Hiren’s core philosophy is to ride only when momentum is present and exit immediately when it fades, thereby minimizing dead capital. He aligns his trading schedule with his lifestyle, preferring low‑screen‑time setups that capture 25‑40 % moves without long‑term positional exposure.
Stage 2, as defined by Minervini, is identified by the 200‑day EMA turning upward and a strong leg with volume contraction. Hiren uses this as a confirmation that a stock has moved from accumulation to a momentum phase, making it suitable for his swing setups.
