Rules for making your investment profitable in BSE | NSE

Indian stocks markets (BSE and NSE) are known through out the world for their enormous volatility and still no one can predict where the market will go in a week's time , However these rules(50 in number) are compiled by me after following the market for last 4 years, if followed correctly the investment can become very profitable both for NSE and BSE.

50 rules which a market beginners must follow in order to make their investment profitable are as follows : 

1. An attempt at making a quick buck usually leads to losing much of that buck.

2. If stocks in general don’t seem cheap, stand aside.

3. Buy and hold doesn’t always work.

4. Never throw good money after bad investments (don’t buy more of a loser).

5. Cut your losers, and let your winners ride.

6. If the investment sounds too good to be true, it is.

7. Don’t fight “the tape” (the trend).

8. Don’t fight the Fed (interest rates).

9. Most stocks that fall under $5 rarely see $10 again.

10. The best hot tip: there is no such thing as a hot tip.

11. Don’t fall in love with your stock; it won’t fall in love with you.

12. Don’t have more than 3% at risk in any one position.

13. The trend is your friend until the end.

14. Trading options often leads to a quick trip to the poorhouse.

15. Bear-market rallies are often violent; giving the illusion the bull is back.

16. Low-priced stocks don’t double any faster than high-priced ones.

17. Valuations don’t matter in the short run.

18. When a stock hits a new high, it’s not time to sell. Something is going right.

19. Have a rose garden portfolio (don’t trim your roses while your weeds fester).

20. It takes courage to be a pig (don’t settle for taking 10% profits).

21. Not selling a stock for a gain, simply because you’re afraid of the taxes, is a bad idea.

22. Avoid limited upside, unlimited downside investments.
