Questions and Answers:
1. What is the Tokyo Traders Club?
Tokyo Traders Club is an independent group of traders and investors sharing information in order to learn new trading
techniques and take advantage of opportunities in markets around the world. There are a vast number of markets to trade, and sharing information
allows us to catch opportunities that we might miss otherwise.

the important thing is to get started.

10. Is trading easy to learn?
Trading isn't for everyone, but anyone with a little common sense and discipline can learn to trade and enjoy this exciting business.
It is important to find someone to learn from. It'll save you a lot of money and greatly shorten the learning process.
11. I've heard that trading is risky. Can't I lose my house, shirt, and dog?
Of course trading is risky. You can and probably will lose all of your money if you don't know what you are doing.
Anything you do comes with some sort of risk, as without it there is no reward. However, you can limit your risk, and TTC teaches people how
to control it. If you don't use discipline your trading career will be very short lived.
12. I hear the word "papertrading" everywhere I go, what does it mean?
Papertrading is simulated trading with no real money. For beginners it's a must in order to learn how to trade and develop
one's own trading style. Experienced traders also do it in order to practice or test out new theories. Either way, if you aren't papertrading you will pay for it in trading losses!
13. Who will I be learning from?
Profitable traders, period.
