✅ 1. Start with Education
-
Learn the basics of the stock market, types of trading (intraday, swing, long-term).
-
Understand key terms: buy/sell, stop-loss, target, lot size, margin, etc.
-
Follow reliable sources like NSE, Moneycontrol, or economic news.
✅ 2. Practice with Virtual Trading
-
Use demo accounts or stock market simulators to practice without real money.
-
Platforms like TradingView, Zerodha Varsity, or Moneybhai are helpful.
✅ 3. Start Small
-
Invest only the amount you can afford to lose in the beginning.
-
Avoid taking high risks or large positions without experience.
✅ 4. Use Stop-Loss Always
-
A stop-loss protects you from big losses.
-
Decide your risk per trade (e.g., 1–2%) and never let emotions take over.
✅ 5. Avoid Overtrading
-
Don’t trade too frequently or under pressure.
-
Focus on quality trades with a plan, not quantity.
