Sometimes the best stock to buy is the one you already own.

The key to successful trading is to make consistent profits that, when strung together make for a big return. That happens by being tactical and smart, not by gambling with too much risk.

Stock trading is a dynamic process... when things are working and the market is in a strong uptrend you get concentrated and raise exposure. The rest of the time is light trading smaller positions or cash.

When a stock falls precipitously and drastically underperforms the market, it’s usually a warning — not a bargain.

Amateur traders strive to be right; pros strive to make money.

If you find it difficult to be on the sidelines, waiting for your setup, remember it’s not about the action. It’s about the money.

In the stock market, there is no truth without believers. That’s why you should never buy the story and never buy the numbers without price confirmation.

Learn to trust your eyes, not your ears. If the stock’s price action is not confirming the fundamentals, stay away!

Compound Money, Not Mistakes.

The best way to take control of your trading is to understand the math behind your results. This will put you on the road to success, because you will know the truth and become empowered.

Not losing big is the single most important factor for winning big. As a speculator, losing is not a choice, but how much you lose is.

Trading is one of the most potent litmus tests for showing what you’re made of.

Before you make the trade, you control:
What you buy
How much you buy
When you buy

After you make the trade, you control:
When you sell

With only one decision that you have direct control over after you’re in a trade, imagine how important that decision must be.

Stock trading doesn’t have to be a nerve-wracking experience. All it takes is a good plan based on solid trading principles. Part of that plan is sacrificing trades that carry too much risk.

You also have to realize and confront that it’s your own laziness, lack of discipline, and failure to prepare that will lead to poor performance—or even your financial demise.

Practice does not make perfect, it only makes habit. Only perfect practice makes perfect. If you're practicing wrong, all you are doing is perfecting mistakes. That's why top coaches get paid so much. Knowing how to develop the correct habits is priceless.
