The best way to invest money in stock market is to trade Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). This is because ETFs spread risks across other stocks, pay dividends, are less noisy, not very prone to rumors and manipulations. Most ETFs options are spread at workable intervals for spread strategies, and above all, ETFs trades are easily predictable by using the broad market indices.

I've found the best way for me is to trade mutual funds or ETFs and hold them for 1 to 3 months. Generally this can give you a return that beats holding an index fund, but will have less downside risk in most markets. One example is the fund trading system outlined in this hub

At present my investment resources are all in alternative sectors of the economy. Primarily, research, development, and implementation of new technologies stemming from evidence in quantum mechanics.

Read about the financial report of the company, see how much profit it has made.
Research about the company what actually it makes, what is the future growth in it.
Make a list of 5 or 6 companies like that.
Buy them when price is down and sell them when it is up.
I recommend you buy warren buffet book regarding share market.

Investing in the market requires that the one who wants to invest fully educate themselves so that they can figure out their individual risk tolerance and objectives. Some people by nature are extremely cautious with money, while in other aspects of life are far more liberal.
It really is unique to each person. Luckily the internet has made it far easier to find decent information for free, and learn from others. That said, you need to learn to do it yourself, not rely on the judgement of others like a crutch.
One of the simplest ways in the beginning is to pick some of the broader sector ETF's and look to enter on weakness. Generally, you want the ETF to be above its 200 day moving average for the last 20 days. When this is the case, in general, the trend is up.
Trend up means its probably ok to add money every time the market sells for 2 days or more in a row, and at least 1-2% decline, put a bit in.
You should plan to split your investment initially into 6 entries, and in the meantime, keep saving for another entry. Ideally, you want to start cycling in, but always have a spare amount to invest on the next decent dip, and keep this going rolling forward. It does not have to be a large sum of money, but in general you would want it to be at least enough to purchase 10 shares of whatever investment you are looking at. Places like Zecco.com I think allow you to trade commission free (no affiliation here)
If the trend is below the 200 day, that means the market is in a downtrend usually, and I would actually wait to invest only at the end of a week where the market sold off 3-5% from a prior high point within the last 10 days. Downtrend = extended selling, Uptrend = shorter duration. Downtrend's I would be far more cautious about putting more money in, because it may continue and you should be less aggressive.
I have many hubs on trading and investing, but most are geared toward the trading end, not the investing area.
