Top Tweets Today: 03/09/2015

After initially  finding it's footing at IPO, Twitter has slowly faded away off the watchlist and almost into the dustbin. The troubled social media company seems to be battling to prove itself on Wall Street as it's competition namely Facebook steals the show. Earlier this year there CEO Dick Costolo announced his resignation and left the company with a difficult task of replacing him. With management woes continuing investors will keep plunging the price into further lows.

Given the influx of volatility lately it's not uncommon to find investors taking on the role of traders. Since the moves that happens occurs at such blinding pace investors start fancying themselves as traders which can't end too well. The same goes for traders, they let emotions slip in pick the wrong entry and instead of admitting they are wrong decide to leave the trade open and the trade eventually becomes an investment. Whatever you do, remember you plan and don't stray from it.

When emotions are allowed into your trading it produces other feelings. Emotions, if left unattended have the potential to destroy your trading capital and this tweet totally sums that up.  It is important to remember this especially in volatile times, try keep a calm composure and plan what it is you going to do.


Some light Thursday humour for a change after the week is almost over. I know I'm guilty of sitting down in front of my screen and becoming captivated by the movements only to realise it's 5 hours later.  One piece if advice to take from this; get some sunshine and a stretch more regularly.
