Can a person with little to no experience get into this market?

But how? Can a person with little to no experience get into this market?

Yes. AvaTrade provides a wealth of trading solutions for traders of all levels. To begin with, you would be starting with a demo account into which you don’t deposit any funds whatsoever – merely trade as you would with a real account, only using virtual funds – paper money (which is why it’s sometimes referred to as “paper trading”). There, you would learn to manage your risk, your equity and place stop loss and take profit orders. Once you learn the basics, you could start experimenting with hedging techniques – how to “insure” your positions, scalping – the very high-pressure technique of building profits in very small and quick increments, and more. All in all, if you’re a beginner and want to test the waters, then online trading is the answer. Our WebTrader platform is simplicity itself; on the go, you can use our mobile AvaTradeGo app, and – once you’ve gotten the hang of things – you might want to tackle vanilla options with AvaOptions.
