money and not to gain experience

• Reduce your loss
• Do not trade without SL
• Think ..ink and execute..
• avoid impulse or tips
• 5 days rule

12. Stop loss
• Skill is not to loose money
• so gain is automatic if no loss
• Gavasker said ..do not get out..runs will be
automatic ..test cricket ..long term inv
• Minimize loss
• protect profit..trailing stop loss
• Do not trade without stop loss
• Stop loss order should be put first
• Decide target and trailing stop lossR P Saxena 12
13. What should be stop loss
• Depends on risk taking capacity
• As a thumb rule ,it should be half of
your targeted profit
• I suggest 4% for long term and 2% for
short term ..you may have your own
• For day trading I suggest 1% stop loss
and 2% profit
• Lot of complicated theories to fix stop loss so that
daily variation taken care off but that is in
advanced stage R P Saxena 13
14. Why stop loss
• Nobody can predict the stock market and
even proven strategies can go wrong
• use stop loss to restrict your losses.
• It is generally seen in the market that
traders hung on to losing investments for
longer period causing more loss..
• Accept realty..you may be wrong
• Money is everything in stock market
• Gaining experience with loss of money is
of no use
R P Saxena 14
15. -Example-gain in day trading
• Starting capital 1 lakh
• Do 20 trade –each of 50000 in a month
• Keep tgt at 2 to 3% and stop loss 1 to 2
percent— tgt should be at least 1% higher
than stoploss
• Loss/gain 1000/1500 in 10 trades
• If 10 trade right and 10 wrong gain
will be.10(1500-1000)=Rs 5000 in a
month on capital of one lakh ie 60%
annual return
R P Saxena 15
16. Follow guide line.5 days rule
• Mkt follows either trends or news
• Think yourself why mkt is up or down
• Follow trends..trends are friends
• Follow 5 days rule..Newton law
• Do not go by tips.keep eyes open

17. Trends are friends
• Never trade against the trends
• Swimming against water..tough

• Tracking the broad market trend is
one of the most important tasks of an
alert investor.

• See charts..follow Newton law
• See general trends
• Think..ink..execute..put SL
• Decide entry and exit price ,Place order .

loss

reason of loss

• Mitigate greed with trailing stop
loss

R P Saxena 19
20. Advice to day traders

wrong even if stock is good

22. Newton Law of motion-
Law in investment
• All assets which attract money,
continue to attract money till
they become very expensive.
• Conversely, all assets which
lose investor interest continue
to slide till they bottom out
R P Saxena 22
23. Investor vs speculator
• The individual investor should act
consistently as an investor and not as a
speculator.
• This means.....that he should be able to
justify every purchase he makes
• and each price he pays by impersonal,
objective reasoning
• that satisfies him that he is getting more
than his money's worth for his purchase.”
Ben Graham

24. Final advice
• It is best to start small trade and
take risks with money you are
prepared to lose.
• As you gain confidence and become
more adept in reading the market
sentiment, you can start making
bigger trades and investments.
