Hey guys.

I have Ubuntu on a PC at work.

Any recommendations for a free platform to practice the jigsaw drills on?

Needs to be as light as possible and not run off a Windows emulator.

Thanks in advance.

PS I did have a search previous to asking but couldn't find what I was looking for.

Jigsaw requires that you sit and stare at numbers all day. Why dont you stick to charts? It would be much easier to trade (on the sly ) at work because you just set alerts at levels and do a quick analysis when the event is triggered.

Hey Grantx.

I should be able to free up an hour or so at work to practice the drills.

I'm just running through what was recommended. I think if I continue to do this part time I'm not going to get anywhere. Need to get into a position where I feel comfortable in hitting it hard full time, make a proper go of it. Then if it doesn't work at least tried

I went through that whole cycle with order flow. I ended back where I started - charts and price action.
Be careful of the sales pitch that the 'pros and top fund managers only trade off the ladder with occasional glances at a chart'. It makes you feel like you should throw everything out and focus on that one thing if you ever want to be profitable.
Dont believe it.
I presume after 2 years in forex you have a good understanding of PA, so my 0.02 is to explore everything but keep in mind it should be complementing your core knowledge not replacing it.
