Beg to differ, Nithin.
Accumulation of OI doesn’t give insight into market direction.
If anything, it gives insight into people’s perception of market direction.
OI is formed by a buyer and seller entering into contract.
Buyers tend to be directional traders, deep pocket
Tracking the accumulation of open interest (OI) at different strikes can give you insight into market directions. The idea traders have is that option writers have deeper pockets, and if OI is building up at certain strikes, they can act as support or resistance.

A bootstrapped company is incentivised to keep the valuation low by using lower end of the multiple range to enable Buyback at reasonable rates and usually done on TTM.
while a venture backed company tends to have the valuation higher by using higher end

My friend’s daughter is suffering from a unique condition, SMA. The only cure Zolgensma costs INR 16 crores. While the number is off putting to many people who would rather redirect the resources elsewhere. All Mihir is asking is we donate INR100/~$1.3/~£1.1 and share it forward.

There’s a growing sentiment that Indian Options volumes have peaked.
In view of the forthcoming tightening regulations from SEBI and exchanges, it will dip.

What the common folks should know, from today’s RBI meeting?
The interest rate at which RBI lends to Banks has gone up by 0.5%
This will mean interest rates on loans will likely jump up by the same or more depending on the type of loan

Consider the opportunity costs
1. You’re losing 2 days interest on 80% of your money every time you buy any stock.
2. On the days you’re struggling to size up due to available cash, you can buy 5x the cash with Kotak
3. Intraday Free works on cash too
#TradeFreePlan
At most discount brokers, one needs to pay 100% value upfront to buy stocks on delivery
At Kotak, We allow all clients to buy stocks basis margin(eg 20% of the value), and pay the balance two days later.
Rather with Rs 100, you can take delivery of Rs 500 and pay balance later.

I have never focused on CGPA while hiring.
Maybe I’m biased coz I had shit grades all through school, engineering and MBA.
For me, passion dictates outcome.
It pops out even if it’s as a part of annual fest committee.
CGPA should be highly prioritized for the first 3-4 semesters in engineering. Cause after that, it's difficult to change it significantly.
I observed this in almost all of my peers at IIT(including mine). My CGPA after the 4th sem was around the same as the CGPA I finally

I think it’s easy to point fingers at exchanges and miss the bigger picture.
They don’t wake up at 8pm and decide to change things up for the next day. They have a lot more at stake than any of us.

Guarantee of 12% isn’t true but lower returns guarantee isn’t true either
Index is a collection of top 50/30 stocks, not a reflection of nation’s growth
Indexes work in a way that the best performing stocks move in and worst move out
For every Japan example, there’s a US
So if you a developing nation's index gave 12% returns in last 30 years, in next 30 years, the returns are bound to go down because you can't keep growing at the same pace.
