glad this thread has popped up as i can ask how many of you have begun trading and an instrument why in particular mostly because you were keen to participate at reoccurring price events you had been observing and gained ability to anticipate. this is exactly and the only reason i opened a trading account: saw an 'edge' in those simple yet concrete habitual events, funny enough observed through bloomie tv scrolling ticker and particularly the most active, most up/down window, now leaving a less persistent pattern yet still enduring....i am confident that if i wasn't to see how and what i ought to do and so what to expect i'd not have gotten into this biz. edit; now am into futs yet as i started trading stocks on my own accord well inspired by bloomie's scrolling ticker needed no much help or exposure to advertising innit.
if only he understood what you are saying you know I think he is just a teenager in which case good for him to be interested in trading at young age
