The
Basics
Once
you’ve started your education, one of the first questions you want to answer
is how you are going to trade. Making this decision is going to tell you what
you’re next level of education will be about. Are you going to scalp, day
trade, swing trade, or buy and hold for the long run?
Scalping
Scalping involves buying large quantities of shares in a stock, and you are just
looking for a small move in the stock price.
Day
trading
Day trading is similar to scalping but you are looking for bigger moves in the
price, and you do not hold the stock overnight.
Swing
trading
Swing trading is when you buy a stock and hold it for a short period of time
looking for a substantial move in the price.
Buy
and hold
Buy and hold is when you plan on holding on to the stock for a long time. You
believe the company is going to grow in value and the price is going to go much
higher.
A
Stock Market Investment Strategy
I feel that an investment strategy in the stock market can instill in the
individual investor not only an assured confidence in all future stock market
investments, but also an almost Zen-like sense of peace and well being. A stock
market investment strategy spelled out, proven, and instilling within the
investor the power to succeed in the stock market with an assured confidence.
The investment strategy I’m talking about would take away the anxiety of
indecision, since you would have for yourself – spelled out in advance –
knowledge of when and where to take advantage of each stock market investment
opportunity.
Since there is no room in a stock market investment strategy for indecision
the investment strategy would spell out exactly what you’re after, in advance.
Would tell you how and when and where to take advantage of each stock market
investment opportunity, in advance. Would instill in the investor the
self-confidence and purpose of mind to succeed, in advance. An investment
strategy that knows you seldom get what you’re after unless you know in
advance what you want.
One aspect of the investment strategy would set clear and specific long-term
goals. For without clear and specific goals a powerful force essential for
success in the stock market would be missing. An investment goal, for example,
that is predetermined to increase cash income from each and every stock market
investment for the rest of your life would instill within you the power to
fulfill the goal.
A second aspect of the investment strategy would be that it would only
benefit the investor (no broker commission fees, management fees, advertising
fees, operational fees), and no one else! It is for that reason this investment
strategy has had very little promotion. No one has a vested interest in
promoting it. It would benefit the investor and the investor alone. An
investment strategy offering an enviable opportunity to learn how and when and
why and where to invest in the stock market commission-free. An investment
strategy used to invest regularly to increase income continuously, for the rest
of your life.
The full potential of this stock market investment strategy can be recognized
in the book The Stockopoly Plan – Investing for Retirement. Website: http://www.thestockopolyplan.com
