Stock market basics

for traders and investors

Stock market basics for traders and stock market investing basics for investors are necessary for everybody who want to make money on stock markets.

I have been asked several times about this issue. "What is important stock market know how" ?

To be honest I have to say that I am not sure what is absolutely necessary to know about stock markets to be profitable. And so I am open to every new piece of information I can find.

Some time ago I find one book. I started to read it and it I discovered that it is super book to learn basics on stock market. This book describes everything about stock markets. How they work. Who is involved in trading on stock markets. How orders work. What is it market maker. What are typical frauds on stock markets. And much more.

The name of book is Trading and Exchanges.


Here is short description from contents:

  1. The structure of Trading
    Basics about trading industry, market structure and brokers
  2. The Benefits of Trade
    Why people trade
  3. Speculators
    Speculators on markets and what they do ?
  4. Liquidity Suppliers

  5. Origins of Liquidity and Volatility

I like this book very much and recommend it to everybody. Be prepared to learn a lot of information. Book is relatively huge - so it will take time to read it.
