4 Factors that influence active traders the most when making trading decisions and strategy formulation.

In our daily lives, our decisions are formulated under a state of uncertainty in different settings. For example, deciding what to buy, when to say YES or NO, and when to let go.

For active traders, they are constantly making decisions on choices about; what to trade, how to trade and when to trade.

The most challenging part for active traders is how to make good choices within a limited timeframe.

Identifying what stock to buy and at what price to enter a trade needs some catalysts that influence the decisions you go by.

In a recent study by Benzinga data team, the team gave their active traders a chance to reveal  the most things that influence their 2020 trading decisions.
