Are you using the WRONG STOCK MARKET Strategy? | Ankur Warikoo Hindi

I break down the critical difference between two popular investment strategies: averaging down and pyramiding up. Many investors fall into the trap of averaging down, thinking they're lowering their cost basis and setting themselves up for bigger gains. But as I demonstrate using real-world examples and Excel calculations, this approach can actually increase your risk and limit your potential returns.

Instead, I introduce you to the concept of pyramiding up - a powerful technique used by successful investors to maximize profits while managing risk. I'll show you exactly how to implement this strategy, whether you're investing in stocks, mutual funds, or other assets. By the end of this video, you'll have a clear understanding of why pyramiding beats averaging, and how you can apply this knowledge to potentially boost your investment returns. Don't miss out on this game-changing information that could transform your financial future.

Thank you Ankur... I am a teacher, because of you not only me but also my students get enlightened in financial planning.. After seeing ur books in my collection, my adolescent son wondered, and asked wow dad u know him? 😍😍

Averaging may be bad for those who do not understand the fundamentals of a company. Buy fundamentally good stock and buy on dips and stay invested for long term - you are bound to make profit. I averaged on Tata Elxsi and Rs 650 average price of a stock became 9000 per stock in 3 yrs. Similar happened with M&M, ITC etc.

I watch your videos with great attention.
For the first time a video, producing confusion. Sometimes your proposition fits to Stock, sometimes fits to MF.
Example, 'stop loss'. How can it be applied to a portfolio of mutual funds in a falling market? It would have been very beneficial if you discussed it in detail.
Regards.

Agar market upar jaye toh kharidna kam karte jao aur agar market down ho toh jyada kharidte ki kharidna band humesha misguide hi karte ki ye log content ke liye kuch bhi video bana deta

[sujanrimal]

But the loss doesnot matter if you are in for long term so averaging always wins period .

OMG! ❤ I didn’t know this is called “Pyramiding” but this is precisely what I had been doing which is why, my portfolio is always ~50% higher than the regular indexes at all times. Thanks for explaining this so beautifully, Ankur ❤ Was not bragging but was excited to share because all my friends wondered how I am always sitting on profits even when I invest lesser than the previous buy

Great Video. I am using both strategy since 1 year(June 23) in a same large cap stock (high performing stock) 60% return so far and holding target is 15-20yrs. Warning:- Do not try in mid and small cap stocks as there is no guarantee company will survive or not.

3:45 there is some issue in your calculation of loss of 5% in 1st scenario.

The current NAV is 11.97 as you have taken for 2nd type.

your 5000 invested amount will be 11.97(current NAV)*250(total units) = 2992.5. and the total loss will be (5000-2992.5)/5000 * 100 = 200700/5000 = 40.15% which is greater than 23.76%.

hey ankur, great vdo... Although don't you think we cannot compare the above mentioned strategies of averaging and pyramiding because one is useful in bear markets and the other is useful in bull markets??? The very nature of both strategies are different. Averaging is the biggest weapon of a value investor and pyramiding is the goto choice of growth investors!! Let me know your Thoughts..

[ashishpandey]

You have reversed my mindset. I have taken a leaf from the Pyramiding up strategy .Thank you ❤

[ankits]

Seriously sir from last fews days I am trying to gain knowledge of averaging and here your video came on it. Thanks ❤

[Yadavlakshya]

Plz make video on what are the current options for investment after budget😅😅❤

[Disturbed]

I would use a Trailing Stop loss to make sure I make money on a risky investment. Bracket order works like a charm too

[brijeshnarayan]

Sir, your advise, gayaan, all grounded level and true. thank you

[NareshUgaonkar]

Nice unbiased full explanation which just makes sense.

[neiljohnmendonca]

I came to know that i was not aware of this pyramid strategy which i did on tata steel buying...well said ji

[ali_edittz]

This strategy will work on stocks but not work on index based ETFs and mutual funds👍🏻

[UfcKid]

Sir i feel you should have been one of the first people making a video on budget 2024. Tax. Old regime vs new. How to save. When to withdraw fund.

[planyourfinance]
