Just read through it all, and it seems starting very early on has done you well, I will most likely sit on the virtual side until I have the confidence and knowledge to invest with my parents consent. Sounds interesting :)

I'm confused as to how you managed to day trade with only $15K...

[Darklord33]

Very good guide you've done. I started investing in stocks in the summer of 2013, played around with them and as I learned more, I determined what type of investor I want to be. I'm now at the same point as I was when I started with the recent correction but I'm not too worried about the short-term future.

My only comment is adding on to what you said about the Pink Sheets. It's true that most of the stocks there are small/microcap (which I would never recommend buying as a lot of scams exist there) but there are some huge, very important foreign companies that only trade in their home market (along with the Pink sheets). (BASF, Bayer, Nestle, Samsung Electronics, etc). I own shares of two Large-cap Eastern Asian companies that trade on the Pink sheets, but the only difference is that you have to call your broker to buy shares. They are very stable, just like General Electric and Wal-Mart on the NYSE.

I understand why you generalized. Perhaps this listing of the 2000 largest companies in the world by Forbes would be good place for all us investors to look at large companies around the world. As long as they can produce credible financial numbers (that are public) and trade on some type of active exchange, then there usually isn't much of an issue in investing in these large companies.

Is it true that you don't have to pay capital gains tax if you make under a certain amount as income (outside of the stock market)? Great guide.

[Circular]

Yes this is true, but only if you are in the lower end of the tax brackets as far as I'm aware
I'll have to check up on exactly how much/how little you need to make to qualify but the number in my head is about $40,000; meaning if you make less than that per year in taxable income you can have 0% tax on the gains.
So, this is generally applicable and can be used to the advantage of younger investors whom only have part time jobs or don't make much over a year

Oh, sweet. So I guess I don't have to declare anything on tax forms. Certainly helps. Thanks.

I've been reading and re-reading this thread for over an hour now and I'm finally getting a feeling that this is something that I could do in my spare time, I'm still fairly unconfident in my knowledge so I'm not investing anything in a near future. Thanks for your time to teach us so much.

Your dedication to the stock market is very nice. I just read some of this and I am confused as hell. You buy stocks and later sell when the rate rises? So you can actually guess?

No idea if these are some valid questions inside the stock market as I am very unexperienced and have no clue. Just trying to learn something from the stock market.

[Zone Sirius]

Yes you buy low and then sell high to make a profit.. And yes you can actually guess the market, although it is not 100%

You should take a look at http://www.investopedia.com/

And I can wait as long as I want? Example I invest 500,000$ and the market goes deep down for a very long time, am I able to wait for how long I want even though it's probably not recommendable?

I dont know if you heard of this new trading site with $0 Commission. "Robinhood(.)com"

I have a question regarding a company that seems to have two stocks. There is this drug manufacturer called Advaxis that I think would be a good short term investment, but they seem to list under ADXS and ADXSW. Both are different prices, what is the difference between the two?

[Dr. Pokey]

Quick google search about ADVAXIS led me to this:
http://ir.advaxis.com/press-releases/det...d-warrants

Basically, ADXS is their common stock, ADXSW are warrants which are excercisable immediately and expire 5 years from issuance.
You'll obviously want to invest in ADXS as opposed to ADXSW

Some other companies will have multiple tickers for other reasons such as GOOGLE which has "GOOGL" "GOOG" due to their stock split and the formation of different classes. (One having voting privilege, the other not.)

Ah I understand now. Thanks for clearing that up.
