From memory it was straight vanilla cross over. The book and videos went in the skip when I moved house (cost over £1000 :( ) last year. He uses his cheap course to up sell more "advanced" courses.

Vince Stanzione is back Not sure he ever went away....? Just received a glossy brochure from him advertising his new course. Worryingly it had a letter from ShareScope with it. I have had an account with ShareScope in the past and very disappointed that they have sold my details on -...

Yes - this was Martin Cole - based in Spain - moved to NZ some years back - developed a very expensive piece of software that plotted coloured triangles.

Thanks for your responses Random and Peter. This is the T&C they quoted me - it still doesn't make any sense as to why they didn't open a short position for me (although your response Peter gives some insight - although CS told me they are very keen to open new positions because they earn the...

I have been using Capital Spreads for some time. Yesterday I was long on at index (had been since 14/1) and had set a stop which had not changed in that time. Two days ago I decided that if the market stopped me out I wanted to go short at the same level. Yesterday I was stopped out and I...

Pboyles - thanks for naming the scam. I found the following on the web - the "10 signs that you've been setup" apply to this company. http://www.learnmoney.co.uk/advice/advice-87.html

I have been cold called by a company called Cityshore Commodities Ltd trying to sell my a plot of land in Grantham for £10,000+ with "good returns in 18 months". Their brochure implies that this could be 7 times investment - "should planning permission be approved". Not sure where they found...

I had a call out of the blue from Cantor today. I haven't used my account for years and as it hadn't any money in it I never got around to closing it. They were offering me £250 of free bets, provided I reactivated my account and deposited some money. I can't find anything on their website or...

Ukdaytrader - definitely end user only - not trying to sell anybody anything - just sharing some info about a company I have used in the past (and will probably use again next time I want some historical data).

A good source of historic data can be found here: Historical tick data ("www.tickdata.com") I have used this company over a number of years and found their data good and speed of supply excellent.

I agree Steve - would also be good to have pre-defined limits as well. I set my entry, stop and limit, but with CS's order ticket it is fiddly and time consuming and sometimes navigating back and forth through the ticket the platform hangs. It is also difficult to check an order, except by...

Davie, I have just been going through the threads about your trading system. I notice that on Amazon your old book is unavailable and you have a new one on your website. Is the old system, that has been reviewed in T2W, in the new book or is it a completely new system? (Apologies if this has...

Question for Simon - Dealingdesk Simon, I notice that Dealingdesk is part of LCG and that previously in this thread you have said that the platform is a faster than CS's. Is it possible to transfer a CS account across to Dealingdesk? Ozzie

Problems with new platform Has anyone else had problems with the CS platform causing the browser (IE) to freeze? I have had a few problems since Monday, click on the buttons at the top and nothing happens (eg. going from "Orders" to "Portfolio") and sometimes causing the browser to crash.

These are my results for the first week trading this system. Some of these were on D4f and some on the E*Trade spreadbetting simulator: Mon +39 pips Tue -99 pips Wed +97 pips Thurs - did not trade due to meetings Fri -38 pips Results per instrument: GBP +8 pips CHF +8pips EUR -56 pips JPY...
