I have a friend who invested in forex exchange. She gets to learn on how to trade on her own. She learn it from the internet because it is not taught in school. She learned about the technical analysis but not the fundamental analysis because it is not easy to make a research about the status of the country which drives the trend of the currency of that country. But she loss a lot becuase the analysis won't always hit. Now she decided to shift to stock market. She said forex is so volatile compared to forex. what do you think? Is forex safe compared to stock market? OMP, putting up a business is more safe than investing in stock market or forex. What do you think?

That's right. Investing in stock market is tempting but I don't want to try. I am not good at it and and I dont want to waste money jus to try. Putting up a business is good than stock market. You will get to count your profits daily.

@eliza_godinez12 putting up a business is more risky sometimes too. opening shop can be easy but selling the products is harder. so it all depends on timing. if you know a stick thaat gives dividend then you may want to try that.

I don't know anything about forexz and you must be very careful investing in the stock market. Choose a reliable company and stick with it.

What she did, she buy stocks that are on lower price then sell them even if the price difference is not that big. She is not into long term trading. She is afraid that the companys financial stability might go down. Have you tried investing in any form?

For me, it depends on your preference. Either both has a risk but forex is a bit risky as compared to stock market I guess. I am a forex trader and I can say that it is too risky if someone invest it without knowing how to trade and to analyze charts. If I were to choose, I would still go to forex trading as I see a lot of earning potential in there.
