Introducing myself, SelimTrades

Hello people,

I’ve been watching this forum for quite a time now, never realy felt like introducing myself untill now :slight_smile:

I’m Selim Ünver, a 23 aged young man, living in The Netherlands, from Turkish origin…
Trading for about few years now, started with stock trading with derivatives (turbo’s/speeders, quite popular in europe). Since about a year I started studying day-trading forex with cfd’s. I have a financial background with college/highschool studies like financial administration and financial services management. My goal is to become a full-time day-trader. I’m quite familair with technical analysis and have read a lot about them. My favorite books are Elder’s ‘‘The New trading for a living’’ book, ‘‘How I made a million dollars on the stock market’’ and Steve Nison’s candlestick chart books. Can you guys adivse me a book I must read? Perhaps about technical analysis?

I had decided to explore the ins and outs of cfd’s using the Plus500 platform (market maker). I had the idea that this market maker was scamming me, the data showing on their chart was not matching the original market-mid data. I once noticed a price difference of 300 pips!! which triggered my SL while the trade should be profitable if the price was not adjusted that much by plus500. Made a complaint about this, resulted in nothing.

Since then I decided to go for an ECN broker. I’m now exploring FXpro. I prefer MT4 for it’s chart, but in my opinion cTrader is much more user-friendly for placing orders. Since FXpro is compatitable with both platforms, I use both MT4 and cTrader. One for it’s chart, one for placing orders.

After I feel ready for it, I’m willing to try out WHS Futurestation Nano. Does anyone of you have experience with this broker? WHSelfinvest…

I would love to meet new trading friends on this forum.
