The 12 Rules of How to Avoid Losing and Start Making Money from the Stock Market

Recommended Posts

RULE 1: WHY DO YOU INVEST?

 

Make more money, this is the answer to most people.

If your reason is to make more money, then ask yourself these three questions:

 

1.Is your strategy making money?

2.Is your strategy safe?

3.How to increase the profit and minimize the risk?

 

 

RULE 2: HOW TO CREATE WEALTH IN STOCK MARKET WITH JUST $1,000

 

Let say we invest some lower price stocks with just $1,000 in the stock market, invest twice a year for short-to-medium term. If each time the return is double, you will make one million dollar cash within 5 years. If your starting capital is $20,000, after 3 years you will make one million dollar cash.

 

If you are using the same $1,000 capital, invest twice a year, but the return is only 50%, you will make one million dollar cash after 9 years.

 

So we can always start small. However, it is very important that we know how to select high profit and low risk stocks.

 

 

RULE 3: DON'T GET OBSESSED WITH STOCKS

 

Sitting and monitoring the market whole day long will not bring you profit. Instead, it increases pressure and misleads your judgment.

 

 

RULE 4: NEVER GAMBLE

 

95% of the people always buy at the highest price. They don’t really know when to buy, just relying on news, rumors and tips. Only 5% of the people knows how to trade at the lowest price. That’s why 95% are losing money, only the 5% are making money.

Investment Builds Wealth, Gambling Definitely Lose !

 

 

RULE 5: SAY GOODBYE TO NEWS

 

News used to be able to predict the market trend. But not anymore, it is difficult to judge which news could actually influence the market nowadays.

 

 

RULE 6: DO YOUR OWN ANALYSIS, FORGET ABOUT TIPS

 

Before investing, ask yourself these four questions:

 

1.How many people have already heard about the tips before you?

If many have heard about it before you, this news is already obsolete. The price is already high.

 

2.How long have the tips been spreading before it reaches you?

The next day?

 

3.Who told you?

Listed company director? Or friends?

 

4.Assuming that the tip is true, would you possibly know about it?

Normally insider news is not disclosed.

 

 

RULE 7: SELL YOUR STOCKS EVEN LOSING MONEY

 

It is easier to be said than done.

 

Sell at a loss is a difficult decision. Your heart will object, and your feeling will say "It is going to rebound, don't sell." Eventually price dropped further, causing a much tragic lost.

 

 

RULE 8: DON'T JUST FOCUS ON MAKING MONEY

 

How to protect your capital is much more important. Don’t try to make 100% profit. It is already good enough to have a 60% profit margin.

 

 

RULE 9: HISTORY WILL NOT ALWAYS REPEAT

 

Everyone expects to make some money from the stock market before Christmas, New Year, annual budget announcement or election, but the stock market is not always bullish during these events. We can say history is not always repeated.

The best way is “Let the Market Lead usâ€Â.

 

 

RULE 10: QUOTES FROM WARREN BUFFET

 

There are only two rules to make money in stock market:

 

The first rule: Never lose your money.

The second rule: Never forget the first rule.

 

 

RULE 11: TURN BAD STOCKS INTO GOOD STOCKS, DON’T JUST HOLD YOUR STOCKS

 

Don’t hold your stock too long, there is a value when stocks are sold.

 

How long have you been holding your stocks until now?

Since Year 1993? 1997? Or Year 2000?

 

Why didn't you exercise your stocks? Long term investment strategy is not practical anymore. Even the blue chips also crash when the market collapses.

 

The best strategy is to sell the stocks that are not earning money, and reselect some good counters. Buy low, sell high for several times will earn you more than enough to compensate the lost.

 

 

RULE 12: WAKE UP FROM MISTAKES

 

Stop investing if you are not sure of when to buy or sell.

 

Without the knowledge of investment, you are bound to lose again. This is an age of information. Investors are using knowledge, techniques and strategies to make money. Without investment knowledge, how do you protect your money?

 

Building wealth through investing starts with securing your capital.

Nice one. But how then can someone monitor or properly analyze a stock if one don't spent time watching it? That is basically what I do and i won't call that been obsessed. perhaps I don't understand what you mean by been obsessed.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
