You won't believe this BS I've just read on Twitter
I need to catch my breath. I'm so amazed at the stupidity I've just read on Twitter. A new Forex trader bought the Great British pound to the US dollar. And he sent a tweet saying this. “I just bought the Pound against the dollar and I'm hoping that the Pound goes up now.” Next, I read a reply from some other trader. RT: “Don't worry, just think positive thoughts and you'll mak... ››› more

Am I going to lose R45,000 in my CFD trade?
Here's a question I got from Tony last week: “I am new to Trading and having bought your Red Hot Storm Trader Service I am not sure what my loss would be if a trade went sour - I use your example below: If you buy 10 Sasol shares at R450 per share and at a gearing of 10 times, you'd only have to pay R4,500 (R450 X 10). So essentially, you're buying 100 CFDs on Sasol. You'll have an e... ››› more

What nonsense! Why you don't need 10,000 hours to become a successful Forex trader
Dear Trading Tips reader, I am sure you have heard someone say that you need 10,000 hours of trading experience to master the art. This is certainly the case for many career options such as becoming a professional golfer, rugby player or even a movie star. But I really don't believe that this is the case for Forex trading. In fact, that really is nonsense as far as I'm concerned! With the... ››› more

For the first time in five years, I've added a new stock to my watch list!
If you've been reading some of my articles in Trading Tips and MoneyMorning, you'll probably know I'm quite a stubborn trader. Stubborn with the proven strategy and money management rules I've followed for the last 12 years. Stubborn with listening to the media and opinions of others.
