Hello folks


What do you think about buying shares? I think everyone knows that as soon as you have found a suitable share for your portfolio and bought it, the price falls.


The price of Roche is now below the 5-year chart. However, as I have never bought a share before, I wanted to ask whether it makes sense to buy additional shares if you believe in the company in the long term? The second purchase would also result in additional fees.

As a matter of principle, I never buy more in order to lower a buy-in. If I do, the buy-in goes up.

losers average losers.

With my red positions, I tend to ask myself "what did I do wrong to be in the red". Once all this has been clarified, the share is either sold or I am convinced of the stock

@Alpalaka but if you are still convinced, do you still not buy more to lower the buy in?

@Joris no. I also only buy from a certain + xx%.
If the share is in the red for me, I must have done something wrong when analyzing the entry point

What is wrong and why should I have sold Meta, for example?

@Burner and why? Why wouldn't it have been better to buy share XY 4 weeks later for €10 less?

@Burner Then it's something else.
I always get in once.
The other day, as an exception, I got in halfway through twice because I wasn't sure. Let's see how they develop

@Alpalaka Thank you for your opinion! That sounds very sensible.

@Alpalaka but if you are still convinced of a share and it is down 30%, for example. Is it a good idea to lower the equity or have you already gone out with an SL?
So at what point are you considering selling? That sounds well thought out and I would like to hear how you determine this for yourself.

If you believe in a company in the long term, it makes sense in my opinion. However, I would make sure that the company's share in the portfolio does not become too large after the purchase.
