Been watching from your video about ‘Leverage’ and now I’m on the third video! :)) Your explanation and examples are so clear that it literally brought light to my understanding of this topic :)) thank you!
I know its 2121 but i been trading 1year and i should have found these vids at the beginning, I havent lost any money but my learning has been slow and i think iv e been lucky. These vids are great.
Even if you have unique accent I can understand it clearly. Ive seen many trading videos on YT but you're the only one who can explain it clearly. Thank u so much sir.
I have learnt more about etoro and trading in general from these videos in 2 days, than my first 6 months since I opened my etoro account :). Thank you!
Hi Mate, If you could number/sequence your videos it will be really great ! They are excellently presented and great help for a newbie like me. Thank you !
Towards the end of the film, when you adjusted the stop loss, it generated a 100usd debit. Could you explain a little about this. Is it in some way used to ‘underwrite’ the trade and does it come back to you?
Hi there Robin - yeah, it's saying "yes you can lower your stop loss, but we will need to make sure the money is available to cover that stop loss should it be reached in the trade.' So, you can only lower your stop loss more if you have sufficient funds to cover it in your available balance. It will then earmark that amount to cover your stop loss - your available balance will drop by the amount you lowered your stop loss by. It sort of becomes part of the trade. When you close the trade, yes, it's returned too (providing it hasn't been lost by the new lower stop loss being triggered)
Hi. I have a questions. What if I open a 100$ position with x5 leverage to it and have lets say 400$ of available-to-trade funds still in my account. In case market will go to different direction and I start loosing money can I also loose those 400$ available-to-trade funds or the only maximum I can loose is my initial investment of 100$? Thank you for clarifying in advance.
Your content is the best out there. You come across genuine. I want to ask you about buying stocks. I understand if I buy with leverage I may lose my investment if the market goes down for that stock. But my question is if I buy without leverage and the price goes down on free fall would I lose my shares , I would lose money of course. but if I hold it expecting the price to recover long term would the platform close my dealing out ? I hope I am making sense. I am new to this. Thanks in advance
2 questions if you wouldn't mind. 1 , would you set your stop loss say 30 mins before etoro disconnect from the market. 2 was you saying that when the market opens in the state, someone in the UK can not trade on etoro. Great Videos
Hi mate. Thanks for your videos. They are very helpfull and i am just searching. If i want to join how can i do long trading with out using leverage. And how can i be in touch with you. I have same mind set i dont want get rich quick just want it slowly but strong
The irony is that when you're using leverage, the stop-loss mechanism is hurting you far more than anything else. If there is a slide drop in the price, instead of allowing you to 'ride the storm out' and give the stock the chance to rise up again, the ST is triggered a lot easier (because you reach the limit faster) and your shares are sold out at the worst possible moment, when realistically you would never choose to sell. It's the opposite of protection!
Great video! I al a swingtrader but i want to understand options. Can you trade options with etoro? ..or what is the best broker for options? and could you make a video about safe option trading :)
Thanks - nope, but there are loads of them on youtube. I did do one which is a really brief intro to some basic technical analysis concepts but there's so many better ones out there. Here's my super-simple one: th-cam.com/video/rTEtcI1xcv8/w-d-xo.html
I'm a complete noob and your videos have really helped me out so thanks for that. I'm looking at copying someone first I think, maybe aimstrader. Regarding your available balance, that cant ever go into minus then from my understanding? That was a concern of mine while trying to see how it all works. I'm also tempted to put down on bitcoin as a one off, will it go up! nobody knows i guess.
Bitcoin's looking scary right now... Who knows though! As far as i can see, Etoro's help section talks about there being a 'negative balance protection' on accounts, which i think means that if they go into the red overall, Etoro will accept the loss. But I'm not sure if that's changed now, so best to ask them directly - not worth the risk! Let me know what they say :)
Hey there - i had to look this up to see what PDT means - as far as i know, nope, but they did message me in the beginning when i asked for scalping trade suggestions around a European press conference. I'd say check with Etoro. The U.S.A runs some unfair sounding systems really...
best to check a technical analysis pro for that info - I used them a little years ago but since then I've only been copy trading, so I'd need to learn it all again myself...
Best to check on investopedia.com really - they have so much great information on everything provided by real pros that It's where I go for this sort of information, so I'd suggest it for you too. I'm still learning. I mean, I know how to see the profit on a given trade from within the portfolio view, and I know that the units you're buying are displayed in the new trade dialogue box when you open a new trade. I also know that the units change in real time according to how much leverage you specify or how much money you want to use in the trade. But I think you may be asking for more in depth mathematical info, so I'd suggest checking with investopedia.com or babypips.com to really get more familiar with the maths.
Can you lose more than you have invested using leverage. For example if you have invested $1000 in Tesla with x5 leverage can you lose more than your $1000 and Etoro automatically to close other positions of yours?
I'd say it's probably a lot wiser... Up to you though :) I'd say it's definitely always going to be better for a person who's investing for the first time if they learn about the markets and how trading works first. Most new people lose money when they start trading. The overwhelming majority in fact... So, it's definitely a risky proposition. It may look lovely and simple and accessible, but it's still statistically a very risky endeavour.
The other question I have, say I deposit $500 to copy someone, only $500 in my available balance and I copy someone to leave $0 in my available balance. Is there any reason why i can't do that, that ok?
As far as I can see, that would work.So you're saying you put $500 into your account, so there's $500 in your available balance, and then you use that $500 in your available balance to copy someone? I don't see why that wouldn't be O.K...
Nope - many people, especially if they're 'value investors' or looking for dividends and long term trades will stay away from leverage completely to avoid fees.
Because it can peak and then go lower. You'll ideally want to put the limit on the earn where the peak gain is so you sell at the absolute highest price. Of course where it is is just "guesswork".
Maybe you should check again who "that guy" Mario Draghi Is 😃. The ex Head of the European Central Bank. Not knocking you as your videos are very good but it was an amusing moment.
Hey! If Jeff Bezos is an alien, why would the stock go down? Aren't aliens supposed to be smarter than humans? I think if he's an alien, the stock should go up.

house always wins, dont overuse leverage, or dont go all in

@@2dgamemania It's hard to tell where it will go. Ultimately, I'd guess up, but it may go down a lot first.
thanks so much Tom for these great videos!! Super informative and entertaining! :)
Hey Thomas, is eToro suitable for Day Traiding? Are there any limitations on the number of transactions you can make in a given day?
Great video again.. bro I have a question about on etoro if there is a pdt rule or patern day trading or short selling?? thanks God bless

Hey Thomas . Take a look at Galexopoulos
Will do - he's on the list now :)
Can you lose more than you have invested using leverage. For example if you have invested $1000 in Tesla with x5 leverage can you lose more than your $1000 and Etoro automatically to close other positions of yours?
made a video about that... th-cam.com/video/A1iTColkAck/w-d-xo.html
is it better to start off with lower amounts of money
I'd say it's probably a lot wiser... Up to you though :) I'd say it's definitely always going to be better for a person who's investing for the first time if they learn about the markets and how trading works first. Most new people lose money when they start trading. The overwhelming majority in fact... So, it's definitely a risky proposition. It may look lovely and simple and accessible, but it's still statistically a very risky endeavour.
So if you buy 500£ of Amazon with a 5x leverage and it goes down badly. What's the max amount of money that you can loose? 500£ or 2500£?
I thinl 500 dont sure I want to know too
Thanks for your comment's, for more investment options?
+... 1... (8... 7... 2)... 2... 5... 3... 5... 9... 6... 0...

What trading books do you read for strategies and technical analysis?? I suggest make a review about trading books👍
I've only ever looked at investopedia and babypips really. There are soooooooooo many tutorials out there :)

Hello Tom, great explanations - thank you.
Has anyone told you..you look like SIMON COWELL ..
:) Yes, unfortunately, I have heard that before ...
@@SocialTrading but you are more handsome
@@SocialTrading, Unfortunately?
What's wrong with Simon?
Goodman thanks Mate
must you use levarage?
Nope - many people, especially if they're 'value investors' or looking for dividends and long term trades will stay away from leverage completely to avoid fees.
It also depends on how much money you have though due to the minimum trade sizes on some instruments.
Why would I put a limit on how much I can earn on the spread ? I can agree that I stop losses automatically and pull out.
Because it can peak and then go lower. You'll ideally want to put the limit on the earn where the peak gain is so you sell at the absolute highest price. Of course where it is is just "guesswork".
do tutorial forex leverage on every pair. do leverage relation to pips. x10 leverage = 1 pips: 1 usd. x100 leverage = 1 pips:10 usd
