No I fully agree you can't ever truly know what the market will do. Just seeing what people are speculating will happen. The volatility is where I make/lose my money. It allows we to me to scalp profits of £50+ wwithin less than 5min at times. To tell the truth today has been a bad day for me...

Of cause its all about reading the charts / support & resistance. I guess I am just seeing what people are speculating the UK 100 will do when it opens. I know people won't know what it will do, just seeing what peoples personal thoughts are that's all. Thanks for your reply.

Hey, Just wanting to get peoples take on how they think the UK 100 will open after closing on 7032.81 in a bit of a sell off? I mean we did see a high of 7044.81 earlier on in the day, do you expect it to spike up / drop down / just open steady. I personally think the sell off we saw was due...

UK 100 made a nice upward move, due to three bad trades I am currently working on damage control so had a take profit order setup which got hit before the peak of the upward move. I'm not complaining though, I stayed with my intended plan and everything went as I intended. 13:03:33 - Buy...

Well its time to get some sleep for me BUT I thought I would share my first day's worth of trades. http://mypaththere.com/trade-review-09042014/

Hope you bring your account back up fella.

Thanks tomorton. Last three trades before the UK 100 closed for the day. 1:- Buy - 2000 Contracts - 6,976.94 Closed at 6,979.06 - £ 42.40 P 2:- Sell - 2000 Contracts - 6,980.56 Closed at 6,981.44 - £ -17.60 L # Let myself close out too early, could have been a nice profit it I had waited a...

Well its been a little while, to tell the truth no where near as long as I though I would be out of the game BUT I am back trading. Just a small amount but I am in the game again. http://mypaththere.com/we-are-live/

They didn't do bad making money out of me eh. Well I think the next time round I will be going for an execution only account.

So you asked to see my trades, best way I could do that is to provide a copy of my monthly statements. They can all be seen here: http://mypaththere.com/look-trading-account/

Sorry if I came off shirty in my reply, that's not what I intended. Yer I am aware my broker got a base wage and then commission on top of that. They did provide me with some good trades as well but yer I agree could be worth getting an execution only account the next time round. The £30 just...

Well as I said in my opening post this has learnt me a few lessons and I would be looking to have more direct control over the account when I fund it again. Its been a lesson that came at a cost but it is what it is.

I will look at posting it when I get some free time, it was a mix of two trades on the FTSE one that was open from a few days or so before the last trade made on my account (this one has been held way too long and looking at it I should have just taken the loss on it, but kept getting advised we...

Hi Lightning McQueen, Almost all trades on the account was based on advise from my broker. I think I had one or two suggested trades I put forward to my broker to see what they thought and we then actioned them. The account had a stop in placed which my broker had put in place, the account...

So I finally stepped into the world of trading and funded an advisory account with JNF with £1200, so a pretty small account. Unfortunately that account has been blown out now and sits there with £14.51 left in it. This has been a real eye opening experience, with some real up and down...
