44Kontron secures order worth millions from Czech Railways.
The project commissioned by the state infrastructure company SZ (Sprava zeleznic) on the route between the border with Germany and the towns of Dolni leb, Kralupy and Vltavoumit is worth around 26 million euros, the company announced on Tuesday in Linz, Austria.
Kontron had already received a EUR 34 million order for the expansion of a GSM-R communication system in the Czech Republic at the end of 2024. The orders will provide a wide range of voice and data services required for daily rail operations, it added.
Trading Part4 - Deepdive indicators 📈📉☕
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 (+0,19%)
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 (+0,19%) 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.
PS: I have found a clever script on TradingView for some of my stock screener filters. You can always display some criteria live - in the chart at the bottom right

Trading part3- more than hectic trades and coffee consumption ☕☕☕☕
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/
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 (-1,98%) or also $UBER (+0,19%) to see them. Or also my short 5min analysis for $MRK (-0,29%) 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!

Kontron and congatec launch manufacturer cooperation for Computer-on-Modules (COM) News from 14.05.25
$KTN (+1,59%)
a global leader in IoT technology, and congatec GmbH, a leading provider of embedded and edge computing technology, today signed an agreement to collaborate on the production of COMs, whereby Kontron will manufacture the congatec COMs.
It is planned that the cooperation will be extended to other areas in the near future.
The Kontron subsidiary JUMPtec GmbH and congatec GmbH, a wholly owned subsidiary of Deutsche Beteiligungs AG, are developers of COMs for embedded computing (COMexpress, COM-HPC, SMARC, Q7). Through this agreement, Kontron makes its broad international production network available for the manufacture of congatec COMs.
Due to the similarity of the COM modules and higher volumes, both Kontron and congatec expect cost advantages and will be able to actively control the tariff development, especially in the USA, due to Kontron's production facilities there.
This development is the result of congatec's strategy of pursuing a local-for-local approach in view of international trade and growing customer demand for geopolitical reasons.
Kontron, through its subsidiary Katek, manufactures as an ODM expert in 21 locations worldwide and provides local services in various industries, including medical, industrial automation, transportation, avionics and defense.
The Kontron Group will take over supply chain management, production and logistics for the fabless congatec Group.
Further cooperation is also being negotiated. Kontron and congatec are discussing possible partnerships in the areas of development, know-how exchange and joint sales and marketing activities, which, subject to agreement, could also lead to congatec acquiring an equity stake in JUMPtec.
Both companies are known for the highest quality standards and a broad and innovative technology roadmap with powerful partnerships with Intel, AMD, Qualcomm and NXP.
Trading part2- more than hectic trades and coffee consumption ☕☕☕☕
Link to the first post in which you will also find the link to all other parts https://getqu.in/cbIOkg/
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 (-1,83%)
.
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!

Trading Part 1 - More than hectic trades and coffee consumption ☕☕☕☕
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.

Kontron is struggling at the "point of control"
$KTN (+1,59%) Was bought last week at earnings, but is struggling at the POC. For the holding period of a few days, the spread is enough for me 😉
Even though I fundamentally think a lot of Kontron and I think it would be a good B&H stock, from a short-term trading perspective it will be exchanged for stocks where I see more potential in the coming days. Capital goes into $MMK (+1,64%) and $VRTX (-1,6%)
POC...price area with the highest volume in the visible area (yellow dashed line)
The yellow channel shows the standard deviation from the volume-weighted average price VWAP. The upper edge is currently almost exactly at the POC

Trading - more than hectic trades and coffee consumption ☕☕☕☕
The image of a trader is often characterized by countless monitors, charts and ticking price information. Hours spent drinking coffee, rapid decisions, lots of stressful trades - this is exactly how many people imagine trading.
But the reality is completely different! 😎
For a long time now, I've wanted to write an article about trading and give interested community members a deeper insight. You often hear the infamous killer argument: "Don't do it, 80% lose money." But trading is much more than just a game of chance!
For me, "trading" has developed into an exciting hobby over the years, through which I can with little time investmentbut a serious approacha nice additional income can generate 💰💰💰💰
If you're interested in this topic, let me know! I'll be publishing more posts on the subject in the near future - especially for anyone who wants to learn more about trading.
As my time allows, I might take a closer look at the following questions in posts:
- Trading vs. buy & hold - Which strategy suits whom?
- Requirements for trading - What should you bring with you?
- Time required - How much time is really necessary?
- Trade frequency - How many trades do I make as a part-time hobby trader?
- Capital - How much do I invest in my trades?
- Profit vs. loss trades - My balance sheet for 2025 YTD
- Income - What can you earn as a part-time trader?
- Trading setup - Saving the most exciting for last - Which indicators do I use?
And, of course, I am also happy to answer specific questions.
What there will most certainly NOT be here:
- ❌Dubious Telegram channels or invitations to YT, Insta or other social media channels
- ❌Trading signals or unrealistic promises of profit
- ❌"Hot" tips - you won't find them among my friends or relatives, nor here!
I'm happy to share my personal experiences, but without any hocus-pocus or get-rich-quick promises. It's about honest exchange for everyone who is interested in trading!
