Day Trade Stocks or Forex?


 Powered by Max Banner Ads 

I am a finance student and have experience trading stocks and forex casually for fun, but would like to pick one to spend more time trading… Has anyone had success with either one? I know the obviouse pro’s and cons of both, but I am probably overlooking some major ones… Does anyone know which one would be better for sitting in and trading a few days a week?

    I have been using the FreedomRocks forex trading system for the past 3 months and have averaged a 20-30% ROI. The best part is, it only takes me, and any FR user, about 25 minutes per week to manage the portfolio. The FreedomRocks program does 95% of the work for me. I think with this program you could do both, if you prefer, because it takes so little time to manage. The FreedomRocks system utilizes a hedge strategy, therefore even when the market is down, we won’t get margined out. The FreedomRocks program only trades four major currency pairs thus eliminating a lot of the confusion and guesswork. My average is 20-30%/month, however,my fellow FreedomRocks clients, and I, have woken up to 30-60% overnight. The best part is you can try the system out free and it only takes about 20 minutes to initially setup your live trades, after that it’s set it and forget it!

    Great question and good luck on your studies. I personally lean towards the Forex choice for a couple of reasons.

    Forex offers superior leverage at 100/200 or even 400 to 1.

    I am also of the opinion that International Currency Exchange is less subject to manipulation (Enron, options abuse, closed door "strategies")

    I travel internationally quite a bit and Forex immerses me into the world of international finance and politics which I am finding amazing.

    I am also a simple kind of guy and Forex allows me to concentrate on 4 to 6 currency pairs instead of 8000 companies.

    And lastly I have been able to make considerably more money in Forex than in my many years investing in stocks.

    I was also looking for something that would not require my constant attention and allow me to spend the majority of my time enjoying life rather than sitting at a computer screen.

    I look forward to continuing this discussion with you.

    Best luck for a prosperous 2007.

    Paul
