Whats the best way to learn how to play the stock market?

I want to know the difference between penny stocks, and big money stocks. I wanna know the difference between all the companies, and I want to be able to confidently look at a stock and predict its value. I want to know HOW to buy!
I also want to know the different ways to buy. Whats a hedge? whats a bond? whats a margin?
I've heard all these terms, but I dont know much of anything.
I've bought stock market for dummies, and even THAT book starts out with the assumption that you know a little bit to begin with.
I just wish there was a guide that was absolutely step by step.
Can someone help me and direct me to the best place to learn the stock market?

You have asked a lot of questions. Let me try to answer some of them for you.

1. Penny stocks are basically stocks with a market price less than $1. They are smaller companies, often in the resources industry, which are hoping to "strike it rich" by a new discovery or similar. However, you can make a good profits in terms of a percentage on risk, because a price move from say, 20 cents to 25 cents is a 25 percent profit. On a $20 stock you would need a $5 move to achieve the same result. But penny stocks also carry greater risk - and a move downwards can hurt you as much as a move upwards.

2. Big money stocks - not sure what you have in mind here, but I'm assuming you may be referring to "blue chip" stocks. These would be well established companies such as those that make up the Dow Jones index - 30 larger companies whose daily stock price is averaged to form the index value.
If you are only trading shares on these stocks, they are a good INVESTMENT for the long term, but if you want to TRADE on a short term basis to make cash flow, it's not so simple. You would either need a lot of capital to make an income-like cash flow, OR start using derivatives such as options. Option Trading can be a very safe and effective way to replace your income using the big money stocks.

3. A hedge is where you offset the risk on one investment by another investment which will make the same amount of profit, should your original investment lose money. For example, you might buy XYZ company at $35 per share. You may have done this purely to receive dividend income but you want to protect it from capital loss. So you sell a futures contract at $35 or sell $35 'contracts for difference' (CFDs) to the market. If XYZ falls to $28 then your "sold" futures contract makes $7 profit to offset the $7 loss on your shares. Think of it as a form of insurance. You can do the same with options.

4. A margin is the amount a broker or market maker will lend you, to make up the difference between the total value of your share investment and the amount you invest. Let's say your margin is 50 percent. This means the finance company will lend you "the same again" so that you can buy twice as many shares as if you only used your own money. The finance company will use the shares you were able to buy as collateral for the loan. Because of this security, you can get one of these types of loans even if you're bankrupt. But if your share price drops below a certain amount so that your collateral is at risk, you may get a "margin call" from your broker.

5. One of the best ways to determine future price action for a stock is to learn how to read charts. You will observe reliable price patterns which will enable you to make good trading decisions. If you combine this knowledge with what you can do with options, you can make some really good money, because options have leverage, which basically means you can increase your profits tenfold for the same amount of risk.

Hope this helps.

Wing Chun Wooden Dummy

Wing Chun wooden dummy, also called as muk yan jong, represents an arm and leg pattern designed to simultaneously develop fighting skill and chi in Wing Chun. The Hong Kong version (new version) of the wooden dummy is a wall mounted version of the original, which were placed in the ground. The Hong Kong wooden dummy is wall mounted using two wooden slabs piercing through the body of the wooden dummy. The new version of the Wing Chun wooden dummy was invented by Yip Man and was redesigned to fit the needs of apartment living. The new version of the Wing Chun wooden dummy has only three arms and a leg. They represent the body of an opponent in different positions and lines of energy that it can give out. The wood base in which the dummy is mounted has springiness similar to the actual reaction of an opponent when attacked. This gives the Wing Chun dummy user to practice absorbing energy in his stance. The new version of the Wing Chun wooden dummy is called a "live dummy" because of its ability to react like a live opponent while the old version is called a dead dummy because of its immobility.



Benefits of training Wing Chun with a wooden dummy are;


• Allows you to train even without a live partner.

Charlie Mccarthy Ventriloquist Dummy

[simpleaffiliate source="chitika" results="0"][/simpleaffiliate]

How Old Time Radio Became the Medium of Choice for a Ventriloquist

It may seem hard to believe that a ventriloquist could make a successful career out of a radio show, but incredibly the Edgar Bergen/Charlie McCarthy Show was a massive hit due to the comedic timing and talent of Edgar Bergen.

Bergen was born in 1903 and learned the art of ventriloquism at a young age. Edgar commissioned the creation of a dummy from a local craftsman and gave him the name Charlie McCarthy and the cheeky personality of a boy and womanizer who was able to get away with double entendre.

Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy first became a duo when they appeared on talent shows in the Midwest while Bergen was still at college in Northwestern. Eventually he left school and began to perform his act full-time.

In the 1930s he performed in New York and even toured Europe and South America with his show, but slowly vaudeville lost popularity due to new forms of media such as film and radio.

Radio wasn't the obvious choice for a ventriloquist, but Bergen didn't let that put him off. In the mid 1930s Bergen and his dummy made an appearance on the Royal Gelatin Hour on NBC. As odd as it seemed to have a ventriloquist on the radio, his humor and wit made him a fan favorite instantly.

In 1937 he was rewarded with his own spot, The Edgar Bergen/Charlie McCarthy Show, on NBC, which became an overnight success. The show was so popular that it ran on various networks until 1956.

In the first year of the show, Bergen was involved in a controversy while performing the Mae West 'Adam and Eve' skit. He made remarks that were considered inappropriate, which brought unwanted attention from the Federal Communications Commission in 1938. However, the controversy passed and the show gained even more popularity.

Over the years, Edgar added more characters to his act. The most famous of these were the man-eating Effie Klinkerthe and the slow-witted but loveable Mortimer Snerd. While one would normally consider a ventriloquist act dependent on visualization, the show continued to be popular on the radio and although it would seem a natural progression he did very few television performances.

In the late 1970s, Bergen decided to retire and he donated Charlie to the Smithsonian Institute. A week later he passed away after performing in a show with Andy Williams.

Today, Charlie and two other puppets, Mortimer Snerd and Effie Klinker, are on display at the Radio Hall of Fame and Museum in Chicago and in 1990 The Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy Show was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame.
