    Is day trading/home trading dead and gone?

    forexmospherian and Pferd thanks for your insights the following posts,thanks for your input, but you confirmed my fear; automated trading and algo's waiting to ruin a position which traditionally was the right trade to take. So I came from a prop trading floor which was maybe still old school...

    Is day trading/home trading dead and gone?

    Forexmospherian- no wind up, genuine question. i look at daily moves in oil and wonder if its even easy to get 300 or 400 dollars a day. thats sounds like a lot but after costs etc it's not much, as anyone with trading experience knows everyday isn't a winning day. i just heard too many...

    Oak Capital Management???

    mate they treated me well and paid me a salary, and yes i believe what they said, why? because i started to make money from trading. I'm now trading FX from home and loving it, without them i doubt i would have jumped ship and gone from being an employee for a business to someone who can enter...

    anyone heard of Oak Capital Management

    the post about stuart roberts is true; he does say alot of things tht aren't true which is a shame because Oak (including Dave Kempton the director) are a good bunch and they do care about you doing well at trading. I went there, thought stuarts training was average nothing special he makes out...

    Oak Capital Management???

    Oak capital are a good bunch. I went there, and enjoyed it and learnt a lot from them. the 'training' that you pay for isn't 'all that' as it were, mainly because a chap called stuart who gives the training just rushes through it and makes out he is some sort of guru on Market Profile and...

    Best technical approach to trading calendar spreads in Oil

    Ok yes the brent spreads , in my experience, tend to have a correlation with the front month outright. I have found this is true for the first 3 month single spreads or so and the 3 and 6 month spreads e.g. april may spread and may june would probably follow the same direction as the outright...

    Best technical approach to trading calendar spreads in Oil

    Hi my friend, no I'm not trading them anymore I'm doing some FX online. How do you find the brent spreads? They were good, I think it was just me who wasn't patient! I think you need some decent volume though, say a 2 or 3 lot and look to make 3 or so on the single spreads and on a 3 or 6...
