Request for a Glossary here in the first steps forum.

[melsen]

I think it would be awesome if there was some sort of stickied thread here in the forum that had a glossary in it.

Basically explaning various words so even a 4 year old could understand them.

I often bump into abbreviations (spelling?) and words I simply have no idea what mean and therefor not being able to get the whole meaning of guides.

Now, this naturally me be a combination of me being totally new to the business as well as not having english as my first language... but.. Ohh well...

Hi Allan

There are already a number of trading/financial glossaries online if you google for them.

Cheers

There is a Glossary. Right at the top of the page, on the red tabs, there is Resources, then Glossary.

Here's a link to it:

DUH!

I'm so sorry about that... I seriously hadn't thought about looking there.. I simply glanced at the forums.
Thank you very much for the help.

LOL - no problem. There is a lot of information on these boards, so it will take time in finding it all.

The glossary at investopedia.com is the one I've been using lately. It's big.
