I have the paid subscription to Avira. It is really pretty cheap if you go ahead and get a couple of years. I used to have McAfee, which caused me more problems than it was worth and was almost impossible to get rid of. Then started using all the freebies, but got some bad malware, and after...

Thanks again, retire. I will check out telechart. I have started a new forum for more feedback on my needs so as not to muck up your journal. Happy trading!

Isn't there a broker out there with one software you can use to scan, trade, simulate, backtest, analyze, and chart with life feeds? I am a newbie just starting with Ameritrade and very frustrated as have to use multipe different softwares there to get best scanning, charting, backtesting...

I just subscribed to advanced analyzer and was very disappointed. Admit I have not worked with it much and am a newbie in general, but when I saw right off it only had MAs (no EMAs) it pissed me off. This is supposed to be advanced?

Strategy Desk is probably what I have used the most there since there are lots of strategies and indicators you can edit easily, but no live feed or simulation available, and I actually like the chart layout on commander much better but no scanning or backtesting there. I got a trial...

Are you still using Ameritrade with telecharts? I want to swing trade stocks only (no futures) and just started learning. Very frusted with Ameritrade as have to use multipe different softwares there to get best scanning, charting, backtesting, live-feed analysis, etc, and trying to use Ninja...

Those are some scary looking stocks. But I am a noobie just learning to chart, so what do I know?

I tend to obsess over new ventures, and eat, sleep and drink it. I figured one of my biggest challenges if I started trading would be my inability to pull myself away from it and give it a break. But maybe that is an advantage?

Excuse my ignorance, but what is T?

I'm new here and no expert, but this makes sense.

This makes a lot of sense to me, as a new trader. Thanks for the info.

I knew replying to that post was probably a mistake. I am actually a 30 year old dude with a trust fund living it up here in NYC! (Stop it, Babe - I'm busy right now. Bring me a drink and go back to bed and wait for me there.) Ok - back to trade talk.

I don't see any of your pics on here. :p I'm a hot redhead, but probably not as hot as I think I am since I just turned 50.

Very interesting read indeed.

That is definitely the plan. I want to have a lot of knowledge before I start the demos. I do not want to risk getting lucky without knowing what I am doing, and being tempted to open a cash account too soon. I signed up for the demos, but have not registered or downloaded them yet.

LOL Good question. I guess by "smart" I meant I have always been a quick learner when I wanted to do something and have performed well in other endeavors. I am also very focused when I take on new challenges and very detail oriented, but sometimes lose sight of the big picture, which I am...

I really do appreciate all the warnings. It just confirms I am in the right place. It was really tough to find a site that wasn't full of sales pitches. As I said, I do not plan on opening a real money account until I have gone through all the steps necessary to be able to understand how to...

I found the education forum after I posted this. I have asked the administrator to delete this forum. I am learning a lot from you guys and gals, and what not to do from the occasional douchebag.

I have some cash in a money market fund that I was planning to use to buy a business, but since the economy tanked I have given up on that idea. I have done well investing in real estate, but that scares me now too. Since the stock market has tanked so badly, my thoughts are that there is...
