Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the premise of progress, in every society, in every family... Kofi Annan Knowledge and action is really what differentiate you from other people. Just as food is good, energise, grow and keep the body healthy so also is knowledge for your mind. Furthermore, knowledge is what keeps our mind in good shape, it helps remove prejudice, bias and lower risk when taking decision inclusive of investment decisions which is why they always say that it is what we don't know that affects us. Similarly in stock, it is knowledge that helps you understand the current trends, models and systems that will help you get the best ROI and reduce the risk.

Recently, my cousin came for a seminar at Opebi and afterwards, he decided to pay me a visit although he told 2 weeks earlier. In the course of our conversation, he complained bitterly about an idea he has been trying to communicate to his Boss on different occasions but it always ends in futility. So, I told him to try different approach and be optimistic about it. An optimist will stop doing the same thing because  1. He knows boss is a human, so he can be reached and inspired regarding the idea.  2. Try as many method as possible to make him accept his idea. This is no different from the stock market either in bull or bear market. If your strategy is not working, you have to be an optimist who will stop doing the same thing because you know people are still making good returns in a bear market. Then like the advice to my cousin, try as many method as possible until you find the most effective one and this can be done through further know...

Do you know what a GTC order is? GTC simply means Good Till Cancelled. A good till cancel order is an order placed by an investor/ trader to buy or sell  a stock at a specified price,of which the price remains active until it is either canceled by the investor/ trader or the trade is executed. It offers an alternative to placing a sequence of day orders which expires at the end of each trading day. GTC orders are commonly set to expire within a week to a month after trade are entered on the floor of Nigeria Stock Exchange. Simply put, GTC orders provide investors/traders the convenience of placing orders at specified price points,which can also be referred to as limit orders,that remains in force until they reach an expiration date, either they are executed or are canceled. These orders can be entered to buy or sell stock, or as stop orders. Investdata  Academy

Nigeria's equity market started the week on a scary note on Monday with the composite All-Share index plunged from the opening of the day's trading session in continuation of last week's correction wave to record the highest loss position in the last six trading days of down market. It had a 6-wave decline, and by midday rallied off on the strength of Dangote Cement's gain to reduce losses, after touching intraday highs of 43,198.00 from lows of 42,080.55, which it rolled over, closing the day at 42,737.89. Trading for the day reflected market players’ fear and panic selling which was as a result of extended negative sentiments of corrections.   With this in mind, as we said on Friday, the psychology always changes when stocks go down. At this point many search for stories to fit the price, trying to raise up a negative scenario unfolding for the market. Having been involved in the market for more than 15 years, I have seen, within short and long term cy...

Market Update for February 8 It was yet another bearish Thursday on the floor of the Nigerian Stock Exchange as the indicators plunged from the very beginning. First, it extended the corrective wave for the fourth consecutive days of decline, and by midday the composite index rallied to intraday highs of 43,616.14 which was the day’s resistance from its low 43,261.66 point to reflect high volatility as the ongoing shakeout or correction momentum continues to subside, indicating that reversal is imminent, despite the mixed technicals at the end of the Thursday’s trading session as revealed by the huge volume traded and declining negative market breadth. The economic recovery and transformation that had supported the inflow of funds into the economy and stock market are still intact as international investment banks continue to grow their presence in emerging markets, with Africa and Middle East remaining their focus. This is especially as bond sales, M&As and trading activit...

Market Update for February 7 At the end of midweek’s trading session, Nigeria’s stock market had a volatile, but mixed session to close south in continuation of its three consecutive days of correction, a signal that reversal is imminent, after the benchmark index gapped in the upside at the early trading hours to intraday highs of 43,921.17 and lows of 43,534.71 points. The market’s mid-morning rally resulted from bargain hunters trying to take advantage of low prices to position. Price depreciation recorded by Dangote Cement and Nigerian Breweries, the NSE’s two biggest stocks by market capitalization by the afternoon session finally pushed the market downward on low volume and negative breadth. With the ongoing market shakeout gradually coming to end ahead of the earnings reporting season, investors should focus on companies with juicy profit margins and strong balance sheets that will rebound powerfully after their dislocation from this correction wave. The sell down has ...

Market Update for February 5 Nigeria’s stock market on Monday had another volatile trading session to kick start the first full week of February negative. The session started out with a little gap down at the opening, and pulled back to recent key support, forming a hanging man candlestick pattern that signaled reversal but on a low volume after the previous day’s up market, on a declining volume to indicate a weak rally. As things are now, Investdata urges everyone- investors and traders to keenly observe Tuesday’s session to confirm direction before going short, especially against the backdrop of the correction mode of international stock markets that was long expected due to over valuation and weak earnings. This, we recall, had made many international fund managers increase their positions in emerging and frontier markets like Nigeria’s. U.S. stocks took a deep plunge, the most in 6 1/2 years, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average shedding over 1,100 points, amidst feve...
