TRADER's Plan
- Future currency pairs I want to look into

- Type of Trader I am prone to be
- Long Term Trader, Short Term Trader, Breakout Trader
- Future amount (in lots) I will Risk per Trader

- Notes
- Started off spread betting but didnt like the spreads, neither do i have confidence in the brokers. Its regarded by the courts in uk as gambling so therefore very little comfort supplied when something goes wrong. Ive been in FOREX on a 2 previous occasions and was wiped out, both times i was greedy and under funded. Iwas Hedging a few shorts recently which gave me a few sleepless nights over the months. Though all good now.
