Typical ET. Nobody even asked him WHAT he wanted to trade, as if all trading were the same. Or if he actually had any money to trade WITH.
SOS, if you're still reading, I suggest you start a thread called "Teach Me to Trade" (sounds like the infomercial, hahaha!).
Ask a series of trenchant questions (and expect cutting answers back, if you'll pardon the pun). I would start with "Should I trade at all?", expecting the question back "Why do you WANT to trade?"
This could be followed by "What should I trade?"
The idea being that studies have shown that the larger the group you ask a question of, the closer the collective answer is to being right. Great good fun for all, I should think.
