Seven Major Mistakes done by Traders



Seven Major Mistakes done by Traders

1. Lack of Knowledge and No Plan
It is surprising that some people expect to trade the stock market effectively without any effort. However, if they want to take up golf, for instance, they will happily take several lessons or at least read a book before heading out onto the course.

The stock market is not the place for the poorly informed. Although learning what you need is easy, you just need someone to show you the way. The contradictory extreme of this is those traders who spend their life looking for the Holy Grail of trading. The fact is that there is no Holy Grail. But the excellent news is that you don't require it. Indian trading system is highly successful, easy to learn and low risk.

2. Unrealistic Expectations
Many beginner traders expect to make huge money over a trading week. The stock market can be an enormous way to restore your current income and for creating wealth but it does need time. Not a lot, but of course some time is required.

Other beginners think that trading can be 100% accurate all the time. Certainly this is unrealistic. But the best thing is that with different methods you only need to get 50-60% of your trades "right" to be successful and highly profitable.

3. Listening to Others
When traders first start out they repeatedly feel like they know nothing and that everyone else have the answers. So they pay attention to all the news reports and so called "experts" and get totally confused and they take "tips" from their friends, who got it from some cab driver.

We will show you how you can get to be acquainted with everything you need to know and so never have to listen to anyone else.

4. Getting in the Way
When you first start to trade it is very hard to control your emotions. Fear and greed can be overpowering. Lack of discipline; lack of patience and over confidence are only some of the other problems that we all face. It is important you understand how to control this side of trading.

5. Poor Money Management
It never stops to astonish us that how many traders don't understand the significant nature of money management and the related area of risk management. This is an important aspect of trading. If you don't understand this right you not only won't be successful, you won't survive. Luckily, it is not complex to address and the simple steps we can show you will ensure that you don't "blow up" and that you get to keep your profits.

6. Only Trading Market in One Direction
Most new traders only learn how to trade a growing market. And very few traders know really good strategies for trading in a diminishing market. If you don't learn to trade "both" kind of ends of the market, you are significantly limiting the number of trades you can take. And this restricts the amount of money you can make.

7. Overtrading
Most traders, those who are new to trading feel that they have to be in the market all the time to make any real money. And they see trading opportunities when they are not even there. You should think before investing that how much money you can afford to invest.

Angel Tax on start-ups may be amended soon

Various start-up founders have received demand notices from the tax authorities which plans to tax the capital receipts in the form of Income when the tax authorities believe that the amount is in excess of the value of the company. What is Angel Tax? In 2012, the then Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee introduced a tax on unlisted companies which aimed at raising funds from investors (the 'angel investors") who invested in these companies with the objective of gaining significant returns. Since many companies used this route to launder money and raise funds at excessive valuations, the tax was imposed to arrest such money laundering. Angel Tax is a tax payable by the unlisted companies who raise funds via issue of shares where the share price is believed to be in excess of the fair market value of the shares sold.
