You really only need to look twice maybe three times a day at most and that's it. So what are the best times to trade?The first point I want to make is you will hear a lot of rubbish written about the best times to trade.Today there is a huge market in telling people they have to be in touch with price quotes all the time to make money - Nonsense!This is normally put about by day traders (who all lose anyway as all short term movements are random) who think that it helps them.

Trading The Fundamental News 2008-02-23 03:52:28 While technical analysis is critical to currency trading - especially for pinpointing entries and exits - it is insufficient on its own for creating a comprehensive trading game plan. Market sentiment in FX is driven primarily by the economic and geopolitical news of the day. The key players in the currency market - Fortune 500 multinationals, the world's central banks, multibillion-dollar hedge funds and the top tier investment banks that service them - do not care if there is a double top in the EUR/JPY on the hourly candles. Instead, they formulate their trades by analyzing the most recent economic news and geopolitical developments, as well as the latest pronouncements from G-7 monetary authorities. Therefore, the proper approach to FX trading can be summarized as follows: trigger fund Read more:Trading

Deadly Forex Trading Mistakes That Assure Failure 2007-11-10 00:34:26 Before venturing into your forex trading journey there are some things you need to be aware of, otherwise you could succeed on your trading adventure, and we don't want that to happen, do we? This Forex
trading guide will help you track the most costly mistakes Forex traders do. First of all, make sure you don't have a trading system. Having a trading system might increase the odds of your success. If you have a system, you will have an objective way to get in and out the market. When traders create their trading systems they think objectively since there is no position to be taken at the moment. If there is no position to be taken, there is also no money at risk, if there is no money at risk, we do think objectively and are open to every possibility, thus we are able to find low risk trad Read more:Trading
Forex Strategy: Trading with Stochastics 2007-11-10 00:21:29 Stochastics are amongst the most popular technical indicators when it comes to ForexTrading
. Unfortunately most traders use them incorrectly. In this article we will review the correct way to use this popular technical indicator.George Lane developed this indicator in the late 1950s. Stochastics measure the current close relative to the range (high/low) over a set of periods.Stochastics consist of two lines:%K – Is the main line and is usually displayed as a solid line%D – Is simply a moving average of the %K and is usually displayed as a dotted lineThere are three types of Stochastics: Full, fast and slow stochastics. Slow stochastics are simply a smother version of the fast stochastics, and full stochastics are even a smother version of the slow stochastics. Interpretation:Buy when Read more:Strategy

Or do we?BUT 'let your profits run' is harped on by almost every guru and book writer on the planet - unfortunately they never answer the inevitable question that follows "how far?"How far is letting a profit run? if you allow a 1 pip trade to go to 2 pips you've let it run. if you let a 10 pip trade go to 500 you've let it run - when exactly is enough?To give some background to differing opinions before the floodgates of posts follow, please allow me to present some popular opinions and their reasoning behind them.1. trade it till it's dead - in this scenar Read more:Trading

Forex Trading : Can You Be A Successful Forex Trader Trading Just One Indicator Only? 2007-11-03 06:38:34 In a quiet moment last weekend I was wondering if you could trade forex full-time just using one technical indicator.My conclusion was that it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to make consistent profits, but then I remembered back to when I first started trading forex a few years ago, and realizing that back then I pretty much only used one indicator - the Exponential Moving Average / EMA (15), and did make consistent profits.Technically speaking I didn't use only one indicator as I also displayed the EMA (50) and EMA (100) on the same chart to help me decide on exit strategies, and nowadays I use a lot more indicators to confirm my positions, but nevertheless I still think this basic approach of using an EMA (15) on a 30-minute chart could still generate regular profits.Th Read more:Trading

Applying Poker Strategies to Trading The Markets 2007-11-01 13:56:38 By: James LeeAs a professional no-limit holdem poker player prior to my trading career, I find that both professions share many similarities. Poker
and trading are both a game of probabilities. Individual psychological makeup is also important to control emotions during times of tilt and euphoria.In poker, a player can choose the stake he is willing to play. In the futures markets the stakes are chosen by the size of the trade. However, one of the biggest differences I found is as follows:1. In poker, you are automatically offered the option to play a hand that you are dealt. For example, in no-limit holdem this can be a Q10, KK, 10J, 2-7, etc....Each starting hand begins with a probability. For example, pocket 9's has a 52.4% favorite against an AK suited.

These forex trading strategies are generally based on a strategy that allows them to find good trades. And the strategy is based on some form of market analysis.

Forex Trading & The Science Of Getting Rich 2007-11-01 13:55:35 I first became aware of “the science of getting rich” a number of years ago when someone sent me a reprint of a book of that name by Wallace Wattle.The book is a very “dry” read but the author claimed that getting rich was an exacting science which means that if anyone applied the rules – to the letter, then the outcome, by scientific definition, would be a true replication.In other words, if one were to apply the rules of “the science of getting rich”, one would inevitably become rich.In many ways, not dissimilar to applying a trading system that is proven to work, provided the user applies the system rules exactly, then the same success should be replicated time and time again.You will recall – unless you have been trading Lunar Currencies (joke) – that we recently had Read more:Trading

How to Manage Your Forex Commodity Trading Money For Maximum Profit 2008-04-02 11:25:34 Before you begin to Forex
commodity trading, you need to learn the basics of money management first. One of the things you need to do is to decide how much money you can afford to lose on a single trade, but just as importantly, you need to have a system set up that you decide you're going to follow when you do your trades.One of the biggest mistakes beginning traders make is that they decide they're going to try to gamble and try to win the jackpot, but that's not the way to make true money in Forex trading. Most important is that you make consistently profitable trades with an occasional loss.It's true that some people do make money if they "gamble" in Forex trading, but most people don't. If you truly want to be a successful Forex trader with a consistent profit set up, you'll need to h Read more:Manage
