Learning to trade for a living

Hi fellow readers,

I will be sharing my experiences and teaching the different ways to invest or trade. I am still a young and learning trader, who lost quite a tens of thousands of dollars during the period of August 2011 to December 2011. To many who should know it, there was a crash in August 2011 after the US Debt Ceiling was being raised.

I learnt trading the hard way. I started off trading live without attending any proper trading classes, and very little reading on trading books. I was somehow introduced by my dad to get into trading as it was easy money to me (at that point in time); facing the computer everyday to get money instantly. However, trading was never easy.

As everyone should know this commonly used phrase in trading - "Just buy & hold and you will not lose any money." This was the very first thing that I learnt from my dad when I started off. This very phrase killed many traders (which I strongly believed) and myself. I strike-off the "not" for a reason, you will not lose any money provided you understand how the market works and time your entry appropriately - I will talk about it in depth in the later sections.

In other to give my readers the relevant information to each person, I decided to provide a contents page below and click on the links to see what would like to.
