Thanks mate, I'll have a look through that thread. Anyway I'm off for tonight, will come back to this thread tomorrow afternoon.

Alright so from the feedback I've gotten here and from the results of some brief research I'm starting to like the idea of an index fund more. Question is where do I start? How do I go about deciding which fund to buy into? Which tools should I use? Of course I can't afford to fork out a ton for...

I was considering starting something of my own too. A friend of a friend has a cheap source (which he won't unfortunately name) of protein powder and he does quite well selling it on Ebay. It's possible I could try something similar, just need to find a gap in the cheap supply of a certain...

Good points, I did look at gold charts and was turned off by the last three years. Perhaps I will go with an index, it's just that naturally of course I'm worried about another crisis but I guess I'm not going to find many, if any, investments free of such worries.

Thanks for all the info. That does sound like a wise choice, but what about if there were to be another GFC? Looking at some charts of the ASX200 it doesn't look like it took it the last GFC very well. Gold on the other hand I believe increases in price during a crisis due to people flocking to...

So an investment account that was opened upon my birth by my grandparents recently matured (when I turned 18). I have a bit over $7000 to invest, how should I go about it? I have a full time job (working gap year) and will likely not be needing the money any time soon. Am wanting to invest in...

As I'm new I'm stepping in tentatively so am not investing much initially. So trading few trades may be the best way to maximise profit. Don't like the thought of the burden of the brokerage costs looming over every trade I make. On the other hand it seems daunting making so few trades.

Yeah I'm not a very experienced programmer, and I have been weighing up the benefits of a very tightly guided trading system which operates within strict rules compared to a more flexible system. I'll give that book a look, thanks for the resource.

I'm reading several resources on breakout trading at the moment and over the next year or so plan on putting together my own system like I have seen so many people recommend. I'm objective and think I would be less susceptible to the emotional roller coaster that trading takes you on. It's...

Oh wow, thanks for the replies, thought this thread would not continue. I guess I'm to used to forums where threads only last a few hours. Anyway, I'm trialing a whole bunch of software and on Incredible Charts I made a basic scan. I know it's not great, but I'm just experimenting. I...

Alright, thanks for the links guys. I'll get it sorted tomorrow morning

Unfortunately they don't seem to cover this issue off in these tutorials. Still lots of helpful info though to get me started

Alright, I'm fine with having to import it every time I open the program, for the duration of my trail. Thanks for the links guys

Just got the Amibroker trial, been having a look around and I like it a lot. Just wondering how I add Australian stocks? Because it comes with US stocks. Can't seem to find an option for this.

Re: Break out Trading Searching Methods? Alright, I'll look into it
