As always, first the link to the first post, where you will also find the links to all the other parts https://getqu.in/cbIOkg/

Today there are a few more details on the indicators from part 3 https://getqu.in/9XGYtO/

As described in part 3, I start my analysis with the SMA 200 / 50 / 5 daysto get an overview of the trend.

Example $UBER (+0,56 %)

For me, an important setting for the SMA is that I always use the SMA regardless of my chart setting always on a daily basis. daily basis. This means that even if I have set the chart to weekly or 4h, it always shows me the SMA on a daily basis.

Example $UBER (+0,56 %) 1h hour chart - but the SMA are still on a daily basis, not like the default setting, which always refers to the chart - then the SMAs would be calculated on a 200 / 50 / 5 hour basis!

Next, I'll get the VRVP to see the volumes. I have set the chart to the range since Uber has been in an overarching sideways phase.

I can see the price area with the highest volume and the distribution where 68% of the volume has taken place.

My VRVP settings are as follows, I adjust the line size depending on the visible range - the larger the range, the larger the number of lines.

So, I now have a good overview of the trend after a few minutes.

Now it's time to continue with the VWAP. My anchored VWAP I place it in a prominent position for me. In this case the last low before the start of the sideways phase. This is how I see the "DNA" of Uber - How does Uber behave in the statistical areas of the volume-weighted average price.

For my short-term trades, I zoom into the close range, but the anchored VWAP remains. I only switch to the 1 hour chart and the last few months.

The white circles then show potential entries and exits for me. The orange circles at the bottom show the earnings, there's always a lot of movement😁

Of course, I also look in detail at the price action, i.e. the candles per time unit.

In principle, this describes my main procedure for determining the buy/sell point.

That's it 🤷‍♂️ has been working for me for a long time with the outcome as described in part 2 https://getqu.in/TVNdpR/

Because of the overview, I have hidden the VRVP in the VWAP views, but I always leave it on for my analysis.

Example anchored VWAP with VRVP and SMA5 for the short-term trend

Example anchored VWAP with VRVP and VWAP on a weekly basisI can see where the VWAP of the current week has moved. It's also nice to see how and where the big volumes of the week have positioned themselves 😁

So, that's a bit more detail on my setup. As you can see, with a little practice and routing, you can analyze a stock in a short time. For me, such an analysis usually takes no longer than 10 minutes and I know whether a trade makes sense for me and where to place my buy and sell orders.

$UBER (+0,56 %)

Uber share: Chart from 20.05.2025, price: USD 92.46 - symbol: UBER | Source: TWS

The share could be overheated in the short term, but the path of least resistance is likely to be the upside in the long term.

A key aspect of Ackman's investment thesis is Uber's potential in autonomous driving. In his announcement, he pointed out that the market for autonomous driving is potentially huge.

In recent years, Uber has strategically positioned itself to benefit from this development without developing the technology itself. Instead, the company is relying on a whole series of partnerships with several providers - also to ensure that no single provider achieves a dominant position and can dominate the market and dictate prices in the future.

Autonomous driving could reduce the cost of journeys, increase availability and significantly expand the addressable market.

Outlook and assessment

However, Uber is interesting even without all these future fantasies. I warned against the stock for years, but switched to the bull camp 1-2 years ago.

Uber has managed to expand its market position far enough to dictate prices - to drivers as well as restaurants and end customers. The business model is certainly not a win-win situation for everyone involved, but it has made the company highly profitable.

Free cash flow was positive for the first time in the 2022 financial year. In the 2023 financial year, FCF was USD 1.61 per share and in 2024 it was already USD 3.21 per share.

In the current financial year, an increase of 28% to USD 4.10 per share is expected. Uber therefore has a forward P/FCF of 22.3.

This means that Uber is even valued below average, the S&P 500 is valued higher and is unlikely to increase its FCF by around 20% p.a. in the coming years.

Thanks to the bad weather, the next part will be published before the weekend! 🌨🌨 Next week I'll be traveling for work from Monday to Wednesday - so long posts will be difficult. But maybe I'll be able to pick up some exciting insights from SAP & Amazon. 😊

I'm pretty busy, but if anyone happens to be at SAPPHIRE in Madrid... 🍻

Today I'll give you an insight into my trading setupbut first I'll briefly talk about the outcome bias. This is an important topic that can become a trap, especially at the beginning of trading.

Outcome bias

Outcome bias is the misconception that the quality of a trade is determined by the result. Anyone who enters into a trade on the straight and narrow and then makes a profit often thinks they have got the hang of it. I like to compare it to a casino: I bet on red, win and consider myself "strategic" 🤪😅

When trading, it is important to success or the strategy by the repeatability by repeatability. By clear rules. A strategic trade can lead to a loss. An intuitive decision can lead to a profit. Anyone who makes the latter the yardstick for their trading is undermining long-term success.

👉 Remember: In trading, it is not those with courage and luck who are rewarded in the long term, but the systematic ones!

This leads us straight to the first details of my setup.

What are my premises?

• I only trade shares - no derivatives, leveraged products, KOs, Forex or anything else

I have tried a few things, but for my trading behavior shares have proved to be the most sustainable with the best profit/loss ratio.

• Keep it simple - Only a handful of indicators

Over the years I have tried all kinds of indicators and oscillators. From RSI, MACD, Fibonacci, all possible trend lines, so that the actual chart progression was barely visible 🤪

• I only trade when it makes sense according to my rules

Trading not just for the sake of trading. Quality before quantity, if it doesn't fit or if time is tight, then I don't trade for a week or two.

Now that you know that my focus is only on equities, I'll move on to stock selection. In my opinion, this is just as important as chart analysis and deriving entry and exit points.

What are my filter criteria for screening?

• ADR Average Daily Range

The daily range is the range between the daily high and the daily low, a large range facilitates short-term trading, e.g. intraday or only a few days

• ADV Average Daily Volume
• $VOL
  Average daily volume multiplied by the last daily closing price

These two filters ADV and $VOL ensure the liquidity to get out of the trade at any time.

• Market capitalization

I am not a fan of penny stocks and very small market capitalization

• Gap greater than 5% on earnings

• Upcoming earnings

I also like to trade around earnings, there's often a lot of movement.

In general, I like stocks that are moving in a sideways trend, or prices that are at the VWAP or at one of the outer edges of the deviation bands.

What are my indicators for chart analysis?

• SMA 200 / 50 / 5 for trend determination

Attention ONLY for trend determination - is not used for entry/exit points!

• VRVP Visible Range Volume Profile - the volume profile on the Y-axis. You can usually see it on the left-hand side of my charts. This shows me volume areas where there was a lot of trading. I derive my entry/exit points from this indicator and the VWAP

• VWAP Volume Weighted Average Price - shows me the average volume-weighted price at the various time levels. I usually look at this on a monthly and weekly basis. For very short-term trades such as intraday also on a daily basis or on a session basis. I then use the "anchored" VWAP for the entry/exit prices. In return for the fixed values of the VWAP such as month, week or day, I can place it exactly where I want to see the VWAP from. Points for anchored VWAP are swing changes.

• Volume per time unit I usually hide it again after the first glance in order to keep a clear overview. It's about seeing the interest per candle.

Conclusion: I only use SMA and volume, no more, but also no less.

PS: A short "deepdive" on the indicators, the exact settings, etc. will follow in a separate post👆 https://getqu.in/Ka18zh/

In general, I always start my analysis on the stock's home exchange. First a quick look at the last 10 years in the weekly chart, then I continue with the daily chart looking at the last 2-3 years and then the close range of the last months or even just days, depending on how the time horizon of my trade is set up. In the close range, I also like the 4h, 1h or 15min chart. The whole thing is overlaid with the 3 SMAs 200 / 50 and 5 days for the short-term trend.

Once I have a good overview of the trend, I move on to the 2nd layout with VRVP and VWAP or aVWAP. I am always happy when significant volumes of the VRVP coincide with the VWAP or the bandwidths 1 and 2 of the anchored VWAP. According to my statistics, the success rate is highest here. Depending on which exchange I want to trade on, I then also set the chart to this exchange.

I could write endlessly about volume in connection with the VWAP, but that would go beyond the scope of this article. Volume highs, volume lows, POC, volume area, deviation bands 1 and 2, etc...

To see how I use these indicators, you are welcome to read my posts on $NOVO B (-0,91 %) or also $UBER (+0,56 %) to see them. Or also my short 5min analysis for $MRK (+0,38 %) which I recently created for my compatriot @7Trader recently. You can find them all in the feed of my profile from the recent past.

Should I go into more detail on charts & inferences in my future trading posts? Let me know in the comments!

So, that's it again for today - have a nice week!

Mayr-Melnhof daily chart:

When the anchored VWAP from the last swing change hits a volume peak, this is usually a good support. This has held at least since the beginning of May, but 100% is nothing on the stock market...

Today I'm giving you an insight into my trading routine! I'll show you how much time I invest, how my trades have gone so far in 2025 and how I use my capital.

• Time spent
• Trade frequency
• Profit/loss trades YTD 2025
• Capital employed

Time spent

I invest on average 5 hours per week in trading. But not just blindly!

Weekend preparation: 1 hour for stock selection & chart analysis

At the weekend, depending on my mood, the weather and other family activities, I prepare for the "trading week". This can be Saturday morning or Sunday evening. I spend about 1 hour selecting stocks and analyzing charts. I usually focus on 3 to a maximum of 5 stocks, for which I consider entry and exit points for the coming week.

The initial stock analyses are always carried out on the home stock exchange, I look at the price development at the various time levels, then superimpose my two layouts and I already have a clear picture and can decide whether trading makes sense. My focus is on trading qualitatively rather than quantitatively.

It's not about being active all the time, but only hitting the right setups. Therefore, "more time" is not a criterion for success. I know full-time traders who don't trade more than 3 hours a day.

During the week: About 30-45 minutes a day to execute & monitor trades

If the worst comes to the worst, you can intervene and add to your position or adjust your trading SL to protect your profits. If you are traveling for work, you can also rely only on the orders placed in advance - see the post in the feed from $ADYEN (-0,06 %)

.

Trade frequency, profit/loss trades YTD 2025 and capital employed

I am summarizing these points because it fits thematically and I can then cover several interesting aspects in one capital.

As of May 16, 62 trades have been closed, compared to 128 buy orders, which is because I usually enter in tranches.

• 128 buy orders
• 62 sell orders
• Total 190 orders,
• average 42 per month, just under 10 per week

There are weeks when I don't trade at all, others with more trades.

What is the balance of the 62 closed trades?

Only realized profits/losses count for traders. Book profits/losses are only temporary movements in the defined areas of risk management.

• 50 trades with profit (80%)
• 12 with a loss (20%)

And what does that mean in euros?

This question brings us to the next interesting piece of information. Is this more than just fun and enjoyment in trading? Or are you just one of the 80% who supposedly only lose money by trading?

The following figures are net, i.e. less KEST, order fees and other costs such as for the securities account, subscription to TradingView, etc.

Losses: €1,266.73 (9 trades <€100 loss, 3 trades in the range between €200 and €400)

Gains: 14.797,21€
(most of the gains are between 5% and 10% per trade)

Total net: 13.420,97€ (Jan-Mid-May)

The trading frequency makes it. It's not about the one big "tenbagger", but about an appropriate trading frequency with solid trades. It is easier to achieve 10 times 10% than to wait for a tenbagger and have the capital tied up in a trade for a long time.

Conclusion: Trading as a side income can be worthwhile - my average net income: 2,982.43€ per month for 5 hours of effort per week.

Anyone expecting to become a millionaire quickly will be disappointed - but as a hobby it is a solid regular income!

Question for dividend investors: How much capital do you need to invest to get a net dividend of around 3k a month?

Yes, yes 😅 it's clear that trading is different from pursuing a dividend strategy. It's just to illustrate that you can achieve a nice side income with relatively little capital compared to dividends.

This question brings us to today's final point. How much capital do I need to invest for short-term trading?

I keep about 40-50k as risk capital for short-term trading, with position sizes between 5k and 10k.

For beginners: Don't worry! I started with €500 to €1,000 per trade and gradually worked my way up. Confidence in your own setup is the key. The proceeds flowed into steadily increasing position sizes. Like B&H, it's a snowball effect!

In addition to my capital for short-term trading, I also have around 100k parked in longer-term "swing trades" (months to 1-2 years). But from a trading point of view it's the same, only the time horizon is different. Today's post, including the figures, only refers to short-term trading.

So, I hope this article has clarified your previous picture of a part-time trader.

In the next post I will reveal my trading setup, my indicators and my exact preparation for the trading week!

Link to the first post https://getqu.in/cbIOkg/

I will also link all parts in the first post and pin the first post in my profile.

This part of the post is about the following 2 topics

• Trading versus Buy&Hold
• What are the requirements for trading

To Buy&Hold I don't need to explain much more here 😉 It's a well-known and proven method, particularly suitable for more passive investors or those who don't want to deal with the stock market on an ongoing basis. Start with a savings plan - "time in the market" pays off!

When trading the situation is somewhat different. Active trading is required here. "Timing the market" is the motto. With the appropriate knowledge, a careful approach, good risk management and, above all, discipline, it is far more than just "gambling" or "gambling".

When I analyze my losing trades, the cause is almost always a lack of discipline, such as impatience or poor risk management. Sounds simple, but it's not... "The spirit was willing, the flesh was weak" 🤪🤷‍♂️

Conclusion:

• B&H and trading are not mutually exclusive, but can be combined well and sensibly. Part of my trading income, for example, flows into my B&H share on an ongoing basis.

• Trading means being responsible inform - plan trade - execute trade!

• Without a genuine interest in active trading and having fun trading, this will not work. If you just follow tips or influencers, you will almost certainly end up with the ominous 80% who only lose money (if only because the timing is no longer right).

The last two points in the conclusion are a good transition to the topic "Prerequisites for trading". In my view, in addition to the points already mentioned, the following aspects are essential in order to be sustainably profitable:

• Money management
• A trading tool
• Knowledge of chart analysis "a fool with a tool is still a fool"
• Discipline

Money management:

On the subject of money management, I would like to refer you to one of my older posts. It is essentially about determining the capital investment and the position size based on the maximum acceptable loss.

A proven guideline in trading is: Never risk more than 0.5% to max. 1% of your available capital per trade. You can find details on this in the following post https://getqu.in/tzhXqc/

Trading Tool:

Since trading is all about "timing the market", there is no getting around a trading tool. There are several tools on the market, and almost all of them offer a free version to get you started. The free versions are usually not sufficient for professional trading, as important indicators and data are missing. However, they are perfectly adequate for starting out and testing a little.

Tip: Use the free trial months of the subscription models to decide for yourself whether and which paid subscriptions are of interest to you.

I use TradingView https://www.tradingview.com and I'm really happy with it. In addition to the chart tool, there are lots of functions such as share screeners, market information, watchlists, price alerts, calendars for events such as earnings and dividends and a news feed. There is also a community, but I haven't used it yet.

Tip for beginners: TradingView also offers a demo account (paper trading), where you can safely start trading and test your strategies without using real money. Paper Trading — main functionality — TradingView

If you are interested in TradingView, I can offer you a referral link (just ask for it in the comments - I don't want to actively post the link here). Then we both get 15$ each credited to the fees. PS: I am not a Finfluencer and have nothing else to do with TradingView. It is not a source of income nor the goal of these posts - it would just be the usual friend-referral.

Knowledge of chart analysis:

Well, as written above, "a fool with a tool is still a fool". Of course, you can't do it without learning and dealing with the subject. The trading tools are all very helpful, but without understanding what you are doing with them and how to use the charts, indicators or oscillators, it won't work. Fortunately, today there are lots of tutorials on YouTube, communities etc. where you can acquire knowledge free of charge.

There will be more on chart analysis in the last part of the articles when it comes to my trading setup.

Discipline:

This last point is the most important; in combination with the 3 previous points, discipline is the key to success. Even long-time traders are subject to FOMO with accompanying ill-considered or not properly analyzed trades. This often ends the way it must... "Know yourself and your trading behavior!"

Please note, this article only reflects my experience. There are many different approaches to trading - there is no right or wrong. In the end, everyone has to find a setup that suits them.

Actually, I wanted to cover the first three points today, but as this post is already quite long, I'd rather end it in the spirit of TL:TR and will cover the points "Time spent" and "Trade frequency" in the next post. Possibly also "Profit and loss trades YTD 2025", which would fit in with the trade frequency / number of trades.

PS: as I'm traveling for work for the rest of the week, there won't be any more parts until next week.

From a trader's point of view, it was the right decision not to enter yet. The question now is whether this resistance can attract enough new buyers to become future support 🧐

The next few trading days will show. Patience is required - if the current area does not hold, it may well run back to the anchored VWAP (blue line) - area around USD 71.

Currently, the average volume of the weekly session is still slightly above the current price level of 84$ (green arrow) - the bulls have not given up yet 😁

$UBER (+0,56 %)
$DASH (+0,2 %)

Uber buys a majority stake in the Turkish food delivery service Trendyol GO for 700 million US dollars and expands its business portfolio.

The US service provider Uber has announced that it is acquiring an 85 percent majority stake in the Turkish food delivery platform Trendyol for 700 million US dollars, which is currently controlled by the Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba. According to observers, the move, which was reported by various media on Tuesday, is an attempt by Uber to tap into new growth markets.

The Trendyol Group is one of Turkey's largest e-commerce platforms. With Trendyol Go, it operates an app-based delivery service for food and groceries that serves customers nationwide and delivers food and meals from over 90,000 restaurants and markets via 19,000 couriers, according to the Reuters news agency. Trendyol Go delivered more than 200 million orders in 2024 and generated gross sales of around two billion US dollars - an increase of more than 50 percent compared to the previous year.

According to the news agency Bloomberg, the transaction will be settled in cash and without incurring debt. This was announced by Uber in a report to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday. If the authority gives the green light, the transaction should be completed in the second half of the year, according to the report. The Trendyol Go app will then continue to be available to customers, dealers and couriers as a separate service. However, according to Reuters, Uber plans to integrate functions of its delivery service Uber Eats over time.

Expansion of the business portfolio

Although Uber dominates the US market with its ride-hailing service, it is reaching the limits of its growth there. The US company is therefore trying to expand its business portfolio and tap into new markets. In mid-April, Uber announced that it would be bringing self-driving cars onto the roads in the USA from 2026 in collaboration with Volkswagen.

However, Uber withdrew its 950 million US dollar offer for the Taiwan business of Delivery Hero subsidiary Foodpanda a few weeks ago due to regulatory hurdles. Among other things, the government in Taipei had expressed competition concerns. Delivery Hero will probably retain its business in Southeast Asia. And Uber has now set its sights on the Turkish market with the Trendyol takeover.

It was also announced on Tuesday that the US food delivery service and Uber competitor DoorDash wants to take over the British company Deliveroo for 2.9 billion British pounds (3.4 billion euros). The boards of directors of both companies have agreed on the deal.
