    Question When do you sell your stock?

    A stock, you bought at Rs 100. Climbed to Rs 200 and then plunge back to may be Rs 80 in no time.
    What is the right time to sell the stock?

    And how do you get that right time?

    Everyone has a scheme of getting rich.. Which never works.

    Time to sell -
    * To invest in alternative asset classes like gold, commodities and real estate
    * To realign portfolios and continue with your existing debt-equity ratio
    * To increase higher returns from your existing investments
    * To keep investments safe when you are close to any financial goal

    You cannot time the market, so fix your target like - achieving target price or % of return etc.

    When everybody is buying it's time to sell and when everybody is selling it's time to buy.

    I tried many time to buy at low and sell at high time but not able to succeed. I am at the moment with MFs and use SIP for investments. We have to the work for which we have knowledge.

    Buy Blue-chip shares > Make realistic targets and time line for each share and as and when it will achieve, sell it or review it.
    And how do you get that right time?
    Realistic target > sell it or review it at that time.
