@Bache Tehroon I hear what you are saying one thing my parents started doing is invest in gold coins back in the 80s, when it was
$400 an oz, every year for my birthday today it is $1,771
So That gold that i have is probably estimated at $80-000, 100,000, saved for a rainy day.
As for you and @Pooya I believe rather than spending $300 a month ill wait for $1,000 and either invest in some
VOO and looking at VTI
I learned about E.T.F
An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a type of security that involves a collection of securities—such as stocks—that often tracks an underlying index, although they can invest in any number of industry sectors or use various strategies. ETFs are in many ways similar to mutual funds; however, they are listed on exchanges and ETF shares trade throughout the day just like ordinary stock.
So question Pooya jan is this VOO Vanguard S&) i know ETF but is it more energy based?
Seems like in Q1 it blew the competition. I will save $1,000 and buy about what 4 shares to start rather than $200-300. I can wait 30 years
I"m 38 so that will put me at 68, retirement time
Meci dude i'm doing my homework

Currently sitting at $267.00 a share so if i get little over $1,000 i can start with 4 shares, perhaps TD Ameritrade
i believe it is $7 a share to buy online there, which is NOTHING.

Alright, back to the subject, looking at the thread and reading a lot of good suggestions and even less good advices here, I get reminded of exactly what it is, "it's not easy to trade as a layperson in the joungle of stock market", but very nice if you doing it by learning or (learning by doing it) and do it step by step.
You need to read quite a lot during the day on the financial situation, daily basis and update your understanding of how crazy stock market is, read even the newspapers, magazines or follow the media you don't like.
Its just like planning to greet friends in the summer cottage, the cottage close to the lake.
1 - Potty training your kids before you arrive!
2 - Find out how loudness you and your partner are in your bedroom!
However, here are my rules and checklist;
- Activating the Fill or Kill "FOK" is my motto (a principle), never get too greedy nor wait too long when it starts running downhill. Up 4%, Down 2%, sell!
- The floating assets/amount of disponible in your securities account is vital, many times life changing on a bad Monday.
- I no longer care about long-term equity investments, I have given up that idea, buy and sell during the same day is my motto, set off losses vs gains when filing your annual federal income Tax.
- Never ever own any shares when the bell of the market goes for the day, absoulutly not over the weekend (friday afternnon is the deadline for me) equipoise and exit!
- Avoid private deposits and mutual funds as far as possible, mutual funds are crap. Damn dumb brokers. (By the way brokers are outdated, fuk'm)
- Stay away from offsetting short positions and warrants, not for laypersons.
Enbridge, a vigorous, healhty and low-risk businesses to explore.
