    Should have booked profits in Britannia & hdfclife a few daysago. Both were 8-10% up and now back or even lower than the buying price levels. :wallbash:

    I'll add more of Britannia if it dips below 3500. Keeping an eye on M&M & ICICI as well.

    One small thing, the max volume out of the speakers is very low, even when everything is maxed out (from PS5 system's menu and the volume knob). It's pretty good when connected to my laptop though.
     
    What can be done in this case? Audio noob here but is amplifier the solution?
    Try changing the audio formats in PS5 between bitstream/dolby/stereo. If the USB DAC you're using is not not supporting a format, there could be volume limiting happening there.

    An headphone amp should work, but have never used them, so can't say for sure. You could also look at better USB DACs.

    I hope you have done your due diligence regarding Strides as well. Bumpy times ahead and will test your patience. Also please don't go all in at once.
    Nope, doing small additions. All my holdings are for long term. Will be patient and hold for a few years atleast

    OLX is not letting me post my PS5 for sale on it. Tried 3 times in morning and they rejected my ad. Any idea :/
     

    How much are you selling it for? I have a couple of friends who are interested in picking one and weren't lucky enough during the re-stocks. In fact quite a few people on the forums as well if you put it in the FT section...

    Was kinda excited for this game, as it is coming Day 1 on GP. Thought maybe I can co-op this with some of IVG members. Oh well. :unsure:

    Yeh, me too. Been wanting some Diablo style looter RPG for a while... I don't think its launching in India anyway - don't see it on PSN or XB Store.

     

    Anywho.... guess we'll have to wait and see how Ascent turns out.

    My investing philosophy is of long term but I am still a 24 year old who will be joining his first job next month hence my current capital is very limited.

    I totally believe in HUL and it's a great stock to keep in your PF for eternity but again because of limited capital, I am looking to pivot to other stocks which will provide greater returns than HUL. Those stock picks are also for 5-10-15-20 year horizon.

    If I already had monthly paychecks coming in then I wouldn't have thought of letting go of HUL. I am still in half mind because it defended my PF brilliantly last 2 weeks.

    FMCG is saviour in such times.

    At 24 I was doing regular bar crawls. My mid & late 20s are all a drunken haze....

     

    On a serious note, thinking of adding more of RIL between the 2050-2100 range, good price point to add?

    One of the most hardest skills to master is not sticking to your entry price. You need to add as the business performs.

    Initially I did stick, in hindsight it costed me some huge returns but now I have started to get a hang of it.

    For ex: My entry price for Laurus was around 60-70 (adjusted for split) and now avg. price is in 300.

    The recent add from the Neuland's drop also pushed my avg. but that's the only way to go about this, you can't go all in from the start.

     

    Also, look at Godrej Agrovet. Looks very promising to me and promoters have been on a buying spree too.

    I'm trying to learn the same. I am holding about 11 positions and I think the that's most I can manage (for now at least) and want to keep on adding to these based on charts.

     

    I have kept my GTTs to the entry price still, but slowly want to analyze the metrics and update them. Currently try and add when I see a dip of 2-4% from the highest LTP in that week, but need to do some more homework and analysis.

    100%. I use my regular Creative 2.1 desktop speaker by having them plugged into the 3.5mm port of my monitor.

    The HDMI from the PS4/Laptop plugs straight into the monitor.

     

    My problem is that my monitor has 1 HDMI,1 VGA, 1 Display. 

    Because I now use both laptop and PS4 with the monitor, I wish I bought one with 2 HDMI ports. Have to plug in and out every day.

    You can use multi-HDMI input boxes, they come with a physical switch and are inexpensive. They will be good enough for 1080p gaming. The 4K passthroughs might be expensive

    Regular 2.1 speakers. The ones on Amazon work with 3.5mm jack.

    You can use a USB DAC with a 3.5mm out and connect your speakers to it. I'm using the Logitech GX Pro wired headphones which come with a USB DAC and it works with the PS5. The console will detect it as USB headphones, but you should be able to connect speakers with a 3.5mm connector to it and it should work fine.

     

    Not sure if this will work - but you try using those check USB C to headphone jack phone adapters if you have one handy. The above should definitely work, but the USB-C to heaphone adapters are 500-700 and a decent USB DAC (Creative/Logitech) will be about 2k

    Don't just empty your bank accounts today, falls start with draw-downs. Keep some for coming days.

    Also, my bank's relationship manager will hate me after such a buying spree :D

    Yup, set my GTTs in such way that if they trigger, my funds will not be enough. Will get the cancelled notifications and then will decide if its OK to buy. Seems like we will have an eventful next week....

    But but but... ITC will still be at 203 after 4 years. 

    I'm strongly hoping against that :P 

    Else I'll use the 'boond boond se ghat bharta hai' policy and keep adding as it goes to 200 and take my 300 rs profit after 4 years :P

    Is etf better than mutual fund? Also, is there a way to check common stocks in different mutual funds?

    Yes, you can check in the fund details. It will have the stocks and their weight distribution listed

    It's impossible to compete with games like pubg now. Maybe those who live in cities and are familiar with the xbox might use it. But it won't be hugely popular I guess. 

     

     

    Pubg is not just a game. It's an ecosystem. And when you want to bring in mobile cloud streaming, you are directly competing with it. 

     

    Just think about it, even after its ban, people are playing f2p games like free fire. 

    I don't think cloud gaming will be positioned for your "casual" mobile gamer. It will be more geared towards the semi-casual gamers who may be still on the 360/XB1s to make the switch to GamePass Ultimate without needing to shell out 50k for the hardware.

     

    XCloud is more of a cutting edge service aimed at more mature gamers. The PUBG crowd won't care for it, but it will be helpful to people who have invested in the PS5 but also want to take advantage of Gamepass without investing in the console or a gaming PC. I have friends on the PS5 considering the XSS to tap into Gamepass, they won't have to spend on the console if XCloud becomes a viable option, provided their app works well on Android TVs etc

     

    It is most definitely a service for the metros and cities with a decent internet infrastructure.
