A lot of people including me, did not know what is the difference between an investor and a trader. I did not even know the existance of these two terms.. Until.......
My first email to Ben from http://bliswise.blogspot.com/ . And that was the first time I heard of these two terms...
So, what is an investor and what is a trader? An investor is someone who looks for fundamentally strong companies to invest in... But a trader, invest when the graphs and technical analysis tells them that the price of the particular stock will be going up... In other words, fundamental analysis looks into the intrinsic value of the company or how much the company is worth to invest in, hence - Investor. A trader however, looks at the company like a 'product'. Whether they can buy the stocks now and sell it with a higher price later... Which is like measuring the demand for the stock. Confusing? It's ok, there will be some postings in the future that will discuss more on fundamental and technical analysis.
Why is it important to know which one are you? Why is it so important to set the mentality right? It's because both have a very different game plan. How is it different? That will also be posted on future blogs... Hehe... Like that then can keep people coming ma... Hehe.... Anyway, this is just an introduction to the concept of investor vs trader. Something like a point to ponder and look into... Hehe....
