Thanks. I’m a new investor with Schwab. I liked your video because you explained about “market “ and “limit orders “. A stock I was into for $1K dived to almost what I bought at. I didn’t know how to sell so I sold with a Day and market setting. It told me what I was selling for so I pulled the trigger and still came out $35 more than I went into it for and didn’t lose any money.
I have a need to know what all the different types or parameters of buying and selling are. I used day and market for buying both of my positions but think the limit scenario is super useful especially with selling. Now that I bought and sold I feel more confident. Thanks. I liked your vid and subscribed.

Still doing my research on investing. I screwed the pooch when I first opened an account with TD Ameritrade. Little did I know. I was buying stocks on borrowed money. Called Margin trading. Lesson learned. Im not yet recouped but in do time. Luckily I can pay off what is owed if needed. Thanks for the vids.

Thanks Ryan! I truly appreciate all the videos you are making... Just want to ask would you do same videos for other brokers like fidelity or vanguard?

Thanks for the video. Just started playing with my brokerage account with Schwab. I have some slices and full shares. The app is really easy to use.

Thanks for your video. I’ve been looking for a Charles Schwab for beginners trying to get familiar with their platform. Gotta start somewhere. Once again, thank you.

Love your site but needs updated for Charles Schwab screen stock market for beginners! Site is confusing because it needs updated!!!

So instead of buying by the share, is there a way to buy a stock by how much one has to spend? So, if i have 35 dollars to spend, but the stock is 5.50, i have to do the math, figure out that i want 6.363636363636364 shares??? There is no way to just buy by the dollar-to-spend rather than number of shares?

I use fidelity investments they aren’t like webull and robinhood with free stocks the stock investing isn’t supposed to be free to start to me getting free stocks from the two apps I mentioned it takes away the effort to growing and making the portfolio with stock(s) you can choose instead of a random selection but other’s have their options and I’m saying my opinion about webull and robinhood

[grbloved]

Ryan ? I’m new at investing - what’s the difference between C.Schwab vs Fidelity or Vanguard? Can you make a video on that ? Thanks 😊

[BradSnyder-nk]

Thank you, exactly what I was looking for.

[tiamelancholyjeoncockity]

I’m watching this with a literal $12 in my account on CS that have gone thru recently 😭💀 no idea how to buy without having to buy one whole stock that’s around $100+

Is the longest duration 60 days? Is there no actual good till cancelled?

Schwab will be adding Thinkorswim next year as TD Ameritrade accounts are rolled over into Schwab, which is a great trading software.
Also know Schwab has brokers on the line 24/7. Free to talk to. There is a charge for placing a trade through the broker, but they'll also walk you through it online for free.
Schwab also has a lot of material and tools on their website once you login.

Please make a video on how to trade stock dividends, how to know dividends day (payouts) for instance you buy ATT shares 1 week or days before dividends and sell them later
