The time has finally arrived to simplify how we use the volume indicator on our charts. With a Tradingview script at the end, here is a thread🧵 on what “simple” volumes are, & how to use them: 👇

@CA_Shubham_Ko Very true

Both paths are valid. But both have costs. Learning alone can be slower and painful but deeply internalised. Learning with mentors can be faster and structured but increases the risk of dependency. Whether you learn alone or with a mentor, conviction has to be built, not borrowed.

First, understand this clearly. There are two types of people: 1. People with a strong will & independent thought process, and 2. People who thrive on community & shared inspiration The first kind of people are those who, if at all, learn from their own mistakes, and no matter how hard someone tries, they cannot understand. They are poor students, but probably good teachers. The second kind are those who learn through connection, by absorbing wisdom from others, growing through collaboration, and refining their ideas in the collective. They can always shorten their learning curve with the guidance of others. 1. People who don't need mentorships Since I'm the first kind, here is some gyan for traders who might be of the same orientation: ⦿ Don't ever attend any mentorships or courses (not even mine, if I launch one some day, LOL). After being an off-and-on part of multiple such communities, all I can say is if you can learn even one or two concepts from another trader (‘mentor’), consider your time well spent. ⦿ Try to stay away from trading groups & webinars, as you might get influenced and might adopt borrowed convictions, which can consume your time and further lengthen your learning curve. ⦿ Listen to what your mind/heart says, and follow its direction. You are your best teacher, & no one but you can lead yourself to the path of clarity and conviction. 2. People who need mentorships For the second kind of people, congratulations, first of all. You have a relatively less tough trading journey ahead. You just need a mentor who suits your trading personality. I define a person as a 'mentor' if, and only if, the time & money you spend on him leads to the shortening of your learning curve. Based on my personal experience at various points of time during my trading journey, here are some genuine people that I think might be worth your time, as per the trading stage you are in: Beginner traders You need to be satisfied with becoming a profitable trader. Your first year in trading is best spent in this stage. ⦿ Milind Upasani (@Milind4profits) (SEBI Registered RA) - easy approach to the markets with dashboards & scanners. Will largely train your mind to follow the alerts & not take random decisions. ⦿ Rohit Musale (rohitmusale.com) (SEBI Registered RA) - identifying base formation in stage 2 stocks & buying breakouts. You learn a lot about price action & rating bases into healthy or faulty. Intermediate traders Now you're looking to accelerate and competing with your past profitable self, & trying for super-performance. ⦿ Hiren Gabani (@Hirengabani23) - Very simple & down-to-earth person. Swing trading only on conventional structures in stage-2 stocks & under healthy market conditions. Mastery in identifying '5-star' setups. You need to have the patience of sitting out for prolonged periods. ⦿ Manas Arora (@iManasArora) - One of the most respected Indian traders; the OG. Short to medium-term trend-following with a focus on building up size in winning names via razor-sharp execution. Will also trade reversals & oversold bounces. You need to have a lot of discipline to follow his process. Pro Traders Nothing but super-performance is your goal. You are now not satisfied by 'ordinary' returns. ⦿ Umang Tiwari (@stocksgeeks) - The walking encyclopedia. Strategy switching (swing, hybrid, intra) as per the market conditions. Multiple setups that are supposed to make money in whatever situation possible. You need to have speed, energy & motivation to be here. ———————————————— Disclaimer: - I'm not an affiliate of any of the mentioned persons. - I'm not to be held responsible by any of their past, present or future actions. - This list is neither exhaustive nor infallible.

@tightvcptrader Haha… that’s just a variant of the second type. 😄

There is a third type too. Make good friends from the community and you get to learn from all of their experiences and insights. 😉

@tightvcptrader @stocksgeeks @real_shubham_7 Yes, from what I’ve read on his timeline, Shubham is very good. No doubt about that. 👍

@finallynitin @stocksgeeks Another constant guiding force in my life and a very underrated trader is @real_shubham_7. The kind of trading maturity he has is incredible.

@tightvcptrader @stocksgeeks Yes. See, I’m not ranking him (or anyone). All I’m sharing is my experience that his style is the toughest to execute, & beginners & intermediate traders are better away from him. 😜😄 p.s. I’m yet to see another fellow trader using seconds chart.

Having learnt from almost everyone in this list I have to agree that @stocksgeeks is the best mentor out there. And coming from one of the best in the business (you) itself says a lot! Truly grateful for all his learnings and constant guidance. I consider myself lucky to have him around! ❤️

@JoyfulGiri @rohitmusalecfa Thanks for sharing his X handle. 👍

Hi Nitin, thanks for the write-up. FYI – I joined as a student with @rohitmusalecfa. While reading Mark Minervini's book, one key point is to reduce our learning curve. As you said, we can learn on our own, but the question is at what time. At the same time, we should grasp the knowledge from others and try to execute on own rather just copy and paste other people's trade by managing risk.

Market Quadrant 12/2026 A hard-money environment where structural breakouts are tough to find, and the stocks that are moving up are doing so without forming any conventional setups. ⦿ Bias remains firmly bearish, with only one-fourth of all stocks trading above their 200-day MA. ⦿ Trend stays down, as 52-week net new highs are consistently negative and about one-fifth of all stocks are above their 50-day MA. ⦿ Swing conditions are negative with MBI sustaining in the red, while 75% of stocks are below their 10-day MA. ⦿ Momentum is negative & worsening, with only the Power index having positive & improving momentum. Conservative swing portfolios should remain in cash, & wait for broader participation to start with constructive chart structures. Link to blogpost: finallynitin.substack.com/p/market-quadr…
