    What can you trade in a Forex Account?

    I wanna open a trading account but don't have enough money so I looked into forex and learned you can open an account for as little as $100 with 8x leverage. Also, I just found some forex companies allow you to buy stocks with 20:1 leverage but limit the choice to real big companies like aapl...

    95% of all traders lose... do they really?

    This may sound silly but a lot of life experience and a ton of time playing poker or tcg games can actually give you an edge in trading. There are actually firms that hire people who are good at poker but with no prior trading experience.

    Trade Ideas Scans

    It's just that the watchlists can be done better. I am a daytrader so a delay of 1 minute to able to see my symbols on the watchlists is a biggie. Nonetheless, their software is ok otherwise. Charts can be done better as well but I know that isn't their selling point.

    95% of all traders lose... do they really?

    I think it's accurate people who just jump in the stock market for the 1st time will lose their pants. That is why I've been paper trading for a while and yes I was one of those people who jumped in not knowing a thing of how the stock market worked.

    PDT for Canadians.

    Lol, VB should be safe. They were ranked #1 on globe and mail for like 3 years straight. Don't judge something by it's name :D

    PDT for Canadians.

    VB stands for virtual brokers. And they're a Canadian broker. I haven't actually opened an account with them yet, I just have their demo account so I refer them as my broker anyways.

    PDT for Canadians.

    I want to open an account with a Canadian Online Broker and trade US stocks am I subject to the PDT rule? I've emailed my broker VB and they told me it doesn't exist for them but I wanna make sure from someone that isn't trying to get my business.

    Trade Ideas Scans

    I just found out how to make a watchlist. You have to put them in a symbol list first then add them to a toplist. When you want to add or remove a symbol you can't do it directly from the toplist one of the pet peeves. Also, the symbols take almost a minute to appear. For a rather high-end...

    In your opinion/experience, what are the most succesful trading styles/methods etc.

    As a poker player for many years, the style that works best for me is a combination of daytrading and swing trading. Never hold anything for more than a week. I am not a fundamental trader so who knows what will happen after a week. This is also imo the quickest way to grow a capital from a...

    Short Selling.

    I got a quick question... Gasl went up 800% the other day due to a split. What would happen to investors who had short shares? Would they suddenly see losses of over 800%? So $10000 that's 80k or would it see no difference.

    Trade Ideas Scans

    Do they've intraday chart pattern scans or should I just stick with TC2000? I am using the demo version so I can't be sure if they have it or not. Can someone confirm this? I really like their clean interface but as a technical momentum daytrader I can't live without it.

    How do day traders and investors pay their taxes?

    They're not gonna look into every individual trade you've done so you just calculate your total profit by the end of each quarter. In Canada, (where I am from.) you only have to report yearly.

    After using this trading simulator I'm convinced technical analysis simply doesn't work

    Using just TA without any other indicators is like a blindman trying to get somewhere without his walkdog.

    Freestockcharts

    Need real time quotes and scanning. I can simply use FINVIZ free version if I just wanted delayed scans or to look at daily charts. But thanks, I think I'll try the platinum version and just see how it goes!

    Freestockcharts

    Does anyone know the major differences between GOLD & Platinum for TC2000 VR 16? On the purchase screen it only mentions auto-refresh scan and sorting and trendline alerts but I doubt it's only that for such a huge difference in price.
