(Good) Timing is Vital; Don’t play the Waiting Game

Timing is the vital ingredient when investing on the stock Market – and, yet, it is so often left as just a matter of luck (both good and bad).

A common example of bad timing is the investor who “waits until the market is more settled”. The problem with that is that once the market has “settled” it is usually too late as the main, profit producing, rally (which the investor has waited for to confirm that the market has “settled”) will be over.

Investors who have held back waiting to see that a good rally has taken place misconstrue that as likely to continue. They believe that the market has “settled”. What generally happens then is that the market retraces back and the late-entry investor loses money (again).

There is always risk associated with stock market investments and losses are part of the scene but good timing – i.e getting into the market in advance of a possible strong rally – is vital to making money on the stock market.

With this in mind you might like to request our latest ‘FTSE Forecast’ report as this highlights the possible, profit producing, rally that could be just ahead (go to the Home page).
