This thread will help you to understand the index funds really well. If you want more of such threads in future,do comment the topic you want me to cover and don't forget to RETWEET! Let's start :

Who started it?
John Bogle, commonly referred to as Jack, is known as The Father of Index Investing and The Father of Index Funds. Bogle was born in Montclair, New Jersey on May 8, 1929.

What was the first index fund?
After graduation, Bogle went to work for Wellington Management from 1951 to 1974, but was fired because of a merger decision he made. In 1974, he found the Vanguard Group Inc., and in 1976 he introduced the first retail index fund the Vanguard 500

Why should we trust Bogle and not telegram rockets?
Although Bogle was initially mocked for his introduction of the index fund, he proved to be a true visionary and was even named as one of the “World’s 100 Most Powerful and Influential People” by Time Magazine in 2004

What is Vanguard's position right now?
Vanguard has grown to become one of the world’s largest investment management companies, with more than five trillion in global assets under management. Although Mr. Bogle died in January of 2019, his philosophy of index investing is ALIVE.

This thread is about the top reasons why most traders fail. If you want more finance and business related threads on regular basis,don't forget to retweet and share with your friends.

1. Negligence of risk management
While we can't foresee what the business sectors will do before long, hours, or days, however we do have full power over our danger levels at some random time. Risk management not just includes stop loss but also avoiding unnecessary trades.

2. Not having it planned out
A philosophy, or set of rules, is necessary. The business sectors can be tumultuous and confounding, particularly for somebody without a particular game plan that can be utilized over and over. Hence,planning essentially is going to help in any case.

3. Wanting to be always right
Numerous unpracticed informal investors center a lot around their triumphant rate. There will be times when you'll question your trading abilities, or even think whether trading is the correct occupation for you. No one is right always,cut losses.

4. Bad risk-to-reward ratio
There are two reasons traders end up with a poor risk-to-reward ratio:
a. They don't have an exit plan and rather essentially respond to the market without doing maths.

b. They can't hold their winners… yet they hold their losers.

Thread on 'no stop loss', 'adjustments' and 'Risk'
----------------------------------------------------

Wanted to share my thoughts on this topic for a long time but this email sent by someone yday woke me up from slumber

Pls read the email 1st before delving into thread

(1/n)

In the past 1-2 years, there has been a sudden surge of traders who just talk about theta decay, option selling, adjustments and stuff like that..

It is all fair as long as the trader knows what he's doing. But the reality is far from what we see/perceive...

(2/n)

Many of these folks were told that one can 'adjust' their way out of any situation. Any sane options trader know that you cannot come out of any situation by adjustment

One of my friend used to do that(he is famous in options selling desi fintwit) for a long time until..

(3/n)

..he realized that one cannot possibly do that and its gonna burn him one day. He's pretty smart and hence, he put a portfolio level SL & when that hits, he will stop dancing, gets out and calls it a day

So, risk is managed at account level and he is quite clear about it

(4/n)

Unfortunately, 1000s of traders who does option selling(with adjustment) dont have this risk mgmt in place.

They think (i dont know if i had to call it false confidence or ignorance) their skills in 'adjusting' will take them ashore 😅

There is no shortage of takes about what's going on with Gamestop (and other surging stocks), Robinhood and Reddit's r/wallstreetbets, many of them contradictory - at least on the face of them. But I think it's possible for most of these takes to be right. Here's how.

1/

First you need to understand the underlying mechanics of the story. Stock markets are fundamentally a way of making bets, including bets on the outcome of other peoples' bets, and bets on the outcomes of THOSE bets.

2/

All this complexity creates lots of exploitable opportunities. Some of these opportunities are considered legitimate and are given respectable names like "arbitrage." Others are considered illegitimate, and are called disreputable things like "stock manipulation."

3/

A hypothetical Martian observing all this through a telescope could not tell you which kinds of bets were honest and which were dishonest, because the difference isn't about any objective standard, but rather, about power.

4/

The strategies of powerful people are legit, while the strategies of their would-be dethroners are not legit. Sometimes, even outright frauds are OK if they're done by people with enough power.

5/

ChartIQ charts on Kite web just got an upgrade with custom timeframe charts, new indicators, backtesting from charts, and much more.

Here’s how you can switch to the new version of ChartIQ: https://t.co/rhXrQ330G7

A thread on all the new features 👇

Custom timeframe charts

Charts with timeframes of 75 and 125 minutes were amongst the most popular feature requests. With the custom timeframe feature, you can now not only access 75 and 125-minute charts, but you can also do so for any timeframe of your choice.

Download historical data in CSV

You can now download chart data to Excel to run your own analyses.

Backtesting from charts

@StreakTech allows you to create and backtest trading strategies without any coding. Streak is now integrated with Kite charts. Clicking on the Streak icon will start a backtest of widely used strategies with the indicators applied on the charts.

Shortcut keys for various functions

Chart shortcuts are now available on ChartIQ 8. Shortcuts can be used to quickly perform actions such as invoking the order window, accessing drawing tools, zooming, etc.

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
