Yes, I’m a trader

Symbol(s) Mentioned: none

I tried the buy and hold strategy because I thought I could be like Warren Buffett. Then I found out that it’s not for me.

I don’t have the emotional discipline to hold a stock for years. My optimal holding period ranges from days to weeks.  Definitely not years.

The basic principles that I apply to my trading strategy is based on the fundamental valuation and just like value investors, I exploit the discrepancy between price and value caused by greed and fear; Mr. Market’s bi-polar tendency.

My current strategy is mainly informed by economic condition and how the market tends to quickly forget about the reality.
