Every term is defined twice: once the way a filing would put it, and once the way somebody would explain it to you across a table. The second one is usually the one that sticks.

A trendline with a parallel line drawn at the opposite extreme, containing price between two rails.
A framework, not a forecast. Failing to reach the upper rail warns you the trend is weakening before any line has broken.
Speaking to retailers, distributors and dealers to observe how a company's products are actually moving.
Distributors know when orders slow long before a quarterly result says so. Three shops near your home are one geography and one distributor, not three sources.
Commodity Channel Index — how far price has deviated from its own average, expressed in units of mean deviation.
Unbounded, so ±100 are conventions rather than limits. Its better use is spotting the start of a strong move as it crosses +100 from below.
Goods dispatched by a company to its dealers or distributors, as distinct from secondary sales — what those dealers sold on to end customers.
Monthly sales numbers are usually dispatches. Stock can be pushed into the channel to make a quarter, and it comes back as a weak quarter later.
A band drawn from the highest high and lowest low of the last N bars.
The most mechanical level on any chart — nothing to interpret and no way to see a breakout because you wanted one.
The composition of what was sold — across products, variants, geographies or channels — which changes revenue and margin without any change in total units.
Watch the share of revenue against the share of units. When those two move apart, mix is doing the work rather than volume or price.
Price breaking a channel rail and then returning to it from the other side, so that old support acts as resistance.
Often the cleanest short entry a channel offers, because the invalidation sits just beyond the rail rather than far away.
Consumer price inflation, published monthly; the RBI targets 4% with a 2–6% band.
Above the band the RBI raises rates, and that is the channel that reaches your portfolio. Consumer companies take a second hit through input costs they cannot always pass on.
SMS and email notifications sent by NSDL or CDSL on every demat debit.
An independent channel that works even if the broker app is compromised. Turn them on.
Research produced by broking firms, paid for through institutional commissions and banking relationships rather than by readers.
Excellent industry work wrapped around a target price. Take the model and the channel checks; leave the recommendation.
