Hello,
My name is Brian, I'm 35 and from Minnesota. I was in an *accident*and life hasn't been the same (Wasn't an accident, but sounds nicer). I'm trying to become a successful Forex trader and have some purpose in life. I'm not looking to make a lot of money, just some money would be rewarding. As, I don't have any other options. (When I say don't have other options, I mean I can't work a typical job and so-and-so). I could trade different securities etc.. I hope that I can be successful on my own. But, if need be someone could be able to help. I apologize if I have been too open. I have just had a real rough stretch health wise. Thank you for reading! Brian

Wish you the best,

imho, understanding fundamental aspect of our instrument (which economic indicators the central banks are watching) will help greatly in the long run.

Work on your mind game. Honestly, that is the best advice I've been told when I started trading. If yo can't control and monitor condition of your mind it will be hard to make a good living trading. Incidentally, a good mind game will help you with your health!

I have an account with IB and have been trying to trade daily (Health permitting). I've also started a journal here and have been trading mostly small amounts..
Best regards,
Brian

I don't use it, I guess it's filtered. So what you see is a bit distorted. Something like that... There's a couple threads about it.
I use IQ feed and it has been pretty good.. It is like $50 for the basic service and $25 for Forex data.

So far, what is your impression of IB as a broker?
