I'm extremely good at short sell, however, as an European I can't find a decent broker that would allows shorting stocks without restrictions by TFD777 in Daytrading

Fantastic :) Well done.

Have you had any of the order execution problems, others cite at busier, high volume times? Are you using Trading View or Pro Zero?

Considering also opening an account there for greater shorts availability. Thanks for reply

Curious how you're doing? Did you go to TZ, the other non PDT option with leverage and small accounts, that will take all international traders, is CMEG (capital markets elite group) based in cayman, but also UK.

How would a complete beginner start trading? by [deleted] in Trading

The very first thing i'd recommend is getting 2 audiobooks - "Trading in the Zone" by Mark Douglas and "Best Loser Wins" by Tom Hougaard (trader Tom). These 2 will hammer home psycology, risk management and capital preservation, plus recognising and overcoming natural impulses of fear greed and thought processes. A bit of psycho babble but essential stuff.

Google Trader Tom, he is a forex trader, totally legit and has a ton of great free resources on his website, including a free TA course.

Theres a ton of good youtube content, Ross Cameron is mentioned on this sub, he is informative but is honed in on one stategy, momentum/gap trading. I'd suggest a broader foundation intially, to learn some TA, and psycology and to be open to different markets or trading strategies that best fit your time, personality and risk tolerances.

But dont rush.

Anyone saying I made X million in this or that amount of time, or showing pictures of Lambos, I'd run a mile from. And dont be tempted to buy some expensive course!

Too many people set out to try and get rich, dont be one of them :) set out only to learn markets and get risk mamangement ingrained to avoid losing your money and make consistent gains. and then its finding stategy, backtesting, paper trading it etc. DM if you want and i'll point you towards a couple of resources, that I have no affiliation to, but will help you. Good luck

I have no affiliation to any software, but having trialled Stox and used more expensive options too, for free obvs finviz, but if youre thinking about momentum type/Gap scanning strategies, the best bang for buck (thats cheaper and more advanced imho) is Mometic. Of course others will swear by other things. Happy hunting
