Keep a Cash Reserve & Be Patient

There are times when playing the stock mar­ket that your money should be inactive - waiting on the sidelines in cash - waiting to come into play.

In the stockmarket - time is not money - time is time ­and money is money.
Often money that is just sitting can later be moved into the right situation at the right time and make a vast fortune – patience – patience.

Patience is the key to success not speed.
Time is a cunning speculator's best friend if he uses it right.

Remember the clever speculator is always patient and has a reserve of cash.

Warren Buffet’s Investment & Life Wisdoms

Spending: If you buy things you don't need, you'll soon sell things you need.

Savings: Don't save what is left after spending; spend what is left after saving.

Hard work: All hard work brings profit; but mere talk leads only to poverty.

Laziness: A sleeping lobster is carried away by the water current.

Earnings: Never depend on a single source of income.

Borrowings: The borrower becomes the lender's slave.

Accounting: It's no use carrying an umbrella, if your shoes are leaking.

Auditing: Beware of little expenses; a small leak can sink a large ship.

Risk-taking: Never test the depth of the river with both feet.

Investment: Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Good Trading Quotes from “Techniques of Tape Reading”

This (Trading) is not a job where you get paid by the hour.
You get paid for doing the right thing.

Forget that your money is at stake. Money in trading account is just a tool for making money. Preserve your tool. You need it to make money.

Don’t let the outcome of one trade alter your trading discipline. One trade doesn’t make a system…

Trading is a game of probabilities. You don’t have to be right every time. You just have to follow your rules.

You decide your fate; the market doesn’t.

Pure followers of stock pickers will never be around… Learn or you are bankrupt.

Be aggressive in trending market and conservative in choppy market.

Take home runs when you can, but don’t beat yourself up about missing a few.
One trade should never make or break your account.
