If you are a greenhorn in the big bad world of bulls and bears, some of the following stock trading tips will give you a head start.
The best stock trading tip is to master the various strategies employed while trading. There are many stock trading strategies that can be used. However, let us discuss a specific strategy, which you may even call the "long & short of stock trading" (pun intended)
As a stock trader, you can either go long or short while trading securities. In layman terms, going long means purchasing a stock at a certain price and holding on to it till its value appreciates and then earning profit by selling it at a higher price.
Short trading is slightly complicated as compared to long trading since the trader does not buy a stock in this strategy but borrows it. After borrowing a stock, the trader sells it at a certain price and then waits for the price to fall further before again buying back the same stock and retuning it to the owner.

Screener.co is entering a closed beta today at the Launch Conference in San Francisco. This new service features advanced stock trading tools similar to many found on Google and Yahoo, but the site offers a broader range and more sophisticated tools then what's available on those sites.

The software tracks 48000 companies' financial information, with the goal being to match the level of information and tools that professional traders get from expensive services like Bloomberg. Screener.co is not designed to give stock advice, just to present the information and let the trader draw their own conclusions. At first brush the software appears highly technical with an overwhelming number of advanced studies and no tutorials in sight. The software will cost $24.95/mo, as opposed to the thousands of dollars that professional trading terminals can cost.
