    Makes me feel better to know I'm doing the right thing by not getting in when a stock is skyrocketing. But it's still tough not to get frustrated that I seem to keep missing opportunities that way LOL.

    I have been trading on plus500 for a bit to learn trading, I win a lot, more time then I loose, but one thing I don’t understand is when I want to buy at a certain rate, it doesn’t let me? as in you buy whereveee you want too and it doesn’t allow me to do that, e.g a market is 1.0808 it forces my “opening rate” to 1.0820 if you get what I mean? It’s hard to explain, what do u think? Thanks boss

    watched the video, heard what u said and i agree not to buy a stock while its on the rise. tho im confused on what do to once its does take that dip down. just because it dropped for a second i still don't know what its going to do. could keep going down or go right back up. also shouldnt you look back a few minutes or so to see maybe the over all trend to get a better idea of what might happen. also if u do take a loss, instead of cutting your losses couldnt you hold it? maybe for the day or a day or two? or even longer? to at least not take as big or a loss or even make your money back?
    Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

  • @rayensabandar8392
    @rayensabandar8392 4 роки тому +1

    I'm really confused here, so it's best to buy stock when it's going down to lower the risk of losing money right? coz if you buy it when it kept going up, there's a risk that it will start to go down and would not go up in a certain time. But, what if when we bought it when it's going down or sideways and it's still going down? Wouldn't we still be losing money just with a lower risk?
