Hey guys! I am Tobi from Germany (Frankfurt region) and I dream about becoming an Investment Banker since I was a teenager. I am in my 5th Semester at the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management now and work part-time as an IT consultant (which funds my trading capital..) but have the goal to work for an Investment Bank or Asset Manager. Is there anyone in here who might share some advice on how to increase the likelihood and if I should consider an MBA or prefer a Master in Finance as my next degree? Thanks a lot in advance!

I would be highly interested in exchanging experiences with brokers. Just checked the conversation, so far there is no thread about this. I trade with TradeNation. Who are you all trading with and are there any brokers to definitely avoid and which ones do you recommend, especially in terms of regulation and smooth payouts?

Hi. Did someone of you experience difficulties to write code that closes orders, especially if they reach a certain stop loss or take profit. I found that when the market moves super fast, an additional "hidden" stop loss or take-profit can be very important. However, I get error #3 when the EA tries to close these positions (only happens every ~150th trade or so and all 149 other trades geht closed due to hitting to/sl). Is there an error in the code (MT4)? Thank you so much!!

Hi! My name ist Tarik, I'm 34 years old, based in Frankfurt, Germany, and since January 2023 I use an expert advisor to automate my trading strategy which I have traded manually for about 1,5 years. I mainly switched to make my trading compatible with my job as a product manager for a software company. Absolutely fascinated by the opportunities automated trading provides.However, there is so much more to learn, too. Happy to meet like-minded people and exchange ideas and experiences 😊 @René Balke Huge thanks, not only for your content, but also for this super interesting initiative and community!
