Since the establishment of the Stock Gain web, this is the first time I have thought about sharing the trading records that I have been doing. In this post I want to share a little about the trading results throughout May 2017. Based on my trading records, in May 2017 I managed to make a profit of 9.2% of the shares.
Okay, so that I don't think it's a hoax, here are the details of my share trading buy-sell during the month of May 2017.
(Note: PWON and HRUM shares in the picture above are recorded as buying and selling several times at the same price. I only bought once. Maybe it was a system error that was recorded more than once)
"Why only share the month of May, Mr. Heze?" Ask your curious
Profit of 9.2% per month from the stock for the size of the stock player is quite large, but not spectacular gains. In the previous months, it was still able to get a higher return than 9.2%. I'm sure you can print a bigger return.
But why am I actually sharing the month of May? First, in May 2017 my trading frequency was quite minimal, and May was clear of cut losses. In May I spend a lot of time updating ebooks and launching new ebooks.
Second, the month of May is often associated with the sell in may and go away phenomenon. You can read the article again here: Sell in May and Go Away in the Stock Market: Fact or Myth? Third, I don't trade fried stocks at all.
If you look at my transactions above, I only trade in PGAS, PWON, HRUM, INDY, ANTM stocks. I only trade until May 19th. Furthermore, I was off. But the trading decision that I took was not a random decision. I'm not off because I'm lazy to trade.
I only trade on 5 stocks. I'm looking for discounted stocks that have rebound potential. Of the 5 shares, 3 of them are LQ45 shares. I chose the five stocks that I chose based on the screening and trading plan that I made, so I'm not easily tempted to buy stocks that are not clear or follow other people
On the one hand, because I manage a large capital and there is also a deposit from my parents, I become more serious in making trading decisions, so I don't get trapped easily. This is one of the reasons why I don't trade in fried stocks.
TARGET PROFIT AND MARKET ANALYSIS
As I explained earlier, I only play stocks until May 19th. I made this decision because my profit target has been achieved and is sufficient, so for the rest of May I will only monitor market movements, while aiming for discounted stocks for next month.
In addition to market analysis, the JCI which suddenly rose by 2.59% on May 18 due to investment grade which raised LQ45 shares sky-high, made the JCI prone to correction. And sure enough, if you look at LQ45 stocks in the fourth week of May, many have fallen again.
My principle: Instead of buying and getting stuck, it's better to hold full cash. This is the importance of managing emotions, trading plans, and capital management in trading. A trading plan cannot guarantee a definite profit. But a trading plan can direct us to trade on the right track.
When the profit target has been reached, then yes, like it or not, you have to take rest time from trading. Don't go with emotions. Want to continue to trade for as big a profit as possible at all times. If I follow my emotions and continue to trade, it's not impossible that the 9.2% profit I got was even eroded in the rest of May.
Human nature is that humans will never be satisfied. Profit 9.2% would still be considered less. Even 20% profit will definitely still be less. Therefore, you yourself must be able to control your emotions and desires. How? You must have a trading plan and capital management.
Oh yes, another sell on may and go away (as I explained earlier) does not really affect the market. The proof, in May I can still make a profit. And the last, read on the words I underlined. You have to apply it in your trading.
