How To Invest In ETFs: Step-by-Step For Beginners

Buying of just any ETFs is easy, but buying the right one without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence which is best to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $260K for sometime now, my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategies.

Can you buy fractional shares with M1?

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) are investment funds that are traded on stock exchanges, much like individual stocks. They are designed to track the performance of a specific index, commodity, bond, or a basket of assets. ETFs offer investors a way to gain exposure to a diversified portfolio of assets without having to buy each security individually.

It's not step by step investment to etf....I don't understand why you want to create pi chart and break your investment and bla and bla....dude you made focused video on your app instead showing begineer different trades off and expense ration on etf....

Incredible video! Than you for the information

This may seem too simple of a question...since I have never invested in any of this... How do you know when you've made a profit... and... at what point and how can you take profits out???

how do you withdrawal from ur brokerage account when you are ready to?

"Now imagine for a second that he brought three baskets with him instead of just one, but on the way home, he dropped and still broke everything LMFAO"

How much money do u invest in though?

Damn u fine 😍

3 minutes in already interested other videos like this I turn off immediately

I had Schwab&I didn’t like how complicated they made it. M1 is so easy. I’m gonna invest 540 a month every month till I’m 60 that’s like 30 years. Should retire wit a nice bag. Ima put 300 inna brokerage retirement account

I’m a finance student, one of my professors’ advice is to invest in ETF’s and mutual funds until you hit about $50K then if you feel like you’ve got a grasp on how to invest in individual securities after that, then branch off and diversify your portfolio further. But never just up and buy individual stocks when you first start out.

Thanks a lot for this info, it was really helpful.

How do you choose the amount that you want to invest. You said it autmatically would buy the etf but ow does it know how much you can afford to spend?

30 seconds in- you earned a like and a follow. Thank you for being straightforward and not gimmicky

Great video ❤

What're your thoughts on a good ETF that you would hold to go along with QQQ in an IRA? I still have a long way to go. Don't mind risk. But is there an etf in here you like in addition to QQQ that covers different sectors?.

Hey Josh, thanks for sharing this. I wonder what mic are you using on this video?

When you invest do I need to buy once a month or a one time thing

Great video! Quick question, what's a fair good rule of thumb expense ratio amount when purchasing versus calculating what will your projected earnings will be like? What should I be looking and seeing for when buying?

Could I set it through Acorn and E-Trade?

ETFs are considered to be low-risk investments because they are low-cost and hold a basket of stocks or other securities, increasing diversification. For most individual investors, ETFs represent an ideal type of asset with which to build a diversified portfolio.

I've been considering buying ETFs/SCHD stocks for retirement, I have set asides $100k but somewhere along the line, I get cold feet maybe because I'm a rookie and have no idea what I'm doing, please I could really use some guideline

What are the alternatives to M1?

The program is not free, it only gives you 3 months for free

Am a Ghanaian and I tried using your app and it seems my country is not allowed. What app can we use

thank you! you are awesome.

thanks for the video , but you did not mention any payment methods !!!!

Is M1 only accessible to certain geographical locations? Not able to add my phone number from a Pacific island nation.

Thank you for the video. Im still learning about trading and investments.
When it comes to trading do you recommend a cash or margin account? And for investing do you recommend ETFs vs Stocks with Dividends for beginners?
Can someone start with just a USD 100? I'm not in the US and I have a goal for 1 yr. Thank you.

This is my advice to anyone interested, whatever you do in the market better work with a plan but if you find it hard navigating then seek help, I clumsily lost over 5 grand in a month but that's how I learnt my lesson

Please for someone in Nigeria which apps do you suggest for them for investing in ETF and please am a beginner which ETF do you also advise I get

Does the app tell you the percentage rate your going to get over the time?
