ERX is a new stock exchange reaping with benefits and rewards to the investors. It boosts 100s of stocks for people to purchase including ones like t'jelle Bank, 10X Dementu Club, VIP Corporation and a lot more. But to the average person it can get frustrating to figure out how to sell or buy. This guide will go over that and maybe make you eRepublk’s first millionaire.

When you first see the ERX web-page you get a bunch of reasons why you should invest on ERX. How it can offer benefits to Organizations and Citizens and help both sides. Upon visiting this page you have to register through eRepublik API, which is a very safe & secure system. You will be asked to put in your username and password through eRepublik servers, so don't worry about getting scammed. Once you have done that, you set a password for yourself, transfer gold to ERX and voila! You are now ready to invest and seek riches.

There are a few vocabulary words you must understand before investing. Org Value are the Organization's total assets like companies, licenses, stock etc. Market Cap is shares available x current Share Value. Basically the lower it is the better it is to invest and the higher the better to sell. Volume is one of the most important factors you have to consider when investing. Volume is the amount of shares that have been traded in the last twenty-four hours x 2(sold and bought). Volume is very important, because if there is no Volume, then there is nobody buying or selling shares. Dividends are also very important and mean a percentage of gold paid out to shareholders from total profit. Reinvestment means how much the corporation is going to spend on expansion and Maintenance Fees are the wages for the CEO, marketing etc.

Now that you have registered on ERX you are able to purchase, sell shares, view stocks, or even list your own organization. But wait there are quite a few things you must learn to do before investing. First of all things to do is you have to consider the corporation.
Ask yourself the following questions before investing:

How big is the Market Cap in relevance to Org Value?
How much experience does the CEO have?
What are the plans for the future?
What is the rate for Dividends?
Did the Org Value increase?
What's the Volume?

If you have a good answers for all these questions then the chances are it will be a good investment.

But before investing you have to know the business plan of the corporation. The plan of the corporation tells you where their money goes. A simple business plan would be 40% Dividends, 50% Reinvestment, and 10% for Maintenance Fees. If a company offers Dividends at 80%, then they will not be expanding as quickly as they could. In the end Dividends < Reinvestment, when the corporation invests in something increasing its assets the Share Value will grow, thus making the shares you hold worth more. Then they get even more money from their Reinvestment then they would handing out dividends. If a corporation makes 100g one month and has 100% Reinvestment then they increase their assets and holdings making your shares have a higher value. Generally the rule of thumb is for every 100g your corporation owns in assets there should be at LEAST 1g daily in profits. So a Corporation worth 1000g should make 10g daily.

For example you have the choice of investing in two corporations and they are both worth 600g. One has a business plan of 20% Dividends and 80% Reinvestment and the other has 100% Reinvestment. Using the rule of thumb they should both make at least 6g daily which is 180g every 30 days. Now the first corporation would deal 36g to its shareholders and the second would deal none. The first corporation gains 144g in assets and moves to be worth 744g while the other is now worth 780g. Now the next month the first corporation earns 7.4g daily to about 222g profit that month. The other makes 234g that month. In the end it is all about considering the business plan of the corporations and whether you want Dividends back or your share value to increase more.
However large cooperations dealing 80%-100% Dividends are also a very good investment. Some of them like DCM deal more than 20% a month on your investment, which is 3 times more than you would get at any bank and you will have your investment back in just over 4 months plus the additional Share Gain.

Then you have to consider the approach you are going to take towards investing. There are two very common investment procedures that people make. One is long-term investing and the other is day trading. Long term investing is when you invest in corporations that are stable, communicative, realistic, give out good Dividends and a nice business plan for a long period of time. They must be stable as you still want them around months from now. Communicative is good as communication is needed to know what your Corporation is doing. Realistic is an important attribute to have as you do not want to invest in a Q1 Company that wants to be worth 5000g as you need to be Realistic in your doings. Corporations do gain though, but you have to be realistic as it takes time, it is not instant at all.

Day Trading is selling and purchasing shares quickly. The basic process is buying shares when they are low waiting either a day or a few days for an increase then selling right then. It is riskier and harder to do as it requires constant checking of the stock market. Usually day traders wait until a stock increases by 5% or so then sells and constantly moves on to another. But be warned as stated above it is risky and hard to do.

Now that you have read this extensive guide just remember to take it slow at first. Going to fast in the market will make you lose your money. On your first few steps as an investors take your time to follow the market and choose which stocks will give you the highest return. The stock exchange is very complex and hard to follow but with experience you can master it in no time.
