Chapter 3, a small test of the edge
Chapter 3, a small test of the edge
Zuo Yuliang has naturally paid attention to the bits and pieces of stocks since he worshipped his master and apprentice. Especially about the basic tutorials of stock trading, he went to Xinhua Bookstore and bought two basic textbooks about stock K-line and stock trading.
One book is about the basic patterns of candlesticks, and the other is about the basic skills of trading.
With the direction of progress, Zuo Yuliang spent all his spare time on the two books he bought, and it can be said that he quickly read the two books in the shortest possible time with the spirit of forgetting to sleep and eat.
However, reading is a chore. Zuo Yuliang spent a lot of effort just to memorize and understand the shapes and meanings of various K-lines, and sometimes, in order to figure out what the book was about, he often read and memorized it repeatedly, until he was able to familiarize himself with it, and then he continued to learn new content.
As the saying goes: where you put in the effort, you will reap the rewards. Through Zuo Yuliang's unremitting efforts, Zuo Yuliang basically knew the meaning of the various K-lines and the main combination patterns that originated from a grain merchant in Japan to record the rise and fall of rice prices. Regarding the patterns of K-lines, Zuo Yuliang mainly memorized nearly 70 kinds of candlesticks, such as: Yang candles are divided into small candlesticks, medium candlesticks and large candlesticks, which represent bullish forces of different strengths. There are two types of black candlesticks, medium black candlesticks, and long black candlesticks, which in turn represent bearish forces of varying strength. In addition, there are no less than seventy or eighty basic K-line patterns such as doji, hanging neckline, cut line, covering line, gap, black three soldiers, red three soldiers, rising three methods, falling three methods, etc.
Not to fight unprepared battles, this is a basic belief of Zuo Yuliang. Because Mr. Shang once said to Zuo Yuliang that the stock market is not a place to make money, and if you are not careful, you will lose money. That's why Zuo Yuliang spent so much effort to learn some basic knowledge about the stock market.
Just when Zuo Yuliang was immersed in the vast sea of learning, and the teacher Shang Shifu in the same office, his research content was to buy the "Yangtze Evening News" on time every day. The newspaper shows the opening and closing of the prices of all traded stocks on the previous day. And what Master Shang and apprentice are most concerned about is the rise and fall of several stocks he buys every day. Due to the constraints of the conditions at that time, there was no computer stock speculation, and if you want to buy and sell stocks, you can only see the general situation through newspapers and BB machines. Therefore, the information provided by the newspaper and the BB machine became the source of information for the decision-making of the teacher.
Seeing that Mr. Shang never looked at the K-line when buying stocks, but just started to entrust the trading of stocks by virtue of the recommendation made in the newspaper, Zuo Yuliang was very strange.
"Mr. Shang, you recommend that I read more about the content of the book about stock trading, but I don't think you have ever read a book with related content!
"It's a bit unrealistic for me to read anymore at my age, my eyes are old, and it's hard to read books! Besides, in my experience, the K-line mentioned in the book is only a reference, and sometimes it may not be accurate. Teacher Shang replied to Zuo Yuliang.
"Teacher Shang, I'll help you draw the K-line pattern of the stocks you bought every day! I promise to satisfy you, so that we can learn from each other!" Zuo Yuliang recommended himself to Master Shang's apprentice.
"You have such ability, you really haven't seen you for three days, you should be impressed!" said Master Shang in surprise.
"It's not difficult, as long as you know the opening, low, high, and closing price of the stock, you can draw its K-line pattern of the day. Whether it is a negative or a positive candle, just compare it with the previous day's closing price. Do you want us to try it today?" Zuo Yuliang said with a smile to the monk and apprentice.
"This relationship is good, it seems that you young man is really working hard. Master Shang also smiled and said to Zuo Yuliang.
"Teacher Shang, I'll draw you the K-line pattern of the stock you bought in the newspaper yesterday, how about you take a look?" Zuo Yuliang said to Master Shang.
"Wait a minute, I'll find out all the newspapers from the past few days, and you can simply draw the K-lines of its stock in the past few days! While speaking, Master and Apprentice Shang took out all the newspapers from the previous days and put them in front of Zuo Yuliang.
"Teacher Nashang, you cooperate, report me the four prices of your stocks every day, and I will draw their K-line patterns for you. While speaking, Zuo Yuliang found a blank piece of paper and began to draw the K-line combination of stocks for Master Shang and his apprentice.
"I use a red pen to represent the yang line, and a black pen to represent the yin line!" Zuo Yuliang said as he draw.
After Zuo Yuliang drew all the K-line patterns of the previous days, a group of Doji lines at the bottom of the day plus a group of red soldiers jumped on the paper.
"Teacher Shang, look, the K-line pattern of the stock you bought has been drawn, would you like to show it?" Zuo Yuliang said, handing the paper in his hand to Master Shang's apprentice.
Master Shang took the drawings given to him by Zuo Yuliang and said with a smile: "I can't imagine that Xiao Zuo is really a caring person! I have been buying stocks for so many years, and I have never thought of drawing K-line charts by hand." You're the first person here with that ability to buy and sell stocks. ”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shang, I'm just getting started, and I've just read "Seventy-two Styles of Sakata Warfare", and I want to give it a try. Let's just treat it as an amateur!" Zuo Yuliang said with a smile.
"Actually, the stock I bought was also rumored to be a bull stock, and it will rise in the future, and it is slightly profitable now. But looking at this K-line, it seems to be pretty good, right?" said Master Shang and his apprentice suspiciously looking at the picture drawn by Zuo Yuliang.
"From the meaning of this combination line, there should be an increase. Congratulations to Mr. Shang. ”
"Really, you think it's going to go up too?" Master Shang was a little overjoyed.
"There is a high probability that it will rise, because its K-first pattern combination is better. It is a combination pattern of bullish rises. Zuo Yuliang said with confidence.
"Then Xiao Zuo, you can just buy some, just make a phone call and entrust it, and you can buy it!" Master Shang said to Zuo Yuliang.
"It's a pity I don't have a phone!" Zuo Yuliang said regretfully.
"Using my phone, follow the voice prompts. Master Shang took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the exchange.
Zuo Yuliang took the mobile phone of Master and Apprentice Shang, and his heart couldn't help but jump. He carefully followed the prompts on the phone and completed his first stock trade, step by step.
"I bought 500 shares, I was so nervous, it was the first time I spent such a large sum of money. After Zuo Yuliang finished the operation, he said with a little humility to the monk and apprentice teacher.
"I won't be nervous after a few more operations, and I was like this at the beginning, sweating in my nervous hands. Master Shang said with concern.
"Xiao Zuo, how do you judge that it will rise in the future?" asked Master Shang.
"I also make my judgment from what the book says. Zuo Yuliang said.
"I've been buying it for a long time, and I'm a little bit profitable now, and I've been entangled in my heart! ”
"The first few days are all doji K-line patterns, indicating that the bullish and bearish forces have basically maintained a balance in the past few days, and the killing and rising are evenly matched. But next is a red three soldiers pattern, indicating that the bulls are beginning to prevail, and there is a high probability that there will be a wave of rise. It's all in the book, and I'm reading it from the book. Let's try it today, right?" Zuo Yuliang said the meaning of the K-line combination in his heart.
"It makes sense, I still have to read and study, I'm not as good as Xiao Zuo in this regard! Although I suggested that you read a book at that dinner, I actually didn't read a few books about stocks, and I bought stocks based on my intuition and the advice of other colleagues. Master Shang said to Zuo Yuliang with a little regret.
"I'm sorry, the class has an axe, whether it can rise or not depends on how the market evolves. Zuo Yuliang also said modestly.
"I was equipped with a BB machine a few days ago, you can watch the stock market at any time, Xiaozuo, do you want to buy one? It's not expensive, 380 yuan a piece. Master Shang spoke, and took out his unique stock speculation weapon from his waist.
"It's so expensive! I don't have enough money to buy one a month, I can't afford it!" Zuo Yuliang said.
"When the stock rises, you can buy one when you make money, it's good, it's important to get information in time to buy stocks! Otherwise, how can we make money? I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf?" said Master Shang and his apprentice further enlightened Zuo Yuliang.
"Whether you make money or not, you will know tomorrow, if you can make money, you must buy one. Zuo Yuliang said with a smile to the monk and apprentice.
"Must-match, must-match, you can pay attention to your stock price changes in time every day. Master Shang said his opinion.
"Then, Mr. Shang, let's see if the price of the stock we bought has risen today!" Zuo Yuliang said to Master Shang.
"Xiao Zuo, you are lucky, the stock you bought just now has risen by two cents, almost five points, and we can sell it at the opening tomorrow. Master Shang said as he looked at the stock price displayed in the BB machine.
"Xiao Zuo, let me tell you another news, the insider who gave me the news said that this stock is said to be able to rise to ten fast money, and he wants me to hold it well. Master Shang pretended to be mysterious and said to Zuo Yuliang.
"If that's the case, I'll follow Mr. Dingshang in the future, what stocks you buy, you might as well follow me what stocks I buy. Zuo Yuliang said with a smile.
"That must be the one who made money and asked me to drink more. Master Shang said jokingly to Zuo Yuliang.
"Then definitely, if you can make money, you must ask Master Shang to drink wine and eat meat. Zuo Yuliang also said with a smile.
This is Zuo Yuliang's first stock speculation since his debut, he actually touched a dead mouse with a blind cat, and made money the first time he bought stocks, which made him feel that it seemed easy to make money by speculating in stocks.
Perhaps, this is the true meaning of "reading must be intentional, a word is worth a thousand gold"!
