Jump to new
Hi All,

Just a quick note to introduce myself and my publication YourTradingEdge magazine. Let me know if you have any questions you need answered regarding trading or active investing and i will pass them onto our team for you...

Happy reading and profitable trading

YTE
 

sure

i have a question or two

is this a sure fire way to make a lot of money?

is it all for free?

will you make me rich?
 


yes i have a question.

How come you have taken to advertising in a beginners thread instead of doing the right thing and offering the owner of the site a few bucks to advertise properly here ?

is your publication free?

Why is it that since you joined in 09 that you have given NO input except to try and flog your product to learners that can get all the info they need here for free?

sorry that was 3 questions.
 

i,ve worked out the edge......your trading edge would be ..... not to use your trading edge.... then you would have a trading.... edge that would not be their trading edge but your trading edge..... but not your trading edge !!! simple ha !!!
 
hi!

im kfc.
im a newbie whose been doing a lot of reading.. particularly trying to get a hand of all the books you gentlemen reccommended- esp fundamental vs TA. ive been reading a fair few of the posts but at the moment, it seems to be all calculus when im learning algebra. but getting to it

Additionally, im getting the idea that the stockmarket is kinda like blackjack? and counting cards equivalent is say buying during a recession/depression? otherwise its more like gambling? by the time you see a *good* company, most of the profits are gone because either:
-its made during IPO
-people with contacts get there first


any pro traders views on this?
 
hello all,

been lurking for a few months. Ive been looking into short term trading in various markets and just learning before i dive in. Thanks for the wealth of information so far and in the future.
 
G'day All,

Im New here (obviously) and hope to get some pointers & learn more about share trading.

28 yr old bloke with a little extra cash lying around hoping to make some moola on the market with it... Term Deposit accounts just dont cut the mustard for me
 
Hi Beaver, good luck with your investing. I'm happy with a term deposit at the moment. kennas

Looks as though thousands of others are also, Kennas. Cash deposits are higher than in many years.

Agree to an extent, Julia;

I've parked about 40% of my lt funds in fixed interest, while letting the other 60% work hard in the markets. My crystal ball suggests that our ASX couls face a sluggish sideways struggle into late August; but after that, I anticipate the overall trend to pick up.
Funny enough, since the other Julia declared August 21st as "Crunch Time", other pundits seem to come around to a similar view: Markets like certainty, and if our pollies from either persuasion believe they're able to make a real difference to the economy, they're deluding themselves - IMHO.

Enough of that mental detour. What I meant to say to Beaver et al: You can have your cake and eat it too.
Play it safe: park some cash in a prudently-timed term deposit, while learning how the markets work with smaller amounts.
 
I am a little overwhelmed with the amount of websites & 'experts' with advice out there on where/when/why to buy & sell in the market. I have a few free 30 day subscriptions with some sites that I got after creating a trade account with an online broker.

Sometimes they can be quite contradictive. And I am sinical at the best of times so I dont know who to trust! If everyones in the game to make $$ then the advice given is probably just to improve their portfolio, not necessarily mine.

My first ever trades I have bought into a few miners, not big bucks, $10K roughly. The advice given seemed to suggest these will perform well. But am I more looking to make quick profits. Definitely not long term investing here.

A few years ago my bro was really crankin in the sharemarket, makin reaaallly good money during the .com Boom. Then the Boom when Bust & I lost big time. So since then I have been too afraid to have a crack myself, till now.
 

Hi again, Beaver;
I can well understand your sense of awe and bewilderment about "who to trust".
Ask yourself this: If I had a sure-fire bet how to get rich - how likely would I be to share that recipe with "free 30-day subscribers"?

Whether you want to be a long-term investor or a short-term trade, or anything in between: You have to spend time, money, and effort learning the trade.

Rather than copy/paste earlier articles, I'll invite you to browse my blog site, starting with this article. There's more "on" all kinds of related topics. Browse and enjoy.
 
Hi although not entirely new to trading and investing I am now becoming active and really need some help in identifying some starting systems and strategies I am mainly interested in FX trading.

I am also interested finding information on what tools traders use for identifying setups.

I hope this site will be able to help. I look forward to learning with you.

Cheers
Brad
