We have considered a huge number of stock topics, it's time to find out how much "to weigh in grams". To be more specific, what expenses are waiting for those who are planning to start working on the stock market. The conditions of the brokers are of course different, I will try to give you a rather universal answer, but with an emphasis on conditions in my company. 1. Training fees The first possible expense you should make, in my opinion, should be training fees. There are a huge number of free lectures on the Internet, but some of them are not up to date, do not contain information about changes in legislation, missing important innovations. That's why elementary courses need to be taken. They will give you a direction in which you should move, teach you how to use...

At the moment in our country there is a reform in the regulation of the FOREX market. So far it is moving slowly. And I think it makes sense to talk about alternative currency trading. Today I would like to tell beginners traders about the peculiarities of work with currency pairs at the Moscow exchange. In contrast to the FOREX market, the most popular here is the pair dollar/ruble. Another important difference is that with the pair dollar/ruble you can carry out transactions with the equivalent of $ 1000 or more. Not very easy dollar/ruble pair on the Moscow Exchange [info_block align="right"]And the Russians know the dollar/ruble pair very well. Wrong! You know nothing about this pair. [/info_block]At first glance, this...

In this article we would like to touch upon the most frequent mistakes of traders. At first sight, the topic is rich and inexhaustible. But if we analyze the causes of these errors, it turns out that there are not so many catalysts. Let's start with checking ourselves. Whatever trader's mistakes and problems you decide to get rid of, look at yourself in relation to two parameters: 1. Are you trading on a free and comfortable amount of money? Can you say that the money you have put into the stock market is not critical to your financial plan for the next few years? I have repeatedly brought up the topic of choosing the right amount for stock trading, determining the acceptable level of risk for personal...

There is a tradition in Russia of celebrating the new year in a boisterous and grand manner. Helping to spill over into Old New Year, February 14 and 23, and March 8. Because of this, several months become a time of gifts and congratulations... Endless gifts and congratulations. Well, maybe that's not a bad thing? It's nice to give gifts! To support the tradition, and to the publication, with which we are united by a long friendship, I will also make a small gift. The best gift, as you know, the one that is made with your own hands. But it gets a special charm if it is also original. As an analyst, I could give you a year's prognosis, but it's trivial. I'll do something unusual, although partly already...

The topic of trust management and investing in funds is very complicated for me. Every time it comes up in front of me, I don't know what is easier for a person - to manage money myself or to trust professionals. It probably seems strange, because the answer seems obvious! Trust management - we will do everything for you! [info_block align="right"]It is worth choosing such forms of asset management, which have a democratic entrance threshold.[/info_block] Trust management in the stock market excludes your own technical mistakes, frees up time, is carried out by people, who are exchange professionals. Yes, this is all true, but... The manager trades according to a strictly set strategy, which has certain indicators on the level of risk. When you invest your money,...

Newcomers to the stock market often confuse the concepts of "trading robots" and "autotracking strategies". Trading robots or signals Trading robots are mechanical trading systems that, according to a certain algorithm, calculate signals for trading transactions and conduct these operations on the exchange. Robots are created by those traders, who have received a great deal of training, made up a trading algorithm and tested it on past data. Autosurvey systems are applications that send trading signals to users' accounts according to a strategy that may not be included in a robot's trading algorithm, but is the evaluation activity of a stock expert. This exchange expert can make a decision based on any method of market analysis -...

The RTS index, having risen above the downtrend of 2011, and the MICEX index, which, albeit conditionally, has renewed its historic maximum, have raised the morale of Russian stockbrokers. Their eyes, burning with a greedy and satisfied gleam, are the best advertisement for brokerage houses. Rows of new recruits streamed to our training center for new knowledge. traders in the stock market Newcomers mostly come with no basic knowledge at all. We help them choose their way easily. But there are newcomers "with weight" - traders who have already tried their forces in OTC FOREX trading. It is sometimes difficult for them to get used to our exchange terminals, but in the market analysis for people accustomed to high risk trading there is no equal. Recently, someone from...

The second half of the last summer month - it's time to make plans for the fall. Alas, I cannot plan any aggressive purchases for the medium-term portfolio that would bring a large income, so I have to place most of my ruble cache in OFZ, and then wait for the weather. When to enter the market in the medium term? Ideas for medium-term buying of Russian shares come very spotty. There are a lot of strong Russian stocks, but they are hard to grab. Why? Apparently because in dollar terms, many of our securities are either in a falling trend or have not yet had time to draw a steady upward trend. The rallies are going fast, which looks very unnatural. Mass market entry on the middle...

In the last issue of Fortrader we began to analyze the necessary procedures for making a deal on the stock market. In this article I will try to show in pictures how stock trading takes place, to make it easier for you to orient yourself in the trading terminal and not to make the mistakes I wrote about earlier. So, you have made an analysis of the securities and decided to purchase them. What to do next? Trade the stock. Checking "Bids", "Stop Bids", "Deals" and "Portfolio" In the trading terminal "Tranzac" (we will show the trading process on its example), we need to conduct a number of actions that will not only allow us to make the intended deal, but will also protect it from technical errors....

Beginning traders lose money or do not earn as much as they would like in the stock market for three main reasons: They come to the stock exchange with an unfree and uncomfortable amount of money; They are lackadaisical; They do not know how to compare different types of assets and their possibilities, i.e. they do not know how to analyze the market situation to a sufficient extent. If these reasons for losses do not concern you or have already been eliminated by you, you should not relax. There is another reason that can bring your account to zero - it's the inability to handle the trading terminal! "Oh yeah, I have a problem with stops. Activation price, condition, market, limit... Yes, and I confuse buy with sell!", you will say, sarcastically....

As part of our FORTRADER.org training course, we have covered a lot of complex topics and nuances of trading on the Russian stock market. But lately we have been talking more and more about the little things and trader's tricks that make his life easier, more pleasant and even safer. Let's not jump off this saddled horse and continue on our way. The importance of the volume of trades and the "leaders of growth and decline" Please tell me, before making a deal, how much money can you enter the paper, so as not to make a "mess" in it? So that there is always both a buyer and a seller? I do regular monitoring. First of all, so that I don't get into such a difficult situation, and...

April started unusually in the Russian stock market. It is not a secret that our stockbrokers are used to follow oil as the main guide and make transactions on the dollar/ruble pair or on our shares, depending on its fluctuations. And since the beginning of April traders, who chose the correlation between oil and the ruble exchange rate as their instrument, were discouraged. Several times a day the objective economic law "expensive dollar - cheap oil" just did not work. And the two assets, oil and the dollar against the ruble, moved in the same direction. To be fair, of course, not in equal percentages. But still! Someone believes that this behavior of the contracts was due to...

My dear readers, on the pages of FORTRADER.org magazine I present two types of articles - market reviews and training materials. Often I do a mix, and in one article you can find both. This time I decided to go further. I want to introduce you to another part of my work. I have several distance learning courses for beginners in stock trading, and at the end of the course traders have the opportunity to ask me questions. Sometimes the questions are trivial and can be answered with a blanket, sometimes they are complicated and I have to consult with specialists from different fields in our company. In this way I develop myself and do not get bored. "Porridge...

My dear novice traders, unfortunately, I am becoming more and more convinced that personal experience in the stock market, not put through the lens of statistics, is a great evil. The day before yesterday a potential client called and told me how great his first trade was on the dollar from 41 to 68 rubles. He wants to get into the currency again, disregarding the fact that since 1997, investing in the dollar was the worst investment idea ever. Yes, yes! And anyway, buying currency is an exchange transaction, not an investment. Yesterday a lady informed me that you can't tell newbies about "shorts" because she lost, on "shorts," 50% of capital. К...

The depressed state of commodity markets and the fuss over emergency meetings of the U.S. Federal Reserve made many traders forget that the fourth Thursday of November is the start of the first of a whole cycle of winter rallies. The fourth Thursday in November is Thanksgiving in the U.S. A stock market proverb says: "Buy on Thanksgiving and sell on Christmas, and then the New Year's gifts will pay off! It is not customary for my readers and me to take foreign wisdom at its word, so let's check how our market reacted to a foreign tradition in the past. And just in case, let's see if the main U.S. index Dow Jones is following this tradition? A little research (see table) shows that the Thanksgiving rally is not an uncommon guest...

In the virtual pages of ForTrader magazine we have repeatedly raised complex topics from exotic theories of market analysis to deep problems of trading psychology. But sometimes elementary things are left out of the picture. For example, I have a lot of new traders coming to my personal support now, and they are constantly asking, "How to open a "short" (bet on the decline) to make money on the decline of securities?" Let me give you a little instruction. I recommend reading this article also to those for whom "shorting" is as commonplace as brushing your teeth in the morning and before going to bed. The essence of a "short" or a sell deal on the stock market is simple - sell someone else's, borrowed shares while they are expensive and buy off as cheaply as possible....

In our long-term cooperation with ForTrader.org magazine we have raised various topics - from novice traders' complexes to exotic trading strategies. It would seem, what else can we give our readers in terms of learning how to trade on the Russian stock market? Watching the experienced and beginners traders, I realized that it is necessary to periodically recite the banal technique of trading security. Either it is forgotten with time, or times are such that it is difficult to earn, and one needs money here and now! When one needs money here and now - this is not a stock story at all. Go to an expensive casino, at least enjoy some free champagne at the end and...

"Soft currencies" are non-convertible or restricted convertible currencies that are subject to relatively large exchange rate fluctuations due to economic and political factors. It is opposed to hard or freely convertible currencies. Historically, in Russia and the CIS countries, such currencies usually refer to the currencies of the former Soviet Union. What are "soft currencies"? "Soft currencies" represent an interesting high risk and high yield investment instrument of the interbank market. More precisely, they were. The dawn of trade in currencies of former Soviet republics, which for the most part were not freely convertible, came in the first decade after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Currently, investments in "soft currencies" are practically nonexistent due to various legal restrictions, although the Moscow Exchange and...

Summer is an excuse to relax. But take your time, we'll shake your mind a bit and get you back to the stock market and closer to your brokerage account. Why? So you don't lose your deposit by the end of the summer. Let's look at 5 reasons why stock traders lose deposits in the summer. 1. You make trades at the close of the registers (cut-offs) Many traders believe that before the close of the registers, stocks go up, and after the close of the registers, they go down. The stock market folk sometimes don't understand that the register is not closed for dividends this time, but for a shareholders' meeting, or that the dividend will be tiny. Needless to say, few of them have looked back and checked the true...

You could have been lazy and as a review of the current situation and the forecast for the next month to find and present your review of two years ago. For the situation on the Russian stock market and the balance of power has not changed much. There is still a downtrend on the RTS Index, indicating a depreciation of our market in dollars, and our investors are still forced to choose only strong securities in order to survive. "Buy anything and forget it" style investing is still very dangerous. Still, there are some stocks that are rising despite all the market adversity. I believe early summer will be a good time to catch some strong Russian stocks in your portfolios. If you are going to...
