I recommend learning technical analysis. Even beginning stock market traders can learn simple technical analysis to help them make the right decision.

I also started with Etrade and also tried Tradeking. Both are nice but Tradeking has this benefit that once your IRA account reaches 25k, you can make it into a margin IRA account. In my case it was a bit more stressful because I started by investing the little savings which I had and started living on credit until I started making money from my stocks.

Thanks for sharing your experience. If it wasn’t for internet share trading I’m sure a lot of us would have found it difficult to get started trading.

The above is very good example of growing your wealth by investing in stocks. I always trust stock investment more than keeping your money in fixed deposits or in saving a/c. But i will suggest the beginners to start with mutual fund and then enter in stock market after doing their own research.

Interesting story. I purchased my first stock after reading an article on Breast Cancer Investing, which informed me about a company called Mentor Capital that has a 20% claim in a privately held biotech company called Quantum Immunologics (QI) who has FDA approved clinical on the way for a new breast cancer treatment that exposes proteins found only on cancer infected cells. By exposing these proteins, they can direct the immune system to directly attack only infected cells making this treatment safer and less tormenting than other forms of treatment. Because Mentor Capital is the primary funding source of (QI), an investment in the stock of Mentor Capital is supporting the breast cancer research of QI. Recognizing the potential of this innovative new treatment, I decided Mentor Capital stock would be a smart investment.

I heard stories about ETrade. A great place to start when dealing with stocks.

What do you look at to decide where you should buy that stock? Warren Buffet said you should buy stocks when other are fearful. What do you think about this statement? Why? Is it counter intuitive?
thanks

First of all, I want to convey my regards to that reader who requested you to write about your stock trading. I greatly enjoyed looking through your post and found it very informative. Actually I was totally unaware of the stock or online stock trading. And now I am very eager to invest in stocks. But to make profit in this sector, I need a good broker’s help. Could you please suggest the name of few good stock brokers?

That’s a great story. What would be the best stocks to get into due to the fall of the economy?

It is always interesting to know how someone starts his first stock. Investing in the right stock can bring much profit. I am going to get my own stock but I am a little bit frustrated on how to start having not a big amount with me.
