Ok, so you have heard about this thing called the 'Stock Market', people are making lots of money from it.

The first thing you have to realise is that there is not 1 way to make money on the market.

There is not even 1 'right' way to make money on the market.

All that is involved is an investor/trader/punter looking over a bunch of information and making a judgement as to which securities/commodities/currencies are going to move in which direction and then buying and selling financial instruments accordingly.

You can be taught strategies to make money in a scenario where you think that an asset will increase or decrease in value, what cannot be taught is how to accurately predict where any asset will move...

You can make a very strong guess but all it takes is for North Korea to let off a nuke and then who knows what will happen...

So please with the questions don't ask:

How can I make $10,000 profit if I have $5,000 to invest.

This might be more appropriate:

I have been thinking and researching(Shock Horror) and the world's supply of (Insert commodity/asset here) is shrinking, how would I best profit from this assumption?
 
I am not asking for advice...

I am sick of reading through threads with people saying, what should I do with $5000...

EDIT: I don't know why I bother...

Very enigmatic of you. :)

It is easy to turn that $5k into $40k in a matter of weeks all you need to do.... oh wait sorry missed the first line
 
Good luck finding a newbie who already knows roughly what they want to invest in :)

...and besides - with the recent (and current) fall in the stock market, don't you think just getting in there and buying some shares is a good option? Obviously that needs to be refined into something more specific (maybe even coffee!), which is where the search for information begins - but you've got to start somewhere... and unfortunately for your sanity, the search function here requires several years of technical charting experience before you can find anything useful :run:
