Discipline matters a lot for a trader to win, apart from some contrarian plays. You may think about some nice habits, I collected from books and here and there, However, our experience is our best teacher, if we avoid doing mistakes repeatedly. Go with the market and be with the market.

   Rules :

1. Instead of looking into the news, study the chart carefully. Before the news affects the price, the chart tells the news is coming.

2. Buy at the first pullback from a new high. Sell at the first pullback from a new low. There's always a crowd that missed the first train.

3. Buy at a support, sell at a resistance. Panic time is when the mass get into action.

4. Short rallies not selloffs. When markets drop, shorts finally turn a profit and get ready to cover.

5. Don't buy up into a major moving average or sell down into one.

6. Don't chase momentum if you can't find the exit. Assume the market will reverse the minute you get in. If it's a long way to the door, you're in big trouble. Patience is the key factor here.

7. Trade in the direction of gap support whenever you can. Take risk in favor of directions.

8. Trends test the point of last support or resistance. Be confident to enter here.

9. Trade with the TICK .  Go where the money flows.

10. If you have to look, it isn't there. Apply commonsense and trust your instincts.

11. Sell the second high, buy the second low. After sharp pullbacks, the first test of any high or low always runs into resistance. Look for the break on the third or fourth try.

12. The trend is your friend in the last hour. As volume cranks up few minutes before close, don't expect a miracle  to change the channel.

13. Avoid the open. Start trade after one hour and end trade before one hour of a session, try to be in-between.

14. Look for downtrends to reverse after a top, two lower highs and a double bottom.

15. Bulls live above the 200 day, bears live below. Sellers eat up rallies below this key moving average line and buyers to come to the rescue above it.

16. Price has memory. What did price do the last time it hit a certain level ? Chances are it will do it again.

17. Big volume kills moves. Climax blow-offs take both buyers and sellers out of the market and lead to sideways action.

18. Trends never turn on a dime. Reversals build slowly. The first sharp dip always finds buyers and the first sharp rise always finds sellers.

19. Bottoms take longer to form than tops. Greed acts more quickly than fear and causes stocks to drop from their own weight.

20. Beat the crowd in and out the door. You have to take their money before they take yours.

Are you ready to learn from your previous mistakes to sustain during the market slow down? Every single investor has been hurt in the world financial crisis since 1990 till now. There is a little or no optimistic idea remains for investments during current economic slowdown. Though this is a fact so hard to digest, the way of our thinking and the modification of new tricks have been evolved every time. Smart people do their home work to survive the recession.

The Global Economic Slowdown has a direct impact on the emerging economy like India.

The decades of coalition administration leave no room for major policy restructure. The Indian Rupee is falling continuously. The fiscal deficit is growing towards an unmanageable point. Now it is a question of survival. We have to learn from our old mistakes and reorient our financial techniques now.  

The following few points come to my mind automatically when I think about it.

1.Stick to life insurance and medical insurance.

2.Invest some amount in less risky FD and debt funds.

3.Create an emergency fund that is at least 3 times of your monthly income.

4.It is advised for the retail investors to know the difference between equity and debt funding and stay away from equity. Because even the most celebrated and trusted stock market analyst report becomes wrong at the prevailing market situation.

5.Don’t make any major capital investment taking loans. At best keep your EMI up to 20% of your monthly income.

6.Invest in physical Gold or FD’s and funds related to Gold.

7.Refrain from unnecessary expenditures like buying vegetables from air-conditioned supermarkets. Minimize expenses and get some surpluses at the month end.

8.Try to utilize every hour of your free time effectively and add as much as to your income.

Conclusion : We have to correct our wrongs in a more disciplined and organized manner. All we can say this is not the end of the World and there will be a comeback of all the past glory or even more when we work systematically.
