Where can I learn stock trading online from scratch?

There is a simple rule “Never jump in water unless you know how to swim” The same is with share market. I have heard many people saying that Start investing in share market and you will automatically learn about it. I think this is nothing but a bull shit. How could one invest in share market if he doesn’t know the ABC of share Market.

So my first tip to students and beginners in share market is Learn about share market before you start investing. There are tons of sources from where you can gain the basic knowledge about share market but I will suggest you to read the blogs on websites related to stock market. I am sharing the links of some websites which I think are very useful for beginners.

1. http://www.finnovationz.com/
2. http://www.sharemarketschool.com/
3. https://www.investopedia.com/
4. http://www.niveshmanthan.in/
5. Stock Market Trading Courses & Classes Online | OTA

Second best source is to watch videos on YouTube. Again there are many channels but the best which I found is the Hindi YouTube channel of FinnovationZ.com. Their explanation about the stock market is in very simplest manner with animated videos.

Once you gain the required basic knowledge about share market then my second tip will be to start reading the newspaper like Economic Times, magazines like The wall street Journal etc. Also visit the website of MoneyControl and Economic Times so as to know about the movement of share market, its current position etc.

Now when you think that you have gained ample of knowledge about share market then you can start investing in share market. To start investing you must have a demat account. To open a demat account you must have a pancard, identity proof and a bank account. There are thousands of brokerage firms in India where you can open a demat account. Choose a broker who’s service is good as well as the brokerage rates are low. Once you have a demat account you are all set to start investing.

The major problem of students is that they are not earning and hence have limited money. So students should be very careful while investing. One wrong step can wipe out all your money from and you will left with an empty pockets. So to save yourself, study about the company in which you are investing, analyze it, see previous data and then invest in it.

The best advice any one could give a beginner is that Be a Discipline Investor, not a Aggressive Trader. Learn from your mistakes, Don’t follow others blindly and the most important have patience. Always remember that the market is supreme.

Keep on investing, keep on learning and one day you will be an Expert of Share market. And today’s students will be the Warren Buffett, Rakesh Jhunjhunwala and Vijay Kedia of tomorrow.

Wish you a Happy Investing and Happy learning!!

Thank You!
