I could ask the same question, since they did not allow it for me.

This is not true, they do not allow you to reset your TradeSense. It is an introductory programme so once you have used the programme, you have to move onto normal trade sizes.

I have the same problem, but I don't think you can find any broker that would allow less than £1 per pip. If you are using Limited Risk Account at IG Index, it is possible to bet 10p per pip for the first two weeks, but this amount increases to 20p in the third week, 50p in the fourth, and...

They said that it was a stop order and as such this is subject to slippage at the opening. They also said that the I have to pay a "premium" spread for guaranteed stop loss as I use a limited risk account. Which one is it - premium or slippage? We'll never know.

Could be anything, but then again it only proves that there is limited reliability in a not wholly consistent system which is prone to manipulation.

Which spread betting firm are you using? I have a quote for a June contract at 328.66 / 331.29. As others have pointed out in the thread, the farther the expiry date is, the farther the quotes will be from the current market price, based on the calculations of the spread betting firm. Or, the...

Problems with the site Well I tried and the demo account works okay. However there are some trades which I can't seem to close because I get an error message that the server was unable to fulfill my request. This happens mostly when I am making profits... interesting. I'd be cautious to open a...

Good thread. Pretty much everything shared here is written in Trading In The Zone. And you won't get far with focus & discipline if you don't know nothing about technical analysis.

Thanks for the book idea. As per my 2nd comment, yeah English isn't my native language, sorry about using "virtual account" instead of "demo account". As per my 3rd comment it was just a suggestion. Perhaps direct me to a few good threads instead of bashing me? Just being cruel to be kind here.

Could anyone recommend useful books for SB beginners? Like outlining basic strategies etc. This is my 2nd thread on the forums, hopefully it won't be ignored like the previous one... Also it would be a good idea for the admins to set up FAQ threads answering basic questions. (The stickied...
