Back in India, Anvay going to Bengaluru and losses continue

22-July-2023

Finally, Anvay got into #Bengaluru campus of Manipal Institute of Technology. He will be leaving on 23 July to start a new phase where he will be of his own. It's an amazing feeling but also an emotional one. Seeing him grow from a child and now to set him free. Hope he finds his path for a successful life. I am back in India to see him off and drop him to the college in Bengaluru. 

2023 though going well, it's year of change. Anvay is moving out, later, Pallavi and Myra moving to Thailand. My father also has to move out as no one at home. Later is due to the fact that my job is at Bangkok, Thailand, and I don't want to shift. It's an impact and outcome would have been different if I would have decided to stay back in India. My move also impacts Pallavi's parents who will also be lone back here. It's a difficult decision and a very emotional one. I am not sure, what is correct, but I am bit tired of running. 

My trading has been worse this year and impulsive trades are not helping. I took few trades to help me out of losses, but then same mistakes and it didn't turn out well. I ended up wiping out all the profits I made on Infosys trade. I definitely need to slow down and alter my ego and strategy. Sometimes, I had a thought, should I let go this part of my life. It's too much and too long. It's not working out the way I want. I am not sure if I am too ambitions on this. Going in next few weeks, I will try to focus on equity side and avoid options or futures trading. I have bought #LIC and #Infosys (back again after the bad results). I think IT is a good, staggered buy, and returns in next 2 years will be decent. With that view, I also have diverted almost all the mutual fund investments to the IT funds. 

Noting special happening, but I will be travelling a bit in the coming days. Going to Bengaluru this Sunday, and then will be travelling to Thailand on 03 Aug for an important deployment, and then may have to travel back to pick Pallavi and Myra. There are few planned events outside Bangkok, towards end of Aug. 

Happy weekend!
