Stock Trading Plan
Planning Your Stock Trades
and the Power of Allocation
Congratulations, you've opened an online trading account!
What's your next step? The answer is simple: Define your trading strategy and make sure that allocation is working in your favor.
In the Wealthy Investor program I teach my students how to sell in and out of the money covered calls to generate monthly or weekly income in the stock market. The next thing I teach them is to make sure they understand the power of allocation.
What is allocation?
Simply stated, allocation refers to what funds you are going to actively designate for trading in the stock market, and what funds you are going to designate for investing in the stock market.
Believe it or not, the right allocation can grow the value of your online trading account exponentially. In other words, if you knew you were going to invest this months trading profits into stocks that increase their dividends and have a tendency to rise substantially over a 5-year period, you would be stacking the deck in your favor and putting allocation to work for you.
There are 3 reasons why most retail traders experience marginal success in the stock market:
They don’t have a plan for their trading profits.
They don’t have an eye for allocation.
They don’t trade and invest in upward trending stocks.
