Sticky Introduce Yourself

Hi all,

My name is Mikey and i'm here to learn about trading, I am a complete newbie but would like to learn about technicals. I am interested in particular in options - US markets. I am UK based and was wondering if anyone knew of a UK based online brokerage site that will allow me to trade US options without exorbitant fees (or forced currency conversions). Thanks

Looking to Start a UK OEIC or UNIT TRUST (Canadian Equitiy Focused)

Good afternoon - I work in the investment department of an established investment management firm looking after private clients, foundations and a mutual fund. I am looking to start or set up a Canadian equity fund in the UK (either an OEIC or Unit Trust). Looking for the best ways to do it that is not too costly - I would consider a sub-advisor mandate too if it is easiest to do... Any ideas or suggestions?
 
Good evening everyone, my name's Jason. I currently work in the Finance sector for a merchant bank as an underwriter; with a basic understanding of stocks and day trading, looking to get a real strategy down and start to day trade from home and build a portfolio.
 
Hi There

I am living in England and am learning to be a full-time Forex trader. I started in June 2012 and have just started to make a profit. I am particularly interested in exit strategies.... It is easy to open a trade but not as easy to maximise profit. All suggestions gratefully recieved.
 
Hi,

I'm in Atlanta GA. After months of virtual trading /es I left my 17 year career in nuclear medicine and cashed out my retirement to trade full time. I had my game down cold on TDAmeritrade but when it came game time the wouldn't approve me to trade /es. Now I'm having to start over on IB and figure it all out. They aren't very user friendly...
 
I've been reading the site off and on for a few years. I've been trading since 2000. I started trading bull put spreads in options in 2000, after taking a "course" offered by a trader in my town. You can guess for yourself how that went. A couple years later I cobbled together another trading account, read some books, and started trading O'Neil stocks before moving to some indicator based, shorter term systems. I took more courses, read more books, became more systematic and statistical in my market approach, and I had some success (finally). About two years ago, I started trading a couple of back-tested systems intra-day with very small risk size. After about 8 months, I was able to build up to my target risk size and traded that way for a little over a year. I'm taking some time off right now to stay at home with toddler, but I plan to start trading again within the next few months.

Edit: Oops, I forgot, I trade equities and ETFs now...no more options.

hi, I am new to forex trading, a confident and quick learner but also humble and willing to learn. I used to sell life insurance and got on the fsa register due to that with my company, please kindly advice if i can still use that platform to accept peoples money or do I need to re-register. kind regards
 
Hi Boykie76,
Don't know about those, never done it; I do serious maths on all entities. That gives me direction as well as when (intra-day) to trade. When positive (or negative) factors enter the entity my maths(graph) tell me and I can take action.
Hope this helps
May you have a good day!
Wessel
