EBITDA MARGIN
Definition of EBITDA MARGIN
EBITDA margin is the ratio of Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA) by revenue, represented as a percentage. It is used to understand whether a company is profitable and as a valuation technique.
The formula to calculate EBITDA margin is: EBITDA Margin = (EBITDA/Revenue)*100
Just like EBITDA, the EBITDA margin also excludes non-cash expenses. That’s why a positive EBITDA margin doesn’t necessarily mean that a company is profitable.

Oversold
Oversold is a term that is used to denote that a security's price has dropped sharply, and the broader market sentiment indicates a high probability of rebound or price correction in the near term. It implies that the selling pressure is likely to be nearing exhaustion. Traders use indicators such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to detect oversold levels. When the RSI level is below 30, the particular security is oversold. An oversold condition implies that the price decline may be due for a pause or reversal, but it is not a sure sign of a price increase.
Market Maker
A market maker is an individual or a firm that continuously quotes bid (buy) and ask (sell) prices in order to provide liquidity and ensure smooth trading. They act as intermediaries, buying from sellers and selling to buyers from their own inventory, which facilitates smooth, efficient trading and reduces price volatility for other investors. This role is generally played by financial institutions like brokerage firms or investment banks.
Volume
Volume represents the total number of shares or contracts traded in a security during a specific period. High trading volume often confirms the strength of a price movement, such as a stock breaking out of resistance with heavy volume, while low volume may indicate weak investor interest.
Holdings
Holdings are the financial assets in the portfolio of an investor or company. They can include stocks, bonds, derivatives, commodities, currencies, and more.
Equity Delivery
In equity delivery, shares are delivered to an investor’s Demat account after the settlement period. That’s why it is called equity delivery. However, equity delivery is also known as delivery trading and long term investing.
For example, let’s say you place an order for 10 HDFC shares on Tuesday with a view of holding onto them for the long term. The trade will be settled on Thursday shortly after which the shares will be delivered to your Demat account.

Positional Trading
Positional Trading is a trading strategy where a trader keeps their position (long or short) for weeks to months. Unlike intraday trading or swing trading, positional traders do not pay attention to minor price fluctuations and focus on fundamental analysis, economic trends, and long-term technical patterns to predict the overall direction of a security. This strategy is less time-intensive and is often preferred by traders who are looking to capture major moves in the market with lower transaction costs.
