I use CMC markets to trade on margin

Subscribed. I am paper trading on the "Stock Trainer" app, and "TradeHero." United Cannabis stock exploded on December 29th, but as of today it went down to more modest levels.
I "bought" Sino-American shipping (we will see if this is just an over-inflated penny stock), and Exxon Mobile. I am trying to do day trading, though I have held on to United Cannabis.
I only do sometimes sports bets trading, the principle is more or less the same.
Talk about your forecasts...
My two picks of Sino global and Exxon dipped today, leading to a net loss of $40. Despite the Exxon CEO Tillerson being tapped as Secretary of State, a Massachusetts judge demanded that Exxon turn over papers related to global warming effectively stopping the rally, not to mention natural gas took a dip.
On my other stock app, United Cannabis went back up, and AngloGold (AU) went up a good deal.
For tomorrow, I picked Barclays and World Wrestling Entertainment. I would paper day-trade, but I can never get up around market opening (7:30 AM where I am).
Both JP Morgan and Bank of America are announcing their Q4 earnings tomorrow. It looks as if many are BULLISH on Banks. I have added JPM and BAC to my paper trading app. Financials to the moon.
Both Bank of America and JP Morgan went way up around 15 - 30 minutes after the opening bell. Bank of America reached a new 52 week high, which I expected to keep going up once it broke. Having not gotten any sleep, I went to bed expecting to check the stock app again when I got up only to find that Bank of America had returned near its opening. So disappointing.
World Wrestling Entertainment on the other hand, went up 1.78% which resulted in an $85 profit. Barclays ended up slightly down on the day. And the experts predicted the financial sector would do well. What nonsense. :mad:
I'll try posting this again had some commentary going but site crashed when I clicked on Post....
Easy money has likely already been made

I trade on the U.S. exchanges in futures mostly, but have experience with intraday trading of stocks as well, especially ones considered 'pump & dump' price action, where fundamentals are garbage...tend to favor short-selling in these case. Very risky type of trading, but if you know what to look for, very lucrative and odds of success are better than 'buy & hold', in my opinion. Key is finding a broker who has shares of that stock to borrow at the time you need them ;)
Some of my futures trading is in Short Term Interest Rates ("STIRs") for European and UK banks...the Euribor and Short Sterling instruments.
Latest developments involve the attempt at a fully automated trading system. Learned a lot from the blog of a British fellow, Rob Carver: qoppac[dot]blogspot[dot]co[dot]uk (no affiliation, & not attempting to 'advertise' hence I did not make it a clickable link...new here & haven't read the policies related to such).
I will be working in trading after graduation.
New trade opportunity - I havent offered one in a while - so here is a new one for you guys who like to follow markets USD/CAD. News media is so positive towards CAD$ due to the potentiality of rising crude oil prices in conjunction of a 65% chance Canadian interest rates will rise shortly I think tomorrow. Well my system is saying all that stuff is already factored in so let's see how we go looking forward 2-3 weeks. Indicators have lit up on the buy side like a christmas tree but no guarantees. Caution caution
