Hello Community,I hope everyone is having a great week. . Today I want to share my point of view regarding the basic activities we perform in any market, as they are, Buying and selling, it's as simple as that.
Anyone could say that this is nothing special, but the truth is that I believe that knowing how to sell and know how to buy is an art that not everyone masters, and that can determine the differences between both activities the big difference between winners and losers in any market.
I came up with a phrase that I want to share below:
One of the funny things about the market is that every time one person buys, another one sells, and they both think they're being smart. " Willian Fether
I was amused at first by this phrase, since it seems an innocent phrase, but, let's see, it also led me to reflect on it, and on the different scenarios and realities that practically demonstrate these activities. Why does the person who sells at one moment in general terms feel good when others do not?
Obviously, all this is intimately related to the moment in which it was bought, as it is logical to think. If I bought at a much lower price than I sold, it means profit for me, simple as that, but the one who is buying, has the prospect that he will be able in the near or distant future, to sell above that price at which he is buying and get a good profit margin as well.
So the market is an exercise of continuous buying/selling, for others it is more of a GAME OF CHANCE, but not everyone comes out a winner. There is a reality, in all this market play many factors, which are those that will allow us to win or lose, one of those important points is the knowledge that we have of what we are negotiating, if we do not know what we are working with, failure may be imminent, it is likely that this is the main reason why so many lose. It also depends on the market, because we know that there are some that are very volatile, others not so much.
Also the character of the person has a lot to do with the way he trades, if he prefers to work more long term or short term, so we could say that there is no fixed or unique rule regarding the market, in the same way there will be countless visions of the same phenomenon, which is what will lead one guy to sell while another sells, but both feel very clever while doing it.
I know this is a subject that lends itself to many ways of looking at it, but that's the idea, that everyone can have an opinion on it.
