You reckon you can trade faster, better and with less emotion than a computer program?

You think if they could make millions doing this, they'd be selling courses at £400 a time?

Purely looking to see if anyone has had a look at this or can point me in the direction of another worthwhile intro to trading.

I'm not too clued up on this so tell me i'm wrong but Isnt trading really a waste of time unless you are dong so with a lot of capital? the transaction fee's make the rake alone too much for small transactions... i.e £15 a trade so you'd be looking to doing trades of a few £3k+ and need a bankroll of £100k bare minimum..... That's before even gaining knowledge to beat an ever increasingly efficient market

Lex Van Dam sounds as if he bought his name off the internet.

While I am of the view that most traders are coin flippers.  I think it is better to see their view

I would stick to one area of trading, forex is a good one to get into. Lots  of free training sites.

So one day you are advising to stick to forex, next day you are messing around with free money on a stock trading site?

Not saying that the course is or isn't worth it, but it's available on Groupon at the moment for only £19.99.

http://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/london/lex-van-dam-trading-academy/3683009

Far more reasonable than then £399, but the fact that is is reduced so much makes me dubious over the course.

I trade forex normally and with levels beyond micro deals. I am learning commodities/stock with free £ at such low levels its great to learn on.

That OK with you?

I actually didn't advice trading in forex specifically i said stick to one area at first..an example being forex.

I had a play with iii's free demo site thing trading shares and currency.  At one point I was 10k down which was a bit worrying, but a day later and i was about 25k up.

It's not for me, don't think I could handle the swings.
