Making Money with Forex

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 11:11 PM

As one currency rises another must be falling and your aim is to work out which are strong currencies and buy them, against weaker currencies. If you can learn to do this, you can make huge profits. Managing currency exchange is very similar to playing online broker - you try to get a good grasp of the elements that help boost your chances of making gains.

Learning currency exchange methods that can make you profits is relatively simple.

You need to learn the right knowledge, avoid common myths and trade with discipline.

Swing Trading

The hardest form of trading to master not from the point of view of method - but from the point of view of adopting the right mindset is long term trend following as we have just stated.

If you look at any Forex chart, you will see Forex trends that last for months or even years yet, only a small minority of forex traders have the discipline and correct mindset to hold these trends and milk them for their full profit potential.

All traders want to make big gains but capturing them is the hardest bit.

Forex Broker

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:09 PM

If you want to trade then you need a forex broker and not all brokers are the same, here we are going to look at selecting the best Forex broker to help you maximize your FX trading experience.

A broker is not there to give you advice on trading.

Sure, you may need support on the mechanics of trading but all trading signals should be your decision and yours alone.

Here are some points you need to keep in mind when selecting a forex broker to work with.

Courses of Forex

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:09 PM

Firstly look for realism, don’t be deceived by people telling you that you can make a fortune with no effort – you can’t. If you want to get a course in currency trading then it is up to you to learn the logic, understand it, have confidence in it and apply it with discipline, to lead you to long term success.

Trading Best books

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:08 PM

Below you will find my ten of the best currency trading books and there not just for currency traders they are for any form of trading and apply to all markets. Any list of best currency books is of course subjective and this list is no exception. The list comes from reading thousands of books over the last 25 years.

These books won’t tell you how to trade or execute trading signals – building a currency trading system is a personal affair but they will run you through the concepts of trading and most importantly, the areas that many traders neglect namely – obtaining the right mindset for success, executing a trading plan with discipline and strict money management techniques.

How to Become a Currency Trader

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:06 PM

Can anyone become a currency trader from home? The answer is yes, everything about successful currency trading can be specifically learned, by anyone with a desire to succeed but you must avoid common Currency Myths and work on getting the right forex education.

Anyone can learn Currency trading here’s the Proof

A graphic illustration of how anyone can learn to trade was provided by legendary trader Richard Dennis - who took a group of people who had never traded before and taught them to trade in just 14 days.

Currency Swing Trading

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:05 PM


Currency swing trading is aimed at catching reactions within the major trend (either bullish or bearish) and seeks to take advantage of trades that can last anywhere from a couple of days, to around a week in duration.

In this respect it is a short term form of trading and is the only short term forex trading method that works.

Best Trading System

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:05 PM

The best currency trading systems all tend to be simple.

One of the biggest myths of currency trading system design is the more complex you make it or the more work you put into it the more likely it is to be successful – this is simply not true.

Simple forex trading systems work best, because they tend to be very robust in the face of ever changing brutal market conditions.

Make a system too complex and it will have too many elements to break. Generally a good currency trading system will contain just a few parameters or rules, to generate forex trading signals.

International Currency Trading

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:03 PM

The aim of the currency trader when trading currencies is to engage cross-border trading of currencies from one market to another for profit looking to sell weak currencies and buy strong ones. Currencies trend and this is what attracts forex speculators who want to lock into these trends and run them for profit. Currencies trade longer term and many trends can last for months or even years and in between, you have smaller trends lasting for weeks, or a few days.

The factors that impact on currencies can be economic or political and these are reflected in the sentiment of all the traders, who then make the final price. International currency trading looks easy - but judging where millions of traders will drive the price, when their judgment is clouded by greed and fear, is somewhat more difficult.

Strategies of Forex Trading

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:03 PM

My Forex trading strategy is based upon 25 years of experience trading at the sharp end. I have made mistakes, lost money, learned some hard lessons and tried just about every system and indicator out there and this experience has helped me formulate the trading strategy I use today, with my team.

A Simple Way to Build Wealth

It’s simple to understand, takes under 30 minutes a day, needs no intra day monitoring and can be used for: Trend following, catching big trend reversals or used for swing trading.

Confidence & Discipline

Any trader can understand it, apply it and make big profits from it.

To follow any Forex trading system with discipline you need to have confidence in it and this means knowing why the method works and will continue to work.

This method will give you confidence, as when you see how it works you will realize - it can NEVER go out of date and will continue to be effective.

Personalize It

You can customize it to your own trading personality and make it high or low risk depending on your trading personality.

Trading the Odds

Our Forex trading strategies use standard indicators but generates a “trading edge” by the way we combine them TOGETHER – to generate trades with the best risk to reward and the best odds of success.

Trading in Day

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:02 PM

Many more novice traders try to catch trends in daily time frames than any other method however, this method of trend following is doomed to failure.

Fact: The data within a day is totally unreliable and support and resistance levels are meaningless. Volatility can and does, take prices anywhere and all daily movements are random.

You can’t get the odds in your favour and you can’t win – PERIOD

There are countless millions of traders, trading trillions of dollars daily and it’s laughable to think that you can trade in such a short term time frame and win

Technical Analysis

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:01 PM

Forex technical analysis uses the following equation:

Market Perception (trader psychology) + Fundamentals = Price Movement

All Forex technical analysis does is assume that all known fundamentals are quickly reflected in price action (and in the 21st century with instant communications this is truer than ever) - so it simply concentrates on following price action.

Price action reflects all the fundamentals, and more importantly, how all the participants in the Forex markets perceive them.

Traders who study fundamentals claim technical analysis can’t work - because you need to know and study the fundamentals, to know where prices are going - this is simply not true.

Some of the largest price moves in history, have occurred with little or no change in the fundamentals.

Investor Psychology

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:01 PM

Another major problem is that the fundamentals are there for all to see but individual traders all reach different conclusions based upon what they have seen furthermore, humans are not logical beings!

Prices reflect the fundamentals but they also reflect the emotions of the participants and investor psychology is THE major influence on price.

The equation for market movement is simple:

Fundamentals (supply and demand facts) + Human Perception (investor psychology) = Market Price

Markets Discounts

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 11:00 PM

We live in a world of instant communications where traders can and do get the news in a split second - the fundamentals are instantly discounted and the market is looking to the future.

By the time you have seen, studied and acted on the news - it’s already been discounted.

The fundamentals of Price Movement

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 10:58 PM

Many traders like to trade off news stories and watch the fundamentals, it’s popular but will trading news stories make traders money? Let’s find out.

A currency trader, who makes trades based upon fundamental analysis, will look at the supply and demand situation relevant to the particular currency studied, and try and predict the impact of such factors as:

  • The health of the economy
  • Economic policy
  • Interest rates
  • Balance of payments
  • Employment
  • Trade deficit
  • Political factors
And many more.

On the face of it fundamental analysis provides a logical and rational basis for investment decisions however there are problems in applying it and traders who try and trade off the news generally lose.

Forex Myths

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On at 10:58 PM

85% of traders lose when trading currencies and they don’t need to – in many cases they believe various myths that are spread by vendors, using hyped advertising copy which appeals to greedy and naive traders to buy courses and forex trading systems, which simply don’t work.

Below you will find the six common myths that cause the bulk of currency traders to lose and if you believe any of them - you will lose too.

There are many people who claim to have the secret of Forex success from a computer program to beat the market to finding a hidden order of price movement but are there really any secrets of success?

History of Forex

Posted by Ramz | Labels: | Posted On Tuesday, August 18, 2009 at 6:37 PM

The obvious limitations of such a system encouraged establishing more generally accepted means of exchange at a fairly early stage in history, to set a common benchmark of value. In different economies, everything from teeth to feathers to pretty stones has served this purpose, but soon metals, in particular gold and silver, established themselves as an accepted means of payment as well as a reliable storage of value.
