I am thinking of dabbling in shares and very new to this. I have been looking at things since last year and have been quite hesitant to let someone else gamble with my money. I think I prefer doing it myself, but which company should I go with?
I have read a lot of negative reviews on HB.
I want something that wont cost me too much money overall and give me access to almost every company out there particularly FTSE other international ones if possible.
I have read about HB crashing during busy times?? Please advise who to go with and why., more

Therefore, I donâ??t understand how 10 year T-Notes can be used to judge long term interest rates, because surely long term interest rates will be dependent on what the Fed decides to have as the Fed Funds rate at the time?

Safe/no risk forex platforms?  All the forex trading I have seen online involves high risk, whereby your investment can go up or down. So you can potentially lose more than you put in.
Is there any online platforms where I can just simply buy one currency at one price and hold on to it until I want to trade it for another later? (similar to using a high st exchange office). I don’t get the high risk nonsense where it could go either way, I’d prefe to just buy a currency, hold on to it regardless of the market and then trade/sell it when the time is right.
Is my only option to do this on the high st or is there anywhere online that offers an online account that takes a commission?
