A Mega-Thread on Jesse Livermore’s Wisdom:
1. Never be completely bearish or bullish on the whole market because of one group or a few stocks have reversed its course from the trend.
(Would Appreciate a retweet as a lot of efforts are put by our team to compile these threads)
2. There is only one side of the market and it is not the bull or the bear, but the right side.
3. Don’t trust your own opinion and back your judgment until the action of the market itself confirms your opinion.
4. Markets are Never wrong – opinions often are.
5. The real money made in speculating has been in commitments showing in profit right from the start.
6. As long as a stock is acting right, and the market is right, do not be in a hurry to take profits.
7. One should never permit speculative ventures to run into investments.
8. The money lost by speculation alone is small compared with the sums lost by investors who let their investments ride.
9. Nothing new ever occurs in the business of speculating or investing in securities and commodities.
10. Never sell a stock because it seems high-priced.
11. I become a buyer as soon as a stock makes a new high on its movement after having had a normal reaction.
12. Watch the market leaders.
13. The human side of every person is the greatest enemy of the average investor or speculator.
14. Wishful thinking must be banished.
