Lump Sum
Definition of Lump Sum
Lump sum refers to a one-time, single payment made in a single installment, as opposed to a series of smaller periodic payments. It commonly refers to a large sum of money paid at once, like a mutual fund investment or a share market investment, rather than spread out over multiple payments like SIPs.

Exponential Moving Average
Exponential Moving Average (EMA) is a technical indicator used to follow price trends over a specific period of time. EMA assigns more weight to recent prices than older prices. The formula to calculate EMA is:
Exponential Moving Average = (K x (CP - PP)) + PP
C: Current Price of stock, currency, commodity, etc. P: The EMA of preceding periods K: Exponential smoothing constant
A Simple Moving Average (SMA) is used to calculate the value of the first period. Furthermore, the EMA can be used to identify support and resistance areas. However, it may not be optimal for identifying precise entry and exit points.

Cash Reserve Ratio
Cash Reserve Ratio (CRR) is the amount of liquid cash a bank has to deposit with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), calculated as a percentage of the total deposit of the bank. The latest Cash Reserve Ratio in India is 4.5%.
There are two important uses of CRR:
- It acts as a reserve or collateral because banks borrow money from the RBI
-
The RBI decides the interest rate for borrowing based on the CRR
These two pointers become extremely important during high inflation as the RBI can hike interest rates with the assurance of having collateral from banks.
Abc Wave Theory
Abc Wave Theory or Elliot Wave Theory is used to determine the direction of the stock market by identifying recurring waves or patterns over the long term. The theory is named after Ralph Nelson Elliott.
5 Motive or Impulse Waves are formed if the movement is in the direction of the trend. 3 Corrective Waves are formed if the movement is against the direction of the trend.

Capital Gains Exemption
Capital gains exemption is the tax break that a government offers on profits earned by selling assets. Generally, an investor must pay a tax on the short-term capital gains or long-term capital gains earned.
But in certain cases, the government allows investors to offset taxes. For example, if an investor sells property and reinvests the entire amount back again into another property, they can avail of capital gains exemption.

Brokerage
Brokerage is the fee that an investor or trader must pay to a brokerage in exchange for its services. Brokerage varies from platform to platform. But, broadly speaking, brokerage on intraday, futures, and options trading is known to be higher than equity delivery (investing).
Anchoring and Adjustment
Anchoring is a bias that drives people to make decisions that are based on (anchored to) pre-existing notions, ideas, and suggestions that may or may not be true.
Adjustments around anchoring are common as it becomes a starting point for many when it comes to decision-making.
For example, someone is anchored to a financial model or strategy. They may choose to use the anchor in situations where it may not fit and as a result, may end up getting an unfavorable outcome.
