    Trading Other Peoples Money - What is allowed?

    Hi Magnet, This sounds like a USA issue ? CTA, CPO etc.. I am talking about in the UK, not the USA. Assume shadow was talking about the UK as Tesco was mentioned LOL. God forbid there is Tesco in the USA... HA. Just to be clear, what´s the situation in the UK ? Not really interested in USA...

    Trading Other Peoples Money - What is allowed?

    I see. So trading 2 friends small accounts is seen as "Managing Funds" and therefore "Authorised Activity" - It´s a bit pathetic, isn´t it. lol. I remember sometime someone told me that in the USA you can manage up to 5 "friends and family" accounts without being registered. I guess nothing...

    Trading Other Peoples Money - What is allowed?

    Hi, I have been asked by a couple of pals to trade their money for them. One account of 25k and another of 42k. Not sure this is actually allowed is it ? I know I can get a POA to trade their account for them, but do I not need to be a CTA to do that ? Or is there a level of "friends accounts"...

    Slippage?

    Sorry. I do not understand what you mean. Finspreads are finished with me, as I previously disclosed. Looking for a better option.

    Gold Wave Count

    I use Doji a lot in my short term trading (i only do short term). Great sign of indecision and poss good entry point if you can stack it up.

    Oil and Gold Trading Room

    Anyone know of a Oil and Gold trading/chat room ? Just where there is a community of traders who are looking at those markets, don´t want any BS calls etc. I looked at Paltalk but it was just full of rubbish. (Shock Horror). Not interested in stocks or Fx, just Oil and Gold. I have found a...

    It sucks

    I think SB sucks. If anyone has a good SB company to work with then I would be glad to hear about them. The advantages are obvious as a UK citizen, but I have used Finspreads, Ig and CityIndex and had similar problems with all of them. I enjoyed it for the start out, the charts are OK etc...

    Slippage?

    Pretty much all of my trades slip. But then, I use Finspreads, what do you expect.. haha. Looking for a better solution so maybe I don´t get screwed so often. Worse time is market open or close where it can lock up for minutes and have to get 3 or 4 re-quotes before the trade actually goes...
