About me: I am an investor-cum-trader. I do both long term investments as well as short term / day trading.
For long term investments, i highly believe on fundaments and invest only after looking into balance sheets, P&L, capital structure, sector performance, future prospects etc.
For short term investment, i rely on candlestick charts, daily moving averages etc. Short term investments are as small as a few hours to as large as 3 months depending upon targets, hitting stop losses etc.
I am very disciplined investor/trader. I maintain strict stop losses when investing short term. In long term, i often back my investments with more funds if they fall lower.
I readily look into company news, results etc and only choose a company to invest after putting in good amount of time in analysis.
