For me and my own particular budget, spreadbetting is the only option. I do however believe that it is possible to simulate dma using spreadbetting such that the anticipated profit/loss per pip from an imaginary larger dma trade can be mapped on to a spreadbet so that the P/L is the same for...

Hi folks, Could someone please explain what scalping is? Is it just trading on a very short timeframe? If so what timeframe? Do the spreadbetting companies have any minimum timeframe per trade? Sorry if the answers are completely obvious. thanks in advance, Paula.

Sounds interesting, if a little unorthodox, what mechanism did you use to translate accross to the notefield? Paula PS. This post should show you how you get updated on postings to a thread you are involved with :-)

Hi Andrew, As a new and eager learner to this forum, a network engineer of 30 years experience and a research student in the field of neural networks, this thread intrigues me. What program are you using to model your GA on and how have you linked it accross to carry out your autotrades? (If...
