I advice you do not because the funds in the account resulting from the short sale serve as collateral for the delivery of shares sold, even though you do not currently own those shares. Also you cannot withdraw the cash you get when you sell stock short.

Basically, when you lose in forex, then your money goes to the broker and then it pays out to those who won the particular position which you have lost. So there's a pretty transparent rotation of funds in this industry, one loses, another one gains and vice versa. It's an endless turnover, at...

Making money is indeed a very blurry purpose. I can relate. Many traders come into this sphere to make money, but eventually they don't usually end up well. They oftentimes leave the market without a penny in the pocket and that is the saddest thing. The objective should be broader, not to...

I trade much better when listening to cello playing. I especially like to listen to Bach played on this instrument.

I have never tried to hypnotise myself for trading. I think it’s useless. Just trade constantly learning on your mistakes. I heard some take drugs to trade better. No, it won’t help. Perhaps, thus, they try to suppress their fear.

I hope somebody in the US will stop Gensler from running the whole crypto sphere. It’s truly unbelievable how he goes after Coinbase and Binance, at the same time he did nothing with SBF and FTX.

Ideally, we should trade without leverage at all. Thus, we can avoid a sudden stop out during a volatile session. Unfortunately, trading without leverage suggest having very big margin at hand that is not possible for everybody. That’s where leverage comes in handy. It punishes but also...

I remember times when I was eager to trade everything I saw in my trading platform. Fortunately, over time I managed to cope with that stupid passion. Now I trade EUR/USD and AUD/USD only. I don’t want to spend margin on anything else.

I don’t know what to say. This “preferred day” may be at any time – early in the morning or late at night. Respectively, if you are unable to monitor the market from morning till night use pending orders or use alerts if you do other work on your laptop. It’s impossible to physically catch every...

Losing is considered to be something that makes a trader more powerful and experienced. Winning makes the same. That's why trading is worth being tried. The most part of people don't understand that trading is full of experiments and even if you make mistakes and lose funds it means that you...

Who needs UNI in the internet era?! All the information is already available to every person who has a smartphone and couple of braincells. I don’t have a degree or PhD or whatever, but I made it anyhow. Most people became lazybones with all the electronic appliances, cars etc. Sloth is a deadly...

The only thing which has to serve you as a focus in trading is your personal development. Often, newcomers set a quite dubious obejctive: earn as much as they can. yeah... i can agree with such an objective, but obviously itwon't lead them to prosperity. the maximum it will lead to the burnout...

gotta admit the fact that new traders always face some difficulties on the market, and actually all of us were "new traders" back in the times. as for the risk management which you have mentioned, i can agree with you and indubitably, new traders always neglect the rules of risk management...

Unfortunately, the most part of people who have never tried trading claim that it's a negative activity. Otherwise, I am convinced that it of course might be negative because of the potential losses which appear because of your mistakes as a newcomer, nevertheless they are compenstaed by the...

Well, I’m not sure about economic education. I consider DMA account to trade more stuff, because of the direct access you are able to trade stocks, for example, that you don’t usually have in your average broker. Can trade some high-yield shit, if you’re adventurous enough:)

Thanks for the explanation I had such a feeling about this software.

I heard that one can do without DMA. I mean there’s special software that allows to get quotes much earlier then your broker offers it to you. Is it true?

I share this point of view. I think that as of now I can do without DMA. Moreover, I have recently discovered some flaws in my strategy that need to be resolved. Meanwhile, I registered a CFD trading account with the broker to trade CFDs. I wanna polish my strategies on CFDs before shifting to...

I had a desire to get down to DMA with this broker immediately but at the last moment an idea came to my mind that it’s a bit too early for me to try this. I need to put aside more money to trade DMA. I wanna trade bigger lots with the best possible conditions but as of now I got no required...

Anyone who starts down the road to becoming a trader eventually comes across the statistic that 90 percent of traders fail to make money when trading the stock market. This statistic seems that over time 80 percent lose, 10 percent break even and 10 percent make money consistently. An...
