I would like to continue my flow here.....when I reread my posts I always get clarity of what is happening inside my mind ... and it helps me a lot and it may help someone else facing the same situations too!... because all are humans here ... So i will keep jottin my mind right here...
1. First the MUST: - I hope Mr. TFL gets well ASAP can come here Roaring like a LION!
2. I have realised a lot @ my self in this journey of 1 month of day trading ...
2a. Lack of systematicness: - I love systematicness so much but my habits are COMPLETELY against that ... and the rationalisation behind this --- i mean behind keeping my laaazyyyy easy going habits is,,, they claim to keep intact my FREEDOM
...Really this is the TRUTH ... Day by day I am realising that my personality and my thinking patterns ARE getting reflected in my trades ... and since there is NO SCIENTIFIC BACKBONE for this behaviours/trading decisions I MAKE,,, I am quite annoyed and got angry with that... say for example ...
2a1. So say ... I see a good buy signal on the charts...I wanna buy a share ... So now whats next??? ... I have cooked already an excel table, which tells me that As per money management theory how much shares I am ALLOWED to buy for one trade with that share with given price ... it comes out to be say 30 ... And I just get angry with that figure and I buy a 100 to fancy my chances more ... but right now i am having 2021Rs. as my trading capital and if tomorrow i am given 1 lakh as trading capital I would still buy 100 Qty of the same shares while my money management principle might have been shouting at 300 Qty ... So I really dislike this behaviour of mine doing HABITUAL things and playing with FAMILIAR and BRAIN FRIENDLY figures ... There is no justification to why I always buy 100Qty. ... reason might be 100 is such a holy figure ...so much lovely figure occured on times and times all over my life ... my % marks ... sachins 100 ... 100 rupee note and the taste of possessing that note
... So such HISTORICAL INPUT which is DRIVING some important part of trading ...which has got NO SCIENTIFIC JUSTIFICATION ... NO REAL AND CLEAR ANSWER ... just the reason is my MENTAL CONDITIONING IN THE PAST... So I have ralised that IT IS NOT ME OR MY PLAN TAKING a TRADING DECISION...it is instead my MENTAL CONDITIONING.... and i am feeling day by day that this is really BAD that (if I allow this to happen as) it is THIS IS GOING TO DECIDE MY DESTINY in my trading life ...
... So why i don't want that to happen????
...because, had i been a PURE HOLY SOUL I would have got all INTUTIONS as a GODLY GIFT and I would have made all decisions absolutely perfect
... BUT I AM NOT A PURE SOUL ... I AM NOT A GOD ... i am good human being but NOT A GOD... i am such a WEAK soul ... As a Gods child i do get intuitions...BUT I also get emotions too AND
I have NO POWER to differenciate between intuition and emotions ...
... So if I get 100 emotions then there are hardly 1 or 2 intuitions in them ,,, So if I depend on the emotions (generated through my mental conditioning till date from my birth) which try to (or actually) DRIVE me to take a trading decisions, then I am making a big mistake ... becuase intuition is the GODS WAY and not the EMOTIONS and this way of trading with emtional hunches has got no scientific basis ...
and i do believe "science" is also Gods Rules which we have found out fortunately ...
Ssssso What is to be concluded from above discussion is that ... i have basically FOUR broad ways of stock trading ...
1. I am a GOD and I play with intuitions with 100% success rate!!
2. I am a WEAK human who uses GOD's rules for this world called SCIENCE ... This way I will be always score less than method 1 because i don't know all the set of rules that run this world and this stock market!!.. But by opting for this, I will be very very SURE to survive and grow here ... This will be very much like a robotic stuff with NO PLACE for any EMOTIONS...
3. I let the feeling arise to trade and then only i buy or sell the shares with the quantity I felt good for buying and also I won't use stoploss becuase this is also scientific thing ... so what I will do is I will wait my whole life till the stock FINALLY hits my target, and this will prove that what i felt that time was not wrong!!!
4.MIXTURE OF ALL 1,2, and 3 in RIGHT proportion! ... 95% I will go with method 2 and 4 % i WILL go with 3 becuase I am a weak person... and 1% may there GOD enter in my trading life to give me a surprise .....this seems to be THE WAY for me ... cause it will be always with ups and downs and will not be a boring journey!
Aha ... i am feeling better now ...
Good going priyu...!
