📉 EMOTION – THE HIDDEN ENEMY IN INVESTING 📈
Investing is not just a game of numbers, charts, and analysis – it is also an unyielding battle with our own emotions.
We often know what is reasonable, but in reality, emotions lead us to act contrary:
• When the market is booming 📈 – Greed drives us to buy at the peak.
• When the market is crashing 📉 – Fear pushes us to sell at the bottom.
• When others succeed – Jealousy and FOMO lead us to abandon our personal strategy.
• When facing losses – Anger or despair can push us into reckless decisions.
💡 Successful investors are not those who are always right – but those who control their emotions best.
How to control emotions in investing?
✅ Have a clear strategy and stick to discipline.
✅ Keep an investment journal to track your mindset and decisions.
✅ Invest with money you can afford to lose.
✅ Learn to "wait" – sometimes doing nothing is the wisest action.
