FOREX Education - Getting The Right Education For Success PART 1

Consider this fact:

Despite the vast amount of FOREX education available, the bulk of traders still lose.

The reason for this is most of the accepted wisdom does not work.

Here we will look at the FOREX education you need and a simple system that’s FREE That can make you big consistent profits.

Before we start looking at FOREX education itself, lets look at the equations you need to be successful trading FOREX.

Equation for success 1

Robust Method + Confidence + Discipline = Long term currency success.

Now, when you trade you need a method that’s simple and you understand.

Why?

Because if you want to make money trading you are going to have short term losses and you need to the discipline to follow your method when these occur.

If you don’t you will not have a method at all.

Many traders FOREX Education involves following systems they don’t understand or gurus and they simply can’t stick with them and fail.

Equation for success 2

Your method needs to have the following characteristics:

Liquidate losers quickly + Run Profits

Obvious one, but today people receive FOREX education that teaches them to trade short term and even worse day trade.

We have written about this in our other articles and it’s a waste of time. You won’t win, it will just be expensive FOREX education!

Why?

Because, the time frame is to short and moves are random.

You may have profits but you can’t run them in a day and they can never cover your inevitable losses and high transaction costs you accumulate.

Avoid FOREX Education that teaches you short term trading unless you like losing your money

The Education You Need

Most of the education is free and on the net.

FOREX Education you don’t need

There are of course many e-books and courses but most of these are worthless ( only buy one which has a real track record and the seller is a trader ) and there are few of these around.

In part 2 of this article we will cover a system you can learn yourself that is used by many of the worlds top traders and it’s simple to apply and understand.

Learn this fact

There is no correlation between how complicated a method and how successful it is.

In fact, the opposite is true, the more complicated a system is the more likely it is to break in the face of ever changing brutal market conditions.

Finally, as we have said you need to understand how your method works (this is easier with a simple system) as you need confidence to follow it with iron discipline to eventual currency trading success.

Reading

The only material we recommend you buy is classic works by traders who have been at the sharp end and here are some good ones

Market Wizards & The New Market Wizards - Jack schwager

Great books!

Full of inspiration, as the top traders in the world share their wisdom on how they made millions or even billions trading FOREX and other markets

Anything By Jake Bernstein

Trader Vic - Vic Sperandeo

Perhaps my favourite book of all. Packed with common sense from cover to cover from one of the true great traders.

They will cost you about $50.00 and that’s money well spent for the type of FOREX Education they give.

A system for profit

In part 2 of this article your FOREX education will continue, when we start looking at a specific method that you can apply for bigger FOREX profits and currency trading success.

Forex Fundamental Analysis Authority In FX Rates Movement

Forex Fundamental Analysis Authority In FX Rates Movement

The chapter’s abstract: a trader attains much greater success at FOREX unless he is reading analytics by non-trading economists. Here’s some information for meditation below:

What useful can one be taught by FOREX reviews, cooked up by analytical economists, who are incapable of teaching themselves to be FOREX successful?

FOREX economic indicators (released news statistics) are compiled the way required to be interpreted by analysts, who, by the end of the day, may explain any rates travel as the only naturally determined one.

Important objective economic indicators (GDP, Balance of payments, etc.) are leveled up with the subjective ones (University of Michigan, Chicago sentiment, etc.) which in no way may be checked up.

Economic statistics is frequently forged even at the supreme level. Here is my attitude as a trader towards FOREX fundamental analysis and to its impact upon exchange rates dynamics.

At the outset, we’ll get to scrutinize the gambling done by FOREX analytical economists, who are striving to convince traders in exchange rates being tied up to some ersatz fundamental analysis data, viz. to economic indicators being released under daily streaming news.

We will also present technique background used by the banks? Consortium to manipulate news and forecasts the way to vector the rates as any certain day requisite.

The earlier example dated April, 01, 2005 (when the trend has reversed against the logics of all the news released that day). The situation is an absolutely typical occurrence at FOREX, where in 50% cases rates are going DOWN the news vector while in 50% cases - AGAINST the news released. Any analysts? venture to far-fetch the fundamental analysis to FOREX rate quotes has long caused me nothing but smile.

The FOREX analysts? logics is as follows: as soon as the rates reverse against the news, next day they have the explanation that nothing unexpected has occurred with the market having already been anticipating the news, and these news have already been accounted for by traders in current quotes.

Or, else, the market (or traders or other) spotted in the news release not at all what it has read earlier in the streaming news. As a result, the rates by, normal logics, staged a sharp swivel to move in sort of a wrong direction.

But, my God, are traders really in need of the above analysts? para-economic freaks on fundamental or other analysis, once THE RATES HAVE ALREADY MADE THEIR WAY in the said wrong direction?

And why, during uptrend, no analyst has recommended going short on a currency instead of going long in case actual news is superior to the estimate? I have never come across the case.

Analysts should have better derived a simple mathematical formula (hopefully they did have studied at universities) as to a FOREX pair average points travel prior and post critical news (National Bank percent rate hike, Balance of payments, etc.).

By virtue of this formula we, traders, could do some calculations to estimate whether either everything is already accounted for in the current rates or further 100-200 pts grow/decline is to be expected.

But there’s nothing of the kind!

And now, here’s my standpoint as a FOREX trader on why traders will never end up by being supplied with the above mathematical prognosis formula by analysts.

Forex Currency Trading System

Forex Currency Trading System

If you are familiar with trading in the stock market, Forex currency trading system is very similar where you speculate on the exchange rate between two currencies of countries that trade in the world exchange market. Instead of the stock of a publicly traded company, you are now dealing with the currencies of two different countries. In Forex currency trading system, you are buying or selling currencies with the intent to make a profit. The value of any currency is based upon the economic health and the future growth of that country which is a very similar scenario when we look at the stock of any corporation. In essence, Forex trading system involves buying one currency by selling another. The speculation is that the currency you are buying is going to go up in value and the currency you are selling will go down in value in the foreseeable future.

Forex Day Trading- Two Step Trend Analysis

Friday, March 21st, 2008

Forex Day Trading- Two Step Trend Analysis

If you approach forex day trading by just looking at the 5 minute and 15 minute charts there is a strong possibility your account will evaporate sooner rather than later.

In order to get a feel for the market and an indication of the current trend it is necessary to do an analysis by looking at multiple charts on different time frames starting with higher level charts first.

Rather than having the charts cluttered with numerous indicators and signals which can cause signal paralysis, I recommend just two:

1. MACD (with default settings)

2. 200 EMA (Exponential Moving Average)

Now examine your charts using a top down approach:

- Daily

- 4 Hour

- 1 Hour

As you check each chart take note of these two factors:

1) Has MACD crossed down or up and is it above or below the water line?

2) Is price above or below the 200 EMA?

While it is not crucial to have them all lined up on these three time frames for successful forex day trading, if you want to be a cautious trader and go for high probability trades then certainly MACD on the 4 hour chart and 1 hour chart should be in agreement as also should price in relation to the 200 EMA.

The daily chart can be useful in seeing the larger picture and for noting key levels of support and resistance. They stand out on a daily chart so if price is within 100 pips of a crucial level of support or resistance as seen on the daily chart, make a note of the figure.

Then scale down to the lower time frames and see if this level matches with other indicators such as pivot points or Fibonacci levels.

Once you have done this groundwork, NOW you can look at the 15 minute and 5 minute charts for a suitable entry point.

Remember, for successful Forex day trading you need to adhere to the No. 1 commandment: Buy The Dips and Sell the Rallies!

So avoid chasing the market and going with the flow. Instead, wait for price to come the level you want, set your entry order, and let price pull you into the trade.

The Danger With Lower Time Frames

Just concentrating on the 15 minute and 5 minute charts will not give you the bigger picture. You could see what looks like a perfectly good trade and set your stops and limits only to find you get blown out within a few minutes.

By looking at the higher time frame you would probably have seen you were close to a key support or resistance level and either not gone into the trade or adjusted your stops and limits accordingly.

For the novice, Forex day trading can involve a huge learning curve.

Forex Strategy: How The MACD Indicator Can Save You Anxiety

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Forex Strategy: How The MACD Indicator Can Save You Anxiety

The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) indicator can add a degree of certainty to your Forex strategy.

As with any indicator, it is too risky to enter trades on this signal alone. However, as we will see, used with caution on higher time frames, it can help confirm you are going in the right direction and that your trade is higher probability.

First, let’s take MACD apart and describe it’s component parts.

The default MACD on most charting packages sets 2 EMA’s (Exponential Moving Averages) at 26 and 12 days.

This is represented by a colored line (color varies according to charting package) which crosses a different colored 9 EMA often termed the trigger line.

When MACD (the 12/26 EMA) crosses above the trigger line (9 EMA) upward momentum is indicated and vice versa.

A center line, or zero line, often called the water line is also shown in the MACD indicator. When MACD is above the water line an upward trend is indicated, when it is below the water line, a downward trend is indicated.

MACD also includes a histogram, small vertical lines that appear above or below the zero line, not unlike mountains and valleys in appearance.

MACD is a lagging indicator which follows price action.

The histogram is an indicator of MACD. So watching the histogram can give you an early indication of where MACD is going. The height of the histogram can be a good momentum indicator.

How can you use MACD to your advantage?

If you want to be very cautious in your Forex strategy, going only for high probability trades, then pay attention to MACD on the 4 hour and 1 hour charts.

Some traders will only enter a trade when the 4 hour and 1 hour MACD’s are going in the same direction. This will mean a lot less trades but the ones you do take are likely to be profitable. (Agreement of the two MACD’s is used in conjunction with other indicators, not by itself.)

MACD on the 1 hour chart is particularly powerful.

Hedge Funds vs Mutual Funds

Friday, December 14th, 2007

There are lots of choices to consider when you are investing. In past years, hedge funds were just for wealthy and sophisticated investors. Now most market players can buy into the hedge fund type of investment opportunities. The options you have available in hedge funds are as diverse as those in other types of investments.

Hedge funds are much the same as mutual funds but trade only in the private sector. They use pooled investment strategies closely akin to that of mutual funds.

But hedge funds are much more flexible in the ways that investments can be made than mutual funds are. Hedge funds have much more freedom to use leverage and to use short sell tactics. This gives them the potential to be more profitable than mutual funds, and more dangerous. This does not necessarily mean that hedge funds are only for risk takers. It depends entirely on the fund you subscribe to.

Hedge Fund managers usually have their personal money invested in them. They can be counted on to keep a careful watch on the fund and apply all the strategies at their disposal to ensure maximum profits.

Should You Invest in Winter Pool Covers?

Monday, November 19th, 2007

Pools are very expensive generally and it is highly advisable to ensure they are protected from damage but are winter pool covers really necessary? For many pool owners they are not. If you have a pool that you empty out and disassemble each year, they are an unnecessary expense. If you have a pool that is left assembled all year long or if the pool is an in-ground pool then it is a wise investment to purchase a good winter pool cover.

Forex Signal Trading

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

Some signal trading services also provide live charts for the traders to make their judgement. Irrespective of the level of service, a trader should be prepared to pay a minimum subscription fee of $100 a month.

However, the success of a forex signal service should not be measured in isolation or over a relatively short period of time. The traders should use these signal services only as an extra indicator, as one more tool in their trading toolbox. A good way to judge the analytical skills of signal trading service is to ask for historical data. This can expose the claims of trading signal service.

Top Forex Trading Course

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

The foreign currency trading market, or forex, is the largest market in the world. Many traders believe that they must have the top forex trading course in order to make money in the market. There is a huge industry that has developed in order to “teach” people how to trade this market.

Just because there is a course available does not mean that this course will teach you how to trade the forex profitably. Unfortunately, people are paying thousands of dollars for seminars, courses, and hundreds signals or trades each month and not learning how to profit in this market.

The agency that is the guardian of the forex market, the CFTC, requires that anyone who produces a product on trading the forex, place a disclaimer that the forex is risky and promises of profits are unsubstantiated.
Over 95% of first-time forex traders lose their account because they are not ready to trade. The good news is that you can open up a free trading account and practice before you invest your money.

It is recommended that the beginning trader start with an inexpensive forex e-book and test out the trading methods from the book in their practice demo account before trying the trading method in a live account.
Another way to test the particular forex method recommended is to backtest it. You can kill two birds with one stone by going here to sign up for a free demo account and get access to a good set of free charts: http://www.cbfx.com/charts/chartsDemo.htm

You can also trade by receiving forex trades by e-mail. Signal companies charge hundreds monthly for these, but there are free forex signals that can make you money. Again, trade these signals in your demo account before you invest your money. Wealth System Solutions has discovered an inexpensive, profitable signal company whose signals can be auto-traded.
Will you make money every month? This is one of the biggest misconceptions about the forex market that people make. Making money in the forex is not linear. A forex course will make money for you almost every month and in the long run, will give you profits. Many new traders jump from system to system because they lose money one month only to find that the next trading system makes them money, but not every month. The exponential power of the forex will make you money like no other investment. The more money you earn, the more money you will make.

When you are ready to begin trading forex in a live account, many brokers will tell you that you can begin in a mini account for only $250. While it is true that you can open a forex account with that amount of money, it really does not give you the leverage to see your trade move up and down and give you profit. I recommend you start trading in a mini account with at least a thousand dollars. If you wish to open a standard account, it is suggested that you begin with at least seven thousand dollars to minimize your risk. In fact, our forex broker recommends that we deposit at least $1,000 in a mini account or $10,000 in a standard account for our auto-trading system.

In summary, look for a forex e-book that is under three hundred dollars. Trade the forex system in your free forex in a demo account. Backtest it with your free forex charts moving back in time with the charts to see how the trade holds up. Begin with a mini account and watch your forex account grow from there. Don’t be discouraged and discard your forex trading system because you have one month where you don’t profit. Do rethink your forex system if it does not give you profits over the long run.
