Agenda
What exactly is the stock market? Learn how the market works and some of the key factors you should know to start trading in the equity markets.
Charts are the primary tool of technical analysis—analyzing price trends to gain insight into potential directional moves in the market. But many traders aren’t sure where to start. We’ll break down the basics, so you can make the most of these powerful techniques.
The first step in trading is to identify opportunities that match your outlook, goals, and risk tolerance. We’ll show you a rational and disciplined approach to finding ideas that fit a variety of trading and investing strategies.
Discover how to use charts and buyer/seller balances to time your entry into a trade. Learn how to place a stock and options orders on E*TRADE and look at several profit-seeking strategies for bull markets, including buying stock and trading call options on the stock.
After you place your trade, you have to manage it. Learn how to use price charts to set profit targets and loss limits. We’ll also explore managing trade risk, including how to properly size your trade.
Need help in analyzing when and how to close your trade? Explore strategies for selling your stock and how to use conditional orders to close a trade, including trailing stop orders—all demonstrated on the E*TRADE platform.
Discover some key factors to help you develop a target portfolio and decide on an appropriate allocation for your financial situation. We’ll explore a variety of E*TRADE tools and resources that can help.

Are you considering the impact of taxes on your retirement? Learn how allocating investments across different accounts and asset classes may increase tax efficiency.
Avoid common mistakes! We’ll discuss the impact a beneficiary choice can have on your retirement accounts, how to streamline the estate settlement process for your heirs, and how an IRA can be stretched to provide income to multiple generations.
