Career
Interest in the stock market
After completing her studies, she began her job and aimed to save money from her earnings. Her parents advised her to put her money in fixed deposits (FDs), but she soon figured out they were not the best choice for her. So, she began investing in mutual funds and also in the stock market. Later, she moved on to swing trading, buying and selling stocks regularly. Eventually, she ventured into trading more actively.
