Making money in the stock market is becoming increasingly difficult; entry and exit on scrips has a significant impact on profitability. Markets are falling everywhere right now, so let's talk about how to deal with a falling market.

1. Don't Lose Your Cool: It's difficult to watch your profits dwindle, but if you're a long-term investor, don't lose your cool.Mostly people make wrong decisions in panic, so avoid panic situations.

2. Consolidate Positions: Keep an eye on underperforming scrips and try to switch on peers if possible. In fact , make it a habit to compare holding performance with peers.You should have full control on your investments and invested industry vision.

3. Save Money: Sit, eat, and sleep on cash; not everything must be invested; instead, wait for the right opportunity. Cash is the king, always keep some major portion of cash with you, this will enable you to grab opportunity at the right time.

4. Avoid venturing into unknown territory; sometimes people switch to currency/gold/bitcoin trading when the stock market is down. Avoid engaging in such activities, understand your risk tolerance, and act accordingly.

5. Study More: Take advantage of this time to learn more about your invested scrips and company performance. Essentially, understand your business (scrips) and invested segment. This strategy works well and increases investor confidence.

Last but not least, do your own research rather than relying on tips.

Happy Investing!
