A basic introduction to self directed stock investing, basic technical indicators and charting, long term vs short term trading, mutual funds vs ETFs and index tracking stocks…everything you need to know to advance to the next level (options and more advanced technical analysis, swing and trend trading, index options and spreads, etc).

History has shown us there are plenty of individuals who beat the market and beat it consistently. Consider Warren Buffet or James Simons—examples of investors who executed the right combination of steady investment methods and calculated risk over decades to build truly impressive fortunes.
