How do you feel about BTC/ETH/XMR vs USDT/EUR?

Would you be interested in making the world a better place by killing yourself you useless drain on society you?

Probably not.

I worked in electronic trading for years and I keep reading about people who are 'doing a trade'.Like GBPUSD will be a cable trade. But a trade is a single transaction. Is it discretionary fags who are clueless to the glory of CTM?

The main reason I got into forex is the leverage, since btc exchanges don't offer big leverage I don't trade it. I don't know what is there to feel about USD/EUR, my strategy doesn't require me to keep up with the news.

Poorfag came home after a long day of wageslaving to sperg about people richer than him on Sup Forums lmao

No.

Fake and gay.

Op is not a trader anyways, this thread is cancer

Forex. that's that thing i saw advertised on an infomercial at 2:00a a few years ago, isn't it?

how much do you invest, and how much do you profit?

Enjoy your leverage pounding your ass into an abyssal debt you mongoloid fag

Have you read Rob Carver's Systematic Trading? Why is it so good?

Why aren't you buying penny stocks?

My dad just gave me $50k as investment money for my 20th, where should I put it?

>Forex. that's that thing i saw advertised on an infomercial at 2:00a a few years ago, isn't it?
How am I supposed to know?

>how much do you invest, and how much do you profit?
Depends on the year. Usually it's a 30% return a year. Started with 1k but quickly raised it to 50k by making mobile apps.

>how long does it take to see a return after initial investing?
Depends on the person, how much you consider a 'return' and how much you invest.

>how many years have you been at it?
About 5

Any triangular arbitrate tips today?

No I haven't.

They are highly illegal in my country and my strategy probably wouldn't work with them.

Idk.

You do it on your own or at a brokerage (whatever forex trading houses are called)? Where'd you learn? How long have you been trading? Been knterested in forex for years, but only know two people in it, one at wells, the other does it on his own, and he's and idiot.

I only do arbitrage in closely correlated currencies by shorting one and longing the other.

what do you do if one of the 27 breaks and the new one does not fit in the left over place?

Hookers and blow

When did you realize that humans are inferior traders compared to machines? Disclaimer: I work at a quant fund.

Stup up your game and take advantage of asymmetrical information. There is no low hanging fruit left out there.

>You do it on your own or at a brokerage (whatever forex trading houses are called)?
On my own.

>Where'd you learn?
Internet. Mainly through books but also in articles and forums.

>How long have you been trading?
5 years.

>Been knterested in forex for years, but only know two people in it, one at wells, the other does it on his own, and he's and idiot.
I don't know anyone in it outside forums.

Up your bum

Very early, I spend most of the day studying to improve my software.

what was your highest income in one day and the most you have lost another day?

>how you feeling about £/$ and £/euro pairs today?
I don't keep up with the news and I don't look at charts all day, so idk.

>any opportunities from brexit turbulence?
Sure.

What's your strategy in broad terms? Some mean reversion scheme?

Everything I do is logged by my software, I could look it up but I'm lazy. The best year was last year, close to 800k, the worst was the first.

so......youre not gonna give us anything useful?

are all these 27 fired from one computer and have you ever watched a porn over all screens?
answer with pic of the cabeling and hardware "behind the scenes"

>What's your strategy in broad terms? Some mean reversion scheme?
Trend following, arbitrage and market making.

Can you recommend a good site to get started in forex? I mostly do options atm.

Yes, what do you want?

Thats a picture I found on google images, I use one notebook with a 15" screen.

> making mobile apps
Pardon my stupidity but how does making mobile apps relate to the 1k to 50k increase? How does this relate to Forex trading?

Market making? Excuse my ignorance but that sounds like something only big firms can do - you are market maker on your own?

you disappoint me. telling of a mighty mathematical strategy and not able to throw out 2 simple numbers.
let your database rumble and go for it!

I call shenanigans

Idk if I could come up with a single site, I used Investopedia a lot. I think the best tip I could give is 'learn how to program'.

1k is very few to trade. I needed to raise it up with a normal job first.

Anyone can profit from market making, you just won't be THE market maker.

How do you find your cursor

dump the code to your programme

Google picture. There are software that help you find your cursor.

No.

>no

Why not?

Did you go to college to learn to program?

No. Learned when I was about 14, but I did have programming class at college.
