Reason People lose Their Money on Stock Market

Many people invest their money on stock market but why there is some bright mind stay ahead of others and they make more money than losing there are basic concept of timing and experience that lead to successful trade and here is how all wind and loss happens:

Every price of stocks of a company moves like a ripple in water it goes up and obviously goes down lets name it level 1,2,3 and level 4 respectively.

Level 1

Let assume a stock price of a company ABC is showing heavy downturn for e.g. like it was trading on 150 but have slipped to just 130 which is 20 points down at this stage newbies who have invested their money can’t resist their losses and start selling off their share as they were holding in hope that stock will rise and due to their aggressive selling stocks goes down again to 110 further 20 points down.

At this level where everyone is at panic this is where smart investors steps in with their dollars while other showing no interest on this stocks this is where our level 1 has begun and it’s ready to see some big upstream.

Level 2

After going download hill stocks starts to get strong and show improvement and gradually rise up to reach our point called level 2 this is also a money making stage and most money are made on this level only but others still don’t trust on this uptrend and most of the people are those who have previously experienced losses on this stocks till now no newbies have entered the rally now and the people who are trading are experienced investors.

Level3

Now the stock of that company is at its peak and trading in good numbers at this point most of the smart investors are busy in selling their stocks and cashing of their money at this level where all smart investors are selling and getting out newbies are now showing interest in it and starts to pour their money on it and now you can call this point at level 3 as the equilibrium has reached.

Level 4

After the level 3, Investors who have invested at the peak point will going see a dramatic downfall at this level one should just leave out this dangerous stock new investors holds there stocks assuming that the market will rise but the market has no signs of upstream now as the upstream rally has ended and they have missed the golden chance and the only thing at this stage the stocks can go is just downside at some point new investor will lose hope and will sell off their stocks with heavy losses and this is where our level 4 ends but it’s also the beginning of level 1 and all thing just repeat all over again.

Maintenance: Maintenance turkeys is little difficult as you have to struggle to keep them healthy as turkeys are known to find more reason to die then live.

Using Small Income Sources To Fund Important Things

We often see small amount of money unimportant and we often use that money either buying dinner in weekends or shopping some new wardrobe.

And why not? It’s a little chunk of money what else you can use it? But I look every dollar I earn as precious as some thousand dollars people forget the fact that a large sum of money is nothing but a combination of these small dollars as a whole.

But even if you give respect to your money and you are kind of a guy that love saving money, many times some dollars slips out from right under your nose either in day to day expenses or other sort of household budget and you doesn’t much care about it as it’s a small sum of money, but I have seen several situations where small income helped to sort out big problems like emergency funds if someone got under accident, education fund for your son.

Thinking about saving will not going to save your money the right way to use this small source of income is to create a reason behind every save.

Giving your small income a reason

Many people are not ready for upcoming financial needs like at the end of the money you get your credit card statement with over budget bill or you got a renewal of you gas subscription.

But now you don’t have to panic if you do what I did when my son was at school i got a part time teaching job at that time I made up my mind that the money I earn even if any amount I will transfer it to my online saving account which I have opened specifically for my son’s education soon day after day passed by and soon the small figures started to grow and at the time when my son was older and ready to start his college the figures reach to almost 6000$ and I used that fund to pay the college fee and other expenses which I have to pay from the household budget or I have to take some education loan.

This way you can have other source of small income for other purpose too for those people who don’t have other part time job doesn’t mean that they can’t save money there are many hidden income source which many people fail to realize like commission for some work, tips, cash back from credit card, some contest prize, cash gift from your family and friends, money you got from used item sale last summer. If you enroll a habit of saving these dollars you can build large sum of money at the end of the year in my case here is what I have able to save apart from my part time job.

Tips and commission – 60$/month                      - 750$ year

Gifts from family and friends – 25$/month        - 300$ year

Cash back and petrol saving – 122$/ month       -   1464$ year

Yard and other used item sale - 150$ month     - 1800$ year

Then yearly I have able to save 4314 so at the end of the year I have 4314 $ and if I kept doing this for next 3 years the sum will be 12942 now that huge.
