Ok , should be a course to know your understanding for the market / licence exam , don't think going to test if not going to work for forex . Since no other use except that  , still thanks you , intro me more about these so that I can know more .

I do interview stock broker before but dint go after interview , they need you to do some qualification exam before qualified to be broker , I am not interested to be sales thus no go , just to go and see what job right for me .

If forex were legal would be good , but Malaysia control over financial thing were not strong can create alot money laundering , should I go Singapore work haha

For newbies or those who need simple calculation of Acceptance Rate (AR):

AR = Total trips accepted/Total pings received

E.g.
2 completed trips
1 cancelled trip by driver (dax)
1 cancelled trip by passenger (pax)

So your Total trips accepted are 2 + 1 + 1 = 4

And if you have 1 ignored trip, it'll be:
4/5 = 0.8
      = 80%

In other words, every 4 trips accepted entitle you 1 bullet to ignore job.

Say 16 trips accepted for a day, then:
16/4 = 4 bullets
because 16/20 = 0.8
                            = 80%
*
4 bullets are not enough for evening session or friday noon ( 12pm to 2pm ) at all......cos u will get a high fare after the 1st or 2nd normal fare one.

Sorry guys, off topic a bit. I wrote this for ahboy.
Ok let me share some insight with you so that you may think twice about your dream again.

If you really want to trade for a living, bank is not the place for you to learn especially in Malaysia. Most banks make money in forex by balancing the book but not directional trading. If you want to learn to trade, you need to go for proprietary trading house or hedge fund. However, they will not hire you if you do not have outstanding academic result from a top tier colleges. What you study in college is not important because you need to relearn everything again if they hire you. Your academic result is just a proof that you have capabilities to learn and master things fast. Nevertheless most of these top tier students will eventually failed within a year because it is really hard to survive in this industry.

So if you are not highly educated (minimum degree holder with first class honor), then most likely no one will hire you unless you got a strong cable. Forget about attending any short term classes which claims can teach you the secret or technique to make money in market because none of them works in long run. Forex is a zero sum game so those who consistently make money in long run will never revealed their technique to you.

This means your only choice is self-learned and i believe you have tried to learn by yourself but still no success. Let me just ask you one question, how many many hours do you spend per day in just staring at the chart and think what it tells you? Do you have accumulated 10000 hours screen time so far? Do you ever count what is the probability of success and potential payout ratio when certain price behavior occurs? How many books about trading you ever read? Did you ever question whether the author is correct or simply just copy and modified from the same shit? If so how can you tell that they are wrong?

Beside from charting skill, do you have any other related knowledge about trading? For instance, chaos theory, behavioral finance, game theory, statistical and probability analysis, gambler's fallacy, programming skill, etc.

Let me tell you one thing, kid. Trading is the hardest professional in the world, only those who really pro can triumph in this line of business and there is no room for mediocre and lousy traders. The journey to the top is exhausted, dangerous and long. Be prepare to sacrifice a lot of things in your life if you want to walk through this path. If I was given a choice again i am not sure i will choose this path again because I lost too many precious things in my life in pursuit of the dream.

And yes, I am a quant trader. It took >10 years and >10000 hours screen time for who am i today.

CRAP CAR should educate the riders :

NO FOOD as well as snack and DRINKS are allowed in the car.....even fruits, esp like durian! ( NO EATING and Drinking )

also no meats in the car ( for eg, pork or beef etc )

of course, NO SMOKING too!

Always have auto update or regularly update your grab app...reason is the cheating app mod works on the older versions, everytime grab updates app they also have to update....so make you less likely to kena cheating mod app if you have the latest  version of the app.

i do update my mobile and all apps daily!

Fare low plus the amount of traffic on that hour, some more u will face those rider rushing for work and keep ask "where are u, i'm rushing".

A lot driver see situation like this also frustrating, some more with the b2b issue, it makes thing even worse. I think a lot driver skip morning session to avoid all this rating killer and traffic jam.

Yesterday accepted one job from KTM Subang to SuriaMas, show in apps distance 4km, but actual distance is 5km, fare quoted at 9.30pm at RM5.

the fare should be = (4 x 1.1) + base fare 1 = RM5.4 (Round up to RM6)

I don't know how the hell Grab quote RM5, minus off 20% net become RM4, it took me 2km to pick up and 5km to complete the job. Total 7km

Per km fuel cost RM0.20, total fuel cost = RM1.40
Maintenance per km RM0.10, total maintenance = RM0.70

Net earning for that job = RM1.90  rclxub.gif

Took me about 10mins+ to complete that job and do u think is it worth it? I haven't add in the other cost like car depreciating value etc.
*
tell me about it.........PWTC to KLCC or Pavi is only RM 5 and RM 6 ( most times, means even 9am or 6pm ) which take easily 30 mins for such journey. i wonder who wanna do take up such trip?

if CRAPCAR doesnt increase all the fares by 20% ( or even more )....trust me, CRAP CAR will be in deep shit soon ( financially ). Hope someone from CRAPCAR would read this!
