Spent a bit lurking on the forums following a thread or two that looked interesting, and figured it was time to get this part done.
I go by JD4 here and on the MQL sites, actually saw babypips in someone’s post there.
I live in the U.S. and am one of the many people who will have to ultimately deal with all of the (insert heavy sarcastic tone here) wonderful regulations the government has in place to “protect” us, because we apparently can’t be trusted to fend for ourselves.
My skill level is currently learning prospective trader, and I am trying to learn more about the forex market, and hopefully learn about how to avoid the pitfalls as much as learn about how to use it to make some money. I know that there is not one “holy grail” (according to the area titles, there are actually THOUSANDS of them 
) trading system out there, but it is fun to dream. In the mean time, will either be trying to find or build one that will work out for me, and not make me broke in the process.
I sometimes tend to be long-winded(fingered?) when talking about something, so apologies in advance if it gets to be a bit much.
Hope to see you guys on the forums.
