What Type of Trader are You?
We all like to think of ourselves as individuals. We like to think of ourselves as astute observers who make up our minds on issues based on sound reasoning and thoughtful analysis. Most of us try to avoid being a part of what’s known as the “Herd Mentality”. Being a part of the herd is only a good thing if you are at the front of the herd. Most of the herd is generally much farther back from the few leaders at the front. This analogy certainly holds true for investing in the stock market.
However, it is almost always the case that the herd follows the money. When a stock starts climbing in price, just watch the volume begin to swell. No one wants to be left out. Hurry, before it’s too late!
Such decisions almost always result in buying high and selling low. And, we know that you would never indulge in such emotional trading. No. Never!
So, let’s look at that somewhat select group of investors that avoid emotional trading. These are individuals who realize the only way to make money, consistently in the stock market is to have a steady discipline approach, coupled with a reliable investment strategy. Someone, perhaps, just like yourself.
The TurnerTrends website and our services have been built with this type of investor in mind. However, we went one step further...
We believe that this group of discerning, thoughtful, conservative investors actually can be divided into two camps: The Independent Investor and the Dependent Investor.
The "Dependent Investor" is someone who wants to manage their own stock investments has the desire to do all the requisite research, analysis and total portfolio management, but just does not have the time. In the past, the only option for this type of investor was to “depend” on the management skills of others such as mutual fund managers, financial managers and/or investment firm management of their investment capital.
Dependent Investors, as a rule, have a strong distaste for letting others manage their investments. But, alas, there were few if any, viable alternatives. If you are this kind of investor, then we are delighted you are reading this article, because now you have a very viable alternative: a subscription to the TurnerTrends Report.
Most subscribers are able to manage a complete, well-balanced portfolio of stocks that have historically produced incredible returns. And, they can manage their portfolio in less time than it takes to read the Sunday paper. For many of the subscribers to the TurnerTrends Report, they are for the first time, able to take control of their stock investments all within a time effort easily managed. The TurnerTrends Report is the perfect tool for the Dependent Investor who is strapped for time.
The "Independent Investor" has all the positive qualities mentioned above, but unlike the Dependent Investor, has the necessary time required to self-manage and maintain a balanced portfolio of stocks.
This is not to say that the Independent Investor has more time on his/her hands than they need. Independent Investors are not looking for asset management, portfolio diversification assistance or capital management. These investors already know how to perform these tasks.
Quite the contrary; the Independent Investor is continually on the look-out for investment tools that will provide an investment edge. The perfect tool for the Independent Investor is one that scans thousands of stocks to pick the best stocks based on both a technical analysis and a strong fundamental analysis. Then, this tool should include recommendations for the right time to buy and the right time to sell. The good news is a subscription to the TurnerTrends Stock Ratings provides you with just such a tool!
So, whether you are a Dependent Investor, an Independent Investor, or even a combination of the two, we have two great services you should consider.
