Investing in Stock Market vs Saving Money in a Bank
investing gives your money the potential to grow faster than it could, compared to Bank savings. If you have a long time until you need to meet your goal, your returns will compound. Basically, this means in addition to a higher rate of return on investments, your investment earnings will also earn money over time, faster than your money in a Bank.
Example 1: BANKING
(With Maintaining balance, Hidden charges, Annual charges, and other fees or penalties.)
You have P5000 as regular savings in BPI (Bank of the Philippines) for a year.
The annual interest as of December, 2021 is only 0.0625%.
That is P3.12 in a year. Are you happy with this P3.12 earning for a year?
So if P3.12 x 5 years = P15.6. Are you happy with this amount in 5 years?
This is NOT a good use for your money in a bank, specially if you have 2 children going to College.
Example 2: INVESTING (USA stocks)
If you invest your P5000 in a stable Stock Market.
If annual gain is 57.02%. That is P2851.00 in a year.
So if P2851.00 x 5 years = P14,255.
The best deal here is, a stable stock market gains more than 57.02% per year.
Example 3: IDEAL INVESTING for stable Stock Market
If you invest your P20,000. (or $400)
If Annual gain is 57.02%. That is P11,404 in a year.
P11,404 x 5 years = P57,020 (or $1142)

Buy in shares — lets you enter a specific number of shares you want to buy up to 9 decimals places. Just make sure that your available funds are enough to buy your desired number of shares. (ex: 1.361515098 shares for AAPL)
Buy at a limit price — this option lets you “schedule” when to buy certain stocks.
Let’s say you want to buy an AAPL share when the market price hits $10. Just enter your target price and click enter. When the market opens, and the market price matches your target price, GoTrade will automatically buy the stocks for you for $10 even when you’re not online.

11). Sell Stocks (when you want to harvest your Long term Income)
To sell your shares, go to the company’s page. Tap Trade. Select Sell.
13). Tap Preview sell and swipe up to confirm your market order.
Again, keep in mind that when you’re selling when the market is open, your order will be executed within minutes. Otherwise, you’ll see a pending status, and your order will be completed on the next business day.
