I think you're on the right track in starting with paper trading. However, the number one thing any prop firm might be concerned about is whether you'll freak out or not when you put real money at risk. If you're not used to trading at all, maybe it would be better to start with swing...

I'm sorry I can't find the thread again. Anyway, it was a thread where someone was saying that he told his family being a beginner was like training as an athlete. I don't know whether you'll ever succeed or not so I don't know if it's worth answering. And I hate to say this but it sounds...

ROFLMAO! :)

I don't know if this is going to go to hell and back again. But, the stocks that make up PBW are in the high growth area.

Ah, thanks for the information on the brokers. I just read in "Getting Started in Currency Trading" that Canada's Forex regulator was Investment Canada.

I haven't made it yet but I'll try to make a few observations from what I've learned so far. First, the whole debate about whether you should do fundamental or technical analysis. I eventually learned that in 20 contests that lasted 1 year in the World Cup Trading Championships, only a few...

I have yet to meet anyone who actually made it and I haven't made it myself. But, I read in (I think it was in David Nassar's book: Market Evaluation and Analysis for Swing Trading) that day traders can make 400% to 500% per year while swing traders can make 300% to 400% per year. I have no...

I read you should only have a forex account with a broker who is a member of your country's futures regulator. I have an account with Tradefreedom and I'd like to open a mini-forex account. (The minimum there is only $500.)

Hello, I installed a folder with Martin Pring CD-ROMs in the Azureus downloads folder but it doesn't seem to do anything. How can I share my file in Vuze? The manual link took me to a wikipedia site and I can't see how to share a file.

Mastering the Trade by John Carter has information on how to trade e-mini futures.

I'll take a crack at this since no one else answered. These are some books that I've read about lately... -Getting Started in Commodities by George Fontanills -Starting Out in Futures Trading by Mark Powers -Trading Commodities and Financial Futures by George Kleinman -Futures and...

I'm a beginner myself but I wanted to say I read a bunch of books lately and I find that Oliver Velez's booklet and DVD on swing trading seems like an easier method to follow. However, I haven't really tried it yet so I can't comment on its effectiveness. I'd also like to add that I noticed...

Thanks for that. I'm not sure how to make the Andrews Pitchfork work yet but I found the Fibonacci kind of interesting. When I looked at the QQQQ, SPY and DIA, you could see all three in a weekly chart actually reversed at 62%. That's quite a coincidence.

and also market profile that's easy to use?

I'd like to learn more about those but I need to see them to see how they work. Does anybody know which site can provides that for free? Or, maybe a software program that doesn't cost that much that maybe includes the ability to include pivot formulas and market profile. EDIT: I just wanted...

Well, I tried to upload to sharebee and rapidshare and it didn't work. I wonder if anyone knows how to quickly and efficiently share a 1.46 GB file to other people. Anyone know? Anyway, to those people who have like 5 GB email accounts, I can forward the file to you if you wish. You can...
