I want to start envesting in stocks but i am clueless HELP!!!?

like i want to do online stock traiding i need info

These are the things you must do:
1] You need a set of trading rules for each and every strategy you are using.

You don't have to learn a lot of different strategies/tactics. You only need 4 to 8.

To get to the point where you are a successful trader, confident with your trades and trading. it takes time, discipline, diligence & practice

I can almost GUARANTEE: in the beginning you will not earn any money. You'll have a few winners and you'll have losers.

Its OK to fall down - as long as you get up & learn from that fall. You have to learn from your mistakes. You do that by "tweaking" your trading rules AND by more closely following your own rules.

The trading concept: to make your winners more successful than your losers.

I don't know what kind of reading you're doing or if you have any trading experience. I'm sure you'll related that information at a later time.

THE BIGGEST mistakes new traders & investors make:
A] They don't have any trading rules.

B] They don't do any research about any "stock tip". They pay more attention to tips, THEN DIVE-IN to the trade. What happens? They lose lots of money!

C] Instead of paper trading/virtual trading their rules, they immediately put their money on the line. There is a HUGE difference between pretending & using real money.

ONE Q one of my mentors asked me:
â€œHow do you eat an elephant? I thought about it & answered, â€œI donâ€™t know.â€
He replied, â€œOne bite at a time.

You should make an investment in a book: â€œStock Investing for Dummiesâ€ OR â€œInvesting for Dummiesâ€. Iâ€˜m not exactly sure of the title.
Read 1 hour/day OR 1-2-3-4-5 pages per day.
Use a pen: to make notes.
A yellow highlighter: for those sections which impress you. A green highlighter for those â€œAHA!â€ passages & sentences. THEN outline on your computer.

As you read & research about investments, sometimes you'll come across financial or investment terms you never heard or saw before. You can usually find excellent, easy-to-understand definitions of many financial and investment terms by using Investopedia.

http://investopedia.com also has a free, paper trading platform. You can set up a virtual account and almost trade as though you were trading with your own hard-earned money. Itâ€™s recognized by Y! A as a "Featured Knowledge Partner"

It's your hard-earned money.

Before you invest, you really should do research about what you are investing in.

http://finance.yahoo.com is also recognized by Y! A as a "Featured Knowledge Partner". It also has a free virtual trading or paper trading platform.

Thanks for asking me! I enjoyed answering it!

Yes that is my real last name!

You are not ready to invest in anything. Start by reading "Investing For Dummies."

Before you spend any money, start reading things like the wall street journal and learn! There are many books on investing, just remember that everyone thinks they are experts. Also, watch fox news when they have their bulls and bears segment, it is pretty good. Always start small and don't invest more than you can afford to lose!

The first thing you will need to do is open a stock account. The selection of which brokerage house to use will most likely be determined by what your investment plans are.

A few to look at: ING Inc., Zecco, ETrade, Scottrade, Tradebuilders, TD Ameritrade

Look at all suggestions closely before making a final decision.

You can invest in mutual funds. There will be many people who suggest these, but you should be aware that about 75% of them under perform the market. All of them have management fees, and some have sales loads. There are better options in my opinion.

ETF's are basically the same thing as mutual funds, but with overall lower average fees.

DRIP Plans are a favorite suggestion of mine.

They are seldom talked about because brokers make very little money when they suggest them. Yet, they have proven to be one of the best, if not the best, long-term strategy on Wall Street.

The best part is you get to choose from the best Blue Chip International Corporations in the world. You can have Toyota, General Electric, Royal Canadian Bank or McDonalds in your portfolio. Although there is always risk in stocks, these Blue Chip giants offer far less risk than most.

They are inexpensive to start and maintain, and your dividends are reinvested for free.

They are perfect for small investors, as well as big investors. They will allow you to sleep at night and not care about whether the market is going up or down.

These 3 investment vehicles are common ways many beginning investors get started.

Best of Luck

Visit a financial professional, look at their portfolio preformance history, there are snakes and good managers in every industry, so really ask alot of questions, if he/she is happy to spend time with you (even if you don't have gobs of money) then they may actually want to help you.

I came across this blog review recently of a stock trading method and the it finds stocks that have the highest potential to double and apparently it works like a charm

Here it is

Hope it helps!

Clueless is a good way to lose money. Perhaps try investing in mutual funds first. These are run by professionals who know what works and what doesn't.

If that isn't your style, try sharebuilder.com...

if you still insistent in losing money open an account at Etrade.com

Buy low - sell high.
