But how do these analysts and professional traders come up with these so-called levels? One of the most common methods is using pivot points, and here we take a look at how to calculate and interpret these technical tools.

Most of the time it is seen that if the derivative price goes up, then its share price also goes up. Wait for the target price to buy For example, if buy is given at 150.5 then don’t buy below this price, only buy at 150.5 price or slightly higher then price.Because the given buy price may be the resistance price, if it breaks then share price goes up or else may not go up above 50.5. So plan to buy at given targeted price, ...

The best thing that happens to us is when a great company gets into temporary trouble. We want to buy them when they’re on the operating table. (Mr. Buffett bought Coke when it had its biggest fiasco after launching New Coke; he bought American Express when it went through a loss making phase in the early 60’s) What do you look for in people when they come to sell their firms to you? I don’t look for the usual credentials such as an MBA, a pedigree (Harvard, Wharton), or cash reserves or market cap of their firm.
