One of the biggest mistakes new investors make is diving into investments without proper research. Before you invest your hard-earned money, take the time to understand the companies or assets you’re interested in. Avoid making decisions based on tips or rumors; instead, do your due diligence. Research the financial health, performance history, and future prospects of the investments you’re considering. This knowledge will empower you to make informed choices and reduce the risk of potential losses. KTrade also provides you with weekly stock picks so that when you do choose stocks to trade, you can be sure you are making the right decision.

You’ve done everything – downloaded the app, deposited the money, and given all the documents. All that is left is to trade. But how would you know which stocks to buy and when to sell them?

Using both fundamental and technical analysis techniques, we’ll show you how to understand these methods to help you make smarter investment choices using the KTrade Securities app.

Investing can be a daunting task, but the first place to start is by gaining control over your finances. By tracking and managing your money effectively, you lay a strong foundation for future financial success.

A popular budgeting rule, the 50-30-20 Rule, provides a framework for allocating your monthly income. This rule can be applied to virtually any income bracket, which is why it’s a great place for anyone to start. Allocate 50% of your income to cover essential expenses like rent, school fees, and food. Devote 30% towards non-essential but desired expenses such as travel and dining out. The remaining 20% should be saved for future goals and investments! Simple enough, right?

Investing can be overwhelming and confusing. At KTrade Securities, we understand the challenges faced by new investors, and that’s why in this blog, we will explore five different investment avenues: stocks, savings certificates, mutual funds, real estate, and gold. By understanding the risks and benefits associated with each avenue, you can make informed investment decisions aligned with your financial goals and risk tolerance. We also have a series on YouTube called Investing For Beginners, which you can watch here.

Stocks represent ownership in a company and can be traded on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). When you invest in stocks, you become a shareholder and participate in the company’s performance. So, if the company performs well in the stock market, you could profit, but if it does not, you could suffer a loss. While stocks offer the potential for high returns, they also come with high risks. It is crucial to select the right companies to invest in and stay updated with their financial performance. KTrade Securities has an app where you can trade stocks, offering liquidity and opportunities for investors with surplus cash and savings. We also regularly recommend stocks to invest in every week, which you can check out here.

So let’s go through it together.

While the federal budget can be complex, it is crucial for citizens to comprehend its implications for their lives. If you want to watch our video on the impact of the federal budget, click here.
