Are you bored of reading rags to riches stories of people who have earned millions through stock market because you want to see yourself in that paper column? Well, who isn't? We all have ambitions to become rich and famous (and that too quickly!!!!!). But in order to convert dreams to reality, you need a proper way. Some of the important tricks of the trade are listed below which would enable you to make money online.

Before you start trading online, you would require a computer and an internet connection. You also need to open an online account with one of the online brokerage houses (like E*Trade, TD Ameritrade).

Now that you have a computer and an internet we can start with some important tips:

1. When you register with a broker online, he would provide you with various information's like price quotes, charts, technical analysis etc. A basic knowledge and understanding of charts is important as it would enable you to earn greater profits.

2. If you are a beginner then you must look for a broker that charges you smaller commission. In order to make use of the expensive brokerage services you first need to upgrade your own level of understanding of the stock market.

3. When a market is going through a bullish phase then it's hard to loose money, but if you are a long term investor then you must also know which stocks to buy when the market is down. You must not only concentrate on technical analysis, but also give due importance to fundamentals of a company. Knowledge about a company's balance sheet is of great importance. There are various numbers which you must also learn to use like P/E ratios, BETA no. before investing in a company you must also take in consideration to the industry you are investing.

4. When you sit in front of your computer and you see the value of share go up and down, it's a whole new feeling altogether. A beginner becomes an expert when he has control over his /her nerves. When he knows when to buy and sell. This is a hard thing to master and there is no substitute to experience in the stock market. Like wine it's always true that an investor reaches its prime as he gains experience.

5. When the stock market is moving up and down, you would be loaded with loads of information coming from media, internet, your online broker etc. but the most important thing is to know which information to use and when. A delay in decision making can cost you heavily. So you must be certain whether you want to buy or sell.
