INFO LEAK FROM RBI?



A hunt is on to track down men suspected to have leaked the discussions of a closed-door meeting this week between Reserve Bank of India (RBI) deputy governor Viral Acharya and a dozen senior fund managers and bankers. 

Bond prices dipped soon after the meeting on Monday, with security yields further hardening after a news agency report linked the price movements to views purportedly expressed by Acharya. 


The media leak and trades by select institutions (which could have been privy to what was discussed) have not gone down well with the RBI top brass. Officials from the regulator are understood to have voiced their displeasure to Deutsche Bank, which organised the meeting between Acharya and its top clients.

The Chart Types we need a charting technique that displays this information in the most comprehensible way. If not for a good charting technique, charts can get quite complex. Each trading day has four data points’ i.e the OHLC. If we are looking at a 10 day chart, we need to visualize 40 data points (1 day x 4 data points per day). So you can imagine how complex it would be to visualize 6 months or a year’s data. As you may have guessed, the regular charts that we are generally used to – like the column chart, pie chart, area chart etc does not work for technical analysis. The only exception to this is the line chart. The regular charts don’t work mainly because they display one data point at a given point in time. However Technical Analysis requires four data points to be displayed at the same time. Below are some of the chart types: 1. Line chart 2. Bar Chart 3. Japanese Candlestick The focus of this module will be on the Japanese Candlesticks however before we get...

THE NIFTY FUTURE  Basics of the Index Futures Within the Indian derivatives world, the Nifty Futures has a very special place. The ‘Nifty Futures’ is the most widely traded futures instrument, thus making it the most liquid contract in the Indian derivative markets. In fact you may be surprised to know that Nifty Futures is easily one of the top 10 index futures contracts traded in the world. Once you get comfortable with futures trading I would imagine, like many of us you too would be actively trading the Nifty Futures. For this reason, it would make sense to understand Nifty futures thoroughly. As we know the futures instrument is a derivative contract that derives its value from an underlying asset. In the context of Nifty futures, the underlying is the Index itself. Hence the Nifty Futures derives its value from the Nifty Index. This means if the value of Nifty Index goes up, then the value of Nifty futures also goes up. Likewise if the value of Nifty Index decl...

The Beginner’s Guide to Technical Analysis Combining Fundamental and Technical Analysis On the left: 4H chart of EUR/USD with various technical methods applied (source: Twitter) On the right: Kandinsky horizontale (Source: Google Images) Up to this point, we’ve explored Support & Resistance, Candle Patterns, Moving Averages, Fibonacci Retracements, Oscillators, Bands, Channels and Envelopes. However, it would be too simplistic to reduce successful speculation to mere technicals. Sure, technical analysis is an easy empirical method, which is actually very useful for: Measuring market sentiment on a given asset  Timing potential entries and exits  Managing risk. However, it is rare to find a successful FX speculator that relies on technicals alone. In reality, behind successful FX speculation lies a decision making process that most likely blends technical analysis and fundamental analysis. Picture this: you are a trader for a hedge fund, ...
