        To play the stock market, one needs to equip with technical analysis knowledge and skills …

        though with insider tips will give one an opportunityto make quick bucks.

        i am not a pro…but i am a great believer of charts………
        With charts, u can time yr entry and exit more accurately
        rather than based on emotion…buying on europhia and selling on fears……
        And best not to read too much into news, be it good news or bad news….
        As we, retail investors, are often too late to react to news,
        example… the case of a bad news, after the initial big gap down,
        the moment when one sells, soon…shall see the immed rebound…
        with tick by tick realtime charts, it helps to minimise cut loss…

          Start learning.... Invest in yourself first.

          There are various disciplines of share/stock trading... I am more of a trader than investor though I do both.

          Some are fundamentalist, but like Augmum, I am also a chart artist.

          There are various ways to start learning...
          0. Learn about yourself and the real person you are... VERY important.
          1. Read books
          2. Read magazines
          3. Join an online community, some allow you leeway to ask noob questions
          4. Find mentors to learn from

                Wah, Augmum MadScientist are both season traders, Good!


                My style, cyclical investor with 2-3 yrs holding equities on an uptrend, stockpicking primarily using FA and timing using TA. Normally like to start picking stocks approx 9-12 months after major sell down of major blue chips and complete buying in 12-18 mths to ensure my reading is correct, prefer to buy on the way up. Much prefer a concentrated porfolio as oppose to diversification to outpeform the broad mkt.


                As for trading, more of a position trader dubbling in US stock indices.

                        Yes... some are subscribed, others are free...

                        Depends on instruments as well.

                        forexfactory has a huge forum...

                        and there is a following on Spiketrade in Singapore. A number of SGporeans are in SpikeTrade... I found out about this when I was in a workshop with Dr Alexander Elder.

                        For a start, read Elder's books... I like this management, etc. He taught me many things no other can teach.
