well played sir, well played :)

A screenshot or reference point would help to give you an explination. As it is, there is little info to go on :)

Babypips school is a great place to start. Even once you are trading its a good place to pop back to for a refresher. There are that many things to consider, sometimes you forget what is in your toolbox lol

In Honesty, both. You want to demo thats for sure. This helps to develop your understanding of how the market works, how to use your technical indicators etc and how to read the impact of the fundamentals. However, the psychology of trading can only be learned live. So when your learning of the...

Belated greetings also. Bring on 2013, may the losses be low and the profits grow :)

I guess its a waiting game to see what Obama's final offer is, but its encouraging that there is movement towards an agreement with the Republicans

It's good to start in demo to get a feel for a platform, the charts, indicators and tools. But as many have said here, while demo is good for learning the fundamentals and practices, you can not learn anything about the psychological effects that trading real money plays on your emotions and...

I've tried Alpari, thought they were ok, what did you make of FXCM? I had a demo with them a couple of years ago but chose not to take it further than that. Currently trading on the MahiFX web platform, impressed so far.

Hey, all I meant by that was if you placed a trade, did it go well?. I like that you only use S/R and PA, i try to follow a similar approach. I find that the more indicators I look at the more 'noise' I have to deal with. there is such a thing as too much info :) They do all have their place...

Even if you do want to get an EA in the future, learn to trade manually first. learn the industry inside and out. If you are going to invest in an EA, you need to know what you are investing in, what you want it or need it to do. Otherwise you are throwing your money away. if you want to do that...

From those posted, I have only really had experience with Alpari. They were ok so voted for them. Currently though I would say that MahiFX are my favourite.

Quite a few on that list that i've never even heard of. Are they all brokers? or are some of them resellers?

i do like Fibs, but other trend spotting tools such as ADX, RSI and Bollinger bands can be great supplements when trading using pivot points too. The market doesn't always play ball and when it comes to price movement these all have their advantages.

The CNY itself, is not a hugely influential currency, at least not at the moment. There is also a limited range of currencies that currently pair against the CNY. However, China itself, is a hugely influential nation, having interests in many major and emerging global economies.

How did you get on with this trade Adam?

The world is on a precipice, and Europe is on the brink. The Euro can survive, but expectations as to what this means have to change. I doubt that the Euro will recover to its previous highs again, as the world has evolved and markets have emerged in the last decade that were not as prominent or...

There is no need to miss out on as much of the action anymore though, with the variety of web platforms and phone apps that are becoming available. There are more opportunities now than ever to plug into a trade when away from your desk.

I think the system and strategy is more important than setting a goal or target. The only target I aim for, is to win more than I lose, to profit, and to improve my win percentage. If a trade doesn't present itself that I am comfortable with according to my system, then I won't trade. Simples...

A slowdown in China was inevitable, but that doesn not mean a fall is on the way. Internally China is fine with no doubt.

There are a huge amount of blogs out there that are great for education, but the problem is, there is also a lot of rubbish. People selling info that you can get for free, claiming ot have the holy grail when, in all honesty, if they did then why would they sell it? Some of the best forums and...
