Beginner Tip: Don’t Start With “Strategies”—Start With Foundation
Most beginners do the opposite:
They chase strategies first… and learn risk later.
That’s why we always recommend this order:
Basics (market + instruments + timing)
Risk management habits
Simple analysis (fundamental/technical)
Discipline + psychology
Then strategies and practice
If you follow this order, your learning becomes faster and safer.

FAQ
1) What are the stock market basics every beginner should know?
Beginners should first understand how the stock market works, what a Demat account is, IPO basics, the difference between trading and investing, and when to use fundamental vs technical analysis. Risk management and mindset are also essential.
2) What is a Demat account and why is it needed?
A Demat account holds your shares electronically. It is required for buying and holding shares in Indian markets through a broker platform.
3) What is the real difference between trading and investing?
Trading focuses on shorter-term price moves and needs strict risk control and execution discipline. Investing focuses on longer-term ownership decisions and usually uses broader research and longer time horizons.
4) Should beginners use fundamental analysis or technical analysis?
Both can be useful. Fundamentals help you understand the business/economics behind an asset, while technical analysis helps you read price structure and timing. Beginners should learn the basics of both and keep the approach simple and structured.
