Learn Day Trading Strategies

I don't hear any feedback from people who made a true commitment with Investools. and how sucessfuly it worked. I only hear negative, but how about possitive or realistic. I am very interested to know from some who is a sucessful stock trader: How sucessful were you with investools, what has worked, will it be a good program for day traders, is it worth the money, what else is there that is better? Any other advice? Thanks!

There is no magic tool, you will have to find the answers yourself or you will never be a professional trader. Experience matters. You need to figure out the basics for yourself– don't fight strong trends, protect your capital, ride your winners, learn to spot trends, set stops, set specific goals for each trade, learn how to use leverage, learn to make money in every market, take breaks. You will fail. You will lose money. Some learn from this, some keep doing the same stupid things, some give up. If you want to be rich, you get up, ignore the pain, figure out where you made mistakes, and don't make them again. Moreover, after many years you may create the perfect trading strategy that on paper will make you rich every time, but executing it in real life is a different story. Psychology, emotions, it is your worst enemy. I was up 1200% in four months earlier this year, then my Dad got really sick and my dog died. I thought I could keep trading, but I was not nearly up to it, and wound up losing all of my profits from those four months in three weeks. It was actually a cheap lesson that I should have learned before. I won't make that mistake again. Don't look for tips or advise from others, because you can't be fixed, you have to be flexible and adapt to the market. No matter what happens you should be confident that you can start with a stake and turn it into real money in a couple of weeks; you need that kind of confidence and determination… that is more important than any software.

Mainly, is there a minimum amount of funds required in your account.
Like trading equities, there must be $25,000 in your account to day trade.
Does forex have any requirements, or special rules only pertaining to forex?
Any and all advice is welcome.
Thank you.

Are you sure you thought this through? Day trading & Forex? That's like throwing money out the window with one hand while playing craps with the other. The brokers will love you as long as your cash lasts. Verify what you read. Educate your self. Get diverse opinions.

I'm new to day trading, and trying to research the many different systems available. Where could I find impartial, independent research on how the different systems work, and how well they work?

Usually the software platform is part of the account itself. so if you get an account from Scottrade or E-Trade you will use their software. With new regulations forcing cleared funds to be in suspense for 72 hours, today's day trader needs about 40-50K in liquid funds if you want to bring home a few hundred dollars a day. Scottrade is the best platform I've seen if you have a powerful computer, but they all work about the same.

I want to learn about trading some commodities like oil, metals, or agricultural products like coffee or cocoa. The more the better.
I may want some websites that offer free membership or else.

I found a website that may be good for a starter like you. This website is categorised in energies, financials, grains, meats and metals. There are also many sub-menu which you may care like crude oil, rbob gasoline, Us dollar, soya bean, wheat, coffee, sugar, gold, platinum… You may discover yourself.

You should also read materials from financial magazines about macroeconomics.
