    best route to becoming a trader in the city (london)

    An institution is looking for consistent risk management, a solid trading plan, and time. Every successful trader does the same things: 1. Trades a demo account until they get a clue. 2. Trades a small live account until they get a clue. 3. Shows patience and sticks with rules of risk...

    Sticky Introduce Yourself

    Hello. Trading Forex for a few months. I don't believe in the long term viability of EA's but I'd love someone to prove me wrong. They seem best as a tool in the hands of an intelligent trader. Used as an advisor not a decision maker. I hope to be helped and hope to be helpful.
