    How good are you at trading - just be honest

    I don't think any trader who takes a wage thinks they are particularly good. I make a living from trading and have been doing so for years but i def wouldn't consider myself a market god or that i have "cracked" it. If i don't get stopped and take on a losing trade at least once a day then...

I have seen some of the cleverest guys with thier phd's in maths and economics get crushed by the markets because they can't keep in control of their emotion when they get stopped.

We'd picked 1 we were really happy with until an argument broke out over if we should go for the synthetic upholstery or the real animal skin. naturally i opted for the rare...

    Well i'm still here after doing the course and still trading as an independent through amplify. i'm just curious as to how many of the nay sayers here have actually done the course? And if so what month did you join? chances are we would've exchanged some ideas in the hotcomm room

    Hi Nut, I agree about the Cambridge/Oxford/Harvard argument, I believe the only reason these uni's churn out the brightest people in the world is because they only accept the brightest people to begin with. When I first looked into the different types of courses available there were a few to...

I thought I'd write an honest review of my experience for anyone else thinking of taking part in the course.
