when I set up my trading simulator at oanda…what kind of tools will they provide? charts, trend spotting…etc?
also- when I paper-traded agricultural futures, I used the bollinger ban, and was an end-of-day trader, not day-trader, which tecnique should I use for trading forex if I was end-of-day trading w/ futures? or is it just straight day-trading w/ forex?
Just take your time learning what you need to know before rushing into trades. As long as it appears to be a foreign language to you I would advise that you learn to speak the language before going on a vacation if you know what I mean. You may want to make a smaller deposit once you know the basics and only trade 0.01 lots until you achieve consistency and work out your trading strategy.
