Hello everyone I am new to Forex and I am looking on how to get started. When I say started it means from day 1, what is the first thing I have to learn?

Babypips is the first step, then open a demo account and start getting used to the platform and how to open/close trades, set stops, targets and so on.
Good luck
Good luck

This is good..... 
[FONT='Arial','sans-serif']Hello you all, I just came across this thread and yes babypips is good but some people don’t have the time to read and do all the grades. So besides tradeview where else can one find a complete overview?[/font]
In trading, there is no bullshit. You either make money or you don't.

amamil - After looking at some of your previous posts, I.E.
Ok I like your graph but I am not getting what is a Fibonacci or how do you use it?

"...violence or arguments..."?
You'd be well advised to develop some mental toughness. If you're intimidated by enthusiastic banter among anonymous forum rats, trading is probably not for you.
IOW stefy, grow a pair.
You're welcome.

Thank you all for all this information, I didn’t mean for any forum violence or arguments. If this is not the best place to learn than please redirect me to a forum where I can ask, some of you all seem to hostile with beginners and I don’t want to cross your paths.
This thread sums up most on FF and it is only 1 page
You asked for help.Tjpld answered and told you to go to babypips.--Good advice...Have you done that?
The thread then went on a journey of its own..as most threads on here do!
MrGreen,who is one of the best people on here for helping others,has answered a post that has been deleted and it has thrown the thread off track.
Go to babypips -go through the course-then get back with some questions.
People on here will always help people who help themselves
Good luck.
Trading is mentally very challenging.
You will learn a lot about yourself.
You will have to persevere.
There is no website that will inform you how to trade successfully,you have to gather bits of information and assemble it yourself,but it can be done.
Your negative thoughts are the biggest obstacle you have to overcome.
The greatest enemy of a good plan is the dream of a perfect plan.

Good post, steve.
flyman and kellyk, oh jeez, where do I begin? Are you guys like, trying to score or something? I'm guessing you are guys because no woman I know would post such blatantly sexist drivel on an open forum.
First off, "stefy" is a cyber persona. The only way to prove beyond a doubt he/she is female (let alone a "young chick"!) is with a physical examination.
But let's assume stefy is, in fact, a woman. So what? Are you implying women are incapable of mental toughness? That women should be "protected" from harsh language or off color jokes? Horseshit.
The markets make no distinction between male/female, old/young, black/white. The markets are not polite and if stefy is scared by mean ol' opie999 (another cyber persona), she should find something else to do with her time and money. Maybe knitting or flower arranging would be more suitable to her delicate feminine sensibilities, ya think?
