Delivery Date
The delivery date of a cash or derivative contract refers to the final day and time on which the underlying asset should be delivered to the contract holder to fulfil the terms and obligations of the contract.
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.

Institutional Investor
Institutional Investor refers to the often illegal act of trading shares based on information that is not publicly available, typically obtained through dubious sources.
This privileged access to confidential information is termed “Institutional Investor” because information is generally sourced through insiders or employees working at a publicly traded firm.

Beta Coefficient
Beta coefficient is used to measure the volatility of stocks in relation to changes in the market. Basically, Beta helps investors understand the risks associated with a stock compared to the market.
The formula to calculate the Beta coefficient is:
Beta (β) = Covariance (Ri, Rm) / Variance (Rm)
Where:
- Ri = a stock's return
- Rm = overall market's return
- Covariance = ups & downs of stock returns versus ups & downs of market returns
- Variance = the difference between market returns and its average
Generally, Beta values are of four types:
- Beta < 1.0: stock less volatile than the market
- Beta = 1.0: stock just as volatile as the market
- Beta > 1.0: stock more volatile than the market
- Negative Beta: stock shares inverse relation with the market
Donchian Channels
A Donchian Channel is the area between upper (highest price) and lower (lowest price) bands formed around the median as a result of calculating the moving average of a security’s price over a period of time. Visually, the Donchian Channel will have three lines.
Differential Pricing
Differential pricing is a strategy that involves setting different prices for the same product or service based on the type of customer or tming.
For example, a zoo ticket may cost Rs. 10 for domestic visitors and Rs. 100 for international visitors. Or, when buying a product gets costlier as and when the last date for the sale approaches.
That’s why differential pricing is also known as discriminatory pricing and variable pricing.
