Five Signs To Know If Stock Trading Is For You

As all of you know by now, our vision here in Investagrams is to be the catalyst that increases the investing population here in the Philippines to 10,000,000 Filipinos. In this article, we will be giving a few signs for you to check to identify if STOCK TRADING is for you. This is only focused for those who are looking to actively trade the stock market, this doesn’t include other financial markets like currencies, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and the like. Also, let us tell you that trading is not for everyone, but long term INVESTING is. This article will simply focus on five important signs to contemplate upon based on your own personal circumstances to know if trading the stock market is for you over than just simply being a long term investor.

Here are the five signs to know if the stock trading is for you:

1. YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY FUND

It’s very important that you already have a good amount of savings, have already set up an emergency fund, and preferably already have insurance before you venture out into active trading. This is especially true for those who are already supporting a family. Trading the stock market involves a lot of risks, and losing money is simply a natural consequence of trading. Losses are unavoidable in the stock market, so placing all your money into your trading account knowing that you will also be using those funds to pay for your child’s tuition and the electricity bill is probably not the best idea.

If you’re still in your teen years or early 20s, then you won’t necessarily need to have all the items we mentioned above. Why? It’s because you have TIME. You have the time to work to make up the losses you incur in the market (if ever it comes to that point) and you may also not have the responsibility of providing for your own family yet. However, it’s still important to at the very least have some savings set aside.

You also have to be financially literate in the context of having the DISCIPLINE to follow your budget. How is that related to trading? When you start trading the stock market, you will need to create trading plans and also practice strict self-discipline. Anything less than that may lead to financial ruin, that’s why having the ability to follow a simple budget is very important.

2. YOU HAVE TO BE COMFORTABLE WITH TAKING RISKS

Every buy transaction you make in the stock market, whether it’s in the context of short term trading or long term investing, will always have a certain amount of risk involved. However, there’s much more risk involved in trading. When you invest in the long run, you would (ideally) take some time to research a specific company to see if it’s worth the investment and stick with it for a long period of time. In trading, you could hold a position as short as just a few seconds. When you’re trading you basically make more buy transactions which means you’re taking in risk much more.

But don’t forget, you’re taking these risks in the search of a much bigger reward. Conventional wisdom says that in order to reap a big reward you have to risk a big amount; high risk = high reward. Mark Minervini personally disagrees with this statement, stating that there’s a way to reap the high reward with only little risk involved if you buy stocks at low-risk entry points. Needless to say, there will always be risks involved. This is why you have to be comfortable with taking risks if you want to venture out to trading.

3. YOU HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO CHECK THE MARKET

When you’re a long term investor, since you’re looking at a longer-term timeframe, it’s okay to only check your holdings once a week whenever you’re available. However, if you want to trade the stock market it’s highly advisable to check the market at the very least once per day. Wanting to trade the stock market doesn’t mean you have to stare at your screens from 9:30am to 3:30pm, but it does mean that you will need to find time to check the market. If you’re unable to check the market in the morning, you can simply adopt and END-OF-DAY approach and only check the market between 3:00pm to 3:25pm, right before the market closes. If you really can’t make the time to check the market before it closes, then maybe long term investing would be a much better (and safer) option.

The reason why you need to check the market at least once a day is so you wouldn’t miss out on potential big winners and so you won’t hold on to losing stocks. You never know, that one day you couldn’t check the market might be the day a stock goes up 50% in one day or one of your positions drops -30% in one day. If you want to be alerted whenever your entry price, cutloss, or target profit is hit, you can always subscribe to the INVESTAPRIME in order to gain access to the InvestaWatcher so you can receive the real-time price and news alerts via in-app notifications and SMS.

4. YOU’RE HUNGRY FOR KNOWLEDGE

Being a profitable trader, let alone a market wizard, is not something you will accomplish by watching a few YouTube videos and reading a couple of articles online. When you venture into trading the stock market, you will need to understand that you are ALWAYS a student of the market. The stock market always changes, so you will need to learn how to adapt in order to survive. Also, being a consistently successful trader is a process of perpetual learning; meaning you will need to continuously learn more and more about trading.

One of the major downfalls that cause many traders around the world to blow up their account is when they think they already know all there is to know about trading. Once you believe you already know everything, then there’s no area where you can improve on. If you don’t improve, your performance will remain stagnant. Due to that, many traders get frustrated and start going all-in on their positions in the hopes of achieving stellar performance just to eventually wipe out.

5. YOU’RE DEEPLY PASSIONATE ABOUT TRADING

This is the most important factor of them all, PASSION. We all go into the stock market seeking a way to achieve financial freedom; something we all aim to achieve. You have to remember: IF YOU WANT THE THINGS YOU’VE NEVER HAD, YOU HAVE TO DO THE THINGS YOU’VE NEVER DONE. Simply put, you have to work extremely hard to be great at your craft. Sure, you can go to half-baked, but don’t expect to achieve stellar results. If you don’t give your all in any craft, you won’t achieve it at the highest level.

It’s the same with trading; the only way to achieve triple-digit returns is to put in insurmountable effort to attain that goal. The only way a person would be willing to work extremely hard for something is only if she sees it as her passion. Ask yourself, would you put in so many hours each week working on something you hate? Probably not. Also, if you’re not deeply passionate about trading you might quit after a few rough times. You may miss out on an opportunity to achieve financial freedom only because you couldn’t go through the short term setbacks.

To conclude this article, to those who are still contemplating whether or not they should take the leap and begin trading the stock market, try to take into consideration the five points we enumerated above. However, these are all written guidelines, the best way to know if something is for you is to experience it yourself. If you want to experience what trading the stock market is like first-hand, then you can just simply use our virtual trading platform here in Investagrams so in this way you can experience trading without actually risking real money. Good luck!

How To Spot Better Opportunities In This Day And Age

If you’re like most perpetual students of the market, you’ve probably read a good amount (or plan to) of trading books. Many of which have been published even decades ago like Market Wizards, How To Make Money In Stocks, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, and the like. One common theme appeared in all of these old books; it was SO MUCH harder to trade the markets in the past. Many of these traders had to go on the floor of the exchange every day just to trade while we’re able to trade at the comfort of our homes.

The execution wasn’t an easy task either. Many of the traders back in the 1950’s – 1990’s, especially pit traders who trade commodities, had to go through an all-out screaming battle to get their orders filled. It wasn’t fast either, even if you traded at the floor of the exchange it took time for your broker to buy or sell your positions. With all the advancements in technology, along with the birth of online trading, executing trades can be done in mere seconds. Traders like Mark Minervini used to have to draw and update their charts by hand every single day. All we have to do is open up Investagrams to gain access to the charts.

Aside from being able to trade anywhere in the world as long as you have access to the internet, retail traders today also have access to features that used to only be available to institutional investors. Traders like David Ryan, Mark Minervini, Mark Ritchie, and William O’Neal didn’t have access to real-time price alerts, advanced screeners, automated analytics, and broker information when they were still in the early days of their journeys. Everything they did had to be done manually.

In today’s day and age, all traders, no matter where they are in their journeys, can have access to advanced features the traders in the books we read used to only dream of. No time to watch the markets? No problem, the InvestaWatcher’s got you covered with real-time price and news alerts. Don’t have the time to manually screen through stocks after work? No problem, the InvestaScreener+ will filter out all the stocks for you. Do you want to know the analytics of your trading to improve your performance? Then just simply enter your trades in the InvestaJournal and it will automatically compute all the statistics you need.

These are just some of the features all InvestaPrime+ subscribers gain access to. Our tech team works tremendously hard to develop features that can help the community improve their trading. We interviewed Enzo Cagampan, an early InvestaPrime+ subscriber, to share his experience with the different premium features and how these have helped him unleash the best trader he can be.

Q: Why did you subscribe to the InvestaPrime+ and how has it benefited your trading?

A: Honestly, I wanted to grab the best option possible, moneywise. It cost PHP 5,998 and it included all the Investa products, the auto fib, auto sr, auto 52wkhl, and a booster pack (advanced learning modules) that is good for the year. What more can you ask for? Additionally, I wanted to have a streamlined, clear, and concise way of handling my trades. The InvestaJournal helped me assess my overall performance, and the effectivity of my different trading methodologies. The InvestaWatcher helped me during my busiest days when I couldn’t keep an eye on the market during school hours. The InvestaScreener also gave me a huge advantage to pick stocks that are at par with my standards (my parameters) with a click of a mouse.

Q: What’s your favorite premium feature in the InvestaPrime+ and why?

A: My favorite feature is definitely the InvestaWatcher. This feature alone has already provided so much value to me considering my personal circumstances. I’m still a student, so most of the day I’m busy with class. Not all my professors allow the use of gadgets unless permitted, so there are times I’m unable to keep an eye on the market. With the real-time price and news alerts all I have to do is feel my phone vibrate in my pocket then take a quick restroom break so I can execute if ever my entry, cutloss, or target profit is hit.

Q: Would you recommend other people to subscribe to the InvestaPrime+ as well? Why?

A: Definitely! Even for beginners in the market. As what I have said before, the InvestaPrime+ is INDEED UNDERVALUED. Also, the booster pack alone is worth more than what you have really paid for. This product is not only for individuals who want to take their trading to the next level, it’s also for those who have just begun on their trading journey or those who are too busy with their day jobs to watch the market all day.

The InvestaPrime+ gives those who are busy the capability to take advantage of the opportunities of the market. Having a full-time job or being a student shouldn’t hinder one from being able to compound their money; the InvestaPrime+ helps take this problem away with the real-time alerts from the InvestaWatcher and the fast filtering of stocks using the InvestaScreener+.

Q: How would you feel if the InvestaPrime+ suddenly disappeared?

A: With all honesty and objectivity, I would feel extremely disappointed. When the InvestaPrime+ was first announced, I was initially hesitant to subscribe due to the simple fact that I’m still a student and PHP 5,998 is a big amount for me. I could’ve asked my parents to pay for it, but I’m the type of person who wants to invest his own money into things that can help him improve. I really took my time in reflecting if I should invest in this product or just take my girlfriend out to Samgyupsal six times in a row (joke).

I thought about my personal circumstances, I knew I would benefit greatly from both the InvestaWatcher and the InvestaScreener+ since I’m busy with school work during and after market hours. These were the two features that I knew I really needed. After a few more days of deliberating, I finally made the investment. Let me tell you this, the InvestaPrime+ annual subscription was definitely a great investment; no cutloss needed.

I immediately made a return on my investment in the InvestaPrime+ on my $HLCM trade. I was in class when $HLCM broke out from its base, but luckily I was alerted by the InvestaWatcher immediately. I was able to buy it near 11 pesos then I sold it around 15 pesos. Also, I now journal my trades diligently and conduct monthly reviews of my performance with the advanced analytics given by the InvestaJournal. As of late, I have also been studying on how to use the InvestaJockey to add broker analysis to my strategies. Overall, I love the InvestaPrime+ and I would be extremely disappointed if it suddenly disappeared.

TomaTrader’s Personal Experience

I’m extremely grateful to have a relationship with Javi Medina, Ken Arcano, and Matt Flores.

The first time I saw Javi was during InspirePH last April 2018 when I was still one month into my trading journey. I didn’t really know who he was, I didn’t know he was a professional fund manager nor the first Investagrams Trading Cup Champion; I didn’t even know what the Trading Cup was at the time. To keep it simple, let me just say that Javi’s talk during InspirePH sparked a fire in me like never before. To this day I will never forget when he said that to become a great trader you will need to COMMIT TO MASTERY.

I first met Ken last December 2018 when I was invited to join Kaizen’s meetup. For those who don’t know, Kaizen is a trading group composed of high-level traders who seek continuous improvement. Not only are they great traders, they’re also great people. I was surprised when I was told that Ken’s username on Investa was @anima; at the time, Anima was in the Top 5 during the Trading Cup. Ken, just like Javi, is a great teacher and role model. What inspired me the most was when he told me the story of how he took the leap from working in a corporate setting to becoming a full-time trader.

Matt was the last person I met in the @openjournal team. Matt is a very kind and humble person. Among the three teammates, he’s relatively more quiet compared to Javi and Ken. However, once you get to know Matt and have a conversation with him about the markets, you’ll realize that his quiet composure does not define his knowledge in trading. Matt and I usually have small conversations whenever we meet, and let me tell you that I’ve learned a ton in just a few minutes of talking with him.

There are countless of subscription services out there, but let me just say that relative to the price of subscribing to @openjournal, the value you will receive in return is IMMENSE. A lot of people ask me, “Can newbies join OPEN JOURNAL? Or is it only for high level and experienced traders?” One of the core methodologies used and taught to @openjournal subscribers is the Elliott Wave principle which may seem intimidating to beginning traders. Here’s all I can say, IF you want to take your trading to the next level and learn directly from some of the best traders in the country, then OPEN JOURNAL is for you.

Aside from the learning videos you can access online, which already provide tremendous value in itself, in my opinion the best part about @openjournal is the monthly town halls open to all subscribers. It’s relatively easy for anyone to create videos, post them online, and charge a fee for others to access the videos. However, the amount of effort and dedication to host a monthly town hall is on another level. The mere fact that the team does this on a monthly basis just shows that they sincerely want to help others take their trading to a whole new level.

I was lucky to be invited to their first Town Hall last August. The level of the concepts they taught to the subscribers were on a whole other level, but they taught it in a way that was simple & that everyone could understand. It’s truly different hearing the concepts taught in person rather than solely through videos. I was seated in the front row, so I did my best to take in all they were teaching. Even by just attending that one Town Hall, I can confidently say that I learned a tremendous amount of knowledge regarding their system, cycles, and the trading opportunities available based on the set-ups they teach — more than I ever would in any other event. Most importantly, great food was served (Pwede nang Shake Shak)! For all @openjournal subscribers, attending the Town Halls is definitely a MUST!

My final message to everyone is just to avoid missing out on an opportunity of a lifetime. I’m personally not subscribed to Open Journal yet as I’m still saving up for it, but once I’m able to save up enough money the first thing I’m going to do is invest in myself by subscribing to OPEN JOURNAL. Their 2nd Town Hall is on September 28, so to all of the people going don’t forget to bring your notebooks! How about you, magpapa-FOMO ka ba dito?

Our New and Upgraded Investa vTrade: Limit Orders

Let us give you a scenario to think about: You’re at your office desk patiently waiting for stock ABC to breakout and create a new all-time high once it breaches 5 pesos, it reaches 4.50, then 4.70, then 4.85. However, your boss suddenly calls for a meeting. You’re unable to watch the stock and simply hope for it to wait for you. The meeting ends after 30 minutes, but when you get back to your desk and quickly click alt+tab stock ABC is already up 30% from your buypoint. If you’ve experienced this, you know the struggle of being unable to watch the market throughout the day. Countless opportunities are lost due to the simple reason of being unable to execute during the day.

So, is this just how it’s going to be? One of the main reasons why those with full-time jobs chose to pass on the Trading Cup last year was due to the fact that they’re not always able to trade during market hours because of work reasons. Don’t worry, this time we got you covered. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, you can now take advantage of the opportunities in the market. We’re now introducing our new and upgraded Investa VTrade!

You can now input orders and view your VTrade portfolio straight from your charts for much smoother and easier access. Simply choose the stock you want to purchase then click buy on the right side of the chart to place your order. Choose which portfolio you would like to purchase the stock. Then place your order price and the number of shares you would like to buy.

BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!

For those who are really busy, you can now choose and wait for a stock at a price you want to buy it using our new LIMIT ORDER! Simply choose your order expiry if you want it to be at the end of the day or when you cancel it. Once you click buy/sell, your order will be posted and will be executed when your bid/ask price is met. Now you don’t need to worry about being unable to watch the market the entire day!

Given that the Trading Cup is still a virtual trading competition, whenever you want to buy or sell a stock you used to need to do it at the market price in real-time. With our new Limit Orders, you can now set a buy order at a lower price as you wait for a stock to hit the support level or at a higher price as you wait for a stock to breakout. After setting your buy order, all you need to do is simply wait for your entry price to be hit. Not only that, you can also set a target profit so you can sell your position at an intended higher price without watching it the whole day. However, you will not be able to cut your losses automatically, so execution on risk management will still be done manually. To check the status of your limit orders, simply go to the Pending Orders tab.

Here are some examples

We know that every participant in the Trading Cup is going for the top spot, one missed trade can tremendously impact the outcome at the tail end of the competition. We understand the struggle of watching a stock for a long period of time, patiently waiting for it to hit your buy point, just to miss out on it because of a sudden meeting or anything that can make you unavailable to check the market. That’s why our team worked day and night to develop a feature that will allow you to take advantage of the opportunities of the market no matter where you are.

Trading Psychology: Why it Pays to Have Discipline in the Stock Market

During the early days, people focused on fundamental factors to make investment decisions. People wanted to see increasing earnings, sales growth, surplus profit margins, and the like. However, there were a few who realized that relying solely on fundamentals was not enough to have superior trading performance. Very few traders used Technical Analysis back in the day, the consensus thought people who make their investment decisions based on the price alone were in some sort of cult.

However, over time, more and more people began to use Technical Analysis as a means to pick and choose their investments. Soon enough, traders all over the world began focusing on price over fundamental factors. Although, there was one more factor that only in the previous three decades has been studied thoroughly; mental analysis, or what we all know as Trading Psychology.

Let us give you an example of a trader who likes knowledge in Trading Psychology. Imagine a newbie trader who’s been having a string of losing trades for the first time. The right way to handle this situation is to scale back and trade smaller as you improve your win rate. However, our newbie trader is angry at the market and decides to increase his size threefold to revenge trade his capital back. You all know what happens next, he blows up his account.

That’s what happens when we deviate from our trading plans and rules and allow our emotions to get the best of us. There are four types of emotions that have blown up countless of trading accounts since the inception of the financial markets, those emotions are: GREED, FEAR, HOPE, and REGRET.

How do you master the psychology of trading?

We’re all unique from one another, so the key to mastering your psychology in trading is to find out your own personal strengths and weaknesses.

Let’s take a look at the Four (4) deadliest emotions in trading. We’ll discuss in a separate article in more detail these four emotions, but for now we’ll enumerate them for you:

Greed

This kicks in when you gain a significant amount of profits in a position. Greed is when you tell yourself that you will not follow your exit plan as the trade exceeds your set target price and you believe that your stock will go “to the moon”.

Fear

There are four types of Fear:

    • Fear of being wrong
    • Fear of losing money
    • Fear of missing out
    • Fear of leaving money on the table

Regret

When a loss or a missed opportunity happens that results to a feeling of disappointment and sadness, a feeling of regret occurs.

Hope

As human beings, it’s in our nature to hope when things get rough. However, hoping for a stock to recover after going below your stops has been and always will be one of the main reasons traders lose a majority of their capital.

Here are some basic points you should consider to improve your Trading Psychology:

Embrace uncertainty

There’s only one thing that’s certain in the markets: uncertainty. You have the engrain in your mind that there’s no sure-win investment. Everything that happens in the market is due to probabilities. We can’t control how the market moves, there are countless factors that are not under our control. That’s why it’s important to embrace uncertainty and focus only on the things we can control. So what are your options? If you want to be guided and get an advanced strategy in your trading, you may check out  InvestaPrime and see how our features help you to make efficient smarter decisions.

Visualize your execution process

One of the practices that will benefit you as a trader is mental preparation. If you ever feel the difficulty in pulling the trigger on an opportunity or cutting your losses on a losing position, it’s due to the fact that you are not mentally prepared for the execution. Before the market opens, visualize yourself executing on your trading plans. If you do this consistently, you’ll find it easier to execute during market hours.

Treat losses as the cost of doing business

Losing money in the market can really affect your psyche. One moment a stock goes accordingly to your initial bias only to reverse and hit your stops. That hurts. But only in the beginning. You need to understand that losses are the natural consequence of trading. Even the best hedge fund managers around the world are wrong on their trading decisions 50% of the time. Treat your trading losses as if they’re expenses in your business.

Try to virtual trade

Paper trading is a good way to get a grasp of the market, especially if you’re still starting out. Most traders make the most costly mistakes in the beginning of their journeys, so it’s best you make and learn from those mistakes while trading virtually. You can always use our VTrade app to trade the Stock Market risk-free (Click here for iOS or here for Android mobile phones).

Conclusion

Mastering your trading psychology will help you seamlessly enter and exit trades without certain attachments and emotions. You will be able to execute relentlessly without hesitation or reservation on your trading plan in order to take advantage of the countless opportunities in the markets. Without the right mindset coming into the trading day, you will not be able to perform at the highest level consistently.

The topic of Trading Psychology is very broad, so it’s entire scope can’t be discussed in one or two articles. However, the basic points we’ve mentioned above are a good start to master the psychology of trading. If you want to read more about this, we would recommend the books of Mark Douglas: The Disciplined Trader and Trading in the Zone.

For those are looking for an in-depth topics on Trading Psychology, we highly recommend you to join the upcoming Trading Cup 2019 competition whereby our CEO, JC Bisnar a.k.a. Imbang Klase will provide an mentoring sessions about this via Exclusive Webinars available only for participants. Join here: http://invs.st/TradingCup2019

Davinsoy Trader: How He Traded His Way To Becoming A Full-Time Father

In one of our previous articles we interviewed Diolito Igloria Jr., or commonly known as Davinsoy Trader on Investagrams, to share more about himself to the community. As our team prepares for the upcoming Investagrams Trading Cup 2019, we took a look back at last year’s competition and who were some of the participants who stood out among the rest. Almost everyone on our team mentioned Davinsoy Trader, a super trader from Cebu. If anyone’s unfamiliar with Diolito, let us remind you of his achievements:

  • Investagrams Trading League 2019 Round 1 2nd Runner Up
  • Investagrams Trading League 2019 Round 2 Champion
  • Investagrams Trading Cup 2018 4th Runner Up

However, the greatest achievement we believe Davinsoy Trader got from the market was an opportunity to not only become a full time trader, but most importantly the opportunity to become a full time father. Sir Diolito’s story is tremendously heart-warming, especially for those of us who also want to take trading full time. He is a registered Electrical Engineer and former Accounts Manager, two very stable and good paying professions. He decided to go full time into trading during the tail end of the bull market last 2018.

Diolito’s first two years in the market resulted in him losing is entire capital twice without his wife knowing. Even after she found out, she still continued to deposit funds and support Diolito’s trading journey. Despite losing hard earned money to the market, he never gave up. Diolito continued to persevere despite wiping out twice in the market. With continuous learning, hard work, and dedication he was eventually able to recover all of his losses and more during the 2017 bull market.

From that point on, he decided to resign from his job and trade full time. Diolito now has the time to take care of his child while his wife goes to work. He treats his trading a business, not a game. After a few months, he joined the Investagrams Trading Cup 2018. We all know what happened after, Diolito ranked 4th during the Investagrams Trading Cup 2018 out of thousands of competitors who were all looking to grab a spot in the coveted Top 10.

Davinsoy Trader’s story is truly one for the books. He served as an inspiration for those of us who want to take trading full time in order to spend more time with our loved ones. Despite ranking 4th during last year’s competition, he continues to remain a simple and humble person. There is no doubt in our minds that Diolito is on his way to not only becoming one of the best traders in the country, but also one of the best fathers.
