Every year, around this time, they are everywhere. The bars are full of them. Every workplace get-together is littered with them. Your liver would probably give up if you had a drink every time you saw them post on social media. Have you guessed who yet? The bandwagoner ── And those effects reach far beyond sports and its grandaddy politics. When it comes down to trading there are many more dangers than throwing away your vote on the most popular candidate. The bandwagon effect features many moving factors. These psychological, economic, and social aspects come into play and debunk the popular belief by leading to some craptastic trading decisions. And it all stems from following the popular choice. To beat the bandwagon effect you have to understand it. People like to win… Just try to change my mind. And who doesn’t want to win when playing the market? I know I do. But hitching a ride on the bandwagon in hopes of reaching the finish line might just be what’s holding you back. Because we live in the day in the age of tech there is an endless stream of data at our beck and call. When a stock is hot that’s all we hear and see when we tune into the news or scroll Reddit. …. Don’t get me twisted. There are times when these stocks are talked about for a damn good reason, and that reason is money. But more often than not it's all buzz and it needs to be your job to detect this hype. Let me give you an example that pops up with many IPOs. Loads of traders get excited. Making others want in on the sexy action everyone is talking about. The bandwagon effect has got them ready to dive in on the unknown on the very first day. The effect causes them to miss everything else. Many of these traders don’t know jack about the company. They heard the symbols on the tip of everyone’s tongue and jotted it down on their To-Do List too. Besides being ill-informed they also are missing another key bit of info. Day 1 isn’t always the best day to get in on an IPO…. Sometimes the best time isn’t even the first week it’s at play. …. But try and tell that to someone riding high on the bandwagon effect. Bet you’d have better luck converting your favorite meat lover to veganism. Ready to outsmart the bandwagon? My secret is tuning out all the chatter. [I make sure my trades are based on research.
