Stock Market Trading and Investing Basics
Once you have started your Stock Market Investing Education, one of the first questions you will need to answer is how you are going to trade tha Market. Making this decision is going to tell you what your next level of education will be about. Are you going to scalp the Market, day trade the Market, swing trade the Market, or buy and hold Stocks for the long run?
Scalping
Stock scalping involves buying large quantities of shares in a stock, when you are just looking for a small move in the stock price.
Day Trading
Day trading is similar to scalping but you are looking for bigger moves in the price and you do not hold the stock overnight.
Swing trading
Swing trading is when you buy a stock and hold it for a short period of time looking for a substantial move in the price.
Buy and hold
Buy and hold is when you plan on holding on to the stock for a long time. You believe the company is going to grow in value and the price is going to go much higher.
A Stock Market Investment Strategy
I feel that an investment strategy in the stock market can instill in the individual investor not only an assured confidence in all future stock market investments, but also an almost Zen-like sense of peace and well being. A stock market investment strategy spelled out and proven will instill in the investor the power to succeed in the stock market with an assured confidence.
The investment strategy I’m talking about would take away the anxiety of indecision, since you would have for yourself – spelled out in advance – knowledge of when and where to take advantage of each stock market investment opportunity.
Since there is no room in a stock market investment strategy for indecision the investment strategy would spell out exactly what you’re after, in advance. It would tell you how and when and where to take advantage of each stock market investment opportunity, in advance.It would instill in the investor the self-confidence and purpose of mind to succeed, in advance. An investment strategy that knows you seldom get what you’re after unless you know in advance what you want.
One aspect of the investment strategy would set clear and specific long-term goals. For without clear and specific goals a powerful force essential for success in the stock market would be missing. An investment goal, for example, that is predetermined to increase cash income from each and every stock market investment for the rest of your life would instill within you the power to fulfill the goal.
A second aspect of the investment strategy would be that it would only benefit the investor (no broker commission fees, management fees, advertising fees, operational fees) and no one else! It is for that reason this investment strategy has had very little promotion. No one has a vested interest in promoting it. It would benefit the investor and the investor alone. An investment strategy offering an enviable opportunity to learn how and when and why and where to invest in the stock market commission-free. An investment strategy used to invest regularly to increase income continuously, for the rest of your life.
The full potential of this stock market investment strategy can be recognized in the book The Stockopoly Plan – Investing for Retirement. Website: http://www.thestockopolyplan.com
