Since you have no real life trading experience, I would say get a job at a hedge fund or bank, learn the ropes, build a nest egg and then venture out on your own. The guys with big bucks soft dollar everything and have access to top research and software, which creates a decided edge over the...

20% of your profit is a scam, unless you are trading for .002 or less......
