Why most traders use it in the wrong way and lose! 2007-12-07 11:56:00 It’s a fact that today is forex news sources are better than ever and its delivered quicker yet the ratio of losers to winners in forex trading remains the same as it did 50 years ago 95% lose and only 5% lose. The news can be useful but you need to know how to use it.First let’s look at a simple equation:Forex Fundamentals (supply and demand news) + Investor Psychology = PriceThe facts are there for all of us to see but assessing the impact of the news is hard because humans (millions of them) all motivated differently see the facts but they all draw their own personal conclusions from them and that’s the price.If it were easy to trade by following the news then there would be a lot more winners than there actually are. Will Rogers once said:“I only believe what I see in the papers”Of course he was making a joke but I am amazed by how many traders
think that because a story appears on Reuters or another newswire, they can trade it - you can’t.The fact is that humans always

They will likely be trading markets with high volatility such some commodities, currencies and the Forex. Some systems hav
Candlestick Indicators - An introduction and a few online trading basics 2007-12-07 11:55:00 There are three main type of indicator representing price movement during any particular time span and the candlestick is probably the most popular. It is the easiest to read and can be tailored to one’s visual preference. Needless to say, its shape resembles a candle and depending on price movement, will show a wick at either or both ends.The basic candlestick appearance is made up of a rectangular body that has a lines protruding from its top and bottom ends, centrally, just like the wick of a candle. Its usual appearance is that irrespective of the wicks, a solid body represents a rising price during the chosen time span and a hollow body for a price drop. Occasionally you may also see a single horizontal line, this represents no price movement at all.Sometimes a preference of colour makes a candlestick visually this easier to interpret. I use blue a rising price and red for a drop. You can also use just an outline for the body if you wish. Your charting software will allow full m Read more:Candlestick

The reason is obvious…No money is at risk therefore emotion is absent.Trading is an emotional game and it’s emotions that make traders

Can Forex Trading ever be stress-free? 2007-11-28 13:15:00 As rewarding and as profitable as forex trading may be, there’s no denying that trading forex for a living can be extremely stress
ful. It can really get your heart racing at times, particularly if it’s your own money at stake, but nevertheless there are ways in which you can reduce your stress levels, as I’m about to discuss.One way of doing so is to devise a form of trading which is automated to an extent and eliminates the need for you to make trading decisions yourself. A classic example would be a breakout system where your main job is to identify tight trading ranges. Then you just need to wait until the price moves outside of this range and trade in this direction, hoping it’s the start of a solid breakout and the price will subsequently move away from this range.Breakout systems are very popular amongst forex traders and are definitely one way which you can trade without too much stress.Another way of reducing your stress levels when trading forex markets is to stop scal Read more:Forex

Currency Trading Success - A simple tip for bigger profits 2007-11-28 13:14:00 If you want to enjoy currency trading success then this simple tip will help you. Most currency traders simply do one thing they shouldn’t and that’s why they lose - so here is the tip.When trading in currencies always keep this point firmly in mind:The amount you trade has no bearing on how much money you are going to make so cut your trading and focus on high odds trades and focus on high odds trades.Most currency traders when they start want to trade and be in on the action - but this means they lose, as the high odds trades don’t come around very often.I know traders who trade 6 - 10 times a year and make over 100% and others who trade all the time and make nothing.Consider the vast number of traders who day trade and lose.Why do they lose?Because all short term moves are random. Sure they have clever systems and work hard but their not trading the odds and a long term trader will win hands down against them in terms of profit.There is the view that the more effort you put in Read more:Trading

Forex Mentor (Scalping Trading Style) 2007-11-28 00:05:00 Scalping is a trading style specializing in taking profits on small price changes, generally soon after a trade has been entered and has become profitable. It requires a trader to have a strict exit strategy because one large loss could eliminate the many small gains that the trader has worked to obtain. Having the right tools such as a live feed, a direct-access broker and the stamina to place many trades is required for this strategy to be successful.Scalping is based on an assumption that most stocks will complete the first stage of a movement (a stock will move in the desired direction for a brief time but where it goes from there is uncertain); some of the stocks will cease to advance and others will continue. A scalper intends to take as many small profits as possible, not allowing them to evaporate. Such an approach is the opposite of the "let your profits run" mindset, which attempts to optimize positive trading results by increasing the size of winning trades while letting oth Read more:Forex

You need to predict to winNo you don’t. If you try to predict forex movements you’re really hoping and guessing and you don’t get rewarded for that in forex trading.

Mortgage Industry 2007-11-24 12:41:00 I would like to suggest a simple case for the concept of licensing. I am not suggesting it for the reason the politicians are working to show their constituents that they are doing ’something.’ Setting up safeguards against predatory lending and fraud in the mortgage industry can help the industry avoid aspects of future problems that have fueled the fire of this real estate bubble.The reality is that convincing your customers to take out a mortgage to buy a home is a no brainer. Convincing them to take out a mortgage from YOU is where the work happens. Despite the contraction in credit and the layoffs, there are still a lot of mortgage brokers out there. Competition still exists.Mortgage

FOREX MENTOR 2007-10-14 07:54:00 Should new Forex traders take Forex trading courses or join a Forex training program? Definitely yes; by now you have probably heard that only 5% of traders achieve consistent profitable results when trading the Forex market. The main reason for this is the lack of education. Don't get me wrong here, taking a Forex training program or a Forex trading course won't guarantee profitable results, nothing can, but choosing the right Forex training program or Forex trading course will definitely put the odds in your favor. Before spending any amount of money on any Forex trading course or Forex training program there are some important aspects you need to take in consideration. There are many training programs available, but not every one of them suits the needs of every trader. The first thing you should be looking in a Forex training program is the content of the material. Unfortunately, most courses or training programs focus or spend most of the time on basic concepts.

GLOBAL FOREX 2007-10-14 07:53:00 FOREX - the foreign exchange market or currency market or Forex is the market where one currency is traded for another. It is one of the largest markets in the world. Some of the participants in this market are simply seeking to exchange a foreign currency for their own, like multinational corporations which must pay wages and other expenses in different nations than they sell products in. However, a large part of the market is made up of currency traders, who speculate on movements in exchange rates, much like others would speculate on movements of stock prices. Currency traders try to take advantage of even small fluctuations in exchange rates. In the foreign exchange market there is little or no 'inside information'. Exchange rate fluctuations are usually caused by actual monetary flows as well as anticipations on global macroeconomic conditions. Significant news is released publicly so, at least in theory, everyone in the world receives the same news at the same time. Currencies

GLOBAL FOREX (Foreign Exchange market) 2007-10-07 03:38:00 For those unfamiliar with the term, FOREX (FOReign EXchange market), refers to an international exchange market where currencies are bought and sold. The ForeignExchange
Market that we see today began in the 1970's, when free exchange rates and floating currencies were introduced. In such an environment only participants in the market determine the price of one currency against another, based upon supply and demand for that currency.FOREX is a somewhat unique market for a number of reasons. Firstly, it is one of the few markets in which it can be said with very few qualifications that it is free of external controls and that it cannot be manipulated. It is also the largest liquid financial market, with trade reaching between 1 and 1.5 trillion US dollars a day. With this much money moving this fast, it is clear why a single investor would find it near impossible to significantly affect the price of a major currency. Furthermore, the liquidity of the market means that unlike some rare Read more:Foreign Exchange
