Thread on sideways market:

Sideways price action or consolidation is a phase where institutional players are silently building their positions transacting in smaller quantities.

(1/n)

What we need to understand is that big players have huge amounts of money and one major disadvantage of having such large cap is that they cannot transact in big quantities without being spotted (aka volumes)

In order to minimize this disadvantage to an extent, they will begin building their positions with many smaller blocks of orders to look like multiple small players and to not alert other market participants much.

This kind of price action does not result in major market moves since moving markets requires aggressive buying/selling at market prices.

Instead it results in a sideways price action.

When their positions are built, aggressive activity begins which results in markets moving in a trend. First positions are built slowly and then markets are moved aggressively in the favorable direction to get profitable.

When markets are in a strong trend, there will not be much time to enter large positions since prices move quite fast. Hence, this process.

When you see sideways action, do not think of it as boring but remind yourself that market is preparing itself for the next leg of move.

As a retail trader, best approach is to not get caught in this area and wait for the sideways range to be broken to get to know the direction of the trend.

For clarity, even within the consolidation zone, a retail trader can know the areas where highest volumes are transacted by institutions using "Volume Profile" and see how price action is at those clusters.

Trading decisions can be taken when price BO/BD such areas of VP.

Institutions can hide anything but not their volumes. It will emerge sooner than later.

Hope you found it useful. If yes, please Re-tweet for max reach.

How to analyze Nifty using various types of volume profile:

A thread \U0001f9f5

— Trader Abhishek (@KillerTrader_) September 5, 2022

We had discussed that a "p" shaped profile and close at highs indicates longs are in control of the market.

It also indicates high chances of uptrend continuation next day.

But

(2/n)

How to trade a failure of trend continuation? Yesterday, we saw a "P" shape profile in Nifty and close at highs.

But we failed to continue upmove today.

(3/n)

We opened positive but the opening breakout not sustaining is first cue to understand that bulls are lacking initiative to push prices up further.

(4/n)

For confirmation, one can use orderflow as well to see real time supply demand flowing into the market.

At open today, we saw fresh sellers coming in a bullish opening.

Improve your volume analysis using volume profile.

A thread on volume profile 🧵

Traditional volume indicator is widely used by almost every trader.

But it has a handicap: It shows volumes transacted from a time POV but not the price POV.

(1/n)

This is what traditional volume analysis states. But in reality, how effective it is?

(2/n)

It simply shows volume from a timeframe basis. 5 mins volumes on 5 mins TF and so on.

But, is there a different way to read volumes from a price basis? Like, where did largest buying or selling by big players come in?

Read to find more.

(3/n)

This is where volume profile comes in. To put it in the simplest way, volume profile shows volume from a price perspective thus enabling a trader to identify where largest trading has occurred.

But how does this help a trader?

(4/n)

If you can spot the areas where large volumes are being traded, you can spot areas of interest and effectively find areas of support and resistance.

Of course, it is volume that drives the price.

How to build a successful trading mindset?

A thread 🧵

There is a lot of talk about trading mindset or psychology. But what exactly is trading mindset?

#StockMarket #trading

(1/n)

Trading mindset is the state your mind is in, the thoughts that flow through you and the basis on which you take make various decisions about trading.

(2/n)

More often than not, we know there are certain rules to this business, we know the rules we are supposed to follow to stand a chance to be successful in this business, but we are not able to.

Why?

(3/n)

The problems most traders face are more or less similar but the methods or approach to solve it is different.

Because though the problems are similar, what triggers an individual to go down the wrong way or repeat the same mistake is different.

(4/n)

So in this case, inward reflection to identify the key triggers and working on them with positive affirmations is required.

Thread on fibs:

Part 1 - Fib extensions:

The way I use fibs and extensions differ from conventional textbook methods.

Fib extensions are ratios beyond 1 used to project targets for profit booking.

(1/n)

The main purpose of fib extensions is to forecast probable (emphasis on both words) areas of profit booking/correction in a script trading in unchartered waters (ATHs and lifetime lows)

(2/n)

Basically, they are used to find Ghost supports/resistances.

Fibonacci is a price based and a relative time based tool.

Meaning, the proper way to use this tool largely depends on the swing markers you use relative to the TF of your analysis and trading.

(3/n)

The primary ratios I use as part of extensions are 1.382 and 1.618.

Example 1 for broader price range swing:

(4/n)

Example for minor swing:

If you really want to make MONEY in markets:-

Instead of finding SUPPORTS to BUY in Bearish Markets, try to SELL near RESISTANCE in PULL BACKS.

Instead of finding RESISTANCE to SELL in Bullish markets, try to BUY near SUPPORT in PULL BACKS.

You are all set to make MONEY!!!

FEAR - It’s the re-experience of failure in advance.

Many traders face the issue of Not entering in trades because of fear.

A thread on How to pull the trigger when the opportunity knocks.

Lets First start from knowing the cause of this "FEAR" of pulling the trigger.

A traders goes through many phases before becoming Profitable.

The first phase is the " APUN HI BHAGWAN HAI" phase-

When we first begin Trading, we don’t know any concepts, we don’t know about the risks , the dangers.

So we start trading, and like most guys by beginners luck we start making good, we start to calculate how much money we will make in next 1yr, 5 yrs, Greed start to Hop in.

We get introduced to Various instruments, F&O, LEVERAGE.

We take big positions as we don’t have any FEAR cause we haven't seen those bad phases yet.

Now we get the Big blow, account down -50%, or in many cases wiped out.

The first phase ends here.

Now we know How the market can kick our ass, we now know the risk that comes with those big positions.

"THE LEARNING PHASE"-

Now we know that we were just lucky initially and now we have to learn why we get those losses, so we start learning concepts , fundamental, Technicals.

A thread on Pyramiding-

What is pyramiding?

In pyramiding we add on to a position when it is going in our direction. Its basically opposite of averaging down.

MOMENTUM - Success of a pyramiding trade depend on this ingredient, the more the momentum the better pyramiding.

There are many way to enter and exit in a stock-

1. ALL IN - ALL OUT
2. ALL IN - SCALE OUT
3. SCALE IN - SCALE OUT
4. SCALE IN - ALL OUT ( I use this one)

Why traders use Pyramiding ?

More than anything what pyramiding do is keep your losers small and your winners - Big.

Pyramiding in my view keeps your dd smaller as your losers are very small because you enters with only a fraction of what you would have entered Normally.

BUT, not necessarily it should be more profitable than ALL IN- ALL OUT, Where one enters all at once and sell all at once.

HOW TO DO PYRAMIDING-

There are various methods which are used by traders for pyramiding ,while keeping the basic concept of adding onto the strength.

1. PYRAMIDING AND TRAILING BASED UPON STRUCTURE-

In this method we scale in or pyramid the qty when the stock breaks above

1/ I used to think that the biggest gains had to come from stocks that no one knew about

One of the harder lessons for me to internalize has been that oftentimes, unknown stocks stay unknown for a reason and you can still earn attractive returns from stocks everyone's bullish on

2/ While I’m not contrarian just for the sake of being contrarian, I do think it’s important to question everything.

When I started out, I would buy "quality" stocks like FB or TSLA without doing much research.

But an opinion being consensus doesn’t make it the truth.

3/ So owning the most popular stocks made me nervous. If a winner is so obvious then either it's priced in or maybe I'm missing something?

I preferred owning stocks that others weren’t aware of or were bearish on for the wrong reasons (more room for upside surprises).

4/ But there are degrees

Despite being widely popular, stocks like SHOP have been some of the best performers because they exceeded even the most bullish projections

And some stocks like TSLA are partly popular because they are great consumer products which is an important sign

5/ On the other hand, while the biggest winners can be found in micro-caps, many of which started out very undervalued with no analyst coverage, on average, they tend to underperform larger caps

Picking out the big winners earlier on is very difficult and there is no set formula

Right, screw it. Here's a thread on *that* FBLive by Alex Cairnie about #Govanhill. Lets do a watch-through shall we? (Mind, I'm a resident of Govanhill, and a sociologist. I'm also 5'3, and a visibly queer woman so if half his claims are true I should be living in terror)

00:30: Welcomes viewers and uses points out that his videos are only getting attention b/c they're 'horrific'. Directs folk to his Youtube page. So already clout hunting.

1:08: "I've been warned to stay out of Govanhill. I'm a marked man" (proceeds to use a beanie as a disguise)

1:30 "Laughing and joking aside, here's somebodys front garden." Proceeds to show litter and claim its thrown from windows and this is 'common'. I know a handful of streets with litter issues like this, but its neither common nor unique to #govanhill and other deprived areas.

2:10 "Don't be under any illusion I'm only showing you the bad bits" - only shows you the bad bits.

3:45: He's had offers of help, but hes said no because hes not responsible for 'anybody elses safety' Good lord.

5:01: "Its not that bad. But its not all good either" -Correct

6:00: TW: child abuse - He starts claiming to have been contacted by a health professional and told about child abuse 'in the area'. Huge ethical issues here as the 'professional' who has 'been in the game a long time' is reporting to Facebook Dude and not authorities.

Some people really benefit from hearing advice that everyone knows, for the same reason we keep schools open despite every subject in them having been taught before.

In that spirit, here's some quick Things Many People Find Too Obvious To Have Told You Already.

Your idea is not valuable, at all. All value is in the execution. You think you are an exception; you are not. You should not insist on an NDA to talk about it; nobody serious will engage in contract review over an idea, and this will mark you as clueless.

Technologists tend to severely underestimate the difficulty and expense of creating software, especially at companies which do not have fully staffed industry leading engineering teams ("because software is so easy there, amirite guys?")

Charge more. Charge more still. Go on.

The press is a lossy and biased compression of events in the actual world, and is singularly consumed with its own rituals, status games, and incentives. The news necessarily fails to capture almost everything which happened yesterday. What it says is important usually isn't.

Companies find it incredibly hard to reliably staff positions with hard-working generalists who operate autonomously and have high risk tolerances. This is not the modal employee, including at places which are justifiably proud of the skill/diligence/etc of their employees.

“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

"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

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. […]
