Education for the trader
Dreams of fancy cars, luxurious holidays, loaded bank accounts, worry free life and the list is endless, perhaps you’ve rolled some or all of these dreams in your head at some point in your life. Peruse through the newspapers and you’ll encounter stories of many folks making millions everywhere, and maybe that’s true if you believe all that you read in the newspapers, on the internet and on TV.
Welcome to reality! Because things are seldom that easy. Its true there’s money to be made particularly in the bull market, (climbing share prices). Money can be easily made and in plenty. The downside is that most newbie’s are unprepared to for the unavoidable slump in the stock market. A couple of bad trades and these share market newbie’s end up burning their account equity severely, as a result become disillusioned and run from the market never to return.
The stock market is littered with tales of broken dreams and forlorn hopes. If such people ever decide to dare the market, then the cycle of bad luck begins again and soon they’re doomed to failure. Their problem is not bad luck but rather their attitude towards the market.
The market always rewards a trader amounts proportionate to efforts exerted towards learning the ropes of the share market, and realizing that you’re the biggest problem to your stock market success. Education for the trader is highly emphasized for the newbie.
Before you start trading, ask yourself the following questions and be honest with yourself when answering them.
a) How much money do I want to invest?
b) Why do I want to trade shares?
c) What is my risk appetite?
d) What are my profit expectations?
e) How much time I’m I ready to spare for share trading?
f) What do I want to trade in the stock market?
Education for the trader is essential in equipping the trader with the right set of skills necessary to successful share trading. As a share trader, capital preservation is just as important as profit making. Done prudently, share trading can be very profitable and self sustaining.
