Trading Trolls







Speculation is Infectious. Speculation is another name for Anticipation that entices people to put there or there forefathers money at stake in commodity and money markets. Not just there, rather everywhere.

My emphasis today is strongly on the financial markets as countless people tend to make fortunes or loose them in minutes and seconds. That's how volatile the markets are now. My story of speculation started in mid July-mid August 2011 in Austria, Europe. I was watching Bloomberg T.V, when Greece was declaring it's insolvency asking for a bail out package. I did not really understand what it meant, all i knew was that Greece was BROKE.  Maybe, the accent of the Host had me glued to the show. I showed somewhat interest in the content being delivered by him and one thing i understood, was the analogy by which Gold and Crude worked in Worldwide Markets.Gold and Crude shared an inverse relationship like foes who would kill each other if they met. If one rose, the other stooped. I came back and started observing the movements and volatility of these two commodities. As long as i can remember, when Gold rose from INR 21000 PER 10 GRAMS TO INR 28000 PER 10 GRAMS, Crude which was trading at 5200 slipped down to 4800 respectively. Speculating the movements of these commodities during this specific time and seeing them happen gave me a certain amount of confidence regarding my understanding about the Markets.

I see the markets as i write today and every analogy, every theorem, every speculative formula, every movement on the basis of anticipation seems to fail.Gold and Crude seem to be Bff's (Best Friend Forever), both showing a mighty Price Rise. Allow me to say, I have never witnessed the Indian Rupee being ripped apart so badly. I was never a direct investor, but a direct opinion went from my end to the people close, who would count on it.

But today, i dare not pass an Opinion, for i am so very not trusting the market. I will instead, pass an opinion to myself and watch the screens and Television to reconfirm my anticipations. A close uncle just lost INR 86,00,000 while trading in Gold when Gold had a slip from INR 32000 PER 10 GRAMS  TO INR 26000 PER 10 GRAMS . 

And today as i write, Gold trades at INR 32900 PER 10 GRAMS, USD = INR is 1 = 64.95 and Crude trades at 7000.

Investors, Please BE SAFE!! Because what happens often with many is that people tend to play beyond there limits. I am reminded of a Hindi Sher which is a little romantic but fits in perfectly with the Investor's sentiments. And it says,

Paaon Phailaaye to dekhi nahee chaadar humne
Tujh ko chaaha toh aukaat se badh kar chaaha

Here's wishing you Happy days and importantly, Happy nights. Investors quite often loose out on a good night sleep. 

Happy and Safe Trading!!

Farewell MANMOHAN, MODI Executed

Hi everyone! Almost a month, i scribbled something on this template to communicate and reach out to you through my views. Quite frankly, a lot has been happening on the family front. There's this lady designated (now) as my fiance, soon to be my wife who takes away my time. And she rightfully deserves that. So, bless us with all your good wishes.  But here, i am not to talk of my personal life. I had and have been reading a lot about the declining stature and reputation of Indian National Congress and the steeping heights Bhartiya Janta Party has achieved through these elections. The BJP has won the battle and now we have MR. Narendra Modi as Prime Minister of this great nation called INDIA. But, amid-st all this " halla hoo " of Election 2014, many people have been unfairly positioned and misinterpreted. And the greatest of all of them being affected, Mr. Manmohan Singh, former Prime Minister of INDIA for consecutive 10 years i.e 2004- 2014. Mr. Manmohan Si...

Yeh Bharat Desh Hai Mera (c)

The Thought Good Morning every one. On this day, the 26 of January of 2013, I put forward a poem, a compilation of thoughts about my country India. The poem is called "Yeh Bharat Desh Hai Mera". It is an attempt to bring out both the positives and negatives, this nation has to offer. This is India, a secular country to be called, but still puzzled in communal differences and riots from the times i fail to remember. This is India, where the Poor is taken care of. Where the poor or the poverty struck does not need to care about his meals of the day, for this land is never short on food for charity. This is India, where Politics is a mud-play, where the commons don't matter to the political parties. What matters is there holding within the country. This is India, where riots arise on the stupid reasons of being a Temple built or a Mosque on a piece of land. I refer to the Babri Masjid case. This is India, which was considered a third world country by the glo...

Happy Women's Day

The Thought To all the women of the world, accept this poem for all what you do for (let's admit) the men. Men are great and good but incomplete. And yes, somewhere irresponsible. So i'll not bring much to the embarrassment of my brothers round the globe and straight shot say, "Lady who the one? I say YOU the one!" Accept this poem as a token of love and respect.  A big bow to the woman of today To the thorns of forbearance laid her way To the composure, she holds within her self To the closure , that absorbs everything in itself To the mother, that woke up to get you sleeping To the mother, seeing you sad was she weeping To the beloved, who would fight the world for you To the beloved, for her happiness entirely is you To the sister, who in secret prays for you To the sister, her lips have praise for you To the granny, for you're the apple of her eye To the granny, for she's the "buri nazar" spy ...

The ANTI-Social Media

I just tweeted a few days back " I have always been a little late than others! When people tweeted, i facebook' ed . Today when i am tweeting, i wonder what's next genre? " And i seriously think i am late and lag behind in the race of the virtual world. Furthermore to console and motivate myself, i keep calling myself a bit " Retro " or a bit " Vintage ". I strongly think that Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and many other virtual worlds have encouraged, influenced the participation of  "Mango People" in important matters. The participation and the say of a common man has increased manifold. In fact, it has further broadened the horizons of human understanding about different forms of Art and Cultures. The social media has been a great aide in bringing recognition to this labyrinth of talent scattered all over the world. Politics is a clear example of how social media educates and involves people connected from all over. O...

शुभ दीपावली ~ SHUBH DEEPAWALI

 शुभ दीपावली  Here's wishing you a very Happy DIWALI in advance today. This is one of the times when every city looks beautiful as anything. It does not matter if you witness this scene while you are on one of the streets of any city or you are in a plane flying over the skies of any city or you are in a train crossing the distances from one city to another amid st some villages too. It has to be a visual treat. From small houses to big mansions to corporate towers creating the skyline lit up so beautifully, they surely make up for a visual treat . It's like being invited to the visual Feast of the Almighty himself. All that is good but there's one thing that's not good post Diwali. While we enjoy Diwali with our family and friends by burning crackers, there is a Cumulative Diwali Syndrome being build up in the air which would act very soon on every one, once Diwali is over. We, the people, birds and animals are the ones who suffer from this la...
