锘? What sets average and successful investors apart is their psychology or way of thinking. Although all master investors use very different strategies and investment tools that may even contradict each other

For example, Warren Buffett will only buy a company if it has shown consistent earnings growth over five years, has little debt, has a high return on equity, has a strong management team and is selling at a price that is way below the company's intrinsic value. If a stock does not meet every single criterion

Successful investors never allow their decisions to be swayed by their emotions or by the advice of other people. For example, many successful investors have a rule for selling their investments and cutting their losses once their investments fall 10%-20% below their purchase price. The moment this happens, they sell without thinking twice.
They never let fear, pride or ego get in the way. On the other hand, most average investors (who keep losing money) do not have a system for investing. They buy and sell based on the opinions and advice from their friends or relatives (who are usually broke too).
Their decisions are usually driven by the emotions of fear and greed, instead of a set of well-defined criteria.
2. Admit Your Mistakes Early.
Successful investors know that no matter how great their investment strategy is
Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping , it is never hundred percent accurate. They know that no matter how smart or experienced they are, they too make mistakes. The difference between successful investors and average investors is that the former admit their mistakes early.
Once successful investors know they have made a wrong investment decision (the stock price moves against them), they will sell and minimize their losses immediately. On the other hand, most average investors hate to admit that they made a bad decision. They will start giving excuses and hold on to their bad investments in dissent.
As a result, they make huge losses that wipe out any gains they may have made in the past. As quoted by legendary billionaire investor George Soros, master investors know that they may be wrong from time to time. However

3. Become An Expert and Don't Rely on Experts
The third success habit of successful investors is that they only make investments in areas in which they have an expertise. Great investors make investment decisions with a high probability of success not because they are lucky or because they have a crystal ball.
Their successful track record comes from the fact that they have a tremendous depth of knowledge and expertise in their area of investments. All this comes from hours of research and study. Warren Buffett is so good at being able to pick companies that will increase in value simply because he has a very good understanding of how businesses work.
He will spend hours reading the company's annual reports and dissect every price of information before making a decision. The reason why Warren Buffett makes very few bad decisions is because he only invests within his circle of competence. He only invests in businesses which he knows and understands inside out.
The reason why Buffett avoided investing in any Internet businesses during the dotcom boom of 1998-2000 is because he did not understand their business models. By so doing, he avoided one of the greatest market crashes in recent history.
4. When there is Nothing to Invest in, Don't invest.
One of the main reasons why many professionally managed funds are not able to consistently beat the S&P 500 is because they are required to invest 80% of their funds into the market at any one time. If they were to hold more than 20% of their assets in cash, they will be criticized for not putting the money to work.
The problem is that it is not always a good time to invest and you will not always find investments that match the investment criteria of a successful investment. By constantly having to be invest in the market; they suffer as much losses from bad investments as they do enjoy the gains from good ones.
The trouble is many amateur investors make the same similar mistake and are quick to jump into the first investment that comes along. One thing I have noticed about all great investors and traders is that if they cannot find an investment that confidently meets all their criteria, they do not invest or trade.
Successful investors have the patience to wait indefinitely until they find an investment with a very high probability for success and a low risk of loss. Only then do they make the confident decision of taking a large position
5. Take 100% Responsibility for Your Results
As a successful investor
Cheap China Jerseys , you must have the attitude of taking full responsibility for the results you have acquired, both success and failure. Lousy investors tend to give excuses and lay blames whenever they lose money. Their usual responses include: "my broker gave me the wrong advice", "the market went against me" or it's just bad luck.
