Why Do Stocks Fall After I Buy Them? — The Truth Behind This Stock Market Myth!

Nowadays, almost everyone wants to earn money through trading — and many are doing so. But trading without learning can be one of the biggest mistakes of your life.

And even if you’ve learned the basics, there’s still a fun and very common question! 😊

Most new and experienced investors feel like this:

“As soon as I buy a stock, it starts falling. And as soon as I sell it, it rises!”

So, do you know 👉 the real reasons behind this "Stock Market Paradox"?

Psychological Effect

When we buy a stock for ourselves, we become emotionally attached to it. Even a small decline feels much bigger.

Our brain notices losses faster than gains — this is human nature.

Wrong Timing – Buying/Selling Without Research

Many times, people follow the crowd (for example, buying stocks recommended on Telegram/YouTube).

When the stock has already gone up, that’s when we jump in — someone tells us:
"X stock has given ...% return in the last 3 months" — and that’s exactly when the decline starts.
The stock had already reached its upward limit.

Worst part? Out of fear, we sell too quickly and then watch it climb again… and think “I should have held a little longer.”

Timing the market is difficult — but having patience is easy.

Short-Term Volatility

The stock market fluctuates daily due to multiple reasons:

  • Global events
  • Company/Sector earnings
  • Media news
  • FIIs (Foreign Institutional Investors) buying/selling

If you don’t have a long-term view, these minor fluctuations will always disturb you.

Confirmation Bias — We See What We Believe

When you think “Whenever I buy, it falls”, your mind keeps noticing only those instances.
You forget the stocks you bought and which went up.

Logic vs Emotion

The biggest mistake in the stock market is making decisions based on emotions:

  • Selling in fear
  • Buying in greed
  • Chasing trends blindly

👉 All of this creates the same feeling:
"As soon as I buy — it falls. As soon as I sell — it rises!"

How to Avoid This Situation?
