    Need an Answer

    Depending on what you trade, yes. Just don't have any illusions of scoring big or trading for a living. 100% of $200 is still only $200 or a nice dinner for you and your significant other.

    Iran Court Orders U.S. to Pay $600 Million for giving Saddam chemical weapons

    Try the first 2 market wizards books along with Reminicieses of a stock operator (I can't spell either). Those three more than anything else I have read have helped the most.

    The Bill to re-instate the draft now in Congress

    Maybe if more people actually served their country in some capacity they would have a better appreciation for what it offers. Many men and women have died or sacrificed more than most could possibly understand so that people can express themselves on forums such as this. It is a shame that...

    OANDA has the best spreads that I am aware of and I have not had any issues with the execution. I have not used any other broker except for demos so I am partially biased.
