Investors - Time To Consider Shifting To Buying Real Estate

Investors in Stock Market will have a tough time with fierce volatility expected in 2013-2014. What we are witnessing today is not correction, but beginning of a deep correction, if not a long term Bear Run. Frankly speaking, a deep correction or a cyclical Bear Run have almost the same devastating effect on investor money. Such market conditions are beneficial only to smart traders and that too in the futures market, because when the market is trending down then the futures trader can go along-with the market and sell  futures position. As the market slides lower, such a trader can make profit by buying (squaring off his position) at lower level. In this manner a trader can make profit when the stock market is correcting/ in the grips of a bear hug.

In second paragraph of my blog-post on 14 Apr 2013, I had emphasized this fact that the present time is not conducive for Investors in stock market. This time in the stock market is only for traders. You can access that post here :http://archana-archdeb.blogspot.in/2013/04/execute-your-trading-plan-now.html

Commodities Market
If it is not stocks, then can you invest in commodities? The answer is 'No'. The commodity prices also have nose dived and they are just precursor to even worst things to emerge in the commodities front. Gold which was considered by investors as safe haven, is no longer so. We can expect 2013-2014 as very bad years for investors in Gold. Single day historical drop in gold prices of more than Rs 1500/- is just telling us that Bear Phase in Gold has started. After a Bull Phase of nearly 12 years, one can easily conclude that the Bear Phase will last at least two years.

Property Market
The only place left in India to invest now is the property market. That too in select places where the growth potential is maximum. With lot of policy easing lined up by the Govt (as Finance Minister is making us believe) to attract foreign capital, property market is set to boom. What will help is softening of commodity prices, which in turn will lower inflation and that will give impetus to RBI Governor to lower rates. On the sidelines, the current account deficit (CAD) in India will improve with price of oil cooling off and gold losing its luster with investors thereby lowering demand and import bill. All said and done, real estate market is ready to take off and that is the place to park your money, if you are an investor.

For investing in real estate, three most important things to be kept in mind are as follows:-

1. Your property investment  should be in a place with high potential of economic activities.
2. The location of the property should be such that it has very high connectivity, by Road, Rail and Air.
3. If you are looking at a property purely from investment angle, then it makes more economic sense to buy a commercial property, since the returns will be mush higher than residential property.

Besides what is given above, in places where you know Metro Rail is going to expand in a couple of years, such locations have an exponential potential of  giving you high returns. Place like the new Commercial Business District(CBD) of Gurgaon towards Manesar is one such sweet spot for investors and lot of builders have started executing their grandiose plans there. After a detailed survey and analysis, I would recommend one such builder and his not to be missed offer of Assured Return of 12% till completion of the project or five years whichever is later.

State of the Art commercial property is Aquarius IT Park at Sector 74 Gurgaon, being developed by Vigneshwara Builders and the only builder in this commercial business district of Gurgaon who has been given the permit to build a rooftop helipad. Those investors who are interested to get the exact details should contact their General Manager (marketing), Mobile No : 09359210404.

Market Stock Trading Trend

In case you are getting frustrated with trading a market which seems illogically volatile, then you should be reading this. It will give you insights to Market Stock Trading Trends that you can easily identify and make quick profit. But then in doing so you need to be nimble footed, you need to quickly take decision to enter the market with a stock futures trade, and without getting too emotional you should as quickly move out of the trade.by way of taking profit off the table. That is easy said than done, until you learn to identify such market stock trading trend. So here I am going to help you identify such trading trends in the ensuing paragraphs. Here we go!

Market Stock Trading Trend

Even when the market is not showing any long term or medium term trend, that is when the market is not trending, you will find smaller trends in the short term. Basically these trends are due to Wave nature of the market movement and can be profited from in near term trading. Let us first understand few basic principles of Market Stock Trading Trends :-

1. Any market movement will take place in the form of Waves.
2. These waves move up in five steps in Bull Run, and conversely move down in five steps in Bear Run.
3. Movement of waves in five steps upwards means that the first step will go up, second step will come down but not below the low of first step, third step will go up higher than the high of first step, fourth step will come down but not lower than the high of first step and fifth step will either go higher than third step high or equal to that high.
4. This means that for a market trending upwards, there will be three steps taking prices upwards and there will be two steps taking prices lower. Same will be the opposite case for markets trending lower.
5. The three steps which take the prices upwards will again move in five-step waves, and the two steps taking prices lower will move down with three-step waves.

If we have assimilated this preliminary information about market movement, then we can apply this for short term trading. For identifying Market Stock Trading Trends in the short/near term in a daily stock chart, follow the instructions given below :-

• See the daily chart of a stock and try and identify whether the short term trend is up or down.
• If it is up then identify whether the third step of the wave has started or not.
• Catch the third step of the wave as it begins and buy the stock. Remember the third step of the wave is generally the most profitable with minimum risk. This step will take the prices higher than the high of first step as discussed earlier.
• As the prices go higher than the high of first step, keep a trailing stop loss and go with the price movement. As the price moves higher, move your trailing stop loss higher, till you are stopped out. This your your exit.
• Since you are looking for very short term profit, trade with stock futures so that you can get a leveraged profit, which can be substantial. In terms of Return on Investment, your profit should be averaging 25% in 4/5 trading sessions.

Hope you have got some useful insights into Market Stock Trading Trends and can use this information to profit in this market. Always use your stop loss after entering any trade. In later posts I will be giving you tips on Swing Trading Indicators so that you can enhance your prowess in Market Stock Trading Trends.

Trading Plan : Stocks Hit Target on Third Day

Those who are trading with my Trading Plan as given on 14 Apr 2013 here http://archana-archdeb.blogspot.in/2013/04/execute-your-trading-plan-now.html would have realized how powerfully some of the recommended stocks have responded in a market that was lackluster today. In fact the market closed absolutely flat with no clear direction. Even then some of stocks which achieved their first target are discussed below :-

1. JSWENERGY. Bought at 56.5 for 1st tgt of 60. Closed at 61.1. Lot size : 4000. Capital Invested : Rs 38500/-(cost of one lot). Profit realized if sold on 1st tgt : Rs 14000/-. Profit percentage : 36.3% in 3 days. In case you have not booked profit at 1st target and are playing for 2nd target of 64, then do keep trailing stop loss to protect your profits as the stock price moves towards its 2nd target.

2. UNITECH. Bought at 24.5 for 1st tgt of 26.5. Closed at 27.25. Lot size: 10000. Capital Invested : Rs 53500/-(cost of one lot). Profit realized if sold on 1st tgt : Rs 20000/-. Profit percentage: 37.3% in 3 days. In case you have not booked profit at 1st target and are playing for 2nd target of 30, then do keep trailing stop loss to protect your profits as the stock price moves towards its 2nd target.

3. JPASSOCIAT. Bought at 70 for 1st tgt of 75. Today's High at 75.8. Lot size : 4000. Capital Invested : Rs 56000/-(cost of one lot). Profit realized if sold on 1st tgt : Rs 20000/-. Profit percentage : 35.7% in 3 days. In case you have not booked profit at 1st target and are playing for 2nd target of 81, then do keep trailing stop loss to protect your profits as the stock price moves towards its 2nd target.

4. AMBUJACEM. Bought at 173 for 1st tgt of 185. Closed at 186.9. Lot size: 2000. Capital Invested : Rs 55400/-(cost of one lot). Profit realized if sold on 1st tgt : Rs 24000/-. Profit percentage: 43.3% in 3 days. In case you have not booked profit at 1st target and are playing for 2nd target of 194, then do keep trailing stop loss to protect your profits as the stock price moves towards its 2nd target.

In yesterday's trading two stocks had achieved their first targets and in today's trading four stock have achieved their first targets. In other words in three days of trading as per my recommendations, six stocks have achieved their first targets. And one could say that the profits attained are reasonably sufficient. Let us now see how all my recommendations fare till the expiry of April contract, which is on 25 Apr 2013. Best of trading!!!
