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.
