Dear,
My 2 cents..
You are paid in s/w job for doing your work.. You will paid in stock market if you do the stock market work.. and what is this stock market work.. its the work of handling risks..
What is handling risks.. Suppose you are a leader and you are given the task of finishing the job, what u do, you collect all the resources, do proper planning, and try to execute it.... You succeed 8 out of 10 times.. in 2 times projects delayed or gets postponed..
same in stock market.. you try 10 times and 8 times success comes and 2 times goes.. you make up a good profit..
That said is it possible to get 80% success ratio, the troubles on the way..
1. You take your trade ( each one ) as a personal worth trade.. can it be possible, it's one among your thousands of activities all thro ur live..
2. You attach ur ego to trade and don't cut losses..
3. The desires out run and rules mind rather than proper execution..
4. In job you do some JOB ( s/w in your case, book selling in another case ), but in stock market we directly deal with money in other cases it's indirect.. so it affects our psyche very much..
5. In stock market people are there who has more experience and money compared to you, can you compete with them..??
6. Brokerage houses, and exchanges gives leverage and what happens your risk goes up very much can you mentally prepared to handle that risk..
7. Objectively speaking NO.. all these things are not possible.. but there are success stories..
8. No body can teach you, apni laath khudh khaana padega.. Take up many successful threads in traderji, what is important is go thro the thread in deep and try to understand their trading style.. u may like few things note down.. repeating.. keep learning, keep losing(in very small qty say 1 share..).. one day u realize the probabilities are better in your favour at that time start with small capital, u will blow it up many a times.. but if u pass on this stage, then risk more capital from the capital earned from market..
9. Aur boloonga tho apne aap ko ulloo samjoonga.. jyada bol diya.. khud nahi kartha but sahi bolna padtha hai.. kya kare.. mind discipline karna bahut mushkil hai babu..
