  2. Stop Making Excuses
  3. Listen to everyone and do your own
  4. Reading Habit
  5. Learn from your own mistakes and never repeat them
  6. Stay Updated
  7. Patience

#1 They always prefer Investments over Trading

There are many investors and traders in the world, but have you seen any trader who has come in the list of #Top100 or #Top10 Richest people. No, because everyone who has excellent experience in trading will understand that trading cannot make you rich.

I am not saying that you should not do trading. Trading is beneficial in the short-term sometimes, but if you want to be rich or want to make a big name in the stock market, then I prefer you should avoid trading frequently.

For experience purposes, trading is the best thing to understand the Ups and Downs of the Stock Market but if you want to seriously involve in the stock market, then you should avoid trading and always prefer investing over trading in your career

This habit of the expert investors will surely help you grow in the long-term.


#2 They Never Make Excuses


Many people give excuses for their background, like they are from a poor family and they cannot start investing. Some say they are poor and don't have enough money for investing.

Some give excuses like investing requires an extensive amount of money and they do not have money to invest. Some mention that investing is very risky and we cannot take risks for earning money.

And the funniest one they say only educated people can do investing.

So for everybody who thinks about the Stock Market like this I want to say that firstly, you are not forced to invest big amount you can also start investing for as low as 10Rs., also you don't need to be highly educated. The World's Richest Investor Warren Buffett says that "Anyone can start Investing if he/she knows only Basic Mathematics."

I know that everybody reading this blog knows Basic Mathematics and if you want to start investing then Excuses will never help you. So the second habit of expert investors you should follow strictly is to stop making excuses.


#3 Be a good Listener, but never act by seeing others


If you have invested or even started learning about Investing, and the Stock Market then you will notice there are many people giving advice about which stocks to buy or which commodities to buy or at what price to buy.

Some people listen to this advice and get caught in their traps because if you see there are only a few people who genuinely want to serve their audience and the remaining are always been controlled by big firms who manipulate the stock prices. So the people who do research and show it to you and never recommend you to buy any stock and just do the analysis of any stock, listen to only that.

Before making any financial decision you should consult your advisor and after taking everybody's decision you should do your own analysis about yourself and any stock if you want to buy and then only take actions.

Never invest in a company if any big investor is investing in that company. Most of the time this news like a big investor has bought shares in a particular company are fake and spread by some fraud organizations. So always do your own analysis before investing.


#4 You should regularly read books and Newspapers


Many people have overconfidence after making a successful trade or investment and they stop their research and think that they will be always right.

But if you want to be successful and want to make a big name in this industry, then you should follow the daily reading habit.

One of the greatest investors and the Owner of D-Mart, Mr. Radhakrishna Damani who has no need of reading any book or any newspaper also reads daily more than 13 newspapers which is fabulous, now you can think that most successful people also follow the simplest of habits which we never notice.


#5 Accept your mistakes and always learn from them


Mistakes to avoid
Mistake


The World's greatest investor Warren Buffett also recently after the Covid-19 crash sold their every share from the airline industry and also apologized about their investment mistake in front of the entire world.

If you never accept your mistakes you will never learn from them, so accepting your mistakes, learning from them, and never repeating them is the 5th key to success, and this thing is always done by many big investors. 

There are many investors who get their decisions wrong but the difference between them and small investors is small investors never accept their mistakes and never act on them and this leads to their big losses.

This is the habit that you will never regret having even you are in any different industry.


#6 Always stay Updated


One of the key tips and habits of expert investors is they are always updated, and this is the most important thing if you are a trader or an investor.

In the Stock Market if one day also you are not updated you can face a huge loss because the value of stocks is changing every second and if you miss any news, then you can lose many big profits and can also face many big losses.

There the habit of being updated is a must in the Stock Market Industry.


#7 Have Patience 

Waiting
Waiting

Money requires time to mature and anything which can give you instant money is fraud or either temporary, therefore giving time to your investments is as important as picking or analyzing any stock.

For example, The Bull of Indian Stock Market Rakesh Jhunjhunwala had purchased a stock named Titan in 2001 at a price of 3 Rs. and they had so much trust in that stock that they are holding that stock even after 19 years and now the value of the stock is 900 Rs. and the 52-week high of the stock was 1300 Rs.

After this example, you will never ask why you should apply the habit of having patience.

Even you have made a profit in any stock then also if you believe in the business model of that company then instead of booking your profit you should have patience and wait for the right price to come.

Rakesh Jhunjhunwala also said that the Stock Market is a way of transferring money from the impatient to the patient.
