1. Understanding Trading Basics
Trading is the process of buying and selling assets (like stocks, commodities, or cryptocurrencies) with the goal of making a profit. There are two main types of trading:
Day trading: Buying and selling assets within a single day.
Long-term trading: Holding onto assets for weeks, months, or even years.
2. Types of Markets to Trade
Stock market: Buying shares of companies listed on stock exchanges like the NYSE or Nasdaq.
Forex market: Trading currencies like the US Dollar (USD), Euro (EUR), or Yen (JPY).
Cryptocurrency market: Trading digital currencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), or others on platforms like Binance or Coinbase.
Commodities market: Trading physical assets like gold, oil, or agricultural products.
3. Learn the Key Concepts
Bid and Ask Price: The bid is the highest price someone is willing to pay, and the ask is the lowest price someone is willing to sell for.
Spread: The difference between the bid and ask price. A smaller spread means lower trading costs.
Leverage: Using borrowed capital to increase the potential return of an investment. Be careful — leverage also increases risk.
Margin: The money required to open a leveraged trade.
Stop-loss and Take-profit: Tools used to automatically close your position at a certain price to limit losses or lock in profits.
