I would like to hear from any of you that could have any previous experience as a subscriber to a Live Trading Room.
Ive been at some demos at Traders International, Rockwell Trading and also a trading room from Australia called Your …
There are many "schools" that teach trading concepts, instruments, fundamental and technical analysis, but none, to my knowledge, will teach you a method that will make money consistently. If there were such a place, the edge they teach would soon evaporate as loads of money chase it.
So if your looking for an academic overview, there are reputable places, but don't get your hopes up they will teach you how to make money because they won't nor can't. No more than a Harvard graduate in Political Science will learn to be a successful politician.
The "edge", my friend, is clearly in and of the mind. It includes taking psychological stock of and knowing thyself but also demands fundamental knowledge and experience. The world is filled with gold but 99% of people feel more comfortable settling for less for a wealth of reasons that fill volumes of books written and unwritten. But you still need the basic tools to operate any machinery or mechanical device. Even if every school did teach what they profess there would still be casualties on the road. Not every driver is a safe or defensive one. And the markets are the epitome of the collective unconscious where transference and counter-transference are experienced on a grand scale in the fastest time frame possible. I've consistently failed at a lot of endeavors for much of my life but without those failures I never would have figured out who I am or how to achieve the grand successes that I've also experienced. So I rather view the world as a glass half full than empty and I do.
And thanks everyone for the great information here and the link to that other site, Mike.
In fact, most folks wouldn't even want to attend Harvard.
Personally I love the structure that school affords.
Others learn better on their own. Still others throw in
the towel too soon or don't want to study at all.
There are a million different ways to learn and to do.
They are all valid. The key is to knowing the type of
environment in which one thrives, because nurture
influences nature. Daily sermon [/off]
Ed is a most unusual and extremely interesting fellow. Some very successful traders and/or money managers consider participation in the fortnightly meetings of Ed's tribe in Austin, TX, worth flying in for from all over the US.
why spend money when the best things on trading are available free here in futures.io (formerly BMT) and on the web , I would receommed learn a basic setup stick to it , master it and own it and you will do just fine
Good luck !
Sincerely ,
