    Honest opinions! Am I stupid???

    This is absolutely foolish my friend. How can you even think about this? And do you really think you are going to get any kind of serious training in an arcade. Give me a break, they just want your desk fee. Why are you guys so gullible? it's beyond me

    New-Skills

    No need to attend a TA seminar to learn about TA. It will cost you money to attend and more money when you put the stuff into practice. Because text book TA doesn't really work. Get a very simple book on TA or a set of videos (borrow them from a library). Then buy more advanced stuff, Murphy...

    FXCM contest anyone ?

    For some reason they won't allow scalping I think. Anyway that wouldn't get you very far IMO. But daytrading yes of course it is allowed. That's how they make their money.

    FXCM contest anyone ?

    I am going to enter that contest, shooting for a top 5 finish. Would like to hear from previous winners regarding their experience with FXCM and particularly if they found any benefit in getting their records publicized.

    This is B.S. Papertrading that is it (for 2weeks bwahaha), nothing more nothing less. Nothing new. It's no system. GGekko, are you the GEkko from ET?
