We have lots of experienced traders on MoneyAM who would be glad to help if you have any trading questions.

-- DealerDave,

I've used both, more so the Advfn one - I much prefer the Advfn one, though it may just be a matter of personal taste. I find the trades much easier to read on Advfn L2 (and more of them) and the screen generally more attractive and easier to read at a glance. The MoneyAM one looks like an old DOS program - sorry chaps, but it does - and I don't find it easy to see what's going on at a glance - there's no clear delineation between different bits of information.

The new AM terminal about to go live will allow as many L2 screens as you wish. (Click on second image)
They have a simplified L2 allowing 8+ on a single monitor + news, stocklists, web pages with auto refresh and lots more!

For those with multiple monitors.!! Click image for full view

Morning all,

Amazing croc (am I too easily impressed)!?

LITTLE WOMAN

I use the moneyAM intraday charts (Free level at moment) and notice that whenever a price moves, the spread betting prices always move first - do you know if on Level2 it is possible to see price movements at the same time as the SB companies? - or is that utopia!

Comments from yourself or from any other Level2 users would be very much appreciated.

PS Like the kicking cartoon - know the feeling!

You see the price movements as they happen - sometimes too fast to react to! I find my limit orders on my normal trading accounts can react to these price movements (and I have managed to get some really good prices in the process)
but found my limit orders on my CFD account did not (in fact they offen did not react at all - which is why I've decided not to bother with SB companies.

thanks for replies re AT trades. still trying to get my head round it

Croc can you recommend any publications on charting...?
Many thanks in advance

Carvaggio:
Look at "beyond Candleticks" by Steve Nison who is also an author of
"japanese candlestick charting techniques"

I found his language and explanations very detailed and informative.

David Jones (Limpsfield Chartist) is the TA guy, I will ask him to suggest a few good TA books.

Could one of you please tell me a share that will go up at least 20% this week cos I lost a packet yesterday on S. Africa

Cheers

LITTLE WOMAN - many thanks for your reply

2002/3 Losses v 2003/4 Capital Gains. Do you know if I can offset last years 5 fig. losses against my gains for this year, once my CGT allowance has been used. thx.

Croc... you mentioned multiple monitors... any info on cost, software and supplier? As I am in my 1st year of full time trading is there an ideal no. of monitors I should consider. thx

Previous years losses are offset against current year profit before CGT allowances (Allowances are always the last deduction to be made when working out CGT liability).

Losses are also set off after indexation but before taper relief, so it is alway best to offset against assets with the lowest taper relief. But you can offset enough losses so that you can after taper relief claim the CGT allowance and c/fwd balance to following year. (Although there are other factors that may have to be taken into account)

Now you understand why accountants charge so much to work out CGT and guess what their fee is not tax deductable!

When is this new MoneyAM terminal going live do we have a date?

D,

Croc / little woman thanks for your quick reply. Its very useful having this source of help when u are sitting trading alone at home and not sure where to get the info. thanks.

Ahhhh!

Help! Anyone out there a previous Nothing Ventured user? They've sold out to Fastrade and we've all been moved over to that site.

What a mess - this Fastrade site is crap. I'm so pissed off I can hardly type this message. NV was such a brilliant trading tool and now we've got this. What the hell are they playing at. Couldn't those numbskulls at Charles Stanley see that the NV site was much superior to there own and use that instead and just stick their Fastrade badge onto it.

Any ex-NV users please let me know what your thoughts are today.

I have started a new thread to discuss the NV/Fastrade issue.

Please post your comments there as I intend to email them all to Fastrade to let them know how dissatisfied we are. This is the link:

or search under the epic code of NV.

The title of the thread is Nothing Ventured vs Fastrade.

Many thanks.

Guy

I have just sold a share and noticed on the moneyam live prices that whilst the details are spot on the sell is recorded as a buy,in view of this can we rely on live prices anymore as regards acuracy.

Thank You.
