hello guys and welcome back to another video now in today's video we're going to talk about etoro
which is one of the leading trading platforms anywhere in the world obviously nothing i talk
about on this channel is financial advice so always go away and do your own research
before investing any of your own money without further ado let's jump into today's video now
in the past investing in things like this wasn't really open to many people it was more just done
on wall street in places like london japan and other places around the world by big banks etc and
it started to open up to ordinary people around the world later on and it's thanks to platforms
like etoro which we can see here guys as always link down below in the description which allow
people to not only place trades and follow other people's trades but to basically access markets
and different groups of investors around the world so you can see here we can sign up connect invest
grow your knowledge with etoro the world's leading social investment community it basically made its
name by allowing traders to copy trades of other successful traders and then start to
understand a little bit more about the markets and gain experience while still earning good
returns on their investments now here you can see diversified portfolios and it talks about
all the different things you can get involved in from finance to sort of crypto here we've got
sports like manchester united and other things available and you can enjoy things like zero
percent commission uh you can also buy crypto which has been obviously more of a more recent
thing but as crypto enters the limelight obviously more and more people are interested in trading
cryptocurrency but it can be a bit daunting if you don't already know how to get involved and you can
see that there's not just you know the bitcoins and the ethereums of this world but up to 60
or more different cryptocurrencies so you're probably more than likely going to find your
favorite cryptocurrencies to trade here as well as that they offer a variety of etfs
so you can go and enjoy safer more sustainable investment opportunities in perhaps slightly
less volatile markets now what i like as a trader myself i spend quite a lot of time on my own
obviously i personally don't mind it but if you're interested in trading it can be quite nice to
talk to other people around the world and find out a little bit more about investment opportunities
it can be quite a worrying thing if you've never done it before but basically investing
is one of the smartest things you can do because ultimately over time your money if it's down
in banks particularly right now despite recent interest rate rises you're not really going to
make any significant returns and because the rate of inflation is far bigger than interest you're
gonna have to look outside and diversify the way in which you hold money if you want that money
to start working for you now one of the things i mentioned earlier was the copy
trading and basically how that works is you can go and select a trader who's already successful
you can see all their statistics et cetera and they benefit from that because obviously they
make money when people are following them in a sort of a small percentage return but ultimately
by following these traders you can then expect to see some of the same returns that they have
and some of them might have you know 30 40 maybe even more percentage returns in a 12-month period
which if you're new to trading is exceptionally high and even without learning how to trade
you can start to benefit from the same levels of success that they are seeing
here is talking about smart portfolios invest in the future you believe in with the thematic
investment strategies offering diversified exposure to the market segments that will shape
our lives now that might sound a little bit confusing but let's say i think that the future
is really bright for amazon obviously amazon's done already very well well yeah i might invest
in amazon but then i'm completely at the risk of what happens to amazon by diversifying my
portfolio into perhaps a number of related shares in that particular space so maybe we're talking
google other firms that maybe support the shipping other firms that maybe look into creating ai
and sort of the development of the amazon platform then i can start to see how i might be able to
benefit from a number of different areas and not putting all my eggs in one basket which always
is my best advice for anyone because no matter how good an investment opportunity sounds it can
always go against us but diversifying means that we usually get caught up and saved by
other assets that might be outperforming the ones that you were thinking about going all in
on and you can see it's already available in over 100 countries mainly because it's got a
lot of budget guys because it's a very big company you've probably seen it being featured on youtube
tv ads much much more social more than 25 million users globally obviously pretty substantial
reliable regulated by various authorities around the world and secured utilizing top-tier security
practices global providing services around the world reliable now i want to come back to
that regulation part now crypto itself if you're interested in cryptocurrency then actually is kind
of in a process of becoming more regulated but still lots of areas are not regulated which is why
we've seen recent problems with things like ust and the lunar collapse but by being regulated it
kind of safeguards you against things like that happening it safeguards you against companies
taking your money away and just disappearing which has happened in the past so if you're
kind of reluctant to get into crypto because you think it's a bit more risky yes trading the assets
can be risky but it's the safest place to do it is in regulated platforms like etoro now you can
see there's loads and loads of different features on this website and i'm not going to go into all
of them because there's probably going to be way too much to be talking about but things are really
focusing on right now if you're new to trading and you don't really understand how trading all works
what you should be doing is getting into a demo account which means you can trade as if you're
trading with real money but actually it doesn't mean anything because if you lose it you're not
actually going to lose anything but that allows you to practice and understand how everything's
working before you're using the real money which is obviously a fantastic thing you can see they've
already got a number of different things here from trading markets on etoro trading platforms cryptos
cfd trading and much much more you can see that the trading platform itself is available on
a telephone app as well as on desktop so you can also trade over 3 000 assets there's loads
of information and research available from all the different people involved in the platform
as well as many experts hired by the platform there's low fees and there's also ready made
smart portfolio so you might find a portfolio that you're interested in that's been created by an
expert with a good level of balance remember what i talked about earlier not putting all your eggs
in one basket which is a great place to look and here you know in terms of deposit and withdrawal
fees they're pretty low fees but they will tell you everything in the website about how much it's
all going to cost and everything is transparent no hidden costs or hidden things that you should be
worried about now i talked about already investing and using copy traders there's another one here
that is really interesting to me as someone who's very interested in crypto and that's
staking crypto so that means that you can hold crypto in a platform and not only just hold it
and wait for the price to potentially go up or maybe even down then you're looking for crypto
to start to build itself so what that means is basically i'm gonna put in let's say some bitcoin
and they're gonna reward me for holding my bitcoin there and saying that i'm gonna keep it there
for one to maybe two weeks or maybe more and i'm gonna earn a reward on that paid in bitcoin
so right now if you think i put in a thousand dollars worth of bitcoin then yeah if bitcoin
goes up five x that thousand dollars is now worth five thousand dollars but if i'm running an
interest paid in bitcoin on that thousand dollars let's say 10 i'm now going to have 1 100 which
in a year let's say it goes to 5x is going to be worth 5 500 so i've made 500 on my initial 1 000
investment as well as the increase from thousand dollars to 5 000 obviously they also offer things
like investment insurance which if you're new to trading et cetera is very handy because obviously
lots of markets are volatile especially right now the market's about to be very volatile in
my opinion we're having lots of changes going on around the world and we could be entering a very
volatile and uncertain period of time in the markets and in terms of the top markets that
are available guys your cryptocurrencies stocks commodities like gold silver etc
currencies like foreign exchange and kind of all other kind of markets that don't necessarily fit
under those categories got education which is awesome you've got news and analysis of things
that are happening right now so potential setups and potential trades that you might be wanting to
take but also an academy where you can go through various different courses and you can join up with
the ball club which is a group of other investors around the world and you can learn more about what
they're all doing and bounce ideas off each other which is another really nice thing and a great
way to not only interact with other communities around the world but also potentially benefit
from that financially so in summary etoro is one of the largest investment platforms for retailers
anywhere in the world if you want to get involved in trading then it's probably one of the best
places to start one because it's regulated and it means that you're not going to get caught out
in any rug pools or any other problems that are happening in crypto and other areas right now
but you've got the opportunity to learn from other traders around the world and share your
ideas as well as learn from their ideas there's an academy so you can continue to learn more
about investments not only in crypto but in stocks commodities and much much more there's
opportunities where you can do copy trading where if you don't have the time to trade yourself that
you can follow already successful traders and benefit from their success all of these things
can be accessed through the app which is already highly rated as well as through your desktop so
you'll never be away from the opportunity to make trades and follow successful traders etc
