Hi,

Just looking for some pointers on the FX game.

I've been using bullbearings.co.uk for a short while in order to see what trading is all about. Soo far I have found FX trading to be most 'lucrative' for me....and slightly more interesting.

I was wondering if I could take this up as a bit of a 'hobby with benefits' ?

I'm just looking for pointers about how to get started, where's good for am's and if there are any pitfalls to look out for?

Would you recommend any books to read or any websites that are 'must-see' for info and research?

I've looked through the last ten pages of this sub-section and didn't find anything on FX specifically...it seems different to currency spread betting?

All help appreciated!

Cheers!

Coanda

With your name, you ought to get a demo account on... oanda.com

www.babypips.com is a good start.

Test out numerous strategies with one of the major pairs. Don't expect to be consistently profitable inside of a year.
