    I posted this before but not sure if it actually got posted:

    Hey guys, so I'm sure you must get these threads a lot but here I go.

    So basically I'm completely new and know absolutely nothing about trading.
    Im 27, professional poker player currently living in the UK with ~$10k to get started.

    What threads, books or videos can you guys recommend to someone with no knowledge of trading?

    I have seen a few people talking about having some sort of coaching? Is it worth looking into right now for me? What sort of cost are involved with finding a mentor/coach?

    What are the most reputable brokers here in the UK? What other software do I need to get started? Are there any other fees?

    Do I have to pay taxes on profit? Losses? (UK)

    I can think of a load more questions but I'll leave it at this for now!

    Thanks.
