Ok well I don't know nothing about trading, just one thing.
Buy, hope it goes up, sell. Rinse repeat.
In my on going effort to raise my financial IQ, I've came upon the realization that I should probably diversify my study beyond real estate, and start the process of learning how the stock market works and how to make money at it.
So my question is where do I start? What are some books you experts might recommend I read so I can get the vocabulary down?
I want to learn how to successfully trade myself, even if it means losing some money to ingrain the lessons to be learned. I don't want to just give my money over to some broker and have him do it for me leaving me in the dark and learning nothing.
I was thinking of just reading some books, taking $500-$1000, signing up with Scottrade or something similar, and seeing what happens.
Any thoughts, feedback, opinions, and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
