I am learning about stock market for last 4 months through books, courses, youtube video and seminars. Now i have started trading. I am starting with amount Rs. 1000 rupees to just learn how real experience is. So made a profit of Rs. +14, +7, +57 in last three days. Should i more focus on my intuition or on trading strategies? Also i am not able to hold my positions for long due to that i got some losses. How to overcome that?
