Make Money Trading Even When the Market is Down
One of the core questions my coaching clients have asked me over the past few months is: "Can I still make money in stocks with the market down like its been?" The answer is yes, or no, depending on the type of investments you have.
The answer is no if you are holding your investments in a stock fund, mutual funds, or other standard asset allocation accounts. The reason for this is that these large accounts are regulated and do not allow short stock positions. Therefore, if the market declines in the next 3-5 years, as it most likely will, your account will lose money year after year.
Short positions, however, will allow you to make money whether or not the market goes down. These types of investments are only available to companies and individuals who trade individual accounts.
You can take charge of your investments and profit nearly every day by trading through an individual trade account rather than a fund. That way, despite whether a stock value increases or decreases, you can make money, buy buying or selling short, as applicable.
If its that easy, why isnt everyone doing it? For one thing, it requires approximately $25,000 to set up an individual account. Many people dont have that kind of investment or are unwilling to risk it. And, it is true that stock trading for a novice can be very challenging. If you do not know what you are doing, you can lose all your money very quickly.
Luckily, there are strategies to mitigate the anxieties of a new trader.
Your first goal is to find a program that will provide you low risk stock recommendations. Me and my coaching clients use a program that boasts stock pickers with 31 years average experience. With such experienced pickers, a trader can follow their picks with a high probability that they will profit from the trade. And, if you also set your stops at a low risk level, your loss over time will be small.
Its also critical to find a system that will walk you step by step until you achieve your goals. As an example, in the nine day trading course that I lead, the participants actively learn every piece to the process it takes to successfully trade stock whether it goes up or down.
The goal with any system you choose is to find one that will give you stock trading success while those around you complain over poor performance; by making sure that you are working with experienced advisors and a step by step process, you can achieve that goal. - 23222
