P.S.

Please post in this topic to let me know whether these tips are useful. Does anyone read them and put them to practice? Is the language simple and clear enough? Would you like some topics to be covered more often?

I'd appreciate your input!

Hi Oxa
There is a wealth of useful information in these posts. I certainly read them. One thing I find, it is difficult to search. The forum search is excellent as is the triggers search on the website. But the articles and weekly highlights are not so easy.

For example, I'm looking for "commission". Triggers search and forum search are spot on, but with the weekly highlights I know I've read it somewhere, but have to re-read each post until I find it.     

MarkV, thanks for your feedback! I am happy to learn that even such a pro like you still finds something useful in these bits of advice I post.

Regarding the search: good point! May I suggest the tool I use with all the websites where I need to find something? I stopped using their built-in search (sometimes there is no such option whatsoever) and started using Google instead. Much more reliable!

For example, with "commission" just type this in the search bar:

site:marketfeeder.co.uk/learn/articles/highlights commission

It will list all the articles where commission is mentioned.
