FAQ

Some people have asked, Why...
(1) Do we need another Website for trading, investment, technical analysis and the like
Answer
(a) Our Mission Statement presented in "About Us" is the main reason why Kiasutrader was established.
(b) There are currently very few websites that provide both fundamental and technical analysis in the same page. Moreover, some of the Technical Analysis currently available, are full of technical jargon that are not easily understood unless some training had been undertaken by the Reader. Members are assured that all Technical Analysis will be easily understood without any need for technical training. Fundamental analysis provided by a variety of Brokers presenting their point of view, are posted on the same site as Technical Analysis in Kiasutrader.
(c) The Editor have seen many Retailers waste their hard earned savings and wealth based on "tips" and rumours and want to contribute in someway to help the Retailers to know more about the investment and trading and especially the pitfalls of treating the markets like a casino.
(d) Knowing for a fact that "No Man is an Island". the Editor believe that it is only beneficial if a website such as this is setup for the benefit of Traders and Investors to share trades, ideas and technical analysis to better understand the workings of the markets.
