    Daytrading from Ireland

    I met a guy in the UK a while back who was a trader (profitable as far as I could judge) and had been an accountant. He had an interesting take on this question.

    Futures Trading Course (Bill McCready)

    futurestradingsecrets I bought it a while back. As a system some people with a preference for discretionary, scalping type trading could probably make it work.

    Sid Wyemann and Forextrainingworks

    forextrainingworks I took the course a while back. Some good stuff on money management and how to run your trading like a business (but by no means all you need to know) The method itself (like all methods) requires a particular type of personality - I've heard Sid himself say that even if you...
