Hi Frnd,
I think trading is all about discipline and overcoming your emotions..we all knw this... I think one shud not set big profit targets initially..Start with bare minimum capital....try trading in 1 or 2 things at a time....I wud suggest Silver and Banknifty since they give nice move during the day..trade in1 lot each in starting..For that u wud need 45 k as margin..choose a broker which offers less brokerage and allow u to transfer funds instantly.. Book small profits and exit... transfer your profits weekly to ur saving account and forget tht and start trading afresh next week..
To achieve this, all you need to do is overcome ur greed...accept losses and don't try to take revenge from market.... remember even if u catch an average move of 50 points in banknifty and 150 points in silver per lot u ll make Rs.2000 per lot per day..tht means 60k per month and 7.2 lacs per annum...Just an example but thts the power of compounding....
Hi deepakkukrety,
Thanks for your suggestion. Yes, "trading is all about discipline and overcoming your emotions" but I believe it works best when combined with a working strategy and proper money management. However hard you may try,it is really challenging to control greed,fear and your inner emotions. I don't believe that paper trading really helps dealing with real money coz whatever the period you trade on paper,everything looks well and good but once you start trading with real money,things start to turn tables. I think it is the most imp thing to manage.
As of now,as I said,my main objective it to hold my money and try to make some money. As someone said,"If you don't give money to markets,markets will have no choice rather than to give you money".
I don't trade in commodities or crude,as I said, I trade only in stocks or options. Yes, if we plan well and compound our profits,then it will be a huge sum :clap::thumb:
Happy Trading!:thumb:
