    I was wondering if anyone here was a day trader/hedge fund trader. I was wondering how they liked it. I'm thinking about going into a new direction with my job and trading looks to be one of the choices thought about most. There is a firm in manhattan that i'm looking at now that may seem promising. Just wondering if anyone had any feedback or advice.
    Thanks

    Mods, please move this to the appropriate section.



    Now, to answer your question. I have been trading, beginning with my education in the matter, since Jan. 04, almost 2 years now. Had great success thusfar. But, this game is extremely complicated, takes mental discipline, blah blah blah.

    I basically used this website as a way to track my learning progress from beginning until now. I highly suggest you take the time to at least read some of my threads.

    Here is the next to most current thread on the issue:
    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=20764&highlight=currency

    It has 700 responses and has been viewed over 17,000 times.
    In the first post I make in that thread you will find links to the original threads that track my progress in chronological order. Reading these will help a lot as well.

    Trust me, this is a lot of reading, but worth it in my opinion.

    Funny, I didn't realize until now how many posts there were in these 4 or 5 threads!

    Also, what type of trading are you looking to get involved with? Daytrading? Swing Trading?

    Which markets are you wanting to trade? Currency? Stocks? Commodity?

    What experience do you have? Etc...

    I'm looking to get involved more heavily in day trading for the most part. I'm a stockbroker, I've been trading, but not that heavily. I'm also looking to get involved in trading forex as well as options, etc, pretty much just full on trading. My money, clients money, and proprietory money as well (principal and agency transactions). I'm looking to head in a new direction and I believe this would be best suited for me.

    Well then, my threads will help you out since I daytrade/scalp the Spot FX market.
