how many percentage of people lose money in stock market?

Stock market is a place where money is transferred from the uninformed to the informed.

at least till now i m loosing money, trading from last 1 and half year and still loosing thanks to fno, so dont ever think about to trade in fno.

Hi,

What an thoughtful question, many ppls never think about such type of Q's?

Stock market is such a place where Somebody gains and somebody looses, to make someone gain someone has to loose, this is what I feel One can sell the stock(s) and then only one can buy.


As per my knowledge i think about average 45 to 55% of people loose money due to various factors such as -

-- Intraday
-- Llack of patience
-- Lack of controls over their emo's
-- Lack of picking abilities and so on.

But overall if you stay positive in the market with your positions and / or holdings I think it is a good place to earn over the period of time When I say over the period of time this does not mean any ST's gains but with a long term visionary approach.

Thanks & hope this helps...
