Pamir is a very ambitious young man who has just started working for his dream company. He is a 23 years old software engineer that graduated from one of the top universities in the city. He has always been careful with his money and has loved keeping savings account in a bank. Recently, after years of saving his money when he was a student, he thought that maybe it is the time that he starts investing and working his money. However, he has no idea what to do and where to start. Even though, he knows how to save some money he never understood how people makes profit by trading. He has heard a trading platform where it is easy to trade and very convenient to use, so he decides to give it a go and starts using tradeMe. He is mainly interested in buying and selling stocks. After checking out the tradeMe for over an hour and reading some articles and viewing some economic events, he decides to sign up as a basic user in order to understand ins and outs of financial trading.
