Neenah | What's they key to trading, buying, and selling stock? |
I just don't understand it. I remember watching Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd, and it seemed like the idea was to buy low sell high and you were simply guessing and taking a chance. I want to now exactly what the strategy is. |

Investing in "individual" stocks takes a lot of knowledge and practice; so I would not suggest doing this until you understand completely how the stock markets work.
Instead visit Vanguard.com and learn about mutual funds, index funds, and exchange-traded-funds (ETFs). Trading funds is less risky than trying to trade "individual" stocks.
Unless you plan on spending everyday of your life looking at stock charts trying to determine the best time to get in and out of "individual" stocks, I would look into some sort of fund.
Also be very careful about asking for stock tips online. Most are probably worthless or contain unethical motives. Do not fall for any Pump-and-Dump scams.
As far as books go, I actually started out with the Investing for Dummies books, and they definitely pushed me in the right direction. To many other books have their own agendas in my opinion.
The websites below all contain plenty of FREE information to get you started in the right direction. |

there are a variety of strategies. If you want to know what the theories are either buy a good book on the subject or you could get your series 6 license and go to work for a broker |

You will probably not know what this means but here goes
"With proper money management, you will win regardless of which direction the market takes."
Learn to win when the market goes up down and sideways.
Yes, I've already learned it. |

Yeah, buy low sell high. You have that part okay. For whatever its worth, have the brokerage hold the stock certificates. If you have them, it can be a pain to sell them, etc. Other advice from other Answers is correct, buy and hold for the long term. Also, check if the company offers a DRIP program which will automatically invest your dividends. For a small number of shares, it will add up over time. |

The strategy is to not do what you saw in that movie. Firstly, they weren't even trading stocks in that movie. They were trading futures contracts, which is a derivative product. Futures contracts are very risky if done incorrectly.
You intuitiion about "guessing and taking a chance" is not far off from how the markets actually work. The stock market behaves in a random walk, so it is futile to try to develop a strategy to properly enter and exit the market.
The key to building wealth in the stock market is to use low-cost index mutual funds and hold for the long run. You do not want to trade a lot.
I have a free downloadable book that will explain stocks, bonds, and mutual funds in an easy to understand format:

Neenah, PLEASE realize that "Trading Places" is a MOVIE. Making $30 million in a day doesn't happen (except to lottery winners). There IS no other strategy for investing except consistent contributions and time. |

Buy low, sell high. To do this you need to study. You seem like you are a beginner. Go to the library and read some books on the fundamentals of investing.
If you do no research than you are simply guessing. Getting rich takes a long time. |
