Line 1:

-

Do not let your emotions get
the
best of you
. If you
feel that trading
is
causing you too much stress
,
perhaps it is not for
you.
Take a break if
you
become too tense. You should also avoid trading if it becomes an obsession or if you get too greedy
to
make rational decisions
.

+

Much has been written about investing in
the
stock market
. If you
attempt to read and understand all there
is
to know about investing
, you
are likely going to spend lots of time doing this and just be even more confused
.
Therefore, what do
you
really need to know about investing? Continue reading to find out where
to
begin
.

-

Always follow
your
gut instincts
.
The valuation models that
you
create are only good for the future assumptions
that
you put into
it.
If a model's output makes no sense,
you
should not look over
your
calculations and projections again. DCF valuation models should be used as guides, not as oracles
.

+

Maintain realistic expectations for
your
stock investments portfolio
.
Every professional investor will tell
you that
success almost never happens overnight, and when
it
does there are some very high risks involved
.
Keep this in mind as
you
build
your
portfolio to ensure you don't get taken advantage of
.

-

Having a wide education in personal and corporate finance, economics, and taxation can help
you
in your investments
.
However, if
you
do not
have
this large education
,
just discovering methods
of
the way business works can assist you
in
discovering
the
best investments
.
With the internet
,
there is very little information
that
the public
can
not obtain
.

+

Remain realistic when
you
decide to invest
.
Contrary to those myths that
you
may
have
heard of
,
the vast majority
of
people are not becoming rich overnight
in the
stock market
.
You need to be involved in low-risk
,
manageable stocks
that
you can easily control. Remain aware of this fact so that you
can
make the right decisions and avoid costly mistakes
.

-

You must understand that
the stock market
should not be treated as a hobby. To large banks,
it
is extremely competitive
.
Therefore
,
you need
to
treat
the
[http://www.5linx.net/technologist
stock market
] like a business
.
This requires knowing how much money you are making and losing and
the
companies that
you
invest
in.

+

Learn about
the stock market
by watching what
it
does
.
Prior to laying any money down
,
it's always smart
to
research
the
company behind any
stock
and to be aware of current
market
conditions
.
The best way is to monitor it for about three years or so. By regularly observing
the
market,
you
will have an idea of what you're getting yourself into and what is normal
in
terms of market fluctuations
.

-

Remember that investing is something that is for the long-term. Try not to be unnerved by the daily price fluctuations in
your
stocks and mutual funds
.
Select investments that
you
feel will do well over the long term, with
the
understanding that these prices may rise and fall during certain times
.

+

Only allocate a tenth or less of
your
investment capital into a single stock
.
By doing this
you
won't lose huge amounts of money if
the
stock suddenly going into rapid decline
.

-

If you need help with your trading, consider joining an investment service. You will receive useful tips on
the
finest investments available and have access
to
educational material
to
help you progress
.
Make sure you read reviews
of
different services and select the best one on
the market
for your budget
.

+

Resist
the
temptation
to
trade according
to
a time-table
.
It is a proven fact that invest an equal amount
of
funds into
the market
steadily over time have the ideal results. Just figure out how much money you have to invest. Then, consistently invest and do not forget to keep up with it
.

-

Keep an eye on
the
price of a
stock you
want
to
buy,
and
buy when the price is at it
'
s low point
.
The stock market fluctuates constantly, so you might
have to
wait a bit for the perfect price, but it will pay off in the end with a high return on investment
.

+

If you're a novice at
the stock
market,
you
need
to
realize that success takes time
and
you aren
'
t going to become rich overnight
.
Many investors stop investing without realizing that it takes time for some companies to produce favorable results. You
have to
be patient and take your time
.

-

Keep
in
mind that bear markets represent buying opportunities, both generally and specific
.
The entire stock market
is
usually depressed during this time, meaning blue chip
stocks
are more accessible than usual so you can snag them for long term holding. Also keep an eye out for short term holds
that
traditionally
do
well in down economies
,
like movie theaters, dollar stores and so called sin stocks like alcohol and tobacco
.

+

Don't stray too far from the areas you're knowledgeable
in.
It
is
unwise to venture into purchasing
stocks
in industries
that
you
do
not know much about
,
or into companies you are not familiar with. A company that invests into oil rigs is a lot harder to understand than a landlord company. Leave those investment decisions to a professional advisor
.

-

Sometimes
,
listening to financial news or reading it in the newspaper is not always wise
.
Just like with other news stories, the media tends
to
be over-exaggerate; what is happening
,
both positive
and
negative
.
Instead
of
listening to what the media reports, find out what is really going on via the stock market
.

+

Develop a plan
,
full of details, spelling out your specific trading strategies
.
Include what you want
to
buy
,
when you'll sell
and
what you'll do as the next step
.
Your plan also needs to have an investment budget that you will stick to. This lets you keep working with your head instead
of
your heart
.

-

Stay away from investments that a large crowd of people
have
claimed to be a great opportunity
.
Although
the
majority usually rules in most instances
,
this isn't the case. When people agree that an opportunity is great, then things are likely
to
change really soon
. When
people make investments
,
they shouldn't
be
making
, you
should stay away
.

+

Hopefully you now
have
it
.
This article has provided you with many of
the
basics
,
and explained how
to
apply them
. When
you are young
,
you may
be
able to get away with not doing much advance planning
,
but as
you
get older you realize that sometimes you must look farther ahead. Use the investment knowledge you gained here to make yourself more profitable
.

-

Keep in mind that investing is a business, not a hobby. You're doing this to make money, not for fun. Any time you're doing something regarding your investments, whether it's getting a magazine subscription or investing in a new stock, you need to sit down and ask yourself whether it's going to help you make money, or if you'll lose money from it.

 

-

Practice investing by taking time to do paper trading
.
By paper trading it is meant that you choose a handful of stocks you are interested in, make note of their current price and monitor them closely
.
Watch to see if your hunches on the stocks hold true or whether the stocks fall through
.
You will learn a lot about the market and gain insight into the areas in which you need to train yourself.
