Timing the market or time in the market? Which is more important? This topic is similar to the one which I discussed earlier:
If you are the "buy and hold" type of investor, you would spend time in the market and wait for prices to recover. But is it better than timing the market?
If you know technical analysis, you can time the market to make profits during the swings. In the examples that I showed, you can see prices may take a long time or may not eve...

Timing the market or time in the market, which is more important in your opinion?
Some gurus use chart or trend to justify that they can time the market accurately (buy low sell high). They will show you portfolio that hugh profit is earned. What they didn't show you is they made bigger losses in other hidden trades.
You can't get rich by timing the market which usually will end up sell low and buy high.
Bottom line
As retail investors, the probability of

Timing the market usually refers to shorter investment periods, whereas staying invested for the long term is referred to as time in the market. It's not about timing the market, but about staying invested in a well-diversified portfolio over time, as those who stay invested in a well-diversified portfolio outperform those who try to profit from market turning points. Nobody can predict a stock's future price, market timing is ineffective, and time in the market is the b...

Lol, how I wish I could time the market, then I would be able to retire and make daily trades with profits each time. There is a belief that time in market in the mid/long term will have a higher probability of gaining reasonable profit to beat inflation. Congratulate those that has the knowledge and skill to be able to time the market to make profitable trades.
Hoping all to huat whichever what the believe in.

Each one is valuable. Each one has a place. To time the market, you got to be a real shark. Time in the market doesn't make you n check the platform as much. Due diligence is the best though, in all scenarios. Knowing what you hold in both situations is key.
