good start is Become your own stockbroker by Jacques Magliolo.Another is Trading in the zone by Mark Douglas.Both available at exclusive books.

If you are going into warrants a good book is "Down and out in Paris and London".It is George Orwell's account of living in poverty.

My comment was tongue-in-cheek. Just start small and always have a stop-loss. (How many times has that been said on this forum?).View losses as school fees.Learn from them.

Whenever I used stops, I was wrong - 100% of the time. In all cases, the market took a quick dip, stopped me out, and went back to a "safe" level, or even skyrocketed soon after the dip. I do not put stops in anymore - since March.

Try keep your stop on paper, and use alerts to inform you to act.

[Robbie]

Yes, I do that.
