Abstract: This study presents a comprehensive review of prevalent trading strategies among Indian retail investors, drawing upon existing literature to analyze their preferences for technical, fundamental, and informal approaches. The research identifies a significant reliance on technical indicators such as RSI and MACD, often employed without comprehensive understanding, and highlights the substantial influence of social media and peer advice on investment decisions. The findings underscore the need for enhanced financial literacy and structured education to promote informed trading practices among Indian retail investors.
