i just started my new job last week, and so far it has been uneventful. but i have a good feeling about this job…

anyways, i have been learning how to trade FOREX (FOReign EXchange) for the past few weeks, and it does seem like a practical source of side income. however, it involves a certain amount of up-front investment just like any business. the thing is, Forex doesn’t need much initial seed. i can start with just USD1 depending on the broker. i’ve signed up for a demo account using Marketiva, and so far i made quite a healthy profit. the initial virtual money given was $10,000 and now i’m up to $11,000++.

but of course, i don’t have much hesitation when dealing with fantasy money and i don’t think twice when putting a few Ks on the line. if it were REAL money, i’d even deliberate to wager $5!

i plan to use the demo account for a few months, learn the tools of the trade, the market trends, signal indicators and economic news that affect Forex and start with a small capital. maybe after my lil’ kiddo girl greets me face-to-face in the delivery room
