To those that use resources but are looking for other resources, here is a list of resources I use. Feel free to place a comment on your useful resources. For those that are new to the markets some websites might be too complex to follow, but all I suggest is to follow and read them routinely. The information will soon make sense.
What I read and use to follow the markets:
FTAlphaville is an part of the FT, and it gives very useful insights to the market. They also have the 6am cut that is a newsletter that is sent out free and summarizes all the useful information you need for the day.
Well I guess you all know Bloomberg. Bloomberg TV used on all trading floors around the globe, very useful to give you a deep insight of the markets. Bloomberg is more for general analysis. When you are new to trading, sometimes it is a bit too complex, but just keep reading.
Zero Hedge– is very analytical and gives a lot of useful insights to behind the scenes
Reuters: Here is another useful website. what is useful about Reuters is that is is more for traders. In the morning Reuters offers a great daily market information.
