 For 
the new comer... My motto is: try to define what you want to do, set some 
objectives, and than start learning what you "need to know". The rest will 
follow "as needed". To work through a 600 page manual without coming accross any 
real trading system is no way to learn: boring! 
  
Instead of trying to follow how complicated systems work, pick some kind 
of a system that appeals to you, a system that has characteristics that go with 
your personality and time allotment. There are plenty of systems in books, none 
of them will make you rich but each of them is a great learning experience. Go 
to the library and get a copy of "Encyclopedia of indicators.." I think that is 
what it is called. You'll find over one hundred easy trading systems you can 
program with half a dozen or so lines of code. Ask help on the list if you need 
any.  
  
Oh, 
and btw, NEVER worry about looking dumb or stupid. People who do not worry about 
what others think about them will learn and progress twice as fast as those who 
do. Finally, remember that complex doesn't always mean 
better... 
  
just 
my two cents worth :-) 
best 
regards, 
herman. 
  with ab you never stop 
  learning as it continues to expand and improve, even after 3 years 
  :)
