The company I invested into ($1500) has yearly revenue of about 10 million dollars. However, when I bought my 1300 shares I didn't know what volume meant! So after the stock market closed I looked at the stock I bought. I looked at the volume. It was 1300! I put two and two together and realized I might have made a very poor investment! About 6 days ago it was trading for $1.80 and I bought it at $1.15 and right now it is $1.10.

Low volume does not mean poor investment. Just means its not on people radar. There are alot of things to take into consideration like how many shares or outstading or in the float. If there are very few shares then it will not take alot to move the stock up or down. A stock could go up or down 20% on as few as 100 shares traded depending on the size of the float. Also what does the chart look like? Has it been flat for 2 years or is there alot of movement?
Can any one here help me to know which is the best way to make money from Day Trading in Indian Stock Market as I have lost lot of money over here. Any software or any thing else will be of great help to me. Please explain in detail. Thanks

Unless you are a professional day trader, you most likely will lose your money. If you are a regular guy (like a student, doctor ,lawyer, electrician, chef, etc..) you must realize you are trading against professional traders. Its like a minor league ball player trying to compete against a pro. You'll lose almost every time, except the few times you get lucky.

Never play a hunch, thats for suckers. Whatever you buy, if it makes a 10% profit, take it and move on.
What classes and where can be taken? If there are classes, would there be any in San Diego or Seattle?

I'm not sure about specific courses but here are some links to websites that are known for proven stock and option trading tools. They have some courses you can sign up for.

www.shadowtrader.net

www.thinkorswim.com

In other words, why does the stock market close at certain times during the day/night? Why doesn't it just run 24/7? I have some theories but lets hear what Yahoo Answers can provide.

You have to let the traders get some sleep.

For day trading commodity market is best they are not suitable for long term strategy.

if you desire stock market (even Indian Stocks) you should go with technical analysis (search engines like Yahoo, Google, MSN give you link to may sites) – it is like swimming in sea shore.

I.e. lowest fees, best graphs/info, etc
Day trading


I use interactivebrokers.com because they are by far the cheapest, but they are not nearly as user friendly as most. Optionsxpress has great tools, virtual trading and good learning items but your at 9.99 on both sides of the trade. Ive also heard good things about think or swim, schwab, and scottrade too. It all depends on how much hand holding you need in your trading.

Good luck

If you have experience or links to information on stock trading would you mind sharing your tips and beginner info and a good place to get started for the individual investor. I know it's a risky business and you need all the information possible to have some skill before beginning. Thanks for any info!

What is demat account? – this question as been answered many times at yahoo. However, i have some more ques to ask:

1) I understand that Demat account is controlled by ndsl / cdsl through their agents (DPs) and holds shares in electronic form. But what is Trading accoun, its structure and function? Who opens and control this account? Is it the broker?

2) Other than the opening charges of demat a/c, are their more charges such as maintenance of demat a/c or other hidden costs. NDSL site gives the details of many DPs with their fees etc in table format (which is difficult to understand). What i thought actually was that i had to pay only broker charges+service tax, when i deal with share market. What may be other hidden costs?

3) What are brokrage charges for intra-day and dilevery that can be considered good enough?

4) How vulnerable is share market (specially intra-day) to the market games/manipulations by some experts or parties having big amounts or many computer terminal
Guys, If you cant answer all the parts of my question, you are free to answer portion of it as well.!
