Internet Stock Trading and Market Research for the Small Investor

Internet Stock Trading and Market Research for the Small Investor is a beginner's guide to online trading that eliminates the prerequisite of technical charting, and simplifies the formulation of buying and selling positions down to a fundamental interpretation of corporate news that drives the market.

    The first part of the book introduces novice traders to basic market dynamics and terminologies, and exposes them to online trade regulations and web resources where market information can be accessed to formulate short-term daily trading positions. The investment strategies recommended in this book target the growing trend of online investors, including short-term and first-time traders who don't employ technical analysis as a trading compass.

    In the second part, Internet Stock Trading and Market Research for the Small Investor offers individual market researchers an alternative software tool to financial database subscriptions called SMART, which provides free access to discrete-time market data necessary for technical analysis.

    This combination of the trading and research aspects of the stock market leaves you with an encompassing introduction to the market dynamics, and to the sensible investment strategies that maximize profit from short-term positions in an environment of financial volatility.
