Hi - I am in the business of sourcing and manufacturing goods in China and importing them into the U.S. for my clients. It is possible for you to do it yourself but many things can go wrong so BE CAREFUL! Go to alibaba.com. There you can find hundreds of vendors in China selling tools (and everything under the sun). Keep in mind that you never know if you are dealing with the actual manufacturer or a trading company, so it is difficult to know if you're getting a good price. Also unless you are ordering large quantities (at least 5,000 pcs), most of these suppliers will not take you seriously. You will need to pay deposits up front, typically 30% down. If you are dealing with a fraudulent company then you may not see your money again or get your goods. If you are dealing with a so-called "gold" or "trust-pass" supplier then they will not have time for small orders. The first step is to get samples. The suppliers will typically provide samples for free but you will need to pay for shipping (e.g. FedEx). If you get the samples and you like them, then the next potential pitfall is that you place an order for the same item but you get something different. This is a common occurrence. The supplier may not tell you that the model is discontinued and will simply send you the latest model even though it's different from the item you approved and paid for. Communications are another key issue. As a fluent Chinese speaker I can deal with communications, but still there are challenges. You will find that you ask very specific questions but get only partial answers to some questions. Information is difficult to come by, communications via email can drag on for weeks, and language barriers can cause costly misunderstandings. At first the person you are communicating with via email may seem well-versed in English, but if the discussion ever gets beyond the simplistic level and becomes more complex their English skills are typically inadequate. When I need important information from suppliers or need to tell them something important I always call them on the phone and speak to them in Chinese so there is no misunderstanding. Next you need to deal with international shipping, customs clearance, incoterms, etc. You will need a freight forwarder, and if you are inexperienced in dealing with these companies they will rip you off. Finally, assuming all goes well and you start placing orders, you need to beware of the "end of the honeymooon" syndrome. You may think you are spending a lot of money and buying a lot of product, but don't forget that this is China: your supplier wants orders for MILLIONS of pcs, not hundreds or thousands. They will quickly lose interest in your business if you do not give them substantial orders. Then you will find your orders sidelined and delayed because their other, bigger customers are pushing them for their attention. Working with an intermediary will result in an extra fee, but in the long run it will be less costly than trying to do it yourself. The tuition you will pay traversing the learning curve will far exceed the cost of a good sourcing/import agent. A good sourcing/import agent consolidates the demand from multiple clients/buyers and has much more leverage over suppliers in China than you as an individual have. Not to mention that sourcing and importing from China is itself a full-time job, and I assume you are in the business of selling and distributing tools, not importing, sourcing, QC, logistics, and all the administrative support that goes behind it. Feel free to contact me for more information: 212-847-7175. Good luck!

Binary options let users trade in currency pairs and stocks for various predetermined time-periods, minimal of which is 30 seconds. Executing trades is straightforward. The system uses user-friendly interfaces, which even an 8 years old kid, can operate without having to read any instructions. But winning trades is Not easy.
Binary trading is advertised as the only genuine system that lets users earn preposterous amounts of money in ridiculously short period of time. Advertisers try to implicate as if you can make $350 every 60 seconds; if it was true then binary trading would truly be an astonishing business.
However, does it make any sense? Can every trader make tons of money in binary trading? Who is actually paying all the money or the profit to traders?
The first challenge is finding a trustworthy binary broker; secondly, you need to find a binary trading strategy, which you can use to make profits consistently. Without an effective trading strategy, there is no way you can make money in this business.
Learning a profitable trading strategy is possible, You should watch this presentation video https://tr.im/03f02
It's probably the best way to learn how to win with binary option

It's really possible to make money with trading online, specially with binary trading. You have just to know where to learn... and I know the best source ( http://forexsignal.kyma.info ) This course explain everything you need to start a very profitable trading activity. Before you "learn" to day trade you first must understand the markets, the products traded in the markets and the rules you have to follow to be in the market. You have to learn what to do, why to do it, when to do it and how to do it. If can learn all of this then and only then can you day trade. Before you day trade you must be able to trade. You also need a written sound trading/investment plan with rules that will not only help you but more importantly protect you, mostly from yourself. You also need sufficient trading/investment capital. Use your own money, there’s no need to go into debt so that you can trade/invest. It is more imperative to have a written money management program in place. Remember never invest 100% of your capital into any one security and never have 100% of your capital invested and a good understanding of the rules

S. runs tremendous operations round any u . s . that is not any longer an best pal. you're loopy i ought to bypass on for days about the irrationality of your question/opinion.

i have attended a lot of seminars, read counless books on forex trading and it all cost me thousands of dollars. the worst thing was i blew up my first account. after that i opened another account and the same thing happened again. i started to wonder why i couldn,t make any money in forex trading. at first i thought i knew everything about trading. finally i found that the main problem i have was i did not have the right mental in trading. as we know that psychology has great impact on our trading result. apart from psychology issue, there is another problem that we have to address. they are money management, market analysis, and entry/exit rules. to me money management is important in trading. i opened another account and start to trade profitably after i learnt from my past mistake. i don't trade emotionally anymore.
if you are serious about trading you need to address your weakness and try to fix it. no forex guru can make you Professional trader unless you want to learn from your mistake.
