#TraderNoobAlert - Anyone know where i can start looking in learning how to trade?

Go to exclusive books, buy a book by Ross Larter - This one: http://www.penguinrandomhouse.co.za/book/how-make-money-stock-exchange/9781776090853 it's R250 and the best damn easy to understand book I have ever read on trading, hardcore trading doji, bullish engulfment etc proper trading.

I like GT247 they are cheap, best platform in SA probably IG Markets.

/inb4 Platinum Wealth + justonelap

Not as elaborate as the book, but certainly worth a read: https://platinumwealth.co.za/insights/trading/introduction-day-trading/

Then on Justonelap there is a series called Trading bootcamp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSiukBhj-DQ&list=PLQyEc3l7he08t17t_3woi_I41Grpgw1b1 it's a good start as well.

Then IG markets, easyequities gt247 are on Platinum Wealth so always nice knowing if you want support you bypass the support email process if you don't like that route.

disclaimer: I am part of PW - there's no commercial interest so not really pushing a product just in case that wasn’t clear.

Was Very much considering it, but Thor advised against it...and its been flat for so long...but still considering. EE cant buy online ATM so doesnt really matter anyway

No no, I said I won't, My risk appetite and yours might be different. :p

What's the cost of using IG...? I can't seem to find a clear cut indication (probably looking in the wrong place)

That is the thing with them it's a per X basis really complex breakdown. Best would be to actually ask them on PW I was thinking of doing it for quite some time, since on their website its all under fees, but for the average joe to understand is impossible.

And I wanted to buy!
Should follow your heart.

Realistically under 60 cents is potential. Will fall back to this level tomorrow, won't surprise me, but won't be able to tell.

Will it reach R1 - R2, I genuinely believe it will. Based on what? Nothing apart from gut feelings.

So, does AXL have feelings for you back? As a self confessed Buffet fanboy, you should know better than to have feelings for/about a share. :confused:

Your fault, but in the same light I don't think this should be allowed. Given the target market of easyequities the layman. I sort of feel it's their responsibility to have a built in warning that pops up example.

Hello New Investor, just before you proceed with the sale did you notice the large spread? For more info click here.
My sentiments exactly. Not just that but there should be a warning if the live prices have changed significantly as well.
