Hello,

Could anyone recommend any good books on information on trade dealing and charting?

Trying to play some shares whilst the market is bottoming out and hopefully make a few quid.

Once in a lifetime opportunity at the moment IMO to get in before the stocks rise again.

Cheers

There's talk of the FTSE bottoming at around 3200 or testing that level. I think the same applies to the DOW hitting around 6000.

Once it bottoms out there's only one way for it to go. If you can get into the right stocks now and are happy to sit on them for a while you're potentially laughing.

There will be millionaires made out of this recession 100 times over. I don't have enough capital to start with so it won't be me but there's defo money to be made when the bounce happens.

No book recommendations but Interactive Investor (http://www.iii.co.uk/) and Motley Fool (http://www.fool.co.uk/) are a good source of info

Go with your own gut instinct, mate, but don't put all your wedge into one market sector.

I've bought a barrel-load of house-builder stock in recent weeks (it may seem foolish, but I've made a profit on them before) and those firms still quoted are worth a look.

Tobacco companies are always a good punt, too.

No need to buy a book there is plenty info on line....

Do some research using sites like those mentioned, read the buisness pages and buy an investors chronicle once in a while.

Buy a number of stocks (spend what you can afford and start reasonbly low) to build a porfolio..10 is around the number you might want to aim for to start and learn as you go...the more you do the more you will get into it and the more some of the slightly more advanced strategies will make sense.

There is obviously plenty wrong ways and a million suggestions of the right way but there is simply no magic formula...as some other poster mentioned gut instinct can be the best guide but try and base that instinct on the knowledge and info you have gleaned from you research!!


Not that I'm any expert...some of my portfolio has more than a wee tinge of red to it just now :boo hoo:
