    rookie looking for help

    are you aware that 90% of all aspiring traders fail? your market calls are BS. its easy to say what you would have done when you are sitting on the sidelines. trading is HARD WORK. keep your 5K in your bank account and come back when you have enough to live for a year without any income...
