India Inc hails NSG waiver, sees $40 bn potential----------------------NEW DELHI: As many as 400 Indian and foreign firms are seen as the beneficiaries of the far-reaching verdict in Vienna on Saturday where the 45-member Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) decided to resume civilian nuclear commerce with India.
India's apex industry bodies, which have hailed the decision, also feel that the country can now attract over $40 billion in foreign investment over the next 10-15 years as the result of private sector entry into India's nuclear power generation.
"The go-ahead to the nuclear deal will signal the building of scores of nuclear plants in India on assured fuel supply," said Amit Mitra, the secretary general of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (Ficci).
"This will trigger the participation of 200 firms with capabilities to operate, and maintain nuclear plants - but put on the Entities List by the US in 2005 for perceived possession of technologies for nuclear plants or dual-use technology."
That list has since been pruned to about four, giving the 200-odd companies full play in nuclear power production.
"We expect another 200 medium and small firms to get into the act as ancillary producers to the big companies, thereby giving a new direction to efficient and cheaper power production in the country," Mitra added.
The NSG's decision to grant India a clean waiver from its existing rules, which forbid nuclear commerce with any country, which has not signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), came at its meeting in Vienna Saturday afternoon.
The historic moment, which will end more than three decades of nuclear isolation for India, came after three days of intense diplomacy by the US and India in the nuclear cartel that controls the global flow of nuclear fuel and technologies.
Todays development is a major confidence-building move for the international community to engage with India especially in high technology trade," said Chandrajit Banerjee, director general of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
"It will provide opportunity for Indian manufacturers to supply spares and components to the global manufacturers of nuclear power plants besides providing business opportunities for Indian power plant construction companies."
The Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry (Assocham) that had conducted a survey among 300 chief executives recently also says that 400 firms - domestic and international - may get a chance to build nuclear power plants.
An overwhelming 85 percent of the 300 chief executives polled held the view that modifications to India's Atomic Energy Act of 1962 could help the country to generate some 20,000 MWe (unit of nuclear power) by 2020.
The modification - which the chamber suggested should be immediate by way of a presidential notification - is necessary to facilitate the entry of the private sector in nuclear power generation.
The act and the decades of India's nuclear isolation had resulted in capping the country's nuclear power generation capacities to an extent of just 3,900 MWe in over 60 years of independence.
As a result, out of a total installed generation capacity of about 145,000 MW of electricity, 70 is accounted for through thermal fuel and 20 percent by hydro, with nuclear energy contributing to just two percent.
The remaining capacities come by tapping the various sources of non-conventional energy such as solar, wind, biomass and tidal waves.
Following the NSG waiver, the India-US nuclear deal will head for the US Congress, which meets Sep 8 to discuss and approve the 123 India-US bilateral pact to seal the negotiations that were started more than three years ago.
The two countries are expected to formally sign the bilateral agreement when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh goes to Washington towards the end of September, eventually restoring nuclear trade with the US after a gap of 34 years.
The US and the rest of the world imposed economic sanctions when India first conducted its nuclear test in 1974.

MD, i like the question you ask .... it makes me think differently ... thnks ...
You are right in saying that a straddle is a strategy where you buy a call and a put at the same epiration and same excersice price.
But you are wrong in saying that the two transactions nullify each other.
Consider the following example.
Infosys trading at 2000.
You buy a call of 1975 @ premium 30
You buy a put of 1975 @ premium 15
Your total cash outflow = 45 / contract
Your total risk = 45/contract
Consider the following cases :
Infosys at expiration day trades at 1900
Your call is worthless, but you will have 30 /contract as profit for your put.
Infosys at expiration day trades at 2100
Your put is worthless, but you will have
80 /contract as profit for your call.
Infosys at expiration day trades at 1975.
Both your call and put are at-the-money and thus no profit.
-------------------------------------------------
To buy a contract you need to have a seller. The seller of the contract is called the writer of the option.
When the contract is terminated pre-maturely and the buyer asks the seller to buy or sell the contract, that is called excercising of a contract.
You can buy or sell a contract in as is form without excercising. Whereby, you treat it as any other money instrument.
The difference between an american and an european style option contract is that in an american style option, you can excersice the contract before its expiry date, whereas in an european one, you cannot.
Hope that clears all your doubts.

Buying a straddle or a strangle are identical, the only difference is in the risk/reward ratio and the probability of success.
Buying a straddle / strangle means buying one CALL and PUT option.
Buying a straddle means buying a CALL and a PUT at the same strike price with the same expiration date. Usually this strike price is at the current price of the underlying.
The Nifty is now at 2220. So the ideal straddle to buy would be the
Nifty- 2220 CALL and the Nifty 2220 PUT.
As these may have problems of low volumes, you can settle for the
Nifty-2200 CALL and the Nifty 2200 PUT.
The data given is for the 2200 Nifty CALL and PUT. The premium at which tese contracts would have been available today morning is given below:
Nifty 2200 CALL Premium - 46.35
Nifty 2200 PUT Premium - 29.00
Look at these premium of these two contracts and see how it varies with changes in the underlying (Nifty).

stoplosses

Posted by : sainik at 00: 00 (20th Dec 04)
Replied to kgopalrao | message
dear kgopalrao, i seem to have missed ur query the first time around. stoplosses can be set at 2 different levels 1. the level at which the max u can afford to lose in a trade. 2. technical levels based on the past price movement. in case of the first option, u are the best judge. in case of second option it depends on what time frame u are looing at . some of the levels at which stoplosses can be set are : 1. for a day trader, the first hour low works very well if u are a buyer and vice versa. 2. moving average levels : 9, 14. 20, 50, 100 , 200 days levels. 3. previous congestion zones : u can see them on the chart. reliance had a strong support b/w 488-490 since the bad news hit the scrip. so trading below that means, the scrip is weak. 4. important "event" levels : for instance today when reliance was 475, the news of buy back first came out . reliance went up to 488 but droppped down to 480 at the close. here u should get out of ur longs if it starts trading below 474-475. 5 cross overs of moving averages ; this is complicated and u need to check whether it would work for every scrip. 6. other methods, like fibonnaci numbers, rsi divergences etc. i follow the 9 dema for my style of trading. choose urs. but please be aware that there will be cases when ur stoploss gets hit and the scrip moves in the original direction which u thought it would move !!!. moral : there is no fool proof method of making money. if somebody tells u so, then there is no greater proof needed that he is a fool !!!! cheers ...

Good Morning ARG,
thnx for reproducing such as interesting & informative post @ board. Lord Ganesha is one of the most prominent deities in Hinduism. Ganesha has the unique distinction that his name is always invoked before any other God's name in any prayer service. let me share the meaning of this powerful mantra with you all---------------
*********************************************************************
"vakratunda mahaakaaya suryakoti samaprabhaa.

********
Salutations to the supreme Lord Ganesha, whose curved trunk (vakra-tunda) and massive body (maha-kaayaa) shines like a million suns (surya-koti) and showers his blessings on everyone (sama-prabhaa). Oh my lord of lords Ganesha (kurume-deva), kindly remove all obstacles (nir-vighnam), always (sarva-) and forever (sarvadaa-) from all my activites and endeavors (sarva-kaaryeshu).

VINAYAKA CHATHURTHI FESTIVAL - September 3, 2008
TODAY IS VINAYAKA CHATHURTHI - MAY THE SUPREME ENTITY WHO MANIFESTS AS GANESHA FOR OUR SAKE BLESS ALL BOARDERS, THEIR FAMILIIES, FRIENDS, ENVIRONMENT - SARVE JANAAH ALL ASESHA LEAVING OUT NONE WITH GOOD HEALTH, PROSPERITY, FREE FROM VIGNA ON LEGITIMATE PURSUITS. AND ULTIMATE FULFILMENT OF LIFE.
Vinayaka Chathurthi is a great festivalin southern and western India and only tolesser extent in eastern India and northern India. Only after invoking Ganesh Ji, all auspicious functions start in Bharat.
In North & East India, Ganesh ji is traditionally with devis, His sakthi known as Buddhi (intellect) and Sidhi (achievement). Bengals greatest festival Durga Puja starts with Ganeshs devi fetching sacred water from Ganga with accompaniment of drums and music. In the South, in most temples and pictures, Maha Ganapathi is shown alone. In some places he appears as Sakti Ganapathi vallabhaya saha - with Vallabha.
The elephant head is figurative clever poetic descrip of the qualities of the supreme omnipotent God. The eyes, ears, trunk the eyes small but powerful can see even the minutest thing in the universe, ears always active and hearing the most feeble prayers of devotees,sharp intellect which can give instantaneous directions, broad forehead showing wisdom, superb memory, trunk denoting immense strength for heavy duty, ever active, flexible to reach distant objects as well as very minute near objects. God, Controller of the Universe is ever active 24 x 7, alert, ready always to meet devotees prayers.
He is the SUPREME itself appearing in that most easily approachable God-form. rich or poor, or poorest of the poor seek Him No wonder Students line up before him to seek blessings before going to the examination hall. He is easily pleased with a devotionl offer of even one blade of durva grass, - easily available everywhere even in the footpath in those days. Cocoanut and modaka are the offerings. He is shown with modaka in his hand. Modaka from mudha all that which pleases you. everything, ultimately bliss. The sweet filling inside the modaka is known as - poorna - meaning full, the whole. like 100% guaranteed success. Sometimes he is shown as having in his palm the fruit Bijapura (pomegranate). He rewards devotee with fruit of actions. The name of the fruit itself gives out the secret. Can one count the number of dhana (seeds) in one fruit - imagine if each seed denotes one universe, how many universes aneka koti brahmandanam many crores of Universes all in his safe custody. He presides over them - visvotpathi, vipathi, samsthithakara their creation, final withdrawal and sustenance in the meantime.
NO WONDER GANAPATHI IS THE MOST POPULAR GOD FORM WORSHIPPED.
In Maharashtra Ganesh Chathurthi is something like a national festival full 10 days It was always observed as a festival, from time immemorial but it was Lokmanya Bala Gangadhar Tilak who gave the nation the present form people assemble in a common platform for worship forgetting all enmity and developing friendship.
In Karnataka it is noted as GOWRI GANESHA FESTIVAL. Goddess Gouri is worshipped on previous day, following which Ganesha worshipped on Chathurthi.It is like a family reunion, looked forward with great enthusiasm in all families.
In T.N Ganesh chathurthi is observed throughout. In city like Chennai, every street has its own Ganesh temple, and one could spot small Ganesh temples in front of big buildings, wherever roads cross, or wherever there is T formation when a street (road) takes off from another road. The festival is celebrated in all temples and houses.
Andhra follows Maharashtra pattern. With immersion of the idol after the 10 days Puja.
Request other boarder friends to help complete the ALL INDIA picture.

One more trend reversal signal could be Morning star
following from the book Candlesticks Fibonacci and Chart Pattern Trading Tools- R Fischer and J Fischer
(A morning star is a bottom reversal pattern formed by three candlesticks.
The first candlestick has a big black body, for this is still a
downtrend. The second candlestick is a star with a very small body
that is below the previous candlestick and has no connection to the
previous body. The third candlestick has a big, white body that should
cover at least 50 percent of the big black body from two days ago. In
the ideal form, the third candlestick body should trade with a gap to
the body of the star of the previous day. Should the third candlestick
be an engulfing pattern, this is also a valid trend reversal signal.)...
