The world is constantly changing, and how we interact has changed in so many ways in the past few years we don’t fully think about it. For instance, traditional telephone landlines are dying out as most communications are now made on mobile devices.

Sure, we’re still using phones to talk, but they can do so much more. Likewise, how we invest our money has also changed, with many investors switching to online trading.

There are plenty of reasons for this shift, given the benefits of online trading. As long as you know the basics of what a stock is and how to find a stock ticker, you can enter an order and make a trade in a few clicks.
