The Stock Psychology is the important part in trading but it is considered as monotonous one by traders instead they focus on other subject and avoid it often. To me it is the blunder mistake that we do in trading which should be avoided to certain limit. One should be able to control its emotion in whatever circumstances he is, But in words you can easily say in action its quite difficult to follow it. Regarding trading you may face ups and down which is a fact , in such case you may find very tough to make decision as decision making matters the most in picking up the right stock. While you make decision your mind need a relaxed state to select a right choice so for relaxed mind you need to control your emotion, tf that happens your choice may not be wrong.

Fear and greedy makes one to loose their money in market. If one mind is predominated with fear then he may exit the market before getting the profit. There are cases where some stay for a longer period as his mind is haunted with greediness which may also lead to failure .So itry to control your emotion when you involve in decision making so that you can select the best stock that would earn profit.

Let has have a brief outlook on the difference between the common stock and preferred stock. The main difference you could point out at glance is that it serve more than that the common stock serves the traders. First of all the preferred stock owners distribute the dividend obtained by the company among themselves.

To add to its advantage the the preferred stock owner get the share as they hold it even if the company goes down preferred stock owner never frustrate as they get the share whatsoever the state of company . But taking common stock into account the share holders has to wait till the last minute with their mind predominated with fear as they hassle for money in case of company bankruptcy. In case of preferred stock the share holders are on the safer side as they get the money in any state the company are. The common stock holder cannot be cool in bear market as they fear whether they have loss or gain.

Moving on with next benefits, it is really advantageous one for preferred stock holders as they pay more amount initially, resting on the safer side they get the amount higher than the common stock holder as their payment received are predefined.

DRIPs and DIPs

The individual companies issues two types of plans DRIPS and DIPS at a minimal rate. The extension for DRIPs is Dividend Investment Plans. It helps the share holder a lot as they can invest a small amount of money. Here the investors has to pay it at regular interval. The extension for DIPs is Direct Investment Plans. These two plans are really an advantageous one to the share holder as they could buy stock from the company directly.

Every day there is a fluctuation in stock price. If there is a demand then the purchasing will be more. There will be hike in price. In contrary if supply is more then the stock price would go down.

It is easy for us to understand what supply and demand mean for. But complexity lies in the apprehending what makes one to avert a stock or make a favorable stock to the eye of people. Market capitalization represent the value of a company which includes stock price and shares outstanding. Depending on the company value, investors select the company to invest. If more investors invest on a particular company then the stock rate for that particular company go up.


The profit earned by the company also determine the value of a company. Just you can not say that earning matters the most, but it can be said in one word as a case.

Concerning with stock exchange two types are most popular in comparison with other types of stock exchange. New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, American Stock Exchange (AMEX) and London Stock Exchange are the various types of stock exchange prevailing in this world.

Sellers will commence the bidding at lowest rate and as the bid reaches the highest rate prices will be fixed. The buyers buy it. When trade is over brokerage firms get the details then reckon the investors who place the order. The above said was the method followed before computer age i.e in stone age . Now trade is done through computers.
