Hello,
I want to introduce myself to the community. I am recently released from prison a place where I was for fourteen years. During my stay there I learned about trading. I fell in love with trading and the markets, I am more geared toward technical analysis. I read over a hundred books on trading and have taken some courses. I studied, charted and back tested by hand many different things. I allowed myself personal study time of 4-6 hours a day seven days a week. I charted everything by hand for about a decade of my prison stay. I have a nice paper trading record. However we all know that paper trading is not the same as real trading.
I got my cherry popped in the real trading arena this past week. I was not prepared for the fast paced momentum of the price quotes on the lower time frames, but it was nice. I am with Global futures / Gain capital and plan on making this work for my profession. I won't take failure as an option. I would like to know if anyone can help point me in the right direction on a couple of things as I am new to everything. I was in a cage for 14 years, you can only imagine how blown away I am with all the new technology.
First of all I would like to know if anyone knows of any way I can keep trade logs with digital charts and voice recorder. What can I get for this and where can I get it. I have no problem cutting and pasting. I just don't want to keep a written trading journal anymore, I am looking to upgrade.
Second I would like to know of a good alert system on my Android phone to let me know if certain prices are hit.
I know these are simple things but just want to know if someone can help point me in the right direction. I am open to any other advice offered in the real of trading. You can reach me via email at

I look forward to being a part of this trading community.
Thank you.
