I’ve been paper trading for a while to learn. Interested on forex, metals, crypto, energy, and commodities sectors but forex and metals are my bias for several reasons.
-more opportunities to trade, behavior changes based on time/day
-more exchanges involved in a single pair, behavior changes based on which exchange is open
-more funding opportunities, I’d like to start applying for prop firms by Q1 2022
Hey and welcome Jesseca!
Your goals mirror mine somewhat and Forex is my first foray into trading. Feel free to ask away in case you have clarifications.
Might not hurt to give a online course a quick look, though you might not need it. Hoping you get funded soon!
kind regards, Dims
Well, you have many markets to choose from - and which suits you and your lifestyle. Live trading is a whole new ballgame, so I suggest you play around with a small live account before you consider a prop firm evaluation process.
I’ve blown a chance of trading a $5,000 CTI LIVE account - which was losing my £200 deposit. Most prop firms use demo accounts to qualify. Not much fun in that.
At the end of the day, experience is King, or Queen in your case…
