You watched the documentary, not us...

There are three main ways you can invest in stocks to make money:
1. Gamble without having a clue what you are doing and/or taking "hot tips"
2. Technical analysis - looking at the charts and using a variety of technical indicators and patterns to determine where the stock is going.
3. Fundamental analysis - Looking at news and what is going on in the world, financial statements of the company, etc.

A mixture of 2 and 3 tend to work best.

If you think you're going to get rich with stocks overnight when you don't know anything about them at all, you're in for a surprise though.

its bogus.......there are people who know how to invest, but these infomercials are a scam. these guys get rich not from stocks, but from convincing rookie investors they can get rich, and they are hit-up for a fee and boom the pitchman wins. multiply that by 100's or 1000's of suckers and thats how they get rich.

This is a very general overview or path.

Here's how to earn money in the market:
1] You study the market.

2] You learn about the different terms and investment strategies.

3] Before doing any investing of your hard-earned money, you develop different rules for different strategies. Through paper trading, you test those strategies.

4] You do the neceeary research or diligence about those stocks you're interested in.

5] Through your mistakes and observations, make necessary adjustments to your rules.

6] Abide by and follow those trading rules.

7] ONLY when the stock meets EVERY ONE of your trading rules, THEN you plan your trade.

8] For your financial survival, ALL three parts of this step are important:
8A] This step is called money management and discipline. You MUST do these steps or you're only fooling yourself.

8B] When your target price is reached you look for the next trade.

8C] When the trade goes against you and you lose the amount of money you decided you wouldn't lose any more of, you get out of the trade. THEN you move on to the next trade.

9] You do the same things over and over and over again and again and again.

IF you decide to experiment, youpaper trade that experimental strategy.

You buy at $1.00 USD and sell at $1.01

It's not exactly rocket science.


A nobody
Luck has nothing to do with trading/investing in securities sucessfully.

There are four areas that one needs to address when they decide to become a trader
1 - A written sound trading/investment plan with rules that will not only help you but more importantly protect you, mostly from yourself.
2 - Sufficient trading/investment capital. Use your own money, there’s no need to go into debt so that you trade/invest.
3 - A written money management program in place. Remember never invest 100% of your capital into any one security and never have 100% of your capital invested.
4 – A full and complete understanding of the rules & regulations of the industry.

Regardless of what you have heard, to be successful you need to work at, study and be devoted to what you want to do.

buy low and sell high, or sell high and buy back low.

Without seeing the documentary, it's hard to say.

The short answer to your question is to buy stocks at a low price and sell then at a higher price.

The hard part is knowing how to pick those stocks. For example, a year or so ago, Bear Stearns (BSC) looked really good. Now, it's lost > 80%.

Avoid people who give out "tips". They usually are no better informed than you or I.

If you want to learn about investing, start with a basic book like investing for dummies.

Good luck.

$50,000? or just $100 :)

if you go into ( for example ) penny trade and but 10,000 shares of a stock at the price of $0.01 then for every one (1) cent it go's up you make like $10,000 it does not happen a lot but by looking around you can find good companies that are at $0.01 and are coming back up, i've seen couple, but was to late to jump in. use this site to find companies at that low and which look like are coming back up, they also have a forum where traders are talking about new and good stock! Good luck!

http://friends.zecco.com/r/03e172105a27102b8555

and start off with $100 or so, dont put in a lot for the first time, usually the first timers go all in into something they "feel" is good, dont trust just your feeling but facts about the company too!

and this company does not even charge you that much :) unlink e trade with charges you like 12.99 per trade!!!! this one is only $4.50 :) really god for starters! :)
