I have changed my trading strategy beginning yesterday. This is because of my lacking of time to check the chart from time to time. I will set the exit target just to around 30 pips from my entry. This means less time to trading and checking the chart. The 30 pips will become my daily trading target. Why 30 pips? Well, i think always pass 30 pips so I just take 30 pips as an easy target. Good trad
The biggest mistake that most beginning forex traders make is made before they even place their first trade. In fact, they usually make this mistake before they even open their trading account!Most traders begin by learning the mechanics and terminology of trading.They study charts and look for trends. They try to find predictable patterns and how to profit from them.They learn the meanings of the words "pip", "cable", "swissie", "shoulder", "flag", etc.They study how the "Aussie" behaves when the Royal Bank of Australia lowers rates or what the impact on the EUR/USD will be after Jean Claude Trechet says the word "vigilant" three times during the ECB rate announcement or what the rising price of oil will do for the Canadian dollar.But the one thing most traders don't do before they begin

But let's keep it simple theory for now.So this article was written by a maths geek who focusses more on maths probability theory than trend prediction etc. This area might be completely new to you as the reader by again, its good to widen your sight and keep an open mind on all the trading theories that are lurking around. This will add to your knowledge and experience which you can merge together later to create your own success.

Hello Traders, I wish you a great trading day. Well, today I brought you something really cool for investors that are always browsing through the web, to find the perfect strategic to beat the stock market. As you know, I have a huge experience in the stock market, however I continue making some mistakes in some trades, due to some extra factors that appear without my knowledge. Well, to minimize mistakes in the stock market, specifically for people with lack of information, I have found interesting information across one web site last night that may be a very useful resource for your investment strategy. Universal Market Trader website has announced that it will launch soon Universal Market Trader Interactive Trading Strategy for active traders.

In response to my previous post on the trading strategy some interesting information became available thanks to members of the online form forum my brokerage company. Apparently some trading platforms (I am not sure which) allows the investor to display volumes in lots for example if you want to sell 100 000 shares and you can chose to desply them in lots of 20000 at a time hence once the first
I noticed something very interesting today. This could be a very interesting trading strategy. I have not attempted to do this as I do by no means have the cash available to do so but it could be interesting. Stock trading can sometimes prove to be very interesting indeed :-)take the following scenario:Volume Bids Offers Volume 9,147 326 330 819 900 325 348 3,000 20,000 320 350 12,000 60,200 319 400 114,400 750 315 -1 -1 Notice the huge volume on offer at 400. Lets assume you can enter trades very quickly and no brokerage costs. you buy all the shares at 339, 348 and 350 within seconds from each other, this will cost you R55216.41 (if my calculations are correct) immediately afterwards you sell all the shares you just bought for 400

For those of you who have never heard of the foreign exchange market, you are missing out on the 24-hours-a-day market that is only closed Friday evening through Sunday afternoon. This fast moving market gives you the ability to leverage your transactions not by the typical 2x that you are allowed in the US Stock Markets, but up to 400x in some FOREX intermediaries (meaning for every $1 in your account you can control up to $400 of currency). While this huge leverage can significantly amplify your returns, it can also work against you just as fast until you are left with nothing. A commonly accepted figure is that 95% of Retail Foreign Exchange traders lose money while in this market; what separates the winners from the losers is money management and trading strategy.
What makes this market so unique is that you do not pay commissions to trade, you pay the bid/ask spread, which ends up going to your FOREX broker, The cost is not immediately deducted from your balance, it just goes into
This trading strategy is very similar to the Put Option Dividend Strategy, but this strategy can be applied to stocks that don’t pay dividends, which provides some versatility and diversification. It would also keep transaction costs low as opposed to the Put Option Dividend Strategy with Covered Calls Strategy, which requires more options to be sold instead of one long-term option. The ideal situation would be to combine the two approaches into companies that you feel are fundamentally sound, and you will have a market-beating, low risk portfolio of stocks that generate returns greater than or equal to the market.
The stock I would like to use as an example of this strategy is Google (GOOG). While the ability of you or I to purchase 100 shares of Google may be extremely limited because of its current trading price of $452.96 for a total cost of $45,296.00, it does represent a prime example of this type of strategy.
