The main reason is that people always think that when stocks fall, they must go back up eventually, no matter what the circumstances.
And this is most dangerous, since the person will then buy even more stock to gain time to recover losses.
But unfortunately no one can really tell when stocks that have fallen from the highs will regain their former 'glory'.
It is usually the act of averaging down that makes for devastating losses.

ipunter expert, is it (really) true that people lost their mind & lives to the stock market? why like this...

There's no such thing as 'becomes unfeeling'...
In loss, people are extremely full of feeling, even more feeling...
And this is the reason why numerous people committed in the past...

when the price has reached your cut loss point.. then you ponder and decide to stretch the tolerance further..
until a point where you totally bored with it and it becomes unfeeling.. |

MrKenny...
You should just do it yourself instead of
telling others to hold.and average down...

when is GAR releasing their result?
MrKenny ( Date: 22-Feb-2011 21:44) Posted:
for those owning this stock now, please do not panic sell. It will only cause you to incur more losses if you do that. I suggest for those who own it continue to hold. It will rise back eventually. A piece of advise, to make up your losses, you may want to enter into the market again while it is low  |

Mkt news - good or bad will always be there, those holding with deep pocket is ok on GAR. Oni for short term. This week is rather all on bad news unfolding...thing to watch this week--oil px and China tightening policies.

* East Asian markets facing inflation worries are taking a beating following the sharp overnight oil price spikes as a new ball game for equities investment emerges.
* Would investors in Asia, anxiously is watching crisis unfolding in Libya, tilting away from risky assets and turning to safe havens like gold and U.S.$

I know what you mean...
I believe you are not intentionally doing it.
Much as I relish reading about
Nicolas Darvas' betting methods,
I do not average up or down (seldom)...
Why make things complicated things for oneself?...

Averaging is a no-no... It represents underlying anger.
It means one is " mm kam guan" (not satisfied) with the stock market,
and wants to take it back on the market...
