I agree. Don't believe everything you see on the Internet, and not just when it comes to trading.

I wish that people would atleast take a look at the source and research first, before doing falling into the traps, especially when it comes to trading.

I agree, not a good idea to follow the herd blindly.

Hi, As you can gather I'm new at this ;-). First, I want to say this is a great forum as everyone helps eachother, with a high level of friendlyness, so I'm glad to be hear. I've been reading books and playing with a forex demo account to get the mechanics of trading right as well as trying to spot some patterns and trying a few strategies. I found the amount of advice from books and the net overwhelming, so I took a step back and tried to cut this business back to the bone, and come up with some facts I could be sure of. I expect the following...

Newbie here!
My thoughts have been, if i start to win, who will be my enemy, besides Ego? Who am i going to bother? Brokers?

Newbie here too.

I have been doing demo trading for some months and I have decided to start full-time trading and I justhad my account setup with Oanda a few days ago. My question to other newbies is what home set-up would you recommend for trading? I have a home office but I want to buy dedicated equipment for my forex trading, what is your advice guys in terms of hardware? Is one screen enough? I see some people with like 4 screens etc. And does computing power really make a difference when it comes to trade execution?

Thanks and hoping to learn a lot here.

Best regards
Ben

Well i think one screen would be enough if you are a newbie. More screens would just make things complex for you in the start.

True. I don't think I could've handled multiple screens as a newbie. But it is a good idea to gradually learn how to use them.

Definitely. I won't recommend a newbie to use multiple screens if they are not ready

I agree. The reality of this market is that you create and influence your odds to a remarkable degree. I think, and don't anyone take this the wrong way, that "striping it down to the bare essence" to determine your raw odds before going in is a strange and pessimestic view.

beginners always try to bring profit very rapidly with no learning , they always looking for a short cut way. but there is not. as a result most of them quit from this stock market place.

Well said, profits take time. We need to be patient and focus on learning and practicing if we want profits to flow to our accounts.

In times of such crisis that principle applies even more - the markets are volatile and unpredictable and it is even harder and it takes longer to learn to trade.
