The Best Ways to Generate Enormous Investment Gains

By Travis Packer

If you've ever invested money, I'm sure you can relate to the thrill that a great investment or trade brings. Few things in this world beat the rush that comes with making money this way.

People are always looking for ways to make their money grow, and the first place that many people look is to the hottest markets. We've seen many of them in our lifetimes and we're bound to see some more. These exemplify the dreams of overnight riches that many of us have, so there are always investors flocking to them.

Even in today's market climate, there's a lot of money being made. This has to do with the fact that sharp movements in market prices lead to major profits and losses.

Despite the fact that many are down on their investments, there are others who have played the market just right, making huge returns in the process. Here are some of the places their money has been.

One such area is ETFs. These are tracking stocks that follow the directional movement of industries on a whole. Some of them are leveraged, giving you the opportunity to make even more money when things move in the right direction. ETFs that may be of interest to you include some in oil and energy, some in the financial markets, and many more.

Many people love the concept of stock options, and with good reason. You could easily double or triple your money (or much more) with a successful options trade. Unlike traditional equities, this could all occur over the course of a few days. This kind of thing happens all the time with options trades, since they're highly leveraged. Just remember that your investment could just as easily disappear should things go the other way.

Lastly, the foreign exchange currencies market has caught on like wildfire in recent years. Many Forex traders have made fortunes on movements in currencies over very short periods of time. Forex trading involves a high tolerance for risk, but the reward opportunity is most certainly there.

Remember that these are all high risk markets. If you're looking for something more secure, seek out traditional equities, mutual funds, or bonds. - 29950
