I have the exact same views as you jtrader. Completely. I'm also hoping to be able to use this a as a way to improve my financial situation later. I just have a problem which is to actually get started... I read page up and page down and get confused as hell to say the least... hehe What...

I've read the first steps guides more than once now... and have got a little insight. Now.. aside from paper trading.. I'm starting small... I got 500£ stacked away which I plan on trying to dabble a bit with once I get the basic hang of this... but what should I dive into. I first thought...

hehehe... Well, thank you so much. That certainly is a nice compliment. And as for SunSeeker... thanks for telling me... I think I'll send him a PM right away.

Thank you very much for your replies. Let me point out first that I hadn't ever imagined becoming good enough at this to actually earn so much money that I could quit my day-time job... who knows.. maybe I will, yet that wasn't the plan. My financial goals aren't something I would imagine...
