In the opinion of this blog, the easiest and safest way to begin trading is to use what is referred to as Swing Trading. Simply put, this is where you identify stocks that routinely rise and fall. The longer the history of this the better. The first step is to locate these characteristics, then buy when there is a modest decrease in the price. Second step is to be prepared to sell at a expected level in its usual cycle of fluctuation.
This sound like a meek and perhaps ineffective technique. It is human nature to do deep analysis and hope to find the next block buster. However, that is highly complicated and takes a great deal of time. Approaching the market in a systematic and consistent way can lead to great rewards. This is a well proven and tested strategy.
