Sticky Introduce Yourself

[Forex Watchdog]

Hi again Boodie
It is very much as I said earlier - Learn to Earn. There is no other way. Forget paper trading as it can and does lull you into a false sense of security. Use minimum stakes to start but ALWAYS calculate how many Pips (points) you would have won or lost. For example if you were betting 10p a point and you lost £10.00 that means you have lost 100 pts. So if your future target is to stake at say £10/pip that would mean you would have lost £1,000. Your basic mentality should be to protect your capital - ok so low risk = low reward but can your mentality handle high risk. Have a trading strategy in place and stick to it. Finally, there are no short cuts or quick fixes - you've got to serve your time.

Hi boodie
Thanks for the compliment (I think) ref. your "basket of goods". Naturally I have not got a simple answer to your question as if I did I'd probably be spending my time in the Bahamas. However, even at my ripe old age I have learnt something very valuable of late: I have always spoken about the trend being your friend but I've recently learnt that the trend is a fine weather friend. I've always tried to follow a trend yet trends are only successful about 20% of the time. So the question I pose is, "Would you befriend someone who is reliable for only 20% of the time?". I'm out of here right now as I need to earn some cash.

Frustrating

I am happy to have joined a trading post site finally. I have never seen such a place where everyone seems so keen to help each other. Makes a change from smart mouthed geeks making remarks from behind a keyboard.

Hi everyone

Nice to meet you. I'm a futures trader, lately with the dislocation in fundamentals bc of government intervention in the market, I have turned to more forex for fundamental trading views.

Its interesting that forex is extremely technical, something I have to learn if I want to have some degree of success in trading. Anyways, I look forward to contributing more to this site!

Newbie

Hi all,

new to this site, stumbled on it just recently and couldnt read the posts so then i had to join! Hoping to learn from this site, it has heaps of stuff and members alike. Been doing small time share trading for a few yrs but recently took an interest in spread betting when a neighbour showed me how he does it. Tried simulator a couple of yrs ago but couldnt get my head around it. Now trying simulator with different companies before deciding to pick one to trade for real. Best of luck to everyone:cheesy:
