If given a chance to re-live your Life (in the context of one's involvement in the Stock-market) again from the day one, what would be the thing that you do not want to repeat most in the next re-run ?

Interesting,
I want to avoid over trading study

Now I do about 20 trades per year, but at the beginning I was doing about 10 trades per weak.
I was jumping from one tree to another and eventually making my broker rich.
Now I do my homework first, pick my watch list, patiently wait for a buy/sell signal.
That was hard at first, but now I have mastered that.
I believe over trading is the biggest mistake most investors do. Question

i BUY SHARES WHICH PAY HIGHER DIVIDEND THAN BROKER FEE AND WAIT
SHARE PRICE COME HIGHER THAN BUYING PRICE

i WILL CONTINUE THIS POLICY UNTIL THIS GOVT IS CHANGED

BUT I DO NOT EXPECT THIS GOVT WILL CHANGED IN THE NEAR FUTURE

WE CAN'T EXPECT MORE THAN THIS UNDER PRACTICAL MAHINDA CHITHANAYA AT PRESENT

THERE IS BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PIRATICAL MAHINDA CHITHENAYA AND STATED MAHINDA CHINTHANAYA

Thats called EXPERIENCE.......!!!
if it worth then we can called it as GETTING MATURED..!!!

I too almost in the same path...... now can wait much better than earlier....rather than jumping.....

as far BULL, UP TREND, RISE....what ever happened.....

that much or closer level of correction, down trend, drop happen...
at least in once in every 3 to 4 months.....

You can miss a train.... yes its bit sad n lost....
but its is much better than getting into a wrong train...... in wrong time.... from wrong place........

after few misses..... we will reduce misses.... with accuracy!
GL!

Yes I don't want to sell good shares at lower price levels. I want to keep at least 5 years or more to get the max benefit of a share.

I don't want to make my broker company rich in doing buying and selling blindly.

I will not sell 5000 NEST I bought at Rs 90 couple of years back. I'm not going to sell BFL 50000 I bought at Rs 21.25 ( which eventually sold at Rs 100 before reaching Rs 500 levels). I will definitely not sell LLUB 5000 I bought at Rs 87.50 levels if I'm given a chance once again.

I will not touch GREG family shares, HVA, TWOD forever this time.

Always look at future potential rather than the herd behaviour..............

I don't want anything called re life. just reverse the mkt to ASI 4500 levels. Then I know what to do.

I will try to control my emotions .....buy at low and sell at high

No point of talking about the Gov and about some document.. It is true that good governance brings more opportunities to people but what we need to practice how to success even with this type of situation

Never to buy stocks when they are on upward journey (unless I am 100 % sure that it has not still reached the peak). Shocked
