I am sure there are better places to find people to discuss such matters than at a trading site. But I guess, trolling here may be more fun?

Let me get this straight. You receive spam emails, and actually consider paying someone that uses spam to attract business for investment advice? I would say just go all in. You will lose all your money sooner or later, so just get it over with. The pain will be less that way

Start without leverage and positions half the size, or maybe even better, a quarter of what you think you should start with. That way you will also be a trader a year from now...

Europe is a leftist museum, where starting a business is nearly frowned upon. And it is consisting of a large number of countries which doesn't have that much in common. As a Northern European, I feel like I have much more in common with the US than Central and Southern Europe, and have never in...

Do you need someone to translate for you?

And of all the airline companies, you are recommending one that will soon flood the marked with newly issued stocks after an agreement with the bondholders.....

The government hate competition.....

For your second question, I can guarantee that trading part time and trading full-time is two very different things. First of all, if it is full-time, you need to pay bills with the return. That means you need to take money out from your trading account. And, especially if you have a slump...

I am sure it applies to a lot of fund managers, as well as for many other occupations in finance. However, if you are great at trading you can make x USD trading your own account. If you run a fund and manage the same return your gain will be x + y USD. Your capital will be a lot higher, and...

Norway have agreements with a lot of other countries which lets you deduct whatever taxes you pay in the country you are a resident. However, as it is almost impossible to find any country with higher taxes, you always ends up paying Norwegian tax anyways minus whatever you have already paid to...

Yes, for example in Norway, which is in Europe, you still have to pay Norwegian tax for 4 years after you leave the country. Doesn't matter if you have sold all your stuff and haven't been back during those 4 years...

Not a chance... Very few if any professionals use 1:100. Actually very few use as much as 1:20. It is only amateurs, gamblers and beginners that would use high leverage. Because it is only a matter of time before you will lose everything

Back in the days when I worked as an IB analyst, I always started with the notes.

Just forget it. If you need speed to be competitive, you have already lost. The high-frequency firms are impossible to compete with unless you have similar resources. So go for Python. It is fast enough and will be a zillion times easier to learn and quicker to implement. Python does also have...

Thats just if you chose a scam-broker. I have traded with Oanda since 2014 and never had any such experience. Chose a serious and regulated broker, and it will be perfectly safe. And if he wants to trade oil, why trade stocks? No stock will give the same exposure to oil as actually buying...

An offshore broker that offers 1:1000? Is it by any chance run by a Nigerian prince?

I say Oanda as well. Have had no trouble taking out money neither. They might not always be the cheapest, but they will not scam you.

Beginners might join those because they do not know better or because they are not really looking to learn how to trade, but just want to find an easy way to become rich. Needless to say, almost all of those that are willing to throw their hard earned money at junk-services, will never learn nor...
