I use Forex Club because they have the best interpretation of PAMM services I've ever seen.

Well, last couple of month was didn't bring anything worth writing about. The profit amounted 6% and 2.5% correspondingly and I'm starting to think that this result is not as bad as I thought previously (especially looking at how other investors get their zeros and minuses).

Well, I actually don't understand why we should do anything in our life that we don't enjoy. I personally enjoy the very idea of trading, enjoy spending less time working than my friends, enjoy to learn something new etc.

This is how I choose a broker. The first and the foremost for me - a broker should be regulated. Then goes the minimum deposit and the leverage. Then withdrawal process - it should be fast and without any fuss. Then the customer service - I'd like to have an 24/7 opportunity to communicate with someone who can help me in solving technical problems. And the last is the presence of various bonuses and programs.

I'm trying to trade for about 1.5 years, still studying hard.

That makes me happy too. I know how this feature reallised in other brokers (saw on YouTube and on my friends' screens) and I still believe FC doesn't have any competitors here. BTW my manager made about 15% this month

Thanks for your advice and experience! I've come up with the similar decision - the break is surely needed. Really hope that my idea of giving my dimes to a money manager can help me to earn some spare time (hopefully, profits too ).

It actually does. Sometimes it doesn't let me to fall asleep at all since I'm thinking of how I could avoid that losses or it might be the very time to switch the strategy etc. Really want to get rid of that bad habit - it bothers me more than smoking! :crap:

The thing is that a person attending such courses should not consider the information as the Ultimate Truth. Instead it worth thinking of every word that comes from the mouth of a coach. And of course noone's going to tell this person how to make billions from $1000 in a month.

The month was not as good as I was hoping: the yield was about 0.3% since the manager a little bit overcelebrated the holidays. Thanks god I managed to pick a new manager before it was too late for my dimes. But in general, the service looks more and more comfortable to use.

Gonna make my wife to bring a small copy of me into this world

I use Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 - it's a complex software that consists of a firewall, AV and anti-malware. For the whole perioud of using (about a year) didn't have any problems with any kind of malware.

Merry Xmas and happy New Year to everyone! May all of us enjoy huge profits and low taxes.

So I became an investor in Forex Club. For the month yield was about 5% - not so much but I believe it's going to grow in a course of time. Merry Christmas and happy New Year everyone!

Writing about my own 2-months experience of live trading on their StartFX 2 platform. First of all I want to admit that the company has made the real breakthrough in bringing complete newbies into FX trading. It organizes multiple trading courses for ‘traders’ with absolutely different levels of understanding (from housewives to managers), and their trading platform StartFX 2 is helping company with it. I was interested in StartFX 2 because of a) great usability, b) competitive trading conditions (when I was opening an account I didn’t really understand that term but my friend being a trader told me to dare). The trading platform has 4 levels of interface with the learning curve going from 1st to 4th: the 1st level is for absolute dummies while the 4th is for «advanced beginners». The process of opening a deal is explained step-by-step, all important fields of the platform’s main window are supplied with text balloons containing various tips. I’d say, it’s absolutely impossible to do something wrong here :-D As for order execution: there’re some requotes during news releases but they cannot spoil the whole picture of the platform. And the withdrawal. I did it only once using my credit card – the process took for about 10 minutes, no additional charges were taken. To sum up: StartFX 2 is absolutely great platform for newbies and I don’t see any of it’s direct competitors. But I don’t think that I’m going to stay on it for a long time since my trading skills are improving and I’m starting to feel the lack of instruments. Good luck.

Qft. It's just a terminology.

I also would like to recommend BabyPips school since it contains tons of useful information. Almost all my friends and colleagues started trading with that school.

Well, they are: Preferred Stocks: Closing Table - Markets Data Center - WSJ.com AFAIK, these securities are usually chosen by traders who want to earn dividends.

BTW guys does anyone of you have experience in PAMM investing or something like that? I'm asking since FC launched Investment Account service that looks quite interesting in the contest of future returns.

My 50 cents about dieting. If a person who wants to optimize it's daily ration is a smoker, he has a great opportunity to improve his health. Just stop smoking and cut down the amount you eat simultaneously. The point is that a person's mind cannot think about smoking while the stomach is almost empty. As a result, your thoughts are equally distributed between these two feelings and the process of adapting goes smooth. I write it because it already helped me to lose about 5 kilo per month and quit smoking. Good luck.

I'm sure the day when I say to myself that I'm completely satisfied with my education will be the day of my death as a trader. One of the trader's constant needs is to continue education in order to keep up with the market and with other traders. Japanese word Kaizen I guess suits here the most.

I don't know about them either but it doesn't really matters to me. Actually I don't trust various bucketshops that offer you an opportunity to win a Lotus Evora, new fridge or similar stuff while their real spreads getting near 70+ pips. When I choose a broker, I judge by it's real trading conditions, not marketing incentives.

Well, the question then would sound like 'who's lobby is stronger, oil companies or auto-makers'? I also hope that the day will come when the ecological friendliness comes to the fore. I mean like the real one, not today's obsession with electrocars and related bullshit. But unfortunately for now the price of energy plays more important role than it's greeness.

You're right, this spread applies only to Rumus platform Their Start FX2, for example, has 0 spread.
