Another Tick in the Wall

Community Introduce Yourself

Hi all,

I’ve joined this forum as I find that immersing myself in an online community to be a constructive and helpful method of being engaged with something. I’m from London, UK and have reached something of a turning pt in my life in the past year. The discipline, focus, and resolve required for trading appeals to me, and I am really enjoying learning about it. I’ve become a total neophyte for it.

I am new to forex, been trading a few demos since the beginning of the year with limited success. But now I realise that whilst I continue to copy trades and learn through processes on demo, I should also get involved with likeminded people, through a forum like this.

Babypips seems like the premiere (free!) forum for fx, and the school offers up a veritable wealth of information which I’m working through. Can only thank the guys behind it for their dedication! The daily blogs are also great, and I am looking forward to contributing to this community.

I am currently writing a trading plan to set in process a routine to follow and more accurately deduce exactly what I would like to achieve. What is the etiquette for posting up trading plans for people to ‘peer-review’ so to speak?

Thanks to everyone here

Good thread-title … welcome to the forum. :cool:

I think this speaks highly of your chances: [I]distaste for and avoidance of[/I] the discipline, focus and resolve required for trading seems to feature quite strongly among those who “don’t ever make it”, so finding those essentials appealing should put you in quite a good place, I think (but perhaps I’m biased: I’ve always liked them, too!).

People do sometimes post them. Generally, they get pretty polite responses unless there’s a specific invitation/suggestion to “be very frank”, or whatever.

I [I]think[/I] they probably belong in the section called “Forextown” (rather than “Newbie Island” or anywhere else … but the moderators will probably move it for you, if you post it in the wrong place, or if I’m mistaken about that, anyway).

Looking forward to hearing more from you.
