Stevespray Thankyou for a useful & interesting post. What I would say is that whilst I am in profit overall so far I have made some big blunders along the way and I am very glad that I used Spreadbetting and small stakes when making these mistakes as I could not have afforded to be trading...

Oh and Finspreads are now on 'Phone Trading Only' - not something you see often with CS as I recall.

Thanks for that. I stopped using my live account a week or so ago as I need more practice. Yes, as I recall the live account only crashed once on me and I was told that this had only happened once before in the previous 3 months. It would be helpful to let users know the differences with...

Uncle I am interested in this as this morning I have not been able to get in for 1 hour and 20 mins so far. The message is definitely a CS message on their website and they have not yet called me back to say it's been resolved which they usualy do quite quickly. The system only went down for...

Sorry Simon but the system crashed out 3 times on Friday and this morning I have not yet been able to log onto my account - for 10 minutes since opening. I have phoned the problem in to Customer Services but noone seems to know what is happening. I get into the home page then when I try to log...

Simon I am impressed with Capital Spreads in many ways. I have used the demo for several weeks now and have traded live aswell more recently. I find the platform simple to use, very user friendly and the customer service is very good. However, as you point out you are experiencing technical...

I believe that targets are very bad for you. It can make you trade that little bit more than you should have done at a time when you know you should have stepped back and stayed out as the conditions are not right - just to try and achieve your target. I learnt that one during my first few...

The best thing about Chris Farrell's book is that he wrote it first and made alot of money, for Chris Farrell, on a good idea that went sour as soon as it became a bestseller. I like Toni Turner's books as they deal with some very straightforward common sense approaches.

Richard does not take responsibility for the actions of his students. How on earth could he? Ditto for all other tutors, teachers and mentors etc. Yes but I think most would or should question whether we should send our kids into a classroom with a teacher whose students failed consistently...

Dentist007 did you work in the same Dental practice as Mr Charts before he gave up dentistry for trading?

I too had problems with the stability of the software, not having broadband and only Win98, it just wouldn't operate on my PC. Capital Spreads is much easier as you don't have to download the software, just log onto their website and trade.

It never ceases to amaze me how people find it so easy to be insulting when they are posting threads - things that they probably would not dream of saying face to face. Thirteen - if you have no time for arguments then why start one? You say you didn't mean to make Skim mad - then threw all...

Keep moving your stop loss up behind the winner, once you have your stop loss at 'break-even' you have nothing to lose by letting the winner run, then keep edging the stop loss upward. Of course if the instrument is 'bouncing around' then you' ll get stopped out but if you do this often enough...

I have been attacked by dozens of viruses in the last 2 mths - thankfully, my Virus Software has blocked them all - visiting trading related websites has certainly increased the number of attacks. I have been advised by an IT guy that there are so many out there now that McAffee has had as many...

Simon I too am very happy with Capital Spreads so far. The support I have been getting from Customer Service is good and they are very helpful and patient with me. I'm not surprised you don't want to divulge your marketing strategy, I am surprised you were asked! But hey - don't ask, don't...
