✅ PERA (Personal Equity and Retirement Account)

A long-term retirement investment with potential tax benefits.

Take time to review:

  • Company profiles

  • Historical performance

  • Risk level

  • Market conditions


Step 7: Place Your First Trade

To buy a stock:

  1. Search for the company ticker symbol.

  2. Tap Buy.

Your order may be executed instantly (market order) or once your target price is reached (limit order).


Step 8: Monitor and Manage Your Investments

After purchasing:

  • Track your portfolio performance.

  • Review market updates.

  • Avoid emotional decision-making.

  • Consider long-term strategies instead of short-term speculation.
