In the beginning of 2008 I had to learn to look for signs that I never really had to before and because of that I took a beaten during that time. I started to seek out sites and tools to assist me with the education that was needed to recover from my losses.Frankly, I felt like a beginner investing in the stock market all over again. Over the next few months I worked hard to find the right tools and of course with so many of them out there, It took awhile to find the one that helped me the best.

One that I found myself going back to time and time again was ADVFN. Their site had pretty much everything that I could have found on several different sites, but they had it all in one place.

ADVFN offers a FREE service for anyone who wants to trade stocks, bonds, futures, as well as FOREX. Their site helps traders with research, technical analysis, charts along with a large community of traders on their message boards to assist you in making the right decisions. ADVFN is the one of the worlds largest stocks and shares websites. Offering the private investor FREE streaming prices from NASDAQ, NYSE, Dow Jones and many more indices from around the world.

Included in their FREE membership is a steady flow of press releases of the day. Hundreds of news releases every hour to keep you informed of what’s going on in the stock market world. The news is reported on all stocks that are traded on any trade floor including foreign and pink sheets.

I’ve been using this site for some time now and the longer I use it and the more I poke around on the site and see what the FREE membership offers me, the quicker and more thorough my research is being done.

The streamer that is part of the FREE service is 15 minutes time-delayed and you can upgrade your service to include real-time streamer, but if you have an account with a online broker, it doesn’t matter.

If you are looking for a better way to get your information and make better trades then why not give this FREE service a try. Just click on the banner below (or the one that’s in in right sidebar).
