I been seeing more and more folks selling out of their holdings and either going into cash or buying something else just because the original company is down and it’s (probably) painful to look at the loses.

​

A few pointers to deal with this “feeling of discomfort”

​

If you are selling just because you are down and not comfortable at looking at your portfolio maybe just log out and take a breather before making any major decisions (sleep on it)

​

Sometimes we do make mistakes and have to cut losses but sometimes we just need more time

​

If you do sell and buy something else, how much time did you spend on researching the new company? What makes you think that this one is better? No one knows better then you

​

If you are making some mistakes but you learn from them they are not mistakes but lessons and those are okay to make. The problem is when you are making same mistakes time after time and maybe should not be doing individual stock picking.

​

If you watch twitter or other stock related TV channels maybe it’s time to take a break from it and just focus on some other things

​

Reflect on the NOW to be able to handle the turbulence otherwise there is no point of doing this because the next time it’s going to be the same thing again

​

I hope this will help someone , if you have any questions about psychology of the market or need any feedback I’m more then happy to help whatever way I can

​

I can’t tell you if you should buy or sell something but I can try to guide you and help find your personal solution.
