Hello. Glad to be here.

I've been involved in the markets for long enough that it's a shame I'm not a millionaire yet from trading.

Over the last year or two I've moved over to futures and the the future seems a lot brighter now after a number of years in retail forex.

Attached you'll find an excel file that I created for real time demo trading with thinkorswim instead of opening the paper money side.

It is a bit crude, but, you can insert instruments of your choice with tick size and tick value in the box outlined on the left of the sheet.

Options symbols can be generated as well. Enjoy!

Hey guys, I am a 25 year old guy looking to learn about working the stock market so I can expand my finances. Currently I am working as a massage therapist and want to really start to use the money I am making to invest and catapult my finances.

First things first is I know there is a lot I need to learn. I plan on becoming an Elite member soon so I can chew my way through the videos and take as much knowledge in as possible and thus cut my learning curve and my chances of destroying my bank out the first time around like so many do.

If there are any videos you'd recommend for me I'd be happy to recieve that advice. Still trying to just get a grasp of this. I am working my way through several books right now including: The Intelligent Investor, Neatest Little Guide to Stock Market Investing, Day Trading Academy (Ebook), and Surviving DayTrading. (Ebook) Looking forward to learning from all the knowledgeable members here and expanding my world of trading. Cheers.

Hi Mike,

I am a retired Brig Gen, now running a small aviation company. I used to trade just around the dot.com plunge and paid a steep tuition in learning about the markets and controlling emotion. Time spent in my military career kept me away until now. My wife and I are restarting together and hope that and education based, crawl walk, run approach will help us to be successful.

Possibly a security feature on the site to prevent multiple accounts on the same IP. @Big Mike should be able to fix that?

Hi All,

Moving up from retail forex (with MT4), to Dukascopy (jForex) and now professionally to LMAX with Multicharts and/or Protrader PTMC.

As trading becomes more and more profitable, demands for broker and software also get higher.

Now i'm trying to get a grip on Multicharts, which is pretty awsome for a Raw range bar & Volume trader. Need some help now and then, hope i'll find it here. In return, i also will share my experience as a recently started professional on indices.

Finally my apologies for my limited English. I'm from The Netherlands so not a native speaker.

Ciao.

Over the last years I read my books on trading and have decided to try the trading platforms for simulation.
I'm interested in forex and futures and have spent quite some time to understand these products.
I'm also interested in good indicators and crypto currencies (bitcoin, ethereum...)
Have a good day!

Right now if I find the holy grail of trading I probably wouldn't know it.
Probably change to a more promising system within a week or so.
Sigh.
The search goes on
Maybe will find some light here.

Trading is a craft, not a secret code you can crack. Learn it the hard way, and you might even succeed.

Glad to join your forum.
Want to hear how others make money in this market. It has not been easy for me.
Need a buddy. 2 heads are better than 1 I believe.

Hi All,

New to the forum....been watching the markets since Aug 2015...developed a number of strategies around a very volatile market only to watch them transition into what we are currently seeing prior to taking my strategies live. As a greenhorn trader I didn't realize that the current low volatile market is the typical market, so...back to the ole drawing board...watching the eb and flow of the new market (new to me anyway) and developing ideas for strategies to fit this particular style market. Good times! Anyway! I hope to make some long lasting trading pals through this forum in time! And of course, I also aspire to become a successful trader

Happy Trading!
