1. What is the Vietnam stock electronic board?
Stock price list is the space that displays all information related to prices and transactions of stocks on the stock market. Mastering how to read and understand the stock price board is an important lesson for every investor when entering the stock market. When wanting to make a stock purchase/sale transaction on the floor, understanding the operations on the electronic board is indispensable.
In Vietnam, there are two main stock exchanges: HNX (Hanoi Stock Exchange) and HOSE (Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange). Each stock exchange and securities companies have their own electronic price boards to serve customers, but the main data is usually provided by the two exchanges and the Securities Depository Center.
Reading and understanding stock price charts is an important skill that every investor needs to master. The price chart not only shows the trading status of the market but also allows investors to track the movements of each stock. Mastering every detail on the price chart helps investors better understand the fluctuations of the market and the changes of each stock, thereby making appropriate investment decisions.
Therefore, the skill of reading and understanding price lists is considered an important lesson that every investor participating in the stock market needs to practice and master.
