I have been trying to understand the stock market for quite some time, but every video I have watched uses a lot of terminology that I am not familiar with. This video was great, you explained everything clearly for someone like me who is a beginner. I love all the examples and I am especially glad I finally understand limits and their pros and cons.

I am only 17 and really trying to learn more about this. This is a great video so I will continue watching your videos and gaining more knowledge on stocks! Thanks for video!

Update: I forgot i made this comment lol, and i didnt even know it got this much attention! I am now 21 years old I have gained much more knowledge about the stock market and I have been investing for about 8 months! I’ve made many profits and have many long term investments. Wow I just want to say that I’m thankful for people like you putting the knowledge out for others to see. I’m actually trying to have a group and teach others this information for free because I think knowledge about this should be free for everyone! Thanks !
