Thanks for the tips.
I consider myself pretty risk-averse, and I think my trading style will be. I wouldn't enter I trade I didn't understand (shorting still seems a little mysterious), and I tend to do a lot of research and follow stocks in certain sectors, so I have a feel for what's going on (although I know, sometimes the market moves and the reason???).
The Impact Trading people are day traders. Their strategy seems to be watching the market makers, and trying to codify the things they are looking for in certain market makers. Their program attempts to incorporate this strategy, but I'm sure there are a few others too.
The reason I sounded "sold" on this course is that after doing some research about what others are charging, and going to a couple of presentations, it sounded as though they are trying to establish a trading business in Manhattan, which is why they are teaching a course.
I have read a number of articles and a couple of books, and I will continue. Now the course has been put off until Aug 18th, so I have some time to become better grounded. Also playing some paper-trade simulation games on the web, although none found for day trading.
Thanks, all, for the links suggestions. I will post some I have found in the next couple of days. |
