Common Investor and Trader Blunders

Letting Losses Grow

One of the defining characteristics of successful investors and traders is their ability to take a small loss quickly if a trade is not working out and move on to the next trade idea. Unsuccessful traders, on the other hand, can become paralyzed if a trade goes against them. Rather than taking quick action to cap a loss, they may hold on to a losing position in the hope that the trade will eventually work out. A losing trade can tie up trading capital for a long time and may result in mounting losses and severe depletion of capital.

    You have a misunderstanding about the definition of success. If you buy Apple stock at a high level, you will definitely get rid of it in two years; If you buy MEME shares at a high level, don't expect to make a profit in this life.

    Retail investors are lambs waiting to be slaughtered. If you want to be a successful investor, you must first buy the stock of a successful company, and then you can ignore the rise and fall of the stock price
