Investors should keep in mind that investing in a real estate property should not be considered as a gamble, though many consider it as such. Dishing out money for a home or a commercial property as investment in a large city -- like Melbourne, Australia; is a profitable venture -- only if you properly plan for it in advance to guarantee success in the long term. Here is a real estate investing guide that first-time property investors should...more

Are you ready to make some money in the stock market? If so, you may want to consider investing in a long short mutual fund rather than a traditional mutual fund. The reason why is because you will be better protected through the bull and bear markets not to mention you will likely have a better return on your investment over the long run. If you have heard about the benefits of a long short mutual fund then you may want to invest in one but are wondering how to get started. There are actually several options available to you. First, you may want to invest in a long short mutual fund that is already established and that doesn't require much effort on your side but rather on your investors' side. This is the best option for newcomers who like the strategy behind the long short mutual fund and for those who are interested in giving this type of investment a shot. The easiest way to get started is by talking with their investors about which long short mutual fund appears to be the "Up and coming" star and warrants investment in. Of course, you can always create your own long short mutual fund based on the market as whole or specific markets. You should only do this if...more

It seems every trader I talk to has a favorite trade set-up that he/she claims has never lost money. Common sense dictates that such a statement is pure nonsense. I always think to myself "surely the trade has lost money at least once." Or is it nonsense? The toughest concept for most novice, and many experience traders is one of simplicity; Every trade taken has a probability of success. Some trade set-ups are far more likely to turn a profit than others. In its simplest application, a trade would not normally decide to go long when the market is in a sharp decline, as that trade has a low probability of success. On the other hand, a trade with the trend or price action might well have a higher probability of success. But there is a problem with trading in the probabilistic sense, and that lies in the revelation that there are no 100% trades. But one could certainly make a great living if he/she found a trade that was, say, 70% successful. Of course, even a trade with a 70% probability has a component of failure to be dealt with, and coming to grips with a 30% failure rate is difficult to conceptualize.So what do you do with this information?Perhaps adding a momentum...more
