Webinar on ‘Do Chart Patterns Work?’

 

The Department of Commerce, CommUnity of Deen Dayal Upadhyaya College in collaboration with Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) recently organized a webinar on ‘Do Chart Patterns Work?’ with Prof. Sanjiv Das. The webinar was held on 11th October 2021 from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm through the platform ‘GoToMeeting’ in an online mode. Around 99 students and faculty members attended the webinar.

The webinar commenced with a brief introduction of the speaker for the session Prof. Sanjiv Das.

Prof. Das explained that technical charts  constitute an important yardstick to assess the stock market. He stressed that ‘a picture is worth a thousand words’ when he began to show the various types of graphs that are usually used in analysing stock markets like line graphs, bar graphs and Japanese candlestick charts. He also discussed the reasons for the crashing of stock market during the announcement of lockdown and the upliftment of the market thereafter by referring to a well-known principle of Dow Theory ‘all information gets discounted by the market (stock market indices)’.He described some basic chart patterns like support, consolidation and candlestick pattern and the strategies that can be used by the prospective investors among the participants to effectively reap the benefits of investments.

 

 

While talking about the concept of support, he took the examples of some prominent Indian companies like Reliance Industries Limited and Larsen and Toubro to display how share prices will often rise after reaching a particular lowest price which can easily be forecasted through past interpretation of the same situation. This is because the big investors will always start buying the shares of that particular company after the price hits a specific low as they don’t want to incur a loss. He said that an amateur investor should follow what the big investors are doing to avoid losses in the stock market.

To make the participants understand the concept of consolidation, Prof. Das presented a chart of Nifty 50 and explained that when prices regularly move up and down in a small range, it is known as consolidation and whenever the share price breaks out on the upper side, the market is bullish and one must buy the share immediately but if the price breaks out on the lower side and keeps on decreasing, it is best to sell the shares to avoid stock loss. He took the examples of some companies which he had been tracking to demonstrate this concept.

To clarify the concept of bullish engulfing, Professor took the example of crude oil. It is a candlestick pattern that forms when a red candlestick is followed the next day by a green candlestick.

Towards the end of the session, Prof. Das took a few queries of the students and encouraged them to keep on tracking the progress of the stock market on their own and to always follow a disciplined approach while investing. He stated that following the simple strategies and techniques is great instead of using complicated tools, especially if one does not have enough time to spend on analysing the stock markets.

At the end, Prof. Das advised the students to enroll in GFMP and GFMS courses as it is forecasted by various reports that BFSI (Banking, Financial Services and Insurance) sector has many job opportunities in the upcoming years. The concluding remarks of the session were given by Dr. Meghna Aggarwal who thanked Prof. Sanjiv Das for conducting the session and hoped that he would once again conduct a follow-up session on the same in the future.

Alumni Committee, Department of Commerce organized an interactive session with the B.Com (Hons) students on the topic ‘Pre-Requisites of a Placement Drive’ on 16th October,2021 at 9.30 AM via virtual platform.

Zuctiva 2018 - Commerce department’s inter-college festival Zucitva (derived from Sanskrit word Shuchita) seeks to spread the idea of purity, integrity and honesty in our personal, professional and business lives as an expression of solidarity with the ideal of conscientious commerce. Toward the ideal of conscientious commerce, our department fosters a unique set of values among the students, e.g. be a go giver rather than forever trying to become a go-getter; be a good follower rather than forever pushing hard to become a leader; serve to deserve, first deserve than desire; be a sporting loser rather than a megalomaniac winner; pursue goodness over greatness and honeybee like consumption. In pursuance of this ideal Zuctiva’18 organized various activities and events like Forensic Accounting, Corporate Panache, Agritales, Business Quiz etc. Dr. Anju Gupta, Director of Non Collegiate Women Education Board(NCWEB), University of Delhi inaugurated Zucitva’18.
