Invest in
stock Exchange
Investing in the stock market means buying shares in listed companies, ie acquiring ownership shares in companies. In fact, each share represents a part of the capital of the company. The share that a partner holds in the company is proportional to the number of shares of this company that he owns.
You can increase your capital through the appreciation of the shares you own, but also the dividends that some companies pay to their shareholders.
Investing in the stock market means taking advantage of very attractive returns over the long term.
WHICH BROKER TO USE
The main brokers that exist are eToro, Trading 212, Trade Republic.
eToro allows investing in stocks, cryptocurrencies, and many more (but high fees).
Trading 212 is inexpensive and very easy to learn. But they have some breakdowns, and few actions available. Here is my code to get a free action .
Trade Republic has no fees, good ergonomics, simplified documents and taxation.
Here we will use Trade Republic because it is the most complete and easy to use.

MASTER TRADE REPUBLIC
The Home page allows you to have an overview of your portfolio (value of your portfolio), with a graph where you can see the value of your portfolio over the last 24 hours, the week, the month, the year, or even forever. And when we scroll we see the shares or ETFs in which we have invested, then again below we see the favorites that we have added.
The Magnifying Glass tab lets you search for all stocks, ETFs, and derivatives you can buy. You can also sort your search by sectors (energy, vehicles), by country, and by indices (S&P 500, CAP40).
The Order Management tab shows you all your scheduled investment plans in stocks and ETFs. You can create scheduled investment plans there, or modify or delete existing ones.
The avatar at the bottom right provides access to the history of your transactions carried out and your dividends received on Trade Republic. You can also make your Deposit Withdrawal in this tab. And have access to the app settings.
LEARN MORE
Before buying ETFs or shares, here are some criteria to take into account to be sure of your investment:
Diversify your portfolio, invest in what you know. Invest what you are willing to lose. And of course, have a long-term vision.
Do not hesitate to invest in companies with strong dividends (Coke, McDonald's, Disney, Starbucks, Pepsi), or even stocks that have a bright future ahead of them (Amazon, Tesla, LVMH, Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia).
If you cancel an investment plan (to avoid paying fees) don't worry, you won't lose anything you invested and you won't pay anything more.
If you need information here is the official Trade Republic FAQ .
I also put this video if you want more information on Trade Republic which presents the app to you, its operation and its taxation .
