Hi-new member here

[Beginner-mark]

Hello everyone,

I'm new to this site, and just wanted to introduce myself to everyone.

I'm from the UK and after some 2 years looking over various trading scenarios decided to go with the forex.

If I do ask any stupid questions try and be patient with me as I say i'm new to this.

Anyway, that's enough talking, thanks for reading.

Mark

Hi, Mark.

Welcome to the forum.

There is lots of good info in all the threads here. Check out the education and review sections if you've haven't already done so.

When you have a question try a search first. There's a good chance your topic as already been discussed.

Also, try the chat room Furious Angel and "the guys" have been very helpful to me during times of waiting for a trade to set up.

If $150 is in your budget, might want to consider Nick's new "DVD". I've been here for several months and can say I trust what Nick has to say on the Forex subject.

Anyway welcome and good luck.

Welcome aboard, Mark.

Damn! Two years before you decided on forex?! No one can accuse you of being impatient!

Welcome aboard Mark

It took me about 2 years also before finally diving into Forex. I had been interested in it all that time but couldn't find any good resources until I finally found babypips.com (which isn't that great but has a decent enough explanation of the basics), and subsequently, this site.

Since finally arriving here, my whole understanding of forex has changed drastically and it finally gave me the confidence to jump in with a small live account and I've gradually been learning the ropes from there.

Nick's method is very simple and it does work, but don't think you can just skim over it and think you know it all ... the basic principles are simple, but there are a lot of little nuances in actual real-life trading that make things a bit more interesting, that you can only learn day by day with real experience.

So make sure you spend lots of time going over all the material here (education, videos, various forum posts, and the recently-posted Webinar link), and don't ever feel like a question is too stupid to ask if you truly don't understand a concept and can't find an answer by searching the forums.

Good luck

Welcome aboard. No question is stupid because more than likely someone else is thinking the same question but don't have the balls to ask it.
