seriosuly, you can make a cool 10k p.m. from shares without any fuss.

Just buy 100 shares when they fall by 3-4 rs from trend and sell same day when they rise by 3-4 bucks from avg price. Sometimes fluctuation is more...this way u can make 500-800 per day and with some luck maybe more. Ofcourse, if markets crash.....

but u need to have lot of time to do this and indepth understanding of the stock in question. I am just starting in share market and not a day trader at all...

Ah. Yes. In the good old post harshad mehta days, people used to ask "How to make one crore from the market"; and the answer used to be "start with two".

Day trading is mere speculation - NOT investment.

No one said day trading is investment. Anyways, investors wont make much in this flat market. I think one should turn investor when its a bull market...not now.

icici typically hovers between 1000-1200...so i am planning to sell once it crosses 1150...

tsk1979 · 25th February 2008, 12:24

Hovers between 1150-1350

Budget effect - banks falling badly :(

tsk1979 · 29th February 2008, 12:24

I wonder whats wrong with SUZLON and BHARTI Airtel! Those were my long term bets.

LLL · 29th February 2008, 13:14

banks screwed...ndtv panelists seem to suggest that banks gonna take the hit on farmers loan waiver.

all stocks hit due to st cap gains raise to 15%

snaronikar · 29th February 2008, 14:22

FM has waived around 60,000 crs on loans taken by farmers. This will definately affect the bankex in sensex which is already down. Don't know where will the banks run for cover now.
