This is yet another trading blog, but not written by financial whizkid but by a techie. Yes, i'm a techie working in India with the same routine job like hundreds/thousands of techies.

Every second person i see around in my company or rather companies i know friends working in is seen investing in stock market. Like rest of world, some make money, rest lose money:)

One thing is common: We techies are the real common man of stock market, who uses internet to invest in stocks, rely on CNBC or tips given to us by brokers and most are risk averse investing in large caps and mid caps, mostly playing long.

Having played the long strategy, i've felt like i've been missing something... feels like i'm on a paddleboat while stock market and folks are on speedboats... making 20% in week's time.....

Seeing this i'm embarking on journey to momentum investing and documenting it via this blog.

This blog is about momentum investing and not day trading. Day trading refers to buy/sell on same day, whilst momentum investing is about making money in couple of days.

Day trading is not possible with full time job as techie.
