Seeking Feedback on Dynamic Stop-Loss Adjustment Algorithm (with Test Data) (14-10-2024)
Hello everyone,
I’ve been developing a risk management algorithm that adjusts the stop-loss dynamically based on previous trading performance. This algorithm responds to the trading results, expanding the stop-loss during winning streaks and contracting it after losses, allowing for more calculated risk-taking while aiming to preserve capital.
I’ve included two charts below to illustrate how this works:
- Top Chart: Trade outcomes over time, demonstrating a mix of winning and losing streaks.
- Bottom Chart: The stop-loss percentage over time, dynamically adjusting to the results of previous trades.
Additionally, I’ve shared the test data (visible in the screenshot) that reflects various market scenarios such as:
- Strong winning streaks
- Choppy market conditions
- Sharp reversals to losing streaks
- Sudden large losses
- Recoveries after losses
You can correlate the graphs with this test data to better understand how the algorithm responds in different market conditions.
Key features:
- Increases stop-loss after winning trades, allowing for more risk.
- Reduces stop-loss after losses, limiting further risk exposure.
- Minimum stop-loss is capped at 2%, ensuring a base level of risk management.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this approach. Does this dynamic stop-loss strategy align with your risk tolerance and trading style? Are there any improvements or tweaks you would suggest?
Easy Trip Planners (Easemytrip) – An outlier in OTA (14-10-2024)
Knowing all the moves from a long time, I’m surprised to see retail participation in EMT. If some one read this thread starting from post 1 to till date, the journey of EMT will easily breakthrough for anyone on how greedy the promoters are, and especially the allotment of bonus shares for every year is a big move to trap retailers, and once in a time EMT is trending under the top 3 in Twitter handles. Paid promotions and influencer marketing via offline channels are the reasons for trending this. And I feel even the profits are manipulated; that is why they keep on announcing the bonus to maintain the equity under books without giving dividends. For me, a company with sound profits having retail free float is on the higher side; not giving dividends is a betrayal, as companies are smart to allocate ESOPS, routing money via subsidiaries, related party transactions, higher depreciation costs, and many other ways that follow.
It’s too hard to see your confidence in this stock by looking at all these factors in EMT, and fundamentally no other travel-listed players are earning this much OPM except EMT itself, which is a reason for exiting the stock. Exit early and safeguard your investment and hard-earned money
And lastly, I wouldn’t surprise if they had people hired in Vakiepickr to promote this stock by stating some positive posts on EMT. Hahaha, this would definitely become the heights of marketing.

Electronics Mart India (EMI) – the next Titan/ D-Mart? (14-10-2024)
Hi, starting this thread to discuss about the Electronics Mart India (EMI) company stock, business and growth prospects. Posting my views on the stock:
-
Electronics Mart India (EMI), a Hyderabad based company. Started in 1980 by Pavan Kumar Bajaj who has no connection with the Bajaj Group’s Rahul Bajaj family.
-
The owner of Bajaj Electronics stores in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh and Electronics Mart stores in Delhi/ NCR region.

The largest Electronics retailer in South India and the 4th largest in India, following Reliance Digital, Croma and Vijay Sales.
-
The company launched IPO in 2022 at a price of 60 and now trading at 215. The stock has been in consolidation phase from the last 1 year with a range from 180-240.
-
Market leader in AP & Telangana, and expanding into other areas post IPO.
-
Has a consistent track record of growth, profits and is aiming to add around 25+ stores each year going forward venturing into other states and tier 2 & 3 cities.
-
Their strategy is to enter a market, penetrate deeply and become a market leader which is a strong moat over its competitors.
-
My preferred store to shop for any large electronic appliances, bought 2 TVs and 3 ACs and impressed with their customer loyalty.
-
They will match the price to the best price available from the Online stores Amazon/ Flipkart.
