Compounding
profits to snowball
Remember learning simple
interest and compound interest when you were in school?
No, we don't want you
to recite the formula for interest calculations here. Just wanted
to remind you of a small fact that compound interest amounted larger
than the simple interest for the same rate of interest and same
period.
And today we are going
to look at how we can apply the same principles to create a snowball
effect on our profits from the stock markets.
Let us say, that you
book a profit of 10% every month from your trading activities in
the stock market. (We at www.itrade4profit.in
know this is achievable with our accurate
short term positional calls) Also let us consider that you have
a modest amount of Rs 10,000 which you can spare for your trading
activities and would not want that money for another year for any
other purpose.
A simple mathematics
would reveal that with a investment of Rs. 10,000 and a monthly
profit of 10%, you would earn Rs. 12,000 in a year. Not bad at all,
considering any other investment options available.
But wait, what if we
say that with a investment of Rs. 10,000 and a monthly profit of
10%, you can earn a profit of over Rs. 21,000? Sounds great huh
!!
The trick lies in a simple
fact that you reinvest your profits every month instead of withdrawing
your profits month after month. That is you compound your investment
to compound your profits.
Take a closer look. At
the end of the first month, you have earned a profit of Rs. 1,000
(Rs. 10,000 X 10%=Rs.1,000). Now, instead of withdrawing the profit
of Rs. 1,000 you reinvest the same into your trading activities.
So for the second month, you have a capital of Rs. 11,000 instead
of your usual Rs. 10,000. This 11,000 fetches you a profit of Rs.
1,100 which you again reinvest for the third month, making your
capital ro Rs. 12,100 which fetches even bigger amount of profit.
The following table will
give you a complete picture of the entire period of 12 months

And at the end of 12 months,
your capital employed turns into Rs. 31,384 (28,531 + 2,853), leaving
you free to withdraw the Rs. 21,384 and leaving Rs. 10,000 so that
you can start over again in the new year.
So remember, a habit
of not withdrawing your profits very frequently and reinvesting
those profits in the stock market will bring you much bigger profits.
But how to ensure that
10% average of profit booking? Well,
we, at www.itrade4profit.in do all the necessary analysis of “The
trading sentiment” and “The counter activity index”,
before making any recommendation as a “Positional
Call”. These positional calls usually give a profit of
about 10% in approximately 2 to 4 weeks. Please take a 15 day Free
trial and check out for yourself.
A word of caution though.
If you happen to be bitten by the curse
of the stop loss, and book losses in your trades, then it means
that much less capital for your rest trades. And therefore, your
trades will have to give you bigger profit margins to catch up.
So beware, never book losses. But better still, enter into a trade
where you do not have to fear about booking losses. Go for our positional
calls.
Happy Trading !!!
