Contrarian

Always be a contrarian.  A value investor who doesn't move with the crowd.

This is harder than it seems.  Even large institutional investors don't look for value opportunities, but rather move where everyone else is moving.

This is going to require you to do your homework.  To deeply understand your company, your industry, and macro trends.  Otherwise you will be subject to the same rises and falls of the market that others experience, and you will not see the returns that value investors achieve.
