What are the choices for Stock and Stock Futures trading?






EWATSS® Elliott Wave Analysis and Trade Selection Trading System

Choice 1: to do it in the orthodox traditional, tedious and expensive way:
  1. Spend huge time, effort, energy, money and study extremely hard and read many expensive books and watch online videos to learn Technical Analysis;
  2. Subscribe to expensive charting services for price data feeds from stock exchanges into your PC, pay stock exchanges’ fees, and also pay for expensive technical analysis tools and indicators on periodic recurring basis; and then study their manuals, websites, attend their very expensive seminars etc. even more to understand and effectively use these tools and indicators; and also remain stuck to your PC since almost all such tools and indicators work on PC and not on mobile or tablet;
  3. Create a Trading System with a clear buy/sell strategy, risk management and exit strategy. Trading plan must suit you and match your psychology at the soul level, as then only you will be able to follow it for a long time with conviction.
  4. Execute a large number of winning and losing trades (don’t worry as these losing trades will always come even when you have done all the best analysis in the world to avoid these and even after you have become a super master trader) and then analyse all your past trading data to calculate : Does your Trading System have Positive Expectancy?
  5. If after so much time, effort, energy, money, studies and analysis, in case you ultimately do land up with a Trading System with Positive Expectancy, continue with following further steps almost day in day out all your trading life so as to implement your Trading System with good precision.
  6. Remain stuck to your PC and then see hundreds of stock charts everyday to see which few stocks are having buy set ups taking into account fractal nature of markets / sentiment / momentum / volume / volatility / multiple time frame directional congruence etc. - through manual or semi-computer assisted ways;
  7. Remain stuck to your PC and wait for patterns theoretically known to you, to slowly form on the charts and keep watching everyday over hundreds of stock charts;
  8. Remain stuck to your PC and wait for such patterns theoretically known to you, to slowly move and confirm their completion;
  9. Remain stuck to your PC and once such patterns theoretically known to you have been completed and confirmed as per your subjective judgement AND price, pattern, sentiment and momentum etc. are aligning to move in same upward direction as per your subjective judgement, then take a risk by entering the trade while keeping position size small enough so as not to lose more than 1–2% of your Trading Capital if the trade still does not go in your intended direction and Stop Loss is hit;
  10. Have the rare courage and psychological mental make up to close the losing trade irrespective of loss being incurred.
  11. Using this approach, the Trader is already set back by lakhs of Rupees every year even before he places his first trade of the year. Each such Trader would start with a negative balance of lakhs of Rupees even before he places his first trade.
Choice 2: to hand over your money to a portfolio manager / hedge fund manager / Mutual Fund:
  1. You will need a minimum threshold initial capital limit of tens of lakhs of Rupees before Commercial Portfolio Managers / Hedge Fund Managers would take your money to manage as a client.
  2. In addition, you will be liable to pay hefty Portfolio Management Fees and Share (typically 20–25%) of Profits, if any, to Commercial Portfolio Managers / Hedge Fund Managers.
  3. As regards Mutual Funds, it is quite tedious to select the right Mutual Fund to meet your expected investment / growth objectives.
  4. Mutual Funds are also often loaded with heavy Fees and Charges which reduce the actual returns to the subscribers.
  5. It may also not be the best or affordable option to invest Rs. X and expect a steady return of Y% return per annum?
  6. Should You Leave Stock Picking to the Pros?
    1. Many mutual fund managers follow the crowd. Supposedly, professional stock pickers will outperform the broad market.
    2. But, so far in this year 2017, many investors in actively managed mutual funds have been disappointed (CNBC, July 13):
    3. “Active fund managers had their worst first half ever, with fewer than one in five beating a basic market benchmark, according to data … that go back to 2003.
    4. Stock pickers were done in by two major factors: following the crowd and an uneven pattern of correlations among stocks.”
    5. Investors probably presume that the manager of their Fund evaluates stocks independently. But there is long seen evidence that groupthink is pervasive among money managers. They consistently do the opposite of what they should be doing for maximum return.
    6. Such herding is a reason for the lackluster performance of most actively managed funds to make you aware of the need for independent investment thinking. This includes an objective analysis of the market's price pattern that may lead to forecasts that differ from the prevailing sentiment.
  7. As you may also see in the interview with America’s Top Trader Eric Fry, even the biggest Wall Street Hedge Fund Managers / Portfolio Managers are very much prone to repeated year-to-year under performance.
  8. Even Star Mutual or Hedge Fund Managers are often as helpless as you and they may often act first in their self-interest and then only, may be, in your best interest.
  9. One of the biggest drawbacks of handing over your monies with hope in others to manage, is that it teaches you nothing except to sign your cheques and, to say in lighter words, to put your saliva on the postage stamps to send the cheques to them.
  10. Sophisticated Traders/Investors do not invest in this manner.
  11. For example, it is difficult to imagine top names like Warren Buffet, Martin Pring, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, Eric Fry, Jim Rogers, Robert Prechter, George Soros and scores of other top Traders/Investors investing in this manner.
  12. However, if you have money to invest but not the time, effort and energy, you might choose this route to participate in the stock markets.
