I am currently an investor, but looking to start a trading portfolio - can someone advise whether the graphs provided on the OST website are sufficient for looking at Moving Averages, or if I also need to obtain graphs from another source? Thanks.

first Q is why do you want to go into trading ?? then gibe serious thought as to what sort of trader you want to be, time effort, risk, reward etc .. charts, the Q is do you want/need intra-day .. now the other users here will tell you that you have to have intra-day, I am deeply sceptical of that idea .. for dsay tarders sure, but do you want to be a day tarder ?? and a real day trader, not a trader who trades a lot ..

most important is that you set the systems/ideals .. rather then lettign the market dictate, one can trade anyway you want and it is important that you're the driver ..

Thanks Simon, I am looking to spend minimal time and effort on trading and would be more interested in EOD charts. Initially I expect to put some hard yards in researching aspects of trading; developing a system and ensuring I become more disciplined.
