Overview - Ten Simple Steps to Manage Your Own Stock Portfolio the Professional Way

  • We show you in 10 simple steps how professional portfolio managers approach portfolio management for individuals. 
  • Professionals begin with you, not with a list of stocks. There are thousands of great ideas for stocks out there. The challenge is where to start?
  • You have probably seen investment newsletters and stock tip sheets. Many are simply marketing machines - you have to keep paying more to get the really good stuff. Many cite incredible track records based on their "system". But use their systems and try to get the same results - it never seems to happen!
  • No self-respecting professional relies on such sources, except as a second opinion. They do it themselves.
  • www.iCanTrade.com promises you "Professional Power for the Online Investor". And www.iCanTrade.com delivers.
  •  You have no doubt seen many presentations by financial advisors showing you how you can have a diversified portfolio of mutual funds that meets your objectives. And you will pay handsomely for it.
  • But you do not usually pay them. You usually pay the manufacturers of the products - yes, mutual funds are financial products. So you are not really their client. Their real clients are the people who pay them. They have an incentive to keep you in those funds, at least for the first 3 to 5 years. That is their remuneration "sweet spot." That is why so often you never see those results in your portfolio - results that their presentations promised.
  • So many of you have decided to do it yourselves.
  • You have decided to be a self-directed investor using a discount broker. The next thing to do is to choose which stock to buy, right? After all, with over 45,000 stocks to choose from worldwide, there is no shortage of choice.
  • But you suddenly discover that you can't build your portfolio like the pitchman for the mutual funds did: nicely diversified into large cap value, small cap growth, international energy, and so on.  
  • The stocks you research do not come with lables like that. You have to do a lot of work to figure that out.
  • Until now, that is. www.iCanTrade.com does that work for you.
  • You CAN do it yourself.
