Hello from down under

Hello all, I have just read rule#1 like everyone else and I am quite excited about getting started paper trading etc. I am actually in Perth Western Australia so I am having a few difficulties finding company info and charts that do for Australian stocks what MSN Money does for the US stocks. I have been reading lots of threads here and I am learning a lot so thankyou to all. If anyone here knows where I can get company info (financials etc) and charts for Australian stocks, please let me know.

Thankyou ahead of time.


Adam:yellowsmile:

Welcome! Sorry, no help here with the Australia thing, but I'm hoping someone else can help you with that.

Welcome. You can find electronic copies of Rule #1 online, just do a search. It's around $10.

Hello Friends

I just read Rule #1 and finished it yesterday. I've been investing on my own for about 15 years. I love the discipline that Rule #1 spells out,:yellowsmile: and I would like to hear the thoughts of others who are following this method. Many thanks for the opportunity to be a part of your growing community. I live in Central Florida where the sun shines brightly !!! Paul
