Chapter 7 - chapter 7

On the morning of 27th July, Aryan Tiwari sat in front of his computer at exactly 8:00 AM.

Ever since he had started trading stocks seriously, his biological clock had adjusted itself to market time. Earlier, when he had a job, he struggled to wake up before 9. Now, even without an office, he was more punctual than ever.

The first thing he opened was the mysterious app on his phone—KaalDrishti.

The prediction hadn't changed.

Reliance Industries was still expected to hit its upper circuit around 10:00 AM, touching ₹2,730, exactly as the app had shown earlier. Aryan's eyes lingered on the screen for a moment. This was no longer excitement—it was calm confidence.

Next, he opened the Retail Investors WhatsApp Group, where messages were already flooding in.

"How much do you think Reliance will go up today? I bought yesterday, feeling nervous now."

"It rose too fast. Might correct today."

"I feel it will fall. The market can't keep rising forever."

Aryan didn't reply. He had learned that most retail traders panicked easily—chasing rising stocks and selling the moment fear appeared. Very few actually trusted their own analysis.

At 9:15 AM, the pre-open session began.At 9:30 AM, the market opened.

Reliance opened strong, jumping straight to ₹2,680.

The group suddenly went quiet.

Aryan stared at the live chart, watching the price climb steadily.₹2,700…₹2,720…

At 9:58 AM, the price touched ₹2,728, just a few rupees below the upper circuit.

"It's about to hit upper circuit!" someone typed in excitement.

Screenshots of buy orders started appearing in the group—people rushing in at the last moment.

Aryan, however, didn't wait.

When the price hit ₹2,728, he calmly clicked SELL.

The order executed instantly.

His trading app refreshed.

Account Balance: ₹1,38,625

Total profit from this single trade: ₹11,625

Aryan leaned back and exhaled slowly. For a moment, he simply stared at the screen. Just a few weeks ago, he had been worried about rent and groceries. Now, his capital had crossed a level he once thought impossible.

A notification popped up in the group.It was Sharma Uncle, an elderly investor who had mocked the stock just yesterday.

"Aryan beta, you bought Reliance yesterday, right? Did you sell today?"

Aryan replied politely:

"Yes Uncle, sold just now. Made a small profit."

"How much?" Sharma Uncle asked. "Young people usually get lucky once and then lose everything."

Others joined in.

"Stock market is gambling."

"My nephew lost ₹2 lakh last year."

Aryan didn't argue.

He simply shared a screenshot—buy price ₹2,602, sell price ₹2,728, profit ₹11,625—hiding his total balance.

"Luck matters," Aryan typed,"but I also checked company results, government policy, and volume trends. Fundamentals were strong."

The group went silent.

After a few seconds, Sharma Uncle sent a 👍 emoji.

Soon after, Aryan received private messages asking for stock tips. He declined all of them politely. He knew one rule clearly—never recommend stocks to others.

After closing the chat, Aryan opened KaalDrishti again.

A new message appeared on the screen:

"Congratulations!Your total funds have crossed ₹1,25,000.New Feature Unlocked: Sector Trend Ranking (Next 3 Days)"

Aryan tapped it immediately.

Renewable Energy – 8.1%

Electric Vehicles – 7.4%

Semiconductors – 6.6%

Banking – 5.9%

FMCG – 5.2%

Aryan's heartbeat quickened.This wasn't just luck anymore—it was opportunity.

He noted down two stocks in his notebook: Tata Power and Tata Motors.

The smell of cooking drifted in from the small kitchen. Aryan prepared a simple lunch and sat near the window of his rented room in Ghaziabad, watching children play under the streetlights.

For the first time in months, he felt… steady.

He opened his banking app and remembered his mother's call from the previous day—his father's blood pressure medicines were running low.

Without hesitation, Aryan transferred ₹10,000 to his mother.

Message:"Maa, Dad's medicines and some good food. Don't worry about me."

After that, he returned to his computer and opened the stock charts again.

Aryan knew one thing very clearly now—KaalDrishti could show him the future, but surviving in the market long-term would require skill, discipline, and patience.

And this…was only the beginning.
