Active Investor Groups in India

There are some very well maintained and active Groups on stock investing in India which are built by savvy individual investors. It serves as a community of small investors who can share views, news and research reports on stocks.

Some popular groups are:
  1. Association of Indian Individual Investors
  2. EagleEyeTrade Group
  3. SmellTheCheese
  4. Investor Talks
Recently, I came across this thread where the member shares his own story of how he failed to understand the thin line seperating ambition and greed. This guy made money with options and became so confident that he put all his money and his father's retirement corpus into options and lost everything in the market crash of January. Sounds very scary but a lot of learning for novice investors who get attracted by the glamour.

India's first online weekly onpersonal finance

That's very true and hopefully all of us who have not lost too much money in the crash also can learn a lesson
by diversifying our holdings.

Any personal experiences?

I can't just imagine loosing everything. Definitely most of us will remember this example and think twice before making an investment. I would like to read more of your articles so keep writing.
