"If you had bought back then..." Collected in Tōyō Keizai ONLINE (column currently published)

Good morning, this is Matsushita.

Nikkei Stock Average, USD/JPY,

both are rising, aren't they?

Triggered by the U.S. presidential election,

it's a splendid rise that could be described as a surge.

Watching this rise,

many people must be regretting, “If only I had bought at that time.”

Because in about ten days, it will yield a decent profit.

Moreover, almost nonstop.

But you know, that regret almost serves no purpose, and

even if you happened to jump in after the U.S. presidential election and profits are expanding,

that profit also serves no purpose.

Because in the future, in order to be able to ride such rises continuously,

you need a clear reason = a trading rule.

A trading rule = a reason to trade,

and those who are riding this rise are strong.

Next time, too, you can ride this strong and fast ascent

because you can do the same.

However, if you do not have a trading rule and

you happen to jump in by chance,

or you regret not being able to ride it,

that will not mean anything for the future.

Money will not increase,

and will likely keep decreasing.

After creating a trading rule,

please become able to ride these strong and fast rises.

There are many people who are riding it.

There are graduates of Makoto Investment School

who are riding and making a profit, so

I will introduce them later.

ps

The first step to learning a trading rule is

the free online school.
