10 LESSONS FOR STOCK MARKET BEGINNER

Applicable in any kind of investment

Lesson #1

INVEST ONLY AN AMOUNT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE
Ito ang pinaka – common saying in investing but a lot of us tend to forget because of failure to follow this Lesson). Every time you put money in any investment, always have the mindset of buying something and you lost it already. Ang key attitude here is learn to detach yourself with the money you’ve invested because detachment is one of the secrets of just holding it steady during market crashes.

Lesson #2
STOP CHASING (Fear of Missing out FOMO)
Those who were not constantly reading news feeds and will be late in reacting to the downtrend and when they eventually decided to try trading it on online exchanges they lost more  by reacting late during the last dip and late again when converting back to during the recovery, Masyado ng late.

Lesson #3
MANAGE YOUR EMOTIONS
Iyong bang kaya mong hwag maging emosyon sa pagdadaanan mo na roller coaster. Isa sa mga na appreciate ko in all my years of investing in different businesses, mainly  the stock market is that I learned to manage my emotions kahit paano natuturuan ka nitong harapin ang mga susunod na pagtaas o pagbagsak. Ang pag iinvest ay walang pinag kaiba sa pag tayo ng isang business , for every problem and crisis there’s always an equal amount of opportunity that is available. When you are emotional, you only see the problem and not the gem of opportunity behind this.

Lesson #4
DON’T INVEST SOMETHING YOU NEED FOR THE SHORT-TERM
Minsan may nakausap ako, gusto mag invest sa Stock Market tapos I withdraw daw niya after a year or two. Pakiwari ko eh, ‘di niya naiintindihan ng malaliman pa ang Stock Market. You should only invest money that you have no plan of using for more than a year or much better you have no plan of using at all. Tass baba kasi ang Stock Market,  Time Deposit ang mainam na gusto ma withdraw agad, pwede din ang emergency fund ditto, pero mga 1 to 2 percent pwedeng interest ditto at para sa mas safer pa, maaring retail bonds ang kunin.  If you invest something that you need for the short-term then you don’t have the advantage of being patient, calm and relax during dips and crashes.

Lesson #5
WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE THERE’S NO CONVICTION
Those who sold off easily and got off  are the people who did not research about the technology and its fundamental use cases. Iba kasi na they simply bought out of hype and eventually sold quickly after taking a loss. If nalalaman lang talaga ang kabuang ng isang investment walag maloloko,

Lesson #6 

ALWAYS BE READY, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN
Gayunpaman, maghanda! Bakit kasi ‘di natin alam kung kelan babagsak or kakaroon ng maraming Kendi, anytime maaring may malalim na pag crash pa ang darating o di natin alam ang pagbulosok ng isang stocks. Yung mga ‘di nagbabantay ng iniinvest nila sila itong mawawalan.

Lesson #7
BE BETTER FOR THE NEXT BATTLE

Lahat naman ng investment may pros and cons, may talo at may panalo. Pag pumasok ka mga investment na gaya ng Stock Market, alam mo dapat na kailangan marunong ka bumangon sa pagkaka talo and iimprove mo sa susunod mo na pag sali. Decision skill ang need dito na una sa lahat na maimprove mo. Be ready for next uncertainty.


Lesson #8
BE READY TO LOSE 50% IF YOU WANT TO GAIN 1000%

Lahat naman ng investment may risk. Iyong mindset kailangan mo siyang ihanda. Kung papasok ka sa investment na mataas ang risk like stock market kailangan nakahanda ka more or less every single time. Hindi mo kasi alam ang galaw ng merkado bukas or mamaya. Handa ka dapat sa 50% loss para sa 1000% na gain na maaring dala nito in future.

Lesson #9
BUY AND HOLD
If you are believing in one stock after certain study and all effort to understand their business you can avoid bad trades, less mistake.  You can avoid quick small profit  or early out of fear.

Una sa lahat mahirap iasa ang pipiliin mong pag-iinvestan sa ibang tao, marapat lamang makapag tanong tayo sa tamang tao sa may kaalaman at mag tuturo sa atin. Kailangan matutunan mo ditto na maging kalmado kahit matalo ka o Manalo, iyong kaya mong hawakan ang anxiety mo and at the same time kalmado ka.

Lesson #10
NEVER INVOLVE OTHER  PEOPLE

Isa sa pinakamahirap na gawin if ever mag -iinvest tayo is iyong mag -iinvest tayo ng ‘utang’ o hiram na pera galling sa iba or gagamit tayo ng ibang pera para iinvest at ipapangako natin na ito ay kikita sa inaasahan natin, lalong lalo na sa mga ganitong may possibility na may malaking losses o walang ka tiyakan ang pagkita ng inaasahan natin.

On Final thoughts, investments is not just about pursuit of money. We should approach investment with learning attitude, money as second and first seek kingdom of God. Any investment must include self discovery and self mastery, treat yourself as lifetime student. Araw -araw ay bagong araw para aralin natin ang ating mga nagawang mali at itama ito sa sunod pang pagkakataon.
