Are you Excited or Nervous about the Fall in the Market?

Dear Fellow Investors,

Namaste! Everybody loves profit and the response to our post – Simple Tricks to make a profit was evident. Our last post 4% Partnership or 5 % commission was also written with the purpose. Most people have replied 4% partnership. It means the investors are ready to take the short-term PAIN with PATIENCE for the long-term gains. In continuation of the above 2 posts – we are writing the third post. So, let us go to the post.

Are you Excited or Nervous about the Fall in the Market?

This is the best way to differentiate whether you are a speculator/trader or a Long-Term investor.

The Long-term guy will feel excited as he will be able to buy more of his favourite companies shares at lower prices. He will be in a celebration mood. He will arrange the money by hook or crook and buy the chosen shares. Say your neighbour wants to sell his flat at a discounted price to the fair value of the price in your area or your building – how excited you will be to buy that flat. You do everything to buy that flat.

Excitement is the one word to justify that you are a long-term investor.

If you are NERVOUS – you are a trader or mere speculator. You will be frustrated/worried / blaming the market / blaming the media for making you buy those shares. Your holding period could be for an hour / a day or a week. All you want is the quick money and when it doesn’t come – you go for a toss. Your mood becomes NERVOUS.

This is the simple test that you are a TRADER.

Skill V/s. Luck: -

A long-term investment is a function of skill with patience. You have all the possibilities to explore your skill sets in the long term. You can start with a small experiment and go on building on the experiences. The beauty of the long term is that if your holding period is 20-30 years – you can never make losses. As per the RECORD – those who bought shares in the TEJI of 1929 and held those shares for 20 years – made a profit. In India – those who bought Infosys even at Rs.16000 in 1999, came in profit in 2017-18. They would have multiplied their gains – had they added their shares in the MANDI time or more of INFOSYS in the 15 years or 2008 fall.

If you happen to SELL BIG TIME and the next day is a fall like 20^th December or 24^th January – you are LUCKY. Skills will not work in this case. The same way if you bought nifty at 16410 in December and it reached 18300 in 12 trading days – this also happens due to LUCK.

The problem comes with the TRADERS when they apply tons of theories or charts and blah blah for speculation. They make normal money. The ratio of gain to a loss in weekly trading is 53:47. It means – if you apply the above SKILLS in trading your gain would be 53%. Little more than half. But the big money in trading can come only and only when your LUCK is in your FAVOUR.

What is our approach?

I started my career in 1992, post-HARSHAD MEHTA Fall. During those days – when we used to recommend companies – I used to keep the record of the people to whom we asked to buy any share. I used to tally after 3 months or a year – depending on the time asked to hold. My results were surprising. Many guys will say they did not buy / many will say - they bought small qty or they sold at loss. Out of 10, 1-2 will say he made tons of money. This experience led me to consider luck apart from just an MBA degree and I learned the science of astrology full-fledged.  

I have started studying the horoscope of investors with their market performance – given other things equal. The LUCK factor was evident in all the traders who made big money in a short time.

Since then, I have combined astrology with all the wisdom of BUFFETT for myself and my clients while dealing with trading or investments. We provide FREE ASTRO inputs to all the clients. 

What works in the long term?

The long term is a function of the collective destiny. Whatever happens in the collective destiny will affect you and your investments. Say those who were holding tons of cash – they all suffered big time in 2016 when the Demonetisation was announced. This is collective LUCK, if you may call. Those who had skills – bought tons of gold with old notes and they all are in profits now. This is the SKILL aspect.

Those who didn’t have long-term views – just converted old notes to new notes. Your skills and intelligence will make you ONE UP when the collective opportunities come into the market. Today Cryptos are down due to collective situations. Now, the long-term guy will use the MIND and invest while short-term guys will feel Nervous. 

When you combine collective destiny with individual destiny – you get the periods or points of multi-fold gains. At destiny management, we provide this unique service.   

What NEXT?

Excitement or Nervousness are the two simple words to know yourself and your way of investing.

Wish you all a happy budget week.
