      Hi Gareth. Hope you are fine. Could you please do a review on Robert Lichello's book "How to make $ 1,000,000 in stock market automatically". This book propagates No technical, No fundamental and works purely on mathematical calculation. At the outset I think this will work really well on any index fund and that too with high volatility is best

    Thanks Gareth. Crystal clear as always. Basically, average down on indices & big tracker funds, but not on individual shares. One way of doing this is to buy a very small holding at first and, if it goes down, buy more when momentum indicators suggest a reversal of trend.

    Opinions on the market diverge; some claim overvaluation due to rapid gains, while others cite strong economic fundamentals justifying high valuations. Raises concern for my $600K

    It all depends. I average down all the time, successfully. It depends on the nature of the trade or investment, the condition of the underlying stock or instrument, the time outlook, and a number of other factors. But yes, in a stock like the ill-fated Peloton at $164 a share, attempting to average down a stock that really should be shorted would be a monumental disaster. Essentially there is no bottom.

    If the stock I'm in dips back to 50% retracement, as a lot of stocks often do before moving up, I'll sometimes pick up another unit or two if it's still within the parameters of my system. But ultimately it's about being honest with yourself. If a big red candle with no wick closes below the previous low, it's over. Pull the plug and go look for the next setup.

  • @brycehuff
    @brycehuff 11 месяцев назад +1

    I just throw darts 🎯
    Works pretty well for gambling. But like you said, for my IRA accounts I manage risk by cost averaging index funds while adjusting ratios based on macro trends: Currently $10 each (weekly) TLT, BND, BX (basically a private equity fund), OMFL, VOO, VYM, VONG, QQQ, VTI, VXUS.
    A simpler version is 60/20/10/10 VTI, VXUS, BND, (annual wild card) choose one such as QQQ, SPY, VYM, TAN, BITB, TLT, etc.

  • @freddales8697

    I think averaging down can work as long as you have a position size limit and keep to it. Just buy in tranches as the knife falls, but don’t go over limit of your predetermined limit size.

    I never average down. Almost by definintion the stock is going against the trend. Would you really buy a stock in that situation? If I decide to keep some stock I instead sell enough to cover my initial capital outlay and just hold the rest. Since I recouped my outlay the value of the remaining stock is profit; albeit a declining amount until the stock bottoms out and starts to climb again.

    It's all about timing and time.
    Uptrends have retracements.
    Downtrends have retacements.
    If you understand the long term direction.
    The short term can actually tell you where the market is going.
    Especially for the next little while.
    Assuming you know what you are looking for.
    I lost a lot of $ understanding this stuff.
    I rarely lose trades now.
    Some i am only in for 15 minutes. Others i hold for weeks.
    I have a few rules i live by.
    Trade assets with clear daily directions only.
    Pay attention to news.
    Wait for the banks to make a move. That is especially lucrative with crypto. The bank always sells and so i refuse to ever enter a buy trade on BTC. I wait for the bank to start the feast and then ride the meteorite for a few days. It's the easiest $ in trading.

    High prices for everything have severely affected my plan. I'm concerned if people who went through the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am having now. The stock market is worrying me as my income has decreased, and I fear I won't have enough savings for retirement since I can't contribute as much as before.

    • @Dantursi1
      @Dantursi1 Год назад +3

      It's recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 20% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of investing in the stock market and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

    Yep, I got trapped by a sudden drop on MLGO (which rose to over ten dollars a share). The price collapsed quickly. In the past week MLGO dropped to about 50 cents a share. I diluted the average cost of MLGO to a point where it frequently hits about every month (The do a lot of pumping press releases). I will slide back out from under this stock on the next pump.
    I hope previous patterns hold up. Some stocks go down and never rise again. CGC is a good example of this.

    Every big time investor/trader has one saying in common, let your winner's run and cut losses quick. Averaging down is how you lose capital - better to cut and if you think you want to get back in then do so later with the capital you have saved. If you are averaging down on a etf - the math is out there that doing so in lump sums returns better alpha over dollar cost averaging.

    Hey, have you guys been keeping an eye on the stock market lately? It's been pretty volatile,I lost almost $5m in my stock portfolio. but you know what they say - no fear, right?

      Absolutely! It's all part of the game. I've learned not to let short-term fluctuations get to me. In the grand scheme of things, the market tends to bounce back.

      True, but it's hard to ignore all the noise and speculation. There's always some news or another causing ups and downs. How do you guys manage to keep that "no fear" attitude?

      That's a good point. I was thinking about reaching out to a financial advisor to get their take on the current market situation. With all the optimism, it might be a good time to reassess my investment strategy.

      I totally agree. A financial advisor can provide valuable insights and help ensure that our investment portfolios are aligned with our long-term financial goals. They have the expertise to navigate through market fluctuations and make informed decisions.

    Interesting, i always thought averaging down is the way of the unbeatable, cuz u simply keep lowering your avg price, of course that could work if the stock does not turn into a dead stock plus u have an infinite cash reserve lol

      It’s all I do actually (trading 3x long index ETFs no less) and I even buy more the more the index drops. I simply wait until the index recovers, which it always does, and lock in gains then. A total no brainer.

    Can't average down if the market never drops.

      On average, the S&P 500 falls back to its 200-week moving average every 3-4 years, and even more frequently in recent years - in 2018, 2020 and 2022. This has worked very well since 1983. Before that, the price hovered around this long average line. Be patient - the special offers will come.

    Sounds like "averaging down" is a combination of "buying the dip" and the "sunk cost fallacy". Not a smart move from a risk perspective.

    Yeah no, reduce when it goes against you , if it turns and starts coming back then add back in ... reduce keep eye on higher time frame scenario know volatility dies down around lunch time, dump it for a good as it gets before lunch
