Thank you very much for your good advice. I will take a "go slow" cautious approach to trading.
Best regards,
Alan

Hello
Hi Everyone
Though been trading for over 10 years, new to this site. I have an interest in UK and U.S. stocks and trade through CFDs.
Based in Berkshire U.K., anyone else in the area and would be looking to chat more about stocks?
2008 has actually been my most successful year of trading, all the volatility provided some useful trading opportunities. I consider myself a short-mid term trader, rather than a day trader. The big rebound in small cap miners is proving very profitable in the last 2 weeks but overall I think the rebound from mid November is a little on the overdone side. The S&P 500 has now rebounded from around 750 to 927! Q4 Earnings will be pretty bad and probably dampen the rally. I believe oil was oversold in the $40 zone and am holding ETC crude until low $50's.
Current holdings are: Cambrian Mining, Hambledon Mining, Lamprell, ETC Crude oil, Coal of Africa, Antisoma and Ashland Inc.
Tend to buy alot of U.S. companies but have been selling out on the rally - trade Conoco, Google, Apple, Transocean, Foster Wheeler, Halliburton, Qualcomm etc.

Hi Daniel
I hope I'm typing this in the correct space as it is not very clear where to do so. I've been sports investing for over 45 years but am interested in trying to put Forex on auto pilot (A BOT). If you have a landline and live in the UK I can call you for a chat to see if there is any way we could help each other to make some money. My contact details are:

Hi all,
Ive just started working for a forex company and although I have apparently learnt alot in the short time I've been here and am quite suited to trading, I wondered if anyone could give some pointers in how to generate clients. I've fluked quite a few big deals just through friends and family reccommending me, but seem to be hitting a brick wall when pitching clients...
any ideas would be well received!
Thanks in advance
Will

selling techniques
Hi,
In all my years in sale the best advice i ever came across was for Brian Tracy. Google him and you will come up with a lot of info.
I suggest buying the CD collection 'advanced selling techniques' it transformed my skills and i pick up new things every time i listen to it.
gives you a great insight into the theory behind sales and teaches consultative selling.
Also google Dale Carnegie his sales material is also great.
i hope this helps

Hi Will - In the past I have managed to negotiate huge alliances as I had an extremely good proposal to offer. Alliances is the way to go to get masses of clients on board but at anytime let alone now in these difficult financial times you MUST offer something of value. Nowadays, consumers/clients want to see a track record (results) and preferably with an iron cast gurantee. Finally clients want a UK landline for support. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Monty Burn
cheers for the replies, just seems that even though prospective clients are interested with all the doom and gloom in the markets it just seems that they would rather stick to getting ripped off by the bank instead of saving on their trades...frustrating as i can see the benefits and even use my employers myself to send funds to pay my mortgage in spain and send money to my ex in the states...for those reasons i need as many clients as humanly possible in as little time as possible,unfortunately dont think i joined the profession at a fantastic time!

Hi guys
I'm new to this whole forex thing and trying to make sense of it all. I'm a self-employed web programmer (asp.net). Receiving money in various currencies through Paypal got me thinking that I really should try to be smart about how and when I exchange, and that thought led me into exploring the whole internet-forex world. Currently based in Inverness, but hope to relocate to sunnier climes in due course.
cheers
Mark

Hi Everyone, Happy New Year!
I've been a member for years but, selfishly, have never found time to post a message.
I manage a hedge fund (L/S EMEA Equity, fundametal/earnings focus) and have the CFA, but am much more interested in technicals and trading. My goal is to manage my small PA account into a big enough account and then quit work to do this full time. I love my job but hate the lack of flexibility (can't work from home, long hours, limited holidays, bosses, etc).
I currently trade single stocks and just recently have been interested in hourly index binaries. My bet size is small, and I'm focussing on getting consistently profitable. Risk management is my first priority, I have stopped looking for a silver bullet in trading, and am working on my current weakness which is a fear of losing.
Cheers, Iain

thanks mburn2 , very nice to have grand'mates ( no offense intended ) who answer with experience , I think this is what we newbie rookies need
Wondering what strategies have to look in , as there's so much information in this forum, I would like to skip bad for the better ,...
I'm noticing that seems common fact to pass some time experimenting BEFORE losing money , but I understand this lag-to-the-trade may very well vary on the connection you estabilish with the market in the beginning , and this connection could be a good former strategy - which nevertheless every nice trader tends to cut on his own attitude.
What do you suggest from a 45 years investing point of view ?
