Trade at your own risk. I am here only to vomit out my feelings

Definitions

Fox                      Sly, cunning, smart, quick, eats every thing and any thing.

 

Hedgehog             Laser like focus, opinionated, strong willed, sees every thing through his own lenses, looks out through the tip of                              the nose.    

 

In the share market, are you a fox or a hedgehog?

In looking for a portfolio fund manager, you want to look for a fox

To be a super investor, you need to be a hedgehog with one big idea. An entrepreneur. Good entrepreneurship, Risk taking ability. All in. Sailang. 

Are you a fox or a hedgehog?

Throughout most of my investing career, I was a fox.

In the last 12 months or so, I am slowing slowing being convinced I have to be a hedgehog if I want to make it big. 

 

Pros and Cons

 

Fox - pros

conservative

better forcasting ability

lower risks

suitable for retirement funds

 

Fox - cons

trades too often

 

Hedgehog - pros

one big idea

chance to win big

very selective and convincing

suitable for entrepreneurship funds

 

Hedgehogs - cons

stubborn streak

 

 

The feature of the fox  is his constant activity

The feature of the hedgehog is his "One Big Idea"

 

Are you a fox or a hedgehog?

Are you true to yourself operating to your strengths  or operating to your weakness?

Is what you want aligned with what you are ?

 

Are you a Warren Buffett wannabe reacting to every analysts fear and greed?

You have to develop your own style, your own personality, to each his own.

Have confidence in your ability but also seek out a sifu, a mentor you can trust.

There is no place for Warren Buffett wannabes

Its all an illusion, a marketing ploy.

I got a few warrants before...makes 100% within a couple of weeks.

But each time, very small amounts only compared to buying good shares.

Jaks good eh?

Typically I will look at the charts and sell it already.

Now, I am immune to the chart and think of IPP and YTL . I also want to be Francis Yeoh.

I wrote an article on that too. The reason I wrote that is as pre emptive strike. Typically cannot keep the profits for more than one month. Make from A lose to B.
Wrote that article to prevent myself from losing back as I sense my trading profits (eg Hibiscus and other penny stocks ) is building up too fast, very fast during the penny stocks run earlier.


How to make money and not lose them all back later.?
