Looking to buy some stock in particular company ( I'm all set on that ).
Probably around 5k-10k to start. So, not much.
Whats a good website to do that, and how does it work exactly. Ideally something with minimal fees.
How do I fund the buying of stocks? ( Credit/Debit, Wire Transfer, etc. )
Do I need a dedicated bank account for it?
Thanks,
|

You fund with bank transfer in most likelihood.

I was told that forex trading is better than stock/share trading.
However you do need to be clued up with what's going on across the world

The other thing with forex is you should NOT be holding it for long time...many stocks you can hold for long time.

If sounds like you are looking to trade with a discount broker. Personally I use tdameritrade. Some people use sharbuilder I think the fee per transaction is a bit less. Some like scottrade. I mean Google discount broker and really take your pick. You can usually look up the fees and all that. Just try to decide what is best for you.

I hope we are not talking about the future already!

Thanks, | Such an old thread..
You open a brokerage account through a company like TD Ameritrade or Vanguard, fund your account and allocate funds to a index fund, add money overtime and that's how you invest. I suggest index funds because they're much safer than individual stocks which fluctuate wildly.
I pulled out all my funds a couple years ago to purchase houses (when they were cheap).. now as the stockmarket reaches record highs.. I'm interested in it again. |
