How does a guy get into buying stocks on your own? Is there a certain site you sign up with? What about all this Dogecoin talk. How do you trade that?
I am no financial genius but wonder if I should be trying something on my own, in small steps of course. Get my feet wet and see how it goes..

I've traditionally used RBC direct investing but opened a wealthsimple account last week, very easy to set up a TFSA and no commission on trades, RBC is $9.98 each buy and sell. so far I'm liking the wealthsimple platform.

I would recommend CEO.CA and follow Doc Jones smartest man when investing in resource sector.

B.V. Bcm resources Corp. i’ve been in this thing for 15 years. They are about to drill in three weeks in Nevada and they’re going to hit a mine bigger than Bingham canyon. If they don’t it’ll be a very big miss. Some of the best geologists in the world are in on this and funding it.

Zeus - Olympic Steel Inc. has been up and down but in the few weeks since I started it has been rising, they had the best first quarter and lets see how second goes. In for the long haul.
NVAX - Novavax Inc. Did crash a few months ago but is now on the rise

SU - Suncor, holding and slowly rising

CVE - Cenovus Energy Corp, holding and slowly rising

I held nvida, sold it because it did nothing, now it's moving. Took some profit from AMC today.
Might want to buy some lennox, new fed green home program.

Were you hit with that service outage as well? Seems all day my app wasn’t working worth crap. Good thing I wasn’t trying to sell anything. Couldn’t send an etransfer though which also sucked.

Want a gamble. BCM resources Corp is drilling starting today. They are pretty sure they have a porphyry of copper and gold. If the results prove that the stock will go from $.20 to the moon. More than likely the claim will be sold and the shareholders will be rewarded. If the mother load is found this claim will be worth tens of billions

I'm always leery of miners

Sold some AMC at open, market price dropped from 62 to 52 only for the very minute I sold and then back to 62.
Still learning. Down to 48 now...
