Become more aware of the precariousness of life....OSHO

Become more aware of the precariousness of life.
Death can happen any moment. The next moment, it may knock on your door.
You can remain unaware if you think you are going to live forever.
How can you live unaware if death is always close by? Impossible!

If life is momentary, a soap bubble -- just a pin prick and it is gone forever -- how can you remain unaware?
Bring awareness to each act. Walking on the road, walk fully alert; eating, eat with awareness.
Whatsoever you are doing, don't let the past and the future interfere. Be in the present. That's what awareness is all about. Taking a shower, just take the shower.
Don't let the mind go far away, into the past, into the future.
Don't allow the mind these faraway excursions, these journeys.
Taking a shower, just take the shower.

Just become a little more alert. Do whatsoever you are doing, but bring the quality of consciousness to your actions -- there is no other method. And you can bring that quality to small things and that is helpful. Sitting, just watch your breathing.

The breath goes in, watch; the breath goes out, watch. Just go on watching your breathing. And it is of great help because if you watch your breathing, thinking stops.

This is something to be understood. Either you can think or you can watch your breathing. You can't do both together. Breathing and thinking are such processes that only one can exist in you -- in awareness. In unawareness, both can continue: you can go on breathing and you can go on thinking.

But if you become aware, either you can think or you can breathe; and when you breathe with awareness, thinking disappears. Your whole consciousness becomes focused on breathing. And breathing is such a simple process: you need not do it, it is already happening. You can just bring your consciousness to it.

Pessimist Vs Optimist

"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity;

an optimist sees the oportunity in every difficulty."

Trader Vs Investor

There are a lot of people out there who thinks they are investors but apparently they aren't. There are two categories for people who buys stock:

1.Trader

2.Investor

The philosophy behind these two categories are different. While there is no doubt both groups can make profit in the stock market, by knowing where you stand, you will improve your chance of making more profit.

.
A trader is one who buy a stock and sell it within a short amount of time to make a quick profit. They are usually day-trader or swing trader. Traders usually rely on the momentum and "ride the waves" to make their profit.

.A day trader focuses on trading in an intraday basis while a swing trader holds on to their stock for a little bit longer, usually from a few days to a few weeks. The techniques used by traders in their stock selection is mainly technical analysis with a little bit of fundamental analysis. Technical analysis is used by predicting the price movement of the current stock based on the past action and indicators. While technical analysis may not always be accurate, an experienced trader will know to set stop-losses in case things go wrong.

.
On the other hand, an investor is one who buys and holds for the long term. People such as Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch are investors. Their stock selection is based on the company's financial condition rather than the price momentum used by the traders. Investors focus on analyzing a companies balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow to determine if a company is worth investing in, such an analysis can be called fundamental analysis. Once an investor has selected and purchased their stock, they will hold on to it for many years. They will ignore the fluctuation of the prices in the short term basis because based upon their analysis of the company's condition, they know that the company is growing and the stock price will eventually be match the value of the company in the long term.

.
There are two types of investors, however, value and growth investors. As their name implied, a value investors hunt for bargains. They search for good companies whose stock price has been driven so low that its price is much less than the value of the company. Value investors would invest in these companies and wait for the price to finally catch up to the value of the company. Growth investors, however, looks for company that are growing at an extraordinary rate. Their philiosopy is to invest in companies whose expansion and future prospects looks very bright despite the prices of their shares, because they know that if a company is in good condition and its stock price will be higher as the company grows in the long run.

. So we have covered when traders and investors buy their stocks, but when do they sell?

A trader will sell their stocks as close as possible to the peak to make the most profit. They use techinical indicators such as support and resistance lines and various other pattern to tell them a stock price will cease to climb soon and its better to sell. An investor will hold on to their stock until they find out the company they invested in has ceased to grow, in which prices will cease to grow as well, or when the prices of the stock became overpriced compared to the value on a company.

.
So now that you know the two differences, find out which side you stand on and research into the techniques and skills used by the type you are in to improve your profit from the stock market.

8 Relaxation Exercises to Release Tension

8 Relaxation Exercises to Release Tension

What happens when we are under tension?
When we are under physical threat the body naturally tenses up certain muscles in order to protect itself. It basically hunches and curls up into a ball to protect vulnerable areas and expose the better-protected ones.

These are the muscles that tense up under stress:

- We tend to frown
- We tend to clench our jaws
- Our shoulders tend to hunch up
- Our chest tends to close
- Our arms tend to come into our sides
- Our hands tend to bunch into fists
- Our legs tend to close
- Our knees tend to be drawn up
- Our feet tend to be drawn up, so our feet are pointing upwards .

So how do we relax these muscles?
In order to relax the muscles that tense up under stress we need to move the affected joints in the opposite direction to the natural danger response.
comei plak kucing nih tido…

Here are some relaxation exercises to release tension:
1. Try to move your forehead or hairline backwards over the top of your head - the opposite of a frown. It may help to imagine your hand stroking backwards from your forehead over the top of your head and down to the back of your neck - but don’t actually do the stoking.
2. Open your mouth as wide as you can, hold and release
3. Push your shoulders down and back, hold and release
4. Stretch your arms up and link your hands above you head.
5. Open your hands as wide as you possibly can, hold and release.
6. Lie on your back and roll your knees outwards. No need for a big movement on this one - a few millimeters is all that’s needed to relax your inner thigh muscles.
7. Straighten your knees so that your hip is opened out and stretched.
8. Point your toes downwards as far as you can. Hold and release.

The ideal way to start learning these exercises is to lie flat on your back. Once you have got the hang of it you can do them at any time: sitting at your desk, waiting in a queue, waiting at a stoplight. Wherever you have a few moments to wait.

10 Deadly Trading Mistakes

10 Deadly Trading Mistakes !

The following are 10 most common but deadly Trading Mistakes, which traders should avoid at all costs. Anyone of them can literally destroy one's financial dreams and goals!

1. Trading for excitement & thrill Not for profits.
Many traders consider stock market as casino and trade for thrill and fun only. As soon as one has a losing trade, he wants to quickly make back the lost money. He thinks about the other things he could have done with the money, regret taking the trade and want to recover as quickly as possible. This in turn leads to further mistakes. Be patient and wait for the next high probability opportunity. Don't rush back in.

2. Trading with a high ego.

Many individuals who have remained highly successful in other business ventures have failed miserably in trading game. Because they have a fairly big ego and thought they couldn't fail. Their egos become their downfall because they can not except that they would be wrong and refuse to get out of bad trades. Once again, whoever or wherever has any one come from does not concern the markets. All the charm, powers of persuasion, number of degrees & diplomas of business management on the wall or business savvy will not budge the market when you are wrong.

3. Three 4-letter words that will kill you! HOPE--WISH--FEAR--PRAY

If you ever find yourself doing one or more of the above while in a trade then you are in big trouble! Markets has own system of moving up & down. All the hoping, wishing and praying or being fearful in the world is not going to turn a losing trade into a winning one. When you are wrong just use a simple 4-letter word to correct the situation-GET OUT!

4. Trading with money you can't afford to lose.

One of the greatest obstacles to successful trading is using money that you really can't afford to lose. Examples of this would be money that is supposed to be used in any other business, money to be paid for college/school fee, trading with borrowed money etc. Ultimately what happens is that when someone knows in the back of their mind that they are risking the money they can not afford to lose, they trade out of fear and emotion versus logic and no emotion. If you are in this situation It is highly recommend that you stop trading until you earn enough to put into an account that you truly can afford to lose without causing major financial setbacks.

5. No Trading Plan

If you consider yourself a trader, ask yourself these questions: Do I have a set of rules that tell me what to buy, when to buy and how much to buy, not just for the next trade, but for the next 10 trades? Before I enter a trade, do I know when I will take profits? Do I know when I will get out if I am wrong? These questions form the first part of a trading strategy. There simply cannot be any expectation of success if we can't answer these questions clearly and concisely.

6. Spending profits before you make them.

Nothing is more exciting then getting into a trade that blasts off and puts you into a highly profitable situation. This can cause major problems however, because this type of trade puts you in a highly euphoric state and leads to daydreaming about the huge profits still to come. The real problem occurs as you get caught up in the daydream and expectations. This causes you to not be prepared to get out as the market reverses and wipes off all your profits because you have convinced yourself of the eventual outcome and will deny the reality of the situation. The simple remedy for this is to know where and how you will take profits once you enter the trade.

7. Not Cutting Losses or letting Profits run

One of the most common mistakes made by traders is that they let their losses grow too large. Nobody likes to take a loss, but failing to take a small loss early will often result in being forced to take a large loss later. A great trader is not someone who has never had a loss. Great traders have made many losses. But what makes them great is their ability to recover quickly from a string of losses. Every trader needs to develop a method for getting out of losing trades quickly. Research and learn to apply the best methods for placing protective stoploss orders. The only way to recover from many (small) losing trades is to make sure the winning trades are much larger. After a series of losing trades, it becomes difficult to hold a winning trade because we fear that it will also turn into a loss. Let your profitable trades run. Give them room to move and give them time to move.

8. Not Sticking to your plans & Changing strategies during market hours

If you find yourself changing your strategy during the day while the markets are still open, be mindful of the fact that you are likely to be subject to emotional reactions of fear and greed. With rare exception, the most prudent thing to do is to plan your trading strategy before the market opens and then strictly stick to it during trading hours.

9. Not knowing how to get out of a losing trade.

It's amazing that most of the traders don't have any clear escape plan for getting out of a bad trade. Once again they hope, pray wish and rationalize their position. It must be kept in mind that market does not care what you think. It does what it does and when you are wrong you are wrong! The easiest way to keep a bad trade from going really bad is to determine before you get in, where you will get out.

10. Falling in love with a stock (Just Flirt).

Many traders get fascinated by just a stock or two and look for opportunities to trade in those stocks only ignoring the other profitable trading opportunities. It is because they have simply fallen in love with a stock to trade with. Such tendencies can be suicidal as for as trading is concerned. It may cost any one dearly.

Forward This to your Friends and Relatives who are involved into trading and help them avoid Losses. (I thank > Niti Mathur for forwarding this to me)

Nifty Future

Nifty Is in over Bought zone and it may fall at any time.Nifty has strong resistance zone 5270-5292 Range and cross over these levels with volume may take nifty upto 5300-5400 range.

.

I expect tomorrow a gap down opening around 20-30 points and there on nifty may move in side ways.if the world cue's will be in negative that may favours the bears to come inn and bring down nifty to 5130.oo level.

Relax...Another Master..is Getting Ready.

These days we are hearing so many Scandal news about the spiritual masters one after another.Right from Nithyanada to Kalki !!! Why this is happening? I strongly belief it is because of the so called spiritual masters are capable of minting so much money and creating wealth after wealth around the world corners and that give them a kind of power and they slowely become power/fame maniac's and start abusing the diciples and others.

.

Thats why they have forgotten their prime responsibilities to make peoples enlighten ; instead they fool people and start abusing wealth from them.This picture i got it from Akash Krishna >it has very meanifull insights that every one Think themselfs that, they are enlighten..The problem starts here and there are so many false guru's and the manipulation happening around in the name of Spirituality.

Cup with handle formation

i have found in the intraday banknifty future chart the 'Cup with handle formation' it is similar in appearance to Rounded Bottoms. Like rounded bottoms, the pattern includes an elongated U-shape.The pattern is similar in appearance to a coffee cup with a right-side handle, and indicates the potential for an uptrend.
....

Usually this cup formation tend to happens in 1-2weeks time and it is a kind of cosolidation for the uptrend since the extended right side handle . But today i am surprised to see the same in intraday chart and the technicals worked as well in intraday too.

Bollinger Bands

Bollinger Bands Introduction:
Bollinger Bands are a technical trading tool created by John Bollinger in the early 1980s. They arose from the need for adaptive trading bands and the observation that volatility was dynamic, not static as was widely believed at the time.

The purpose of Bollinger Bands is to provide a relative definition of high and low. By definition prices are high at the upper band and low at the lower band. This definition can aid in rigorous pattern recognition and is useful in comparing price action to the action of indicators to arrive at systematic trading decisions.

Bollinger Bands consist of a set of three curves drawn in relation to securities prices. The middle band is a measure of the intermediate-term trend, usually a simple moving average, that serves as the base for the upper band and lower band. The interval between the upper and lower bands and the middle band is determined by volatility, typically the standard deviation of the same data that were used for the average. The default parameters, 20 periods and two standard deviations, may be adjusted to suit your purposes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The 15 basic Bollinger Band rules

The 15 basic rules for using Bollinger Bands.One of the great joys of having invented an analytical technique such as BollingerBands is seeing what other people do with it. While there are many ways to use Bollinger Bands, following are a few rules that serve as a good beginning point.

1. Bollinger Bands provide a relative definition of high and low.
2. That relative definition can be used to compare price action and indicatorto arrive at rigorous buy and sell decisions.
3. Appropriate indicators can be derived from momentum, volume, sentiment, openinterest, inter-market data, etc.
4. Volatility and trend have already been deployed in the construction of BollingerBands, so their use for confirmation of price action is not recommended.
5. The indicators used for confirmation should not be directly related to one another.Two indicators from the same category do not increase confirmation. Avoid colinearity.
6. Bollinger Bands can also be used to clarify pure price patterns such as M-type;tops and W-type bottoms, momentum shifts, etc.
7. Price can, and does, walk up the upper Bollinger Band and down the lower BollingerBand.
8. Closes outside the Bollinger Bands can be continuation signals, not reversalsignals--as is demonstrated by the use of Bollinger Bands in some very successfulvolatility-breakout systems.
9. The default parameters of 20 periods for the moving average and standarddeviation calculations, and two standard deviations for the bandwidth are justthat, defaults. The actual parameters needed for any given market/task may bedifferent.
10. The average deployed should not be the best one for crossovers. Rather, itshould be descriptive of the intermediate-term trend.
11. If the average is lengthened the number of standard deviations needs to beincreased simultaneously; from 2 at 20 periods, to 2.1 at 50 periods. Likewise,if the average is shortened the number of standard deviations should be reduced;from 2 at 20 periods, to 1.9 at 10 periods.
12. Bollinger Bands are based upon a simple moving average. This is because asimple moving average is used in the standard deviation calculation and we wishto be logically consistent.
13. Be careful about making statistical assumptions based on the use of the standarddeviation calculation in the construction of the bands. The sample size in mostdeployments of Bollinger Bands is too small for statistical significance and thedistributions involved are rarely normal.
14. Indicators can be normalized with %b, eliminating fixed thresholds in the process.
15. Finally, tags of the bands are just that, tags not signals. A tag of the upperBollinger Band is NOT in-and-of-itself a sell signal. A tag of the lower BollingerBand is NOT in-and-of-itself a buy signal.

Dow Theory

Click on the picture to enlarge and see the details.

Trading with Dow Theory

There are many times in a bear market when people (especially the media) start getting excited. The market starts to rally, and before you know it we have truck loads of market experts calling a new bull market. But how do you look through all the news and noise and really tell if a new bull market has really started?

Here is one way that has been very successful in keeping out of bad trades and staying in good ones over the last 50 – 100 years. Originally coined from Charles Dow’s own writings (if his name sounds familiar, it’s because it is one half of the “Dow Jones Index”) Dow Theory, as it is now called, is simple and quick to use. But why would we use Dow Theory?

Here are the main benefits:
1: Dow Theory is an easy and measurable way to recognise when the market is heading up, and when the market is heading down (and likely to continue).

2: As Dow Theory is viewed on a weekly chart, you only need to scan the market once a week. This means you can work full time and still trade successfully.

3: Being a weekly strategy, you get to capture the longer weekly trends. These will usually range from 5% to 30%, but can stretch out to 50%, 100% or more.

4: Dow Theory is easy to recognise. You do not need to have any fancy indicators, volume, or astrological charts on your screen to recognise a Dow Theory signal.

Now, according to Dow Theory, to have a bear market we must see a peak in price, followed by a trough, then followed by a lower peak. Once price trades through or closes below the previous trough, this is our signal to sell.

.
By the same token, to have a bull market we must see a trough, followed by a peak, then followed by a higher trough. Once price trades through or closes above the previous peak, this is our signal to buy. If this all seems confusing,

Good & Bad

I have Nothing to Add...

It is said by osho more precisely than anybody.So it is a complete statement itself and does not need any additional interpretations.

'Carlos Slim Helu' is the 'Richest Man' in the world

The annual Forbes billionaire list says Mexico's Carlos Slim Helu is the richest man in the world, finally edging out Microsoft founder Bill Gates and signaling the rising wealth in developing nations.

The richest person in the world is Carlos Slim Helu,

but who Carlos Slim Helu? The Richest Man In The World reportedly makes $30 million a month. Carlos Slim Helu, who tops The Forbes billionaire list, is the Lifetime Honorary Chairman of Telefonos de Mexico.

Mr. Helu, whom the Christian Science Monitor weirdly described as "the portly cigar-smoker", is the first man from a developing country to become Richest Man In The World. That's another way of saying Carlos Slim Helu is the first person of color to top the Forbes billionaire list.

How Carlos Slim Helu got there is by purchasing a controlling interest in Telmex in 1990, along with a group of investors, and used that to leverage the buying of as many telecom companies in Mexico and Latin America as possible. Now, his family owns 90 percent of Mexico's telephone lines and 80 percent of its cellphone. He's used that to finance his business operations around the World.

Carlos Slim Helu owns almost 7 percent of The New York Times and in 2009 gave the Times Company a $250 million loan. He's reportedly happy with his stake in the company and has no plans to increase it.

Let Us Be Friendly With our Environment

Let Us Be Friendly With our Environment.

Each one of our effort must favours to save our nature.What ever we may do let us have concern over the mother earth.

.

One of the stunning problem's we face in our today life is..> the massive/rapid growth of the 'E-waste'.Our industries are producing lot of new new electronic equipments/cadgets/consumables and that have been outdated within short while.Hence the growth of modern technology is very rapid and the consumers simply throw the old and ready to buy the new as per the trend that changes on a day to day basis.for example mobile phones.What we can do with these E-wastes that come to a scrap dealers?

.

In one our recent news shows that, About 470 tonnes of hazardous e-waste have arrived to 'Thoothukudi' harbour and our Customs Dept identified it has come from some foriegn countries with a false tag as recyclable paper.Many developed countries are finding it difficult to dispose the growing e-waste and india is one of the targeted countries for dumping the poisonous e-waste. The whole world today finding difficult to dispose/recycle these e-wastes which is very harmful and dangerous to humanity.

.

The picture shown above is...The mother board is dismantled for recycling process.We have to accept the truth that; there are few elements of the e-waste's which can not be recycled.What do we do with these harmful wastes ? We have to some how eradicate the manufacturing of these material and need to find a alternative solution.

.

All our industries need to focus to save our environment and keep it clean and green.It is my ut-most concern and like to pass unto each one of my readers.
