Hello everyone!

I wanted to say hello and introduce myself. My name is Silver and I have been interested in trading and investment since I was a teenager. I have some trading experience, but at the moment I am trading SIM, since the last time I was trading live (CFDs) I ended up loosing about 10-11% of my capital and I decided to put live trading on hold for while to try SIM trading. I found out about futures.io in Youtube and I really liked the material there. So I decided to join the forum two weeks ago and this is my first post. I am looking forward to educate myself and find other traders to talk to. I hope that my post will turn out ok, since I have no experience with forums before.

You should quickly see that becoming an Elite member is a good idea. I just had my first year anniversary on this site and without I would be really lost, as in lost a lot of money on not so well intentioned vendors and bad trades. I am taking things really slow and am comfortable with that. I wonder what all you think contributed to your losses??

BTW - this is my first forum, chat, and I don't do Facebook or twitter (well I just started twitter a little for trading), I have learned it is about soaking it in and contributing when you have an itch to, I have also learned two rules about trading and starting out: Be careful and Be efficient.

Best of luck to you,

John

Scary to here this story. It is good you have the courage to share and willingness to heed direction. As I beginner myself, I wonder what you attribute your losses to. Did you have a plan or did you just enter on whims, for instance?

It mostly was basic TA and Gut feel.

Hi everyone!

I am very new to the idea of futures trading, but would love to become successful at it. I have limited ideas on where to start. After reading a lot online and even throughout this forum, I am trying to avoid getting suckered into trading systems that are a waste of time and money. I am here to learn as much as I can!

Hi everyone,

I trade mostly US treasuries and am waiting for the FOMC meeting to be over. Ran across this forum so decided to sign up. Looks like a good place to trade ideas.

See you on the forums.
