I'd like to join, but this is too early & too far - any future meetings more central to london?

if anyone is meeting up (is anything arranged for north or central london?) - then i'd be happy to attend.

admittedly, I was close to opening an account with them - they are quite aggressive sales people. I tracked the recommendations they sent and as another person on this board said "they may as well use a dart board in selecting stocks". What made me cancel the meeting to open the account was the...

Thanks for your responses so far. I also don't think the LSE course is right, price aside. To answer, I've been trading for a couple of years quite actively, though have no formal training. I'd like to go full-time but too old to be taken on as a prop trader. Rather, I would like to work with my...

I am in the midst of evaluating Sharescope, and think it's quite good (as mentioned, I'm UK orientated). But, what do you think of Barclays BARCX product? It seems to have exactly the same functionality, from what I can tell, and is quite competitively priced (ie, free over a certain number of...

Hi - can anyone recommend a trading course, preferably from a proprietary trading company or similar that offers public training courses? I'm interested in Futures, equities and CFDs. By way of example, I would never touch anything by Wininvesting, instead I'm looking for professional training...

FCT Trading I am also curious (though the original post was a number years ago!) - has anyone experienced training at FCT and what did you think of the course? What were the best and worst aspects and how did it help you in your trading?

Hi - reading the Investors Chron. the other day they used the phrase "half-short positon" in terms of writing options. What is a half-short position? thanks.
