syrre You have a smiley face here. Is this a serious comment? (I really don't understand the above.) Anyway, you have 50 to 100 trades a day I assume. Can you comment on or off-line what your winning percentage is? I won't ask how much you make a day of course. I will...

Confused but got to go for today. Take care, Stephen Szpak

ET policy does not permit the posting of links from non sponsors, by the way. Should I assume that ET does not permit the posting of links of non sponsors AND just the names of individual companies that are non sponsors as well? Where is the sponsors list please? Stephen Szpak

Michael Didn't see any candlestick footprints. Unless I'm misunderstanding you here. What do you use? (time permitting) What are decent commissions and who has them? (time per.) Thanks, as always, Stephen Szpak

Also from syrre: well, in the way i am able to give a sort of advice i would say the most relevant/important thing you should do before trading, is watching the market depth A LOT, and try to get a "feeling" for the movements. What product do you use? Website? How many hours of...
