Hi there
I just found this website today by accident. My father has shares in Irish Life and Permanent and i was fishing around to try to find some more information on the company, etc.
This is all very new to me. I attended a talk recently on technical analysis of the stockmarket. The speaker was a very reliable source and he did say to doubt everything you hear and read and that he was only sharing the information that he used to help out. He also recommended that people practice trading on virtual systems and of course he gave no advice.
It was fascinating though and since then i have been studying the whole subject. I have NO experience of investing in shares at all.....as i said my father has some shares but he too knows nothing. They are just shares that his mother bought for him many years ago that he hasn't touched.
I was wondering if, assuming no one minded, i could record what i learned here with a view to having some like minded people to share it all with? Also with the hope that people might be able to explain things that i don't understand....I would pay that forward to the next newbie!
Right now the biggest hurdle to my development seems to be having no one who is interested to talk about all this stuff in my life. When i come across something i don't understand i have to go on searches to try to understand instead of just discussing it with a peer group.
Anyway, let me know what you think. I'm very very interested but a complete novice.
thanks for listening and i look forward to your thoughts
