Back trading

After a hiatus of a year or so, I am back at the bourse. Yes, the inevitable beckon of the shiny coin has led me back to the NSE. Last year, without any sound financial knowledge or information-and with wild stabs in the dark, I was able to make a lukewarm, close to a thousand dollars, in a couple of months. Note, this was merely for just having my meagre deposits at the CDSC, basking in the sun, along the beach and enjoying a tall glass of ice-cold water! It kind of makes me wonder what a seasoned investor, well-grounded in financial jargon and the mechanics of trading, made at the NSE. While it may not have surprised a seasoned investor, my jaw dropped as I watched a couple of counters' values rise three-fold in just a couple of months. I rued why I had not invested in some of them. This year I hope to put in a lot more- and hopefully reap more from the stock market. But I also plan to be armed with sound information because the very least any investor can do is research widely about the dynamics of the trade....and learn the jargon.
Let's see how this goes.
