How To Get A High ROI In Stock Market Trading
from: Nicky PilkingtonThe Return on Investment (ROI) in stock market trading is the
profit you make on the sale of a security or other asset divided
by the amount of your investment. ROI in stock market trading is
expressed as an as an annual percentage rate.
Return on investment (ROI) is stock market trading includes all
the income you earn on the stock. It also includes any profit
that results from selling the stock. If the sale price plus any
income is higher than the purchase price, then you have a
positive ROI. If the sale price plus any income is lower, then
your ROI is negative.
Of course as a stock market trader you are always looking not
just for a positive but a high ROI. Below are some ways to
ensure that you get a high ROI in stock market trading:
Always know what your buying
The most important thing to do to ensure high ROI in stock
market trading is to acquire as much information as possible
about the company you are planning to invest in. Do some basic
analysis to find out if the stock is worth the price or else you
will be gambling. You can always ask other people to the
research for you if you don't have time. Reliable sources are
websites of major brokerage houses, finance publications and
mutual-fund companies.
Don't confuse smart investing with a bull market. There are many
reasons why you could be getting a high ROI in stock market
trading. One is you could really be investing smartly. Another
is that you could just be lucky enough to be in the right place
at the right time and made money with hardly any effort.
Sometimes we feel smart when the market is going up so we're
tempted to trade more frequently and take on riskier positions.
Avoid active trading
It is tempting to trade frequently especially when your gaining.
This is particularly true with online stock market trading where
investing is only a few clicks of the mouse away. But remember
that it's tough to make money by beating the market
consistently. It is advisable to employ a buy-and-hold strategy
to ensure a high ROI in stock market trading.
Mind the taxes
Frequent trading could also be very costly particularly so with
high income taxes triggered by profits that could reach as high
as 40%. To get a high ROI in stock market trading therefore, it
is advisable to buy and hold for a period of at least a year so
you would qualify for the lower capital gains rate of 20%.
