Companies which train in trading - advice on which one...

JEN,

saying things like "this is not a get rich quick scheme" and "there will be losses as well as gains" etc

Advertising in all its forms is still just advertising to get your money. The chances are that over the longer term you will get a better result from your managed fund than ANY of the trading systems/guru tip sheets out there.

What percentage return on your money are you looking for and why??

Are your goals realistic, or derived from advertising??

Why don't you want to work at getting educated in trading/investment??

brty

Jen,

I was once a novice just like you and I did not discover this forum. I traded live without trading education of any substance but I was fortunate that in 2004 it was the start of the bull market. I lost some money for about a year and a half and then decided that I need some quick education and quickly.

I bought an education package, I won't name here, and though it was expensive I did recoup the money within 6 months of finishing the course. To be fair the bull market was still at stage 2 so it was also a case of luck. Had I fast forward a few years later my experience would have been different because 2007 - 2009 was an exceptionally bad time to be a long trader.

I suggest you go to the library and you can read these books for free

Secrets for profiting in bull & bear market - Sam Weinstein
Trading for a living - Dr Alexander Elder

Worth a read and I ocassionally do refer to them.

If you want some general discussion of my personal experience here is my email,



Cheers,

James

It is a pity that Jen has posted "I don't really care what market I trade on as long as the time I need to spend each day is minimal. " because I think her original query was sound.

I love researching companies, and I have been investing in the share market for 10 years while I work full time, but I have not done well and would like to improve my future share choices.

So I follow forums like these trying to gain knowledge, but it is difficult to gain the right information to help.

Why not ask a specific question?
