Share Market Basics

2009-01-10T22:39:00.000-08:00

Many of us want to try our luck in stock market.Its one of the best methods of making money.But before investing money in stock market, it is always wise to understand the basics of stock market,its jargon etc.

So I thought of making a brief tutorial on Share markets so that you can start investing money with a bit of knowledge.

The most important and the most basic term involved in the stock market is a Share.

So what exactly is a share??

To explain in simple words, A Share is a document that is issued by the company to the Share holder, which entitles him as one of the owner of the company.

By owning a Share you can earn a portion of the companies profit or by selling them you can get capital gain.

So your sum will be a dividend plus the capital gain.

A Companies stock price determines what the investor thinks about the company.It need not necessarily tell whether a company is worth or not.These stock prices will be affected by the market news,opinion of the investors and various forms of the company.Publicly traded companies are required to report quarterly on their financial status and earnings.

Note that once you own a share you will be having the right to vote against certain company issues. And owning share does not guarantee of any returns and you can lose your money also.

Now to start trading you have to contact someone called Broker.They are licensed members,through whom every transaction takes place.These Brokers generally deal with very large volume,so they do not entertain small investors.So small investors are supposed to contact what are know as the sub-brokers.

An investor must contact the sub broker to make transactions.Then the sub-broker will contact the main broker to make the transactions.

In next post you will be learning about What exactly investments are and When to invest??

Tips for new bloggers...

2008-10-09T10:55:00.000-07:00

Don't launch your blog until it is properly setup.

Many people launch a blog, that is not fully setup. The Layout design may not be proper or the RSS feed may not be working correctly.So before you launch your blog make sure that your Layout design is complete, RSS feed is working properly ,you are setup to ping to the search engine or directories and your blog is optimized for search engines.Day 1 is the most crucial day because without launching with all these things in line it can hurt the future success of your blog.

Choose a Unique topic and stick to it

If your blog is about trekking then stick to it.Dont try to include pages of ebooks or something like that,it will decrease your pagerank. And dont try to copy the content from another website, Search engine will be able to find out that you have copied the contents and there is every possibility that your pages wont get indexed.

Be consistent

Make a schedule and stick to it. Update your blog frequently.May be four times a week should be sufficient.The more frequently you update your blog ,the higher will be your pagerank. Don't blog daily and then skip a whole month.

Communicate with your readers

If you need a comment box to your blog plz visit http://www.cbox.ws/

Keep it short and sweet

You may write a book on web guidelines,that's great but people will find it easy and more interesting, if it is short and is upto the point.Most of the time, readers dont like to read long articles , so keep it short and sweet.

Write something unique

Add some flare to your blog. Keep your readers on their toes by doing something unique, funny or something that should attract the readers. Whatever unique thing you do, it can really help keep your readers coming back for more.Add some pictures to spice up your blog.

Dont expect miracles

Information about creating and submitting sitemaps

2008-10-08T10:26:00.000-07:00

Well if you dont know what a site map is, then here is a brief introduction to it

What's a Sitemap?

In general, there are two types of sitemaps.

The first type of sitemap is a HTML page listing the pages of your site - often by section - and is meant to help users.
XML Sitemaps - usually called Sitemaps, are a way for you to give Google information about your site. In its simplest terms, a Sitemap is a list of the pages on your website.
Creating and submitting a Sitemap helps make sure that Google knows about all the pages on your site, including URLs that have errors.

Sitemaps are very helpful particularly when your blog or website has

Flash content or Ajax code.(Because bots find difficult to crawl through these pages)
If your site is new, then googlebot will have a difficult time to find your blog...so submitting sitemaps will help googlebots
Your site has a large archive of content pages that are not well linked to each other, or are not linked at all

Adding Sitemap to Web Master Tools

First register to google web master tools and verify your site.
After verification go to Sitemaps and click on add sitemap.
Then select Add general web sitemap.
Then open a new tab then go to your blog.
There will be RSS feed button in top right corner (in Internet Explorer).
Click on it and copy the code

Then paste it in my sitemap url in google webmaster tools
Then click on Add general web sitemap and your site map will be submitted to google
It will take 1 or 2 days to analyze your pages and it will give you the all the information about crawl errors and about indexing etc

A RAILWAY TRACK TREK TO REMEMBER

2008-09-30T22:31:00.000-07:00

MY FIRST TREK EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!

About Dudhsagar: Dudhsagar is a waterfall in the Karnataka- Goa border. It is on the route connecting Londa in Karnataka to Vasco in Goa. It can be approached either from Kolem in Goa or from Castle Rock in Karnataka. Dudhsagar Falls (literally meaning The Sea of Milk)

Six of us (Anil, Anirudh, Kani, Akshar, Cena, and Suman ) left to Dudhsagar from Bangalore on Friday evening .We started our journey on a train...... It was a tiring journey to me , because i couldn't sleep well...(but others did!!)
We were in Castle Rock railway station at 4.30 in the morning.Actually its a very small town and only railway employees stay there....We relaxed in railway guest house till 6.30 am ,and started our trek.

We were not knowing the distance from Castle Rock to Dudhsagar falls. We asked many people in the station and their answer varied . Within few minutes we were walking on the tracks surrounded by dense forests.
There were leeches all around the place. It brought back my memories of my friend Puneeth(putti) who had done a similar trek on Sakleshpur .

This is a busy route with many trains running and we could find trolley men all along the route. Also, the bridges and tunnels are not scary.....(but putti had told me that it would be scary)

(Dense forest)
we found a beautiful waterfall,which was small ,next to the track. There we had
our breakfast and it was already 9.00 am...
Then after the small breakfast we started our trekkin....After walking for 5km, just before the fourth tunnel, we crossed into Goa .....

In another half an hour , we reached a station called Karnazol or something like that . A goods train was waiting for signal at this station. The station master told us that a train was expected to arrive shortly and we could take

that train go to Dudhsagar. When we said that we had come to do a railway track trek, he told us that we were crazy. But anyway, he was a nice guy and he told us that we need to walk another 11 km for the falls.
We resumed our walking there..... After resting for 30 minutes near the station we started our trekkin again......
It was around 2.00 pm when we reached Dudhsagar Railway station...we were literally exhausted we didn't even had water bottles with us ......
Then we came to know that Dudhsagar falls was still a km to go...

Dudhsagar falls has a marking approximately equal to 42/000 marking, we had trekked for 16 kms from Castle Rock. The view of the falls came as a relief to us. A railway bridge passes through the dudhsagar falls.
It was filled with water. The falls had formed a small pond at the base. But it would have been a disaster if we had thought of swimming there....The force of the water was too much....

But we did swim in another pool which was to right of the falls....There were few people near the falls. We were the only ones who had taken the trouble of walking while others had come on train (available from Goa side).
After swimming in the water for 2 hours or so....we left to dudhsagar railway station and we waited for the train for around 2 hours...It was 6.00 pm...We were worried and it started raining heavily.......To our luck a goods train came and stopped in dudhsagar railway station
and we boarded the goods train, it was a nice experience to go on a goods train......Then we got down at Kolem and from there we went to Ponda and stayed there .....The next morning we left to Panajim and we had our breakfast there.......
But goa wasn't so much fun as that of dudhsagar.........
It was raining heavily....so we couldn't enjoy much in Panajim......though we had got a free room.

Goa experience will continued in the next post.....
THINGS THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

There will be no food available in any of the stations
TIME NEEDED: 4-5 hours

THINGS REQUIRED FOR THIS TREK

Torch
Water Bottle
Food(Chapathis, Bun)
Cap
Umbrella
Basic Items(clothes.....)

If you love trekking Plz watch man vs wild .......

HOW TO INCREASE UR TORRENT SPEED
Here we are actually forwarding the port that bit torrent uses.....
1)First go to start & click on run
2)Type cmd
3)A command prompt will open...here type ipconfig
(ipconfig displays your ip address,Default gateway and subnet mask)
4)Note down the default gateway which will have a default value of 192.168.1.1
and note down the ip address which will be 192.168.1.2
5)Now go to the internet explorer and type 192.168.1.1 in the url bar
6)It will ask for the username and passwd which is admin and admin respectively
7)Now a page will open which is your router page
Here if ur modem is new your router page will display dataone.....
else it will display mtnl or something like that
if it is a new modem

Goto advanced > and goto NAT(network address translator)
Here type your ip address i,e. 192.168.1.2
And your port is forwarded now

If it is an old modem

Goto advanced>virtual server
There give the name as bittorrent
Then the IP address as 192.168.1.2
Then open your bit-torrent client or any torrent client goto connection and note down the port
Then type the port number that has to forwarded for eg:50253

Then goto ur bittorent client and click on preferences
here set the values as shown in the picture

Take a look at my torrent speed while downloading Prison break (one of my fav )

MAKE UR WINDOWS GENUINE
1) start > run > "regedit" (without the quotes of course)
2) go to the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WPAEvents\OOBETimer
...and doubleclick on it. Then change some of the value data to ANYTHING ELSE...delete some, add some letters, I don't care...just change it!
now close out regedit.
3) go to start > run > "%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a" (again, dont type the quotes)
4) the activation screen will come up, click on register over telephone, then click on CHANGE PRODUCT KEY, enter in this key

BOOKS YOU NEED

(1) Puzzles to Puzzle you - Shakuntala Devi
(2) More Puzzles - Shakuntala Devi
(3) Puzzles and Teasers - George Sammers
(4) Brain Teasers - Ravi Narula
(5) Quantitative Aptitude - R.S Agarwal
(6) Verbal Reasoning - R.S Agarwal
(7) Previous Papers

SCHEDULE:

Now lets start of with the schedule :
DAY 1 : Start off with Puzzles to Puzzle you - Shakuntala Devi and finish as mush as possible.Decide to finish the book and then call the day off. Note down the sums which, you are not able to solve or need the solutions to which you are not able to solve . When you finish reading the the whole book, go back to those questions which you were not able to answer and and try find out the solution to it from the net or from your friends .Dont try to remember the method try to understand it.

DAY 2 : Start Verbal Reasoning - R.S Agarwal .
In this you just have to do the Puzzle Test Chapter fully , and have a look at the Number, Ranking and Sequence Test chapter. It contains fully George Sammers type question on easier scale but you would be able to understand the basic logic of solving George Sammers type questions.Finish off the whole book during the second day.There is just one or two methods to solve these sort of questions and the explanation is very clear .Once you get the method , you can solve al the puzzles in this, but just in case do go through all the puzzles. there have been puzzlesin previous papers from here.Once ou get the method well, there willnot be any revision necessary in this book . But you will have toconcentrate on the method.

DAY 3 : Now back to More Puzzles - Shakuntala Dei and follow the same procedure you followed for the first book.

DAY 4 and DAY 5: Start off with George Sammers book and by solving the puzzles. The first half is easy, but dont be worried if you are not able to solve them. Even if you solve one or two its enough , the rest you just have to use the scheme and the solutions and then understand the puzzle thoroughly. Many papers have similar sums but with the some internal changes. Try to finish the first half in a day and startoff the second half . The second half is relatively tougher, and it will be very confusing.It is enough if you are able to solve some. The second half ,even the solutions will confuse you. So just solve as many as you can. The rest you can make use of the soultions . If they are too complex. Leave them aside. Note down the sums that you couldnt solve or could solve only using the solutions and list them . When you are finish the whole book, just revise all the sums, giving impotance to the ones that you have listed . It is okay even if you sit with George Sammers for three days. But you must be able to undertsand all the question in the first part. The second part ,atleast maybe few sums are optional.

DAY 6 : Take your quantitative Aptitude book by R.S Agarwal and workout the following chapters fully. Note down tough sums .The chapters to be done are :

(1) Time and Distance (very important)

(2) Time and Work

(3) Pipes and Cisterns

(4) Trains

(5) Boats

DAY 7 : Revise Shakuntala Devi book-1 and revise it well. Its not necessary that you have to work out the porblems. Just check if your method is correct . The sums you have listed, give them extra importance. By the end of the day , you should have mastered Shakuntala Devi book.

DAY 8 : Revise the book-2 of Shakuntala Devi , Follow the same steps as that of the day7.End of this day you should have mastered both Shakuntala devibooks .

DAY 9 : Revise George Sammers, such that you can easily solve the whole first part . The second part , leave it , if it is tough.

DAY 10 : Check out Ravi Narula. The sums are tough . It will be enough if just go through the solutions and understand them . Some sums are asked in papers.( There is one questin abt some ANYMAN reaching ANYWHERE. His tyre gets punctured and he reaches late.Ifhis tyre got punctured earlier / later then he would have reached earlier/later. How far did he travel..soemthing like that).that is form this book . Many papers have this sum repeated. Ravi Narula is just optional, but I suggest that you go through all sums and their solution atleast once.Dont take too much time on Ravi Narula. Just three or four hours would be sufficient.

1. Group SMS server-Group SMS is a very much useful service. We can have groups of colleagues and classmates and then send them SMS alerts very easily.-Adil

2. Intelligent water spray system-An intelligent water spray system should be able to detect human presence and control the spray accordingly. To detect human presence a PIR sensor calibrated to human heat signature can be used.- Nilam

3.Artificial Vehicle- Microcontroller based vehicle

4.Micromouse-Microcontroller based Robot-
The mouse is essentially composed of three main components: the drive, sensing and control sections. It has its own power supply, usually consisting of primary or rechargeable batteries. The mouse should not be larger, either in length or width, than 25 centimeters. There is no restriction on the height.
The maze shall be a 16 x 16 square array of 180 mm x 180 mm unit squares. The mice are completely autonomous robots that must find their way from a predetermined starting position to the central area of the maze unaided. The mouse will need to keep track of where it is, discover walls as it explores, maps out the maze and detect when it has reached the goal. Having reached the goal the mouse will typically perform additional searches of the maze untl it has found an optimal route from the start to the center. Once the optimal route has been found, the mouse will run that route in shortest possible time.
Mice can use various searching algorithms.
