Motion Trader Five Secrets

The document summarizes five secrets of successful traders: 1) Trade with the trend, buying as prices rise rather than fall to benefit from momentum. 2) Have many relatively small trades rather than a few big bets to control risk and take advantage of more opportunities. 3) Get good at quitting losing trades through using stop-losses to prevent significant losses on unsuccessful trades. 4) Be slow to take profits and let winners run further through strategies like trailing stops in order to maximize gains from strong trends. 5) Give winners room to move by being less protective of early profits and allowing gains to grow substantially on promising trades.

Hopefully this report helps give you
a bit of that same freedom.

So without further ado, let’s get into it!.


Rule #1
Trade with the trend

“This puts them on Humans tend to continue doing things that


reward them. It could be with relationships,
the right side of a a job, or a holiday destination. Put simply,
if something works, then we generally
keep doing it.

for large share But if you do this, you’re trading against the
price gains”. trend. You’re betting that something not
working today, will work tomorrow. The odds
of success are stacked against you.

So how do you flip the odds in your favour?

Well, you do this by trading with the trend.


That’s how many of the best traders make
money. Their ‘secret’ is to buy as prices
rise, not fall.

This puts them on the right side of a stock’s


momentum, and opens the potential for
large share price gains.
Rule #2
Have many relatively small trades

“Rather than a Many people make the mistake of placing


a few big trades. They believe that’s how
few big bets, the pros make money.

If you want to win big, they say you have


they risk relatively to bet big. Yes, this approach may work
when you’re right. But look out when you’re

you out. This strategy is like playing the

Many of the best traders do the opposite


approach. Rather than a few big bets, they
risk relatively small sums across many
trades. You see, it’s all about making sure
they stay in the game. Controlling risk is
critical. There’s another advantage to this
approach. The more trades you make, the
better the odds of buying into some of the
biggest trends.

The small bet approach is a natural


risk-limiter. It allows for more trades, which
in turn lowers the impact of any one stock.
This often results in better overall performance.

Another benefit is that it can help to defuse


fear. Sure, you could still lose money. But if
the individual stakes are relatively small,
much of the fear evaporates.
Rule #3
Get good at quitting

their fortunes”. quitting pays. You see, there are times when
quitting is the best thing you can do. Your
survival in the markets could hinge on your
ability to give up when a trade isn’t working.

Although for many, quitting is hard.

I often see people doggedly holding onto


their losing trades. Some even double-down
in the belief their original view will
eventually be right. But in this setting,
refusing to quit can be a disaster.

I’ve seen many traders fail over the years due


to unwavering persistence. Their refusal to
take a relatively small loss early, has led to
some career ending losses. The best traders
avoid this fate by using a ‘stop-loss’. If you’re
not familiar with the term, a stop-loss is a
pre-set exit point. It’s where you accept that
a trade isn’t working and quit the position.

Of all the trading rules I can tell you, this is


one of the biggest. A stop-loss strategy is
your backstop when things go wrong.
Rule #4
Be slow to take profits

Ask yourself this, have you ever sold a stock


“There’s no doubt for a quick 20% gain? I know I have. An early
profit can be hard to turn down. For many,
about it, controlling the temptation to bank a modest gain is
overwhelming, they simply can’t say ‘no’.
the urge to sell is the
But resisting this urge could lead to a much
‘secret’ to big profits”. better outcome. You see, probability favours
that a strong stock will get stronger. The path
of least resistance for a rising stock is upwards,
and this could remain the case for a long time.
That’s why the best traders resist the urge for
a quick exit. They know the only way to make
big profits is by turning their backs on lots
of modest profits.

So when should you cash-out a winning trade?

Well, many of the best traders use what’s


called a ‘trailing stop’. The aim of this exit
strategy is to maximise profits from the
biggest trends.

A trailing stop can also help control the urge


to sell early. By having a calculated exit point,
you may be less likely to sell your most
promising trades on a whim. If you can do this,
then you’ll open the door to stocks that could
double, treble or more.
Rule #5
Give winners room to move

“It’s their ability to A problem I often see is people being too


protective of their profits. Yes, they want to
maximise profits let their winning trades run. But they don’t
want to give back any money.

The best traders know they need to let

There’s no reason you can’t do the same.
