    Thank you for that explanation Markus, would you also recommend Interactive Brokers TWS paper trading simulator?

  • @egosystem9959
    @egosystem9959 5 років тому +3

    Yes, but in the flight simulator, there aren't paper airplanes...you should reset... Flying a messed up crashed plane doesn't help you learn...
    But seriously:
    1.) Paper trade without training, so you can see how most people who attempt trading fail.
    2.) Get some Training and trading tools that you understand.
    3.) Then Reset and try it again !
    It's always 3 steps Markus !
    P.S.- I tried unsuccessfully to negotiate with Rachel...

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  5 років тому +1

      Love the 3 steps!
      That's a great way to see how training can help you. I recently saw a video for fitness that had a similar idea: Do a certain exercise WITHOUT training, and then do it again after 2 training sessions. It was night and day. Same with trading.
      And I would like to know more about the "unsuccessful negotiation" with Rachel. Can you shoot me an email to markus.heitkoetter@rockwelltrading.com and let me know what happened?

    I now believe it's important to test you strategy before trade with real money . I agree 100℅ with you , because when I first started trading I was doing ok . Then when I change my strategy I lost a lot money .

      Awesome! 😀 I used to be a big soccer fan, but watching the games on TV is not the same as being in the stadium!

    Hey Marcus, thanks for the video. Is think or swim by Ameritrade a good broker for trading stocks with a live account ? I use the trading view scanner to search for US stocks but then find I cannot trade 50% of them as my broker doesn’t offer them. Also, Is the think or swim scanner better than trading view?

      Hi David, what do you mean by "my broker doesn’t offer them"? Who is your broker right now?

      @davidhaylett1810 3 роки тому

      @@rockwelltradingservices Hi Marcus, My current broker is CMC Markets. They offer around 3,700 US stocks to trade, so far from all of them. Maybe I would be better off with Trade station which can be traded from Trading view.
      Regards,
      David H

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  3 роки тому +1

      CMC probably only offers "CFDs" on US stocks. And yes, I would definitely open an account with a "real" stock and options broker. Here's a comparison of the most popular brokers: ua-cam.com/video/4MoU-UiDAi4/v-deo.html

    Think or swim doesn't allow this if you are not signed up to trade with them now. It seems they have discontinued that service.

    It's been a couple years... Is Think or Swim still your top recommended simulator?

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  2 роки тому

      Yes. It is still one of my top recommendation. We also have updated the PowerX Optimizer and now it can also be integrated with Tradier.

    Do you use any mobile stock trading simulator?

    • @rockwelltradingservices
      @rockwelltradingservices  5 років тому

      I suggest practicing with the ThinkOrSwim (TOS) simulator. You can register here: www.thinkorswim.com/t/index.html#!/pmregister
      Although I prefer placing trades on their desktop platform, they do have a mobile app.

    What is the minimum amount one needs to open an account with TD Ameritrade?

      These days, ZERO dollars. You can open an account and don't need to fund it until you're ready.

    thanks. good info. I use ToS papermoney. I'm trying to do Buy Limit MOC orders to close a Short position, but it never executes... Any reasons why? My MOCs always go through with live trading
    It's frustrating I can't see my true P/L for my strategies... thks!

      That's a great question for TOS support. TOS support is excellent and they should be able to figure that one out for you.

    Hey Markus, If I can make 90% returns using credit spreads on a thinkorswim paper trading account, can I expect to make 60-70% with real money?

      Hi Rony, I'm averaging 80% - 90% per year. But PLEASE don't base your decision on MY results. I'm really, really good at this and my results are not typical. Making sense? 👍
