    Hi igor, Thank you for your advice. I checked out the books in BAMM. All technical analysis books are overwelming. I decided to buy "A Beginners guide for Short term trading by Toni turner". Let me start with this book. I am putting off the decision to buy any software as of now.

  4. What a bunch of garbage!

    If you made any serious money trading you wouldn't be wasting time writing 1000 words per post. Sure seems like you're selling something.

    I wonder what it is? Oh do tell us, master.

  7. I use software to back test my trading methods and learn if the idea is profitable.

    Software allows me to compare different trading methods. I prefer some methods over others.

    I believe software helps me avoid losses. The cost of software is less than one big loss. I think software is worthwhile.

  9. lol... FLOMAX is a drug to help you pee (it's for men who have enlarged prostate glands!). Gotta love ET for throwing a curveball to a serious punter asking a serious question.:D

  10. I'm not going to go into what trading software is - there are already plenty of posts here. What's important is that you have a strategy and methodology to apply to whatever software you choose. Software isn't a magic bullet. For each person that uses a software package, there is a different method.

    I'd encourage you to learn as much as you can - read, talk to successful traders, etc. - and you'll eventually find a methodology that's right for you - your personality, timeframe and time commitment. Software's just a tool. You have to make the decisions.
