Millions of Americans invest their hard-earned dollars in the stock market with the objective of meeting their future financial needs. There are many different approaches to investing in stocks, each of them designed to reduce some of the risk of investing while increasing returns. Every strategy has its advantages and disadvantages. You should try to find the approach best suited to your own financial situation and goals.

Investing strategies can be broken down into two broad categories: technical analysis and fundamental analysis. They are as different as night and day, but each camp has its followers and its critics.

Technical analysis is an attempt to use price charts and other mathematical indicators in order to predict future price movements of a stock.

This means being glued to your computer screen for hours at a session, and can require ample number-crunching skills.
