KEEP GOING

LAST TIME WE SAW WHAT BSE TOP GAINERS/LOSERS AND NSE TOP GAINERS / LOSERS MEAN,NOW ITS TIME FOR SOME MORE TERMS.


ADVANCES DECLINES:
THIS CHART GIVES YOU THE NUMBER OF SHARES WHOSE PRICES HAVE INCREASED (i:e ADVANCED) AND DECREASED (i:e DECLINED).THESE ARE JUST NUMBERS AND PROVIDE YOU AN IDEA OF THE MARKET TREND FOR THE DAY.


YOU MAY THINK THAT IF THE NUMBER OF DECLINES IS MORE THAN THE ADVANCES THEN THE SENSEX/NIFTY IS GOING TO FALL AND VICE-VERSA.
WELL IT IS TRUE BUT NOT ALWAYS THOUGH.ITS NOT JUST 'HOW MANY' BUT ALSO 'WHICH' SHARES ADVANCE OR DECLINE DECIDE THE FATE OF THE SENSEX/NIFTY FOR THE DAY.


SOME SHARES NEITHER ADVANCE OR DECLINE THESE ARE LISTED UNDER UNCHANGED.A SMART INVESTOR MUST ALWAYS BE FAR OFF FROM SHARES WHICH CONSISTENTLY APPEAR IN THE UNCHANGED LIST.


TURNOVER (Rs Cr)
THIS ONE IS QUITE SIMPLE,IT GIVES YOU THE VALUE OF THE VARIOUS TRANSACTIONS TAKEN PLACE THROUGHOUT THE DAY.
THE FIGURES IN CRORES CERTAINLY MAKE US WOBBLE.

BACK TO WORK

WELL I JUST HAD FEW DAYS OF SUMMER VACATION YOU CAN SAY,THOUGH I HAD TO DEDICATE TIME TO MAKE CHARTS OR SKETCHES AS I CALL THEM FOR MY FURTHER POSTS AND SOME EVEN FOR PRIOR POSTS.THEY WILL BE REACHING YOU SOON,BUT TILL THEN LETS JUST TROD THE BEATEN PATH.


IN THE LAST POST I HAD EXPLAINED YOU HOW AND WHAT TO READ IN THE NEWSPAPER LIST.NOW LETS GET SOME MORE DETAILS UNDER OUR BELT(OR BELLY SHOULD I CALL IT)

IF YOU OBSERVE THE SMALL BLOCKS LINED UP ALONG THE LIST THEN YOU MAY FIND TERMS LIKE BSE TOP GAINERS, BSE TOP LOSERS, NSE TOP GAINERS,NSE TOP LOSERS,ADVANCES AND DECLINES,TURNOVER, MARKET CAP ETC.
LETS SORT THEM OUT ONE BY ONE

BSE TOP GAINERS:

THIS IS NOTHING BUT THE LIST OF THOSE SHARES WHOSE PRICES HAVE ROSE THE MOST.IN OTHER WORDS THE SHARES WHOSE PRICES HAVE SHOT UP FROM THEIR YESTERDAYS PRICE ARE LISTED IN DECREASING ORDER OF THE PERCENTAGE CHANGE.THUS SHARE SHOWING HIGHEST PERCENTAGE INCREASE IS LISTED FIRST AND SO ON.
NORMALLY THE CLOSING PRICE OF THE SHARE AND PERCENTAGE CHANGE IN PRICE ARE GIVEN ALONG WITH THE COMPANY NAME.

BSE TOP LOSERS:

EXACTLY OPPOSITE TO BSE TOP GAINERS THIS LIST PROVIDES THE INFORMATION OF SHARES WHICH HAVE RECORDED THE MAXIMUM SLUMP IN PRICE FROM THE PREVIOUS DAY.

THUS THE ABOVE TWO LISTS PROVIDE YOU INFORMATION REGARDING THE BEST AND WORST PERFORMING SHARES OF THE DAY AT BSE.

NSE TOP GAINERS AND LOSERS LIST PROVIDES THE SAME INFORMATION FOR NSE TRANSACTIONS.

AS USUAL TRUST ME TO COME UP WITH AN EXAMPLE TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE TERMS BETTER.

work in progress

hi there,this post of mine did take a bit longer to come.but as usual i have a pretty good reason to defend myself.

while reading the last few blogs which contain a lot of technical aspects i realized that some visuals will make understanding the terms and examples a bit easier and less boring too.
well i have been working on it for some days and you will certainly see the difference in the posts to come

till then just bare with me.
