....And it all worked out.

Hi there, Does anyone know where I can get a quick and snappy picture of the story of central banks this year? Specifically I need this info for: - The Fed - ECB - People's bank of China Thanks, RMG

We've been in a bearish trend for years son

Today, NYSE:RACE.

What is your perception of "automatic trading"? You think there is just a trading bot that everyone could run and it'd earn everyone millions simultaneously?

Good point man, thanks for making it. The chance I have here to get a mentor is through a program of people seeking mentees. It was an application process with a first and second choice, so I will only get the chance to get one mentor through this program. I put the PE guy as first choice and...

I have the chance coming up to choose a mentor to essentially guide me through the early stages of my career. I have a choice between two people: - A young guy who is now working at a private equity firm as an investment manager. - A much more experienced guy who is a top portfolio manager at...

Hi there, I have had a look around and can't seem to find price data for the ES and COMEX Gold contracts. I would need the price data in 5 minute intervals, and would need 2 - 5 months worth of this time/price data. At the very least, hourly data would suffice. I just thought I'd ask here...

I would still call a holding period of a few months 'trading'. A very small portion of equities traders trade intra-day or even intra-week for that matter. I understand your confusion though, and I am sorry I wasn't more clear in my previous posts. UK equities would fall into the "Stocks"...

"Are you saying that you are no longer investing long term?" - What are you referring to here hhiusa? Broker = Jarvisim, and in the portfolio that I have been referring to in this thread I trade UK equities only.

Hi Tim, Do you trade full time?

Hi again citytrader haha, It was the Royal Mail IPO - hence my username. You'll notice I used the words "very lucky" twice when referring to this trade. What I am trying to get across is, I had a lucky start and have not had to deal with the daunting initial prospect of losing on my first few...

Haha yeah, they have run into some troubles with their acquisition plans but underneath it all the underlying business is still as good as ever. The full costs of the failed aquisition of D&M group (which is the only aquisition they have attempted) is capped at under $800k AUD, but the market...
