Random thoughts

I have used to think timing the market for entry and exit can be accomplished.  IMHO this is not easily achieved; particularly for those retail investors who has a full time job.

Unless one is a seasoned investor and has a proven track record of timing a particular stock correctly all the time, l reckon that no one can consistently pick a stock's top or bottom.

The market timer in most of times would fret over when is the best time to get in or out of the market.

I reckon it is important to set an entry price and exit selling price. If l want to go long for a particular stock then l would probably set a budget (limit) for investing in it.  For exit selling price, l reckon one can use a certain reasonable returns % or an expected dividend amount.

For the Singapore market, how many have timed the entry buying price in Nov'11 and Dec'11 and exit selling price in mid-Mar'12 correctly?
