You want to invest or just trade (quick buy and sell)?

Also, what kind of returns are you expecting?

Default TIMING the Markets

There is never such thing as RIGHT time to enter a market.

2 strategies to ensure that one does not need to Time the market/stock:
1) BUYING IN SMALL QUANTITIES ON DIPS,
2) SELLING IN SMALL QUANTITIES ON RISE


Timing the markets is not the best decision to do. Though, its fine that one can do some shopping on corrections. But, there is nothing like timing the market. One should enter the market in small quantity/lots. One can do buying in small tranches at various point of time. Thus, spreading the risk at different poin in times is important just as one follows SIP ruote in Mutual Funds. In stock markets, there is nothing like SIP, so we ourselves have to spread the risk over different point of time & prices.

It would be prudent to break the Cash that one wish to deploy in stock markets in to 4 parts & employ them one by one at different points of time/prices.

Also, it is not advisable to time the stock at some low/bottom price & wait for that illusive bottom & lose the opportunity to buy the desired stock. Rather it would be prudent to buy in 4 small lots at different price points on approximately every 5% to 7% dips.This strategy can be called as "BUY IN SMALL QUANTITY ON DIPS".

Similarly, one can use the same strategy while SELLING also "SELLING IN SMALL QUANTITY ON RISE"; this ensures that an investors does not sell whole quantity held at one go & miss the bus for the remaining part of the upward journey in the specific stock.

To get the feel of the market, you need to spend time in the market.

As Bulls has suggested in the above quote, you should enter the market at dips by purchasing in small quantity. This gives you the chance to go with the market and as you start spending time, you get the hang of it.

Its better late than never, if you are an investor and not a trader. Markets have given good returns over the long term generally.

So go ahead dude, start investing.
