"Perilaku herding atau ikut-ikutan ini wajar sebenarnya dan manusiawi. Investor yang pernah beli saham, lalu untung dan selanjutnya excited untuk beli lagi di atas. Tetapi, harganya malah turun dan akhirnya rugi. Tindakan ini perlu untuk dikelola," tutur Melvin.
Ketiga adalah emotional gap, investor yang membeli saham tertentu dan mendapatkan keuntungan besar, namun dinilai pembeliannya terlalu sedikit. Kemudian mengekor saran pihak lain untuk kembali membeli, padahal harga sudah di pucuk.
"Jadi di sini saking happy-nya, keinginan selanjutnya adalah kembali membeli atas saran orang lain, dan akhirnya harga down".
Untuk tindakan irasional yang keempat, Melvin mencontohkan terkait pergerakan salah satu saham blue chip yang pada awal tahun di level 3.900 dan menjualnya pada level 4.500 atau untuk Rp600 per saham.
Then the next stock movement slumped again to the level of 4,000, which in nominal terms this share price was slightly different from the price at the beginning of the year.

This condition is an irrational action called anchoring, by referring to the 3,900 level as a cheap price. However, many investors are responding to this situation without considering the issuer's financial performance and operational performance.
The last irrational act, explained Melvin, is self-attribution which is generally done by investors by referring to suggestions from analyzes on social media.
On the other hand, this suggestion is also in line with investor confidence that is too high and without competence in the investment sector.
