

What is working? What am I doing right?

What is not working? What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?

How To Find Market Leaders During Corrections (Thread)

Market pullbacks and corrections are a natural process that may feel painful at first, but they set the stage for new true market leaders to emerge.

During a pullback the first thing you want to do is protect your capital and manage risk. You should rank your holdings and cut the lowest quality first.

How to grade your holdings with @mwebster1971

Protecting your capital and naturally transitioning to higher cash levels keeps you focused and objective, allowing you to begin the fun part, the treasure hunt for the next uptrend’s golden opportunities.

During a correction, institutions take the market weakness as an opportunity to add to their highest conviction holdings. This support will show up in the price charts as stocks with promise buck the overall market downtrend.

What is an Optimal Buy Point? (thread)

Your results as a trader/investor boil down to three statistics

Average Gain - Average % gain on winning Trades
Average Loss -Average % gain on losing Trades
Batting Average - % of trades that are gains

Like in baseball, you can find incredible success in the stock market winning only a handful of times out of ten. In fact a system that is profitable or break even with only a 30-50% BA is more robust and consistent

To establish such as system you need to manage the risk reward relationship (Average gain/Average Loss) so that you can survive winning only 30% of the time.

(I promise this is getting to optimal buy points shortly)

You should shoot for at least a 2:1 gain/loss ratio. 3:1 is even better.

With a 2:1 ratio you can loss 2/3 of the time and break even. With a 3:1 ratio you can lose 75% of the time

What is the biggest challenge that traders face?

It's not the market. It's not the competition. The biggest challenge traders face is themselves.

That's why we've put together this list of five short lessons that will help you overcome your next trading obstacle:

1. You need to be disciplined enough to wait for the perfect opportunity.

Successful Traders:

❌ They don't force trades or take unnecessary risks.

✅ They wait patiently for the market to provide them with a high-probability setup before entering a trade.

2. You need to only take calculated risks.

Successful Traders:

❌ They don't take irrational risks or blindly follow the herd.

✅ They make calculated decisions based on their analysis and plan.

3. You must be able to accept losses.

Successful Traders:

❌ They don't try to avoid losses at all costs.

✅ They know that losses are a part of trading and accept them as part of the process.

4. You need to have a defined edge.

Successful Traders:

❌ They don't trade based on hope.

✅ They have a defined edge that they execute repeatedly.

BRAHMA VAIVARTA PURAN: IMPORTANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS.

This Puran introduces us to way of Vedas. On the request of Narad Muni Bhagwan Saavarni had preached this Puran. It is a summary of Dharma, Arth, Moksha etc.


Listening to this Puran one gets automatically attached to Vishnu and Shiva and realize that there is no difference between them. Vyasji divided this book into four parts. It has eighteen thousand shlokas. This whole book is in the form of dialogue between Suutji and Maharishi's.

The first part Brahmkhand, consists of Shrishti description. Here Shri is known as Para Brahma and description of Gokul is also mentioned, It also narrates the argument between Brahma and Narad in which both were defeated, and then Narad went to Shiva to attain more gyan.

Shivji advised him to go to Bhagwan Saavarni for this. Narad goes to Saavarni ashram to seek Knowledge and is totally amazed by the sorroundings.

Next is Prakriti khand which consists of dialogue between Narad and Saavarni where they discuss the

Importance of Shri Krishna through various stories. Then there is the discussion of Prakriti and its various hues. Listening to this gets you wealth.
Next is Ganesh Khand which describes the Punyak vrat done by Parvati ji. After this it narrates the birth of Kartikeya and Ganesh.

ARULMIGU SRI PARTHASARATHY SWAMY KSHETRAM, CHENNAI (TN)

Divya Desha where Perumal appears with moustache of a Sarathi (charioteer) to conduct Arjun’s Rath in Kurukshetra war.
Here, Venkatkrishna-Parthasarthy is present with his entire family.


He is flanked by Sri Rukmini, Sri Balarama, Satyaki, son Pradyumn and grandson Anirudha.
It is said that on the request of Raja Sumathirajan, Sri Perumal appeared and stayed here as Arjun’s charioteer (Partha-sarathi).


He is without chakra as he had promised not to wield weapons in Mahabharata war.
The face has scars caused by Bhishma’s arrows on Arjun. Prabhu took the arrows on himself to protect Arjun.


The Naivedyam offered here does not have spices. Ghee is used in it to cure Prabhu’s wounds. Sarkarai Pongal is famous here.

It is said that Rishi Bhrigu found Devi Lakshmi (as Vedvalli) in Alli flower in the mandir pushkarini. Later, Sri Ranganatha came here to marry her.

1) The Temple of the Divine Claudius was a vast temple complex on Rome's Caelian Hill, overlooking the valley that would later be occupied by the Colosseum. Though almost nothing now remains of the structure, its scale and grandeur once rivalled anything in the city.. #LostRome


2) The 'Claudium' was intended as a sacred complex to revere Claudius and the imperial cult. Construction began soon after the death and deification of the emperor in 54 AD, initiated by his widow Agrippina who was likely responsible for his supposed death by poisoning. #LostRome


3) The sprawling temple complex sat on a gigantic podium that spread across the Caelian Hill, measuring 180 x 200 metres; with towering retaining walls of travertine that raised the structure 20 metres above the valley below. #LostRome


4) The elevated sacred area was likely entered by steps facing the temple on the west side. The temple itself had a projecting hexastyle porch and was surrounded by gardens and a grand portico, probably the 'porticus Claudia' mentioned in Martial's 'On the Spectacles'. #LostRome


5) Statues of both Agrippina and Claudius’ ill-fated young son Britannicus, sculpted in sumptuous dark Egyptian greywacke, were discovered among the ruins on the Caelian Hill in 1651 – and had almost certainly been displayed in the temple precinct. #LostRome

In ancient times, our grandparents used to follow typical natural way of caring the needs of a child. All they used were more of natural products than chemical based for the growth of child.


One of major step followed was to feed Gurbach Jadd/ Vasa Kommu/ Acorus Calamus for initiating good speech ability in a child. This stem was needed to babies on Tuesdays and Sundays in mother's milk.

Vasa is feed to baby after the 1st bath on 12th day in week. Weekly only thrice it is fed and named as :

Budhwar - Budhi Vasa
Mangalwar - Vaak Vasa
Ravi Vaar - Aayush Vasa

This stem is burnt and rubbed against the grinding stone in mother's milk or warm water to get a paste


The procedure to make it is in the link

https://t.co/uo4sGp7mUm

It should not be given daily to the child. Other main benefits are

1. It clears the phlegm in child's throat caused due to continuous milk intake. It clears the tracts and breathing is effortless.
2. Digestion

For children who haven't got their speech and is delayed than usual should feed this vasa on these days in week atleast for 6months. Don't get carried away with this dialogue
"Some gain speech little late"
