Share trading involves buying shares (stocks) of publicly traded companies and the hope the price would go up and you make profit.
But if you're new to investing, it's not as easy as it sounds.
Let's see some of the examples.

1. Good deal. In 2006 Google bought YouTube for $1.65 billion, fast forward to 2020 and taking into account that YT makes up about 10% of Alphabet Inc revenue, it would be worth around $100 billion now. That's staggering 6,000% ROI in just 14 years.

2. Bad deal. On the other hand, in 2013, Yahoo acquired Tumblr for $1.1 billion, fast forward just 6 years, and in 2019, yahoo sold it to Automattic for $3 million.
Whether you buy a company or just shares, it's important to do your research.

3. It's vital to do your homework before you're ready to trade shares.
For example, google with their financial muscle and expertise, failed over 50 projects.
Never put all your eggs in 1 basket. Diversify.

1. Take note of the past trends. If you know the history of the market, you can make better decisions and predict what the future will possibly be like.
2. Don’t be controlled by your tools. Although the Forex robot and advisers are helpful, don’t let them make the decisions for you. Look for other sources of information before you decide.

Why Volume Matters when Trading FX?
There is a myth out there that suggests that volume in fx markets does not exist and furthermore if it did, it cannot be calculated. The reason for this explanation is as below:

Stocks and Futures are traded on a centralized exchange, therefore each trade that goes through is recorded and therefore is readily available, making it very easy for a trader to view the volumes on any given day.

In fx however, there is no actual centralized exchange, rather fx is traded through an inter bank system, thus making it very difficult to see what the volume is and where it may be coming from.

Financial spread betting is a saturated market and the competition among brokers is fierce, giving a great opportunity for spread bettors to shop around.
In this thread we look into providers and how to find a good deal.

1. Range of Markets. Some brokers will offer over 10k different financial markets to choose from so make sure your chosen provider offers the markets you want to trade. Some accounts will offer a wide range of shares to trade whereas others might offer more fx pairs.

2. Trading Platform. Most of the time spread betting comparison websites will list platforms offered by each broker, so at a glance you can select a provider who offers you the trading platform you're most comfortable with.
