Quote from christopher:
Hi all,
I live in Vancouver and absolutely love it. Iam originally from Ottawa. Vancouver is definately my home now. I've been all over the world and can honestly say this is a gem of a city.
I recently posted a thread a few days ago about getting into trading. I have zero background. However, I want to learn and get involved.
Any of you Vancouverites have any input about resources in the city? I 've done some research but perhaps I am missing something. Also, any comments about Bright ( Vancouver) ?
To trade Forex I would set up free demos with:
http://www.oanda.com/
and:
www.refcofx.com
With Oanda there is no trading software to download, great for when you are on a public computer such as at the downtown Vancouver Public Library.
With Refcofx you have to download the trading software, so you will need your own computer. If you use a laptop with wireless the downtown Vancouver Public Library has free access to a wireless network on the 4th floor.
Refcofx accepts Canadian live accounts, I do not know about Oanda.
