I took a position in Ola Electric (OLAELEC) on 20th Aug 2025 at ₹47.07, just as the stock showed signs of recovery from its 52-week low of ₹39.60. The momentum looked promising, especially with the company securing PLI certification for its Gen 3 scooter portfolio.
By 28th Aug 2025 the stock had climbed to ₹53. Since I had a very small risk and my 3-5% target got achieved I exited the stock with more than 10% gains. But after 3 days stock hit 65 rs in no time. The decision was driven by volatility concerns and the stock’s tendency to swing sharply. There was an over hang of trump tarrif that was also creating fear of losing good profit in less time so the exit.
I started trading during my college days. Saved up around ₹5k from part-time work and invested it in a small-cap stock. After a few months, it grew to ₹15k. I booked profits and that win gave me the confidence to keep learning about markets.
My biggest trading win was through Bank Nifty option selling. The key lesson I learned is that discipline and proper risk management are the real keys to consistent growth in trading.
On the investment side, about a year back I diversified into Nifty Bees and Gold Bees. Even during the recent market fall, my portfolio stayed positive — reminding me how powerful diversification can be.
