i would prefer forex for several reasons like: you take profit on both bull & bear markets unlike stocks when you only take profit when you "buy" a stock; 24-hour market; high leverage, superior liquidity; transparency of market information; lower transaction costs than equities & futures; ability to go long or short with equal ease; so on & so forth.
safety & security depends on the kind of trading tool that you use & the company you're dealing with.

I would agree with anna, only I've only just started with forex, so I would not want to claim to be a forex expert. Forex is probably more risky than stocks, with higher volatility, higher leverage, etc. That said, yes I do invest online - seems to be pretty safe, I've been doing it for 3 years now, no problems. I would recommend ICICI at http://www.icicidirect.com

Hi!
My only advice to you if you really want to invest in the stock market, choose mutual funds than go directly for a broker (online or physical) because in the mutual fund, your investment in the stock market is being managed by the fund manager who is expert in that field and knows how to increase your earnings/profit while the direct stock trading especially the online type cannot be controlled and it's you who will trade which is very risky.
