Most people that achieve wealth in the stock market don’t do it through making a “killing”. In fact, those that try to make a “killing” usually lose significant pieces of their portfolio. The attempt to make a big win…. usually is a gamble, which has results that are pretty easy to predict.
I’ve made many little killings in the market. Stocks which have increased by 30%, 50%, 100% or more in very short frames. But those stocks that have the potential to do so are always a small part of my portfolio. The reason is simple…. there are other stocks which lose a lot in this category. What keeps my entire portfolio in check (and on the rise) is my quick moves to get out of losing stocks. I don’t hold on to them… I don’t “wish”, “hope” or “expect” them to return to their original values. I cut my loses quickly.
In short;
It’s one thing to be wrong in the market….. what’s worse is staying wrong.
I have seen most of the investors are getting good profits and less no. of investors are losing. They are lacking with update in share market and other issues be solved by a stock adviser. They will help them which time they should invest and what are current activities going in market.
What is your definition of a killing? I have made gains of 300, 400, and 500% on single stocks before. Virtually all were small cap stocks or stocks that were in a bubble boom. CSCO comes to mind in that respect just prior to 2000.
Not sure what you mean by “killing” I’ve been active in the market for a very long period of time, I started when I was 11, and started trading in high school. I’ve paid for schooling, not only high school but also college. I had new cars, custom made clothes, and lived very well.
It’s not how much you make, it’s how much you don;t loose or how much you protect what you have..Not every trade has been profitable, but any losses I had have been minimal
I have managed trading departments, not all trades have been good, but we all know when to walk away and we also know when to take profits with out being greedy.
To be successful at trading/investing, you must know what you;re doing, why you’re doing it, how to do it and know the rules and regulations that govern what you’re doing.
