• Buy as it happens not after it rallied for days to weeks and you chase in high.
• Have a set of trading plan to know when to profit take and have a trailing profit.

• As the banking stocks will be the biggest force to push the index, banking stocks that have all previously fallen into their mid term trend downtrend formation has now all shifted their trend.
• More importantly these stocks remain in their long term trend bullish uptrend formation hence in the long run they have more upside than downside unless evidently proven their trend has shifted.

• As the banking stocks did not show any robust performance since Year 2020 during the pandemic crash, they remain traded fairly at a low volume.
• Most importantly nothing has ever being voided yet and hence all have stated to form back their Mid term trend into bullish uptrend formation.
