My understanding of ETF is a stability stock with minimum volatility. Inexperience investors may want to consider it. Dividend not bad le..
Learning on ownself to me is dangerous. Same like learning to drive without a trainer. You will listen to noise with minimum resistance. I won't say sure fail.. But your opportunity cost is likely to be high.
Also learn to control your greed and fear.

Well it is the basic principal to do your own study and research before applying what you have learned. Most of all nothing will happen if you do not take any action. When u have tried out then u will know roughly know how to gauge and do your next move and decision to be made.I think ETF is one of the simple way to kick start.

i truly agree to learn first before jumping in... I myself was looking for a quick buck but ended up losing about RM10,000.00 + -. A very expensive tuition fees and still learning... If you are a big boss then it would be ok but am a salaried worker so it hurts big... of course luckily all of it is from Genting Singapore when I got them at 80cents but sold off at 1.20... :)
Do not follow the trend if you truly do not understand... I did and well kinda of got about 10cents + but was kinda of working and didn't see it drop for a few shares and well ended up below cost.... now all disposed of and invested in only Genting Hong Kong :P well shares seems safer than forex but thats just how I think... its up to you to decide but never jump the gun dude.... always learn whatever you can before jumping into anything... Cheers and happy trading in whatever you feel like trading...

I read with horror that you want to trade. My understanding that you are not clear of your stocks details. You might want to reconsider. Source for a good course, understand and paper trade for at least half a year to one year before trading cash.
Many used their hard earned cash for experience.

Is just like any other stock counters traded on the Singapore Exchange. Just go online and browse for S counter and look for STI ETF. You pay the normal trading fees.Good Luck !

I think if the market sentiment is bullish it will be a good time to consider getting this Index Exchange traded fund. Dont need to spend so much time reading up the financial report etc.The stock price will go up if the Stock Market index is up.
Exchange Traded Fund
The easy way to make money from the boom market would be to buy into the index exchange traded fund. If the STI goes up then the exchange traded fund prices would also rise.
