a quote that I liked...

Sapne vo nahin hote, jo sone ke baad atein hain.. Sapne vo hote hain, jo aapko sone nahi dete- Akhil Kumar(Boxer) after winning a bout at CWG 2010.

A Day to Remember: Friends, F1, and Fantastic Food!

Image
It had been a year since my last get-together with my two friends, and we were all buzzing with anticipation for this meetup. The occasion felt even more special because Sahil, one of our trio, will soon be leaving Bangalore. This was likely our last chance to meet for a while, making every moment count. Racing into Cinema at Shankar Nag Theatre Our first stop was the legendary Shankar Nag theatre on MG Road, Bangalore. Having lived in Bangalore for 19 years, I've visited this iconic movie hall a few times, and it never disappoints. We were there to watch the much-talked-about F1 movie starring Brad Pitt, was a promising high-octane action movie and was a glimpse into the world of Formula 1 racing. The movie was indeed a great watch. While there were a few moments in the middle that felt like a stretch, perhaps to force a subplot, the ending was both powerful and inspirational.  It's amazing how often movies hold up a mirror to life's realities, offering us mome...

Panchayat Season 4: A Disappointing Departure from Its Roots

Image
As one of the millions of ardent fans eagerly awaiting its arrival, I settled in yesterday to watch the fourth season of "Panchayat." The show initially unfolded in the familiar, comforting rhythm that viewers have come to love over the years. However, this sense of familiarity quickly faded, giving way to something surprisingly uninteresting. The primary issue lies in the storyline, which seemed to veer almost exclusively towards the upcoming panchayat election.

In season four, it felt as though all the characters, in service of this election-centric plot, lost their spark. Their curated complexities and inherent cheekiness, once a highlight of the show, seemed to have vanished. It was genuinely disappoin...

The Trading Year in Review - But it's just August!

Image
Oscillating between trading strategies since the start of the year had taken a toll on my mental well being and it has been a journey of mental language. The journey has been about throwing together technical indicators that may or may not be put together in the same view, and seeing the interoperability of those technical indicators.  Taking off the horse blinds of just using MACD all these years led me to unfamiliar places. Uncomfortable places. But I would not call it getting out of the comfort zone, since the time since 2016 has been a time of extreme discomfort.  Sticking to MACD as the only indicator along with Williams %R had been stifling, and had taken away a lot of time that could have been spent doing constructive things. It also resulted in conditioning the psyche to not look for better alternatives since the trading system involving these two indicators looked so perfect in retrospect. Losses that were a regular feature were side swept since losses were just consi...
