Learn the mechanics before risking money.
Start with the basics
The homepage describes free stock market classes, app training and online or offline support. Ask Wealth Score to confirm the current format, schedule and eligibility.
A useful introduction covers accounts, order types, market hours, statements and the difference between investing and trading.
Learn to evaluate risk
Understand volatility, concentration, liquidity and the effect of leverage. Practise reading a company's disclosures and the documentation of a fund or ETF.
Educational material is not a promise of profitable trades. Avoid copying a strategy without understanding the loss it can create.
Prepare your questions
Ask how charges are calculated, where account records are stored and how to recognise an unauthorised request. Never share a password or OTP with someone offering training.
Confirm what the class includes and what it does not. Paid services or product purchases should be stated separately, not assumed.
