tip in the pot to the top

all tips are not bad.


some are good

few are excellent.


but surprisingly

almost all

especially the ones mass circulated

seem to go in opposite direction

for some time

before they show their worth.


reason?


well,

the technical calls are based on

technicals.


good technical tips

are pro-rally

and more importantly

pro-fundamentals.


big-pocket operators

know it and see it all.


while they certainly can't ignore

the fundamentals and the rally for long

they definitely have the reason, intention and power

to rock the boat

in opposite direction

atleast for some time.


good "tipsters"

know all this.


they try to give tips

after some delay.


i.e. they don't pass on the tip

the moment one pops up!


but hold it

keep it in the "pots of ready tips"

till the tips season out

mature

age

get despirited

denatured

and

de-stinged!


once the operators are done with their tricks

the tippers

reach their golden "pots"

recheck

and release the tips!


a good tip

must go in the pot

before going to the top!

psychology of tippers - II

(reminiscences of stock operator)



"tips! how people want tips!

they crave not only to get them

but to give them.

there is greed involved, and vanity.

it is very amusing, at times, to watch really intelligent people

fish for them.

and the tip-giver need not hesitate about the quality,

for the tip-seeker is not really after good tips,

but after any tip.

if it makes good, fine!

if it doesn't, better luck with the next.

..........tip-seekers and tip-takers are invariably tip-passers,

tip-broadcasting becomes a sort of endless chain advertising."

psychology of tippers

(reminiscences of stock operator)



"i sometimes think

that tip-takers are like drunkards.

there are some who can't resist the craving

and always look forward to those jags

which they consider indispensable to their happiness.

it is so easy to open your ears

and let the tip in.

to be told precisely what to do to be happy.

it is not so much greed made blind by eagerness

as it is hope bandaged by the unwillingness to do any thinking."

trading with grace!

the fly

sitting on the bolt

of the panel

of the wing

of the aircraft

thinks

that

she is flying the jet!

-

neither the passengers

nor the turbines

mind her repeated buzzing

till

she doesn't shriek

about her trading abilities!
