@jayleejanet @canva @MelanieCanva So much boldness. Truly impressive story.

The Finger Names in ‘Sanskrit’ are, Thumb is called ‘Angushtha’, Pointing finger is called ‘Tarjani’, Middle finger is ‘Madhyama’, Ring finger is ‘Anamika’ and the Smallest finger is called ‘Kanishtika’.

Mudras are hand gestures used in yoga and meditation, which mean ‘mark’ or ‘seal’ in Sanskrit. In the Mudra philosophy, it is believed that our 5 fingers correspond to the 5 elements of the universe -

Thumb - fire, Index finger Varuna (Air) Middle finger- Akasha (Space), Ring finger - Prithvi (Earth), Little Finger -Jal(Water).

Practitioners believe that when the finger representing a particular element is brought into contact with the thumb, that element is brought into

balance, creating a stabilizing effect on the entire body. Mudras start electromagnetic currents in the body, create balance and promote health. Regular practice of these mudras can help create a balance between these five elements in the body.

Nano Course On Python For Trading
==========================
Module 3-B (Bonus)

In this Bonus Module, I will attempt to teach you how to write an algorithm to create a Stock Screener based on @markminervini 's Trend Template from his book Trade Like A Stock Market Wizard.

+

Some of the readers asked about how to create a stock screener. So, I thought before jumping to the cloud and deploying an algorithm on the cloud, I should address this. Whatever algorithm we develop in this module, we will deploy it on the cloud in Module number 4.

+

Pre-requisites:

• Read Module 2, so that you can download the historical data. A small assignment for you - write code to automate EOD data download and save it in the folder. We need to have the latest data for the screener. Hint: set end_date =

The rules are:

• The LTP of the stock > 150 SMA & 200 SMA
• The 150 SMA > 200 SMA
• The 200 SMA must be greater than 200 SMA 30 days ago.
• The 50 SMA > 150 SMA & 50 SMA > 200 SMA
• The LTP > 50 SMA
• The LTP must be greater than 30% of 52-Week Low

+

• The LTP is close to 25% of the 52-Week High
• The Relative Strength(RS) should be greater than 70

SMA = Simple Moving Average
LTP = Last Traded Price

Let's get started with its coding.

अट्ठारह पुराणों का संक्षिप्त परिचय

पुराण शब्द का अर्थ ही है प्राचीन कथा, पुराण विश्व साहित्य के सबसे प्राचीन ग्रँथ हैं, उन में लिखित ज्ञान और नैतिकता की बातें आज भी प्रासंगिक, अमूल्य तथा मानव सभ्यता की आधारशिला हैं..

वेदों की भाषा तथा शैली कठिन है, पुराण उसी ज्ञान के सहज तथा रोचक संस्करण हैं। उन में जटिल तथ्यों को कथाओं के माध्यम से समझाया गया है, पुराणों का विषय नैतिकता, विचार, भूगोल, खगोल, राजनीति, संस्कृति, सामाजिक परम्परायें, विज्ञान तथा अन्य बहुत से विषय हैं,..

विशेष तथ्य यह है कि पुराणों में देवी-देवताओं, राजाओं, और ऋषि-मुनियों के साथ साथ जन साधारण की कथाओं का भी उल्लेख किया गया हैं, जिस से पौराणिक काल के सभी पहलूओं का चित्रण मिलता है।

महृर्षि वेदव्यासजी ने अट्ठारह पुराणों का संस्कृत भाषा में संकलन किया है, ब्रह्मदेव, श्री हरि विष्णु भगवान् तथा भगवान् महेश्वर उन पुराणों के मुख्य देव हैं, त्रिमूर्ति के प्रत्येक भगवान स्वरूप को छः पुराण समर्पित किये गये हैं, इन अट्ठारह पुराणों के अतिरिक्त सोलह उप-पुराण भी हैं।

पुराणों का संक्षिप्त परिचय:

1. #ब्रह्म_पुराण

ब्रह्मपुराण सब से प्राचीन है, इस पुराण में दो सौ छियालीस अध्याय तथा चौदह हजार श्र्लोक हैं, इस ग्रंथ में ब्रह्माजी की महानता के अतिरिक्त सृष्टि की उत्पत्ति, गंगा अवतरण तथा रामायण और कृष्णावतार की कथायें भी संकलित हैं,..

I'm 31 years old.

10 years ago when I was 21, I had less than $1,000 in my bank.

If you told me I would cross my first $1 mil at age 29, I wouldn't believe you.

But it's not all about $$.

Here's the top lessons I've learnt about habits, happiness, life and death:

1. Wake up early

I learnt this 4 years ago after listening to Jocko Willink.

I’m not a morning person. Until now I'm still not.

But I force myself to rise early most days.

Knowing you’ve accomplished more than others by the morning is a good feeling.

It sets you up right.

2. Lift weights

Everyone in a competitive field should engage in some form of intense physical activity.

For me I lift weights 5-6x a week. But it could be any sport.

It teaches you valuable lessons like:

- showing up consistently
- putting in the reps
- pushing past boredom

3. Have dreams

I recall watching Tony Robbins when I was 16 years old, and that left an impression on me.

Seeing him speak and inspire others from stage, that’s what I wanted to do.

It gave my life a new purpose beyond video games...

I told all my friends about it.

Anyone who would listen, I publicly declared it.

Probably annoyed many of them.

Looking back, I'm blessed to have found what I wanted to do at an early age.

It gave me clarity in choosing my career, and where I chose to invest my time.

Today we will discuss the shroud of Turin and how NASA is one of the most corrupt organizations on earth. This is my most important thread to date, and it will be long

My journey to Christianity from hardcore atheist materialism began in one innocuous moment 4 years ago. I was walking to the bars with an American friend of mine when he casually said “dude, I’m in this class right, and the professor told us that the shroud of Turin is real."

It was a weird sensation. For a split second I experienced this inexplicable fear, could the Jesus stuff possibly be real? I quickly brushed it off but remained curious. 4 years later that professor he told me about is one of my closest friends.

To cut to the chase, the guy is the smartest man I’ve ever met. Ex priest, PHD in Classical Philology and something like 7 other degrees. Speaks like 8 languages. Basically, he studied under one of the heads of STURP.

STURP, or the Shroud of Turin Research Project, was a team of scientists who studied the Shroud in the 70s and 80s. Their findings were astounding and yet largely ignored. The final report concluded:

A simple Trading system with 2 #movingaverages 13 & 21Sma

What signal it gave today ?

"Sell triggered @ 17365 When 1st 15 min. candle
closed below 13 & 21Sma"

And, then #Nifty fell to 17267, almost 💯points

My experiences in trading through various international locha events, high VIX and various events.
A thread

I follow the news, but never think of myself smart enough to predict what is finally going to happen. I am not a geopolitical expert, smarter brains than me are analyzing and acting on the news

Their actions are reflected on price, volume, OI. Following the data keeps me at par with the latest news

Be ready to cut your existing positions ruthlessly when data changes, be ready to absorb the loss and get out of the position. Never hold onto with hope.
Never works

Reduce trading volumes. Higher the volatility, lower the trade size.
Use lower volumes and bigger stops to counter the volatility

Evil eye 🧿 or nazar dosh - weak moon and strong 6H/8H placements along with badhak connection can make one more susceptible to this. One can take a lemon 🍋 and move it 11 times anti-clockwise over the head. Then burn it . Do it on Tuesday or Saturday.
