We all know that market is often fluctuating, and can often go against your will. So, a correct and healthy mind-set is required to prevent us to do a rash decision and end up losing all the money. However, how can us maintain a good mind-set when, let say the market is slumping, and facing a bear market?

 

This is actually a combination of the writer’s previous articles, where you can prepare a list of stocks to buy, yet you are unable to buy in normal circumstances because they are too expensive. Hence, everything will be cheap when bear market hits, and you will be able to buy the stocks you have targeted for long. However, you are unable to do so without a healthy cash balance. A lot of people back in 2020 like to all-in, which means putting all their money into the stock market, where they have none left in the pocket. This is quite a dangerous act to be honest, as you have no option other than holding or cut loss if the market is in retracing mode.

 

Especially in this current situation where technology stocks are surging, it looks somewhat similar to the gloves sector back in 2020. If let say someone has the fear of missing out (FOMO), they will go and chase the stock despite most technology stocks are having the PE ratio of higher than 60. On the other hand, for people that have been holding for long, they will regret for not buying more in the past and will add more now, making their current cost much higher compared to their initial cost. This makes them more vulnerable to correction and may face potential loss if a bigger retracement occur as their cost is not low now.

 

On the other hand, props to you guys for holding technology stocks since, let say last year. This is because most technology stocks stay stagnant or only rose slightly in last year, at least not as crazy as now. People who have good confident and patience to wait for the surge do deserve some credit. Yes, you may still earn lesser compared to others who bought glove or some hot stocks, but you earn what you earned, and shall not be bothered by others’ profit. It was said that apprentice knows how to buy where master knows how to sell, but the patience to hold is another level of mind-set.

 

Having a good mind-set is very important, whether in investing or trading. A slight slip will really cost you. For example, the stock you planned to hold for longer term rise 10% in a week and you have decided to sell it and end up rising for another 100%. On the contrary, the stocks you planned to hold for short term, yet you still held it despite it already dropped for 15% and hoping for a rebound. In the end, your portfolio will be full of declining stocks, and sold all the good stocks, just because they rose a bit.

 

In short, you must have a good mind-set. Plan everything properly, manage your portfolio and cash carefully. Build your portfolio bit by bit, and step by step. Do not get annoyed for earning lesser than others, missing a chance will not make you lose money, but mistiming it will. Rome wasn’t built in a day, slow and steady is the way to success.

 

我们都知道市场一直都是浮动的,并时常走势和你相反。所以,一个正确以及健康的心态可以抑制你做出仓促的决定,结果输了所有的钱。但是,我们要如何有个好的心态呢,特别是在市场跌的时候或者熊市的时候呢?

 

这其实结合了笔者所写过的那些文章,首先你可以准备要买的股的清单,而这些股在平时因为比较贵·而买不起的。因此,当熊市来的时候你就能以便宜的价格来买进平时你奢望的股。但是,如果你有很少的现金的话,你就不能做到以上的事情。很多人在2020年的时候喜欢全数买进,把所有的钱都放在市场里,没给自己留条后路。老实说这是蛮危险的,因为如果市场回调的话,你就只能持有着或者止损卖出而已。

 

特别像现在这种科技飞天的情况,跟2020年的手套蛮像的。假设一些人不愿意失去这个机会的话,即使它们的本益比都已经超过了60还是会追高的。另一方面,那些原本就持有着的人,它们会后悔没买够而会在现在买的更多,把他们的平均价拉高。这导致他们会因为市场回调会面对亏损,因为最新的平均价已经不同往日般低了。

 

相对的,笔者也要给那些去年或者更早以前买下科技股的人一点掌声。这是因为去年的科技股并没有现在般疯狂,更多时候是稍微上涨或者横摆。那些愿意等并且对自己的股有信心的人真的很厉害。当然,你可能赚得比那些有买手套或者炒股的人来得少,但你不应该被这个影响,因为别人赚到的都不会是你的,而自己赚到的才是王道。俗话说会买是徒弟,会卖是师傅,但笔者觉得有耐心的等待是另一个境界的心态。

 

有个好心态是非常重要的,不管你是投资还是交易。一个小错误真的会让你付出代价。举例,如果一只股你是要长期持有的,但在起了10%后便将它卖出,结果失去了起100%的赚益。相对的,如果一只股你只想要短期持有,但是跌了15%后你却还持有着,希望他能够反弹。而这个的结果便是你的投资组合会是满满的红色,而好股已被你早早地卖出。

 

总结,你一定要有个很好的心态。把所有东西计划好,好好的管理你的投资组合及现金比例。把你的投资组合一点一点的组装。不要因为赚得比别人少便不耐烦,失去机会并不会让你亏钱,但看错一个机会却会。记得,罗马并不是一天便建造完毕的,慢而稳才是成功的道路。
