licencing

Hey everyone,

I'm working on an application developped with Qt 4.6.2. I'm linking dynamicaly and I don't want to share my source code. The application is totally free and I don't plan on selling any part of it.

I did not make any changes in the Qt library, I'm only using it to develop the application... I just want to share my free application, without having to share the source code...

My question is, what would be your advices in choosing the correct licencing ?

Thanks in advance for your answers !
