Currency Trading Profit Tips

I'm here to share with you some of my currency trading profit tips. These should help you make more profitable trades that will yield long term success in this business. These need to be applied on a daily basis because that is how you build the routines that make you successful.

Profit Margins

When you first get into this business, it seems to be that most people want to make small trades for small profits to learn how to do this. That is a good thing to do, but there is something you need to understand and that is your broker is getting paid. When your profits are a slim margin and your broker is taking a slim margin, that means your broker ends up taking a significant portion of your profit. It also means that they add to your loss too. If you look at the overall cash, you might find yourself down, even if you're doing good trading that would show a profit if you had better margins.

What is margin trading?

Margin trading is the ability to leverage your money with the brokers and make larger trades. This means you deposit like $100, and your broker will let you trade $10,000. As long as you're making profits, your broker is happy. IF you make losses, your broker will cut you off as soon as you get close to your original deposit of $100.

The automated software of Forex Killer will give you an immediate edge in the market. Make trades that work for your profit line. For more information on the Forex Killer software, check out Forex Charting Software.

Currency Trading Training - 7 Favorite Tips

Currency trading training is not over when a trader finally sees the equity increasing in their account.

The Forex market is a very demanding environment and for a trader to maintain a success level, constant currency trading training is necessary.

The following 7 favorite tips can be used as timely reminders and need to be read and absorbed on a regular basis:

#1 - Take Responsibility

"The buck stops here." Don't blame the markets, or a host of other factors for a losing trade. You entered it for whatever reasons you had at the time. Take responsibility for it.

#2 - Use Each Losing Trade As A Stepping Stone

You lost a trade? Good. It will help you focus on a potential problem in your trading method. If after careful analysis you are satisfied you worked according to your plan, fine. Move on.

#3 - Never Become Impatient With The Market

New traders in the early stages of their currency trading training can be eaten alive by the market. During periods of consolidation with little liquidity the anxious impatient trader will force trading opportunities where there none.

Learn to accept the fact that around 70% of the time price will be in a consolidation channel.

#4 - Focus Daily On Improving Your Trading Skills

Currency trading training is an ongoing process. Day by day, step by step the trader improves. So rather than be preoccupied with profits and losses, concentrate on developing the skills. Your account will start to reflect your focus in time.

#5 - Be Pleased With Well Executed Trades Whatever The Outcome

Is this possible? Yes. You can feel well pleased even with a losing trade if you stuck to your methodology and executed the trade well. It is dangerous to feel good about a winning trade when you went against your trading method to achieve it. Your elation is likely to be short lived. Learn to execute the plan!

#6 - If In Doubt Stay Out

The feeling of regret can drain a person mentally and emotionally from entering a poorly considered trade. Once the trigger has been pulled and the trade starts going wrong, the agony of watching it inch towards your stop should renew in the trader the determination to stay out when in doubt!

#7 - Always Have A Good Reason

Currency trading training involves careful analysis of reasons for entering a trade. Just because price is high is not a reason to go short or long if price is low. Price will do what price wants to do so rather than trading from gut reaction, e.g. "Price can't go any higher (or lower)" learn to detach emotions and use pure technical analysis to establish a number of reasons why you should take a trade.

As currency trading training is a long term commitment, skills and disciplines learned can sometimes be forgotten as bad habits creep in.

It is necessary to constantly renew the thinking processes by repeating over and over the habits of successful traders.

These 7 favorite tips will keep the newer trader out of a lot of trouble!

Some Simple, Yet Effective Forex Trading Techniques

Experts will always assert that one of the surest ways to succeed in currency trading is knowing and implementing forex trading techniques. Foreign exchange is truly a dynamic and demanding investment avenue and there is the need to understand and truly comprehend such trading if you want to make your capital grow from it.

What are forex trading techniques? To begin with, such strategies are special and are schematic processes or styles of trading that are designed and implemented with the principal aim of generating higher revenue or income. Just like in any other form of trading, there is also a need to know and implement proper and working techniques to make your money grow through currency trading. Thus, it would be helpful if you would be familiar with several simple, yet proven effective forex trading techniques.

The first simple technique would be buying low, selling high. In general, this is the principal principle that should be practiced. Through this, investors should always strive to buy currencies that have lower values than what your currency form is. Thus, you would realize that you are actually making your capital valuation instantly. Then, you should wait for sometime until that currency appreciates and when it does, it would be the perfect time to sell it, which would return your money into your base currency, but this time in higher value.

Another simple technique is to convert your capital into US dollar as a base currency. If you are already having the dollar as a base currency, you could stick to it, but otherwise, it would be advisable if you convert into dollar. From there, you could easily convert into other currencies. Almost all currencies have direct dollar conversion rate, making it easier for traders to determine and actually run transactions.

Lastly, trade currency based on to market and economic factors. This technique employs the value of research about the factors and risks of the economy of particular countries. For example, if you want to trade into Japanese yen, it would be helpful if you would first understand what is going on in the business environment in Japan. This way, you could easily foretell if your converted money would rise or fall.

As an investor or trader, it should always be your goal to make your capital grow. Know and adopt effective forex trading techniques and see how your money could attain its real growth potential in no time.

An Overview

So, you want to make big bucks trading the markets? We've heard all the stories of how fortunes were made in the time it takes to say, "where's the keys to my Porsche?" But can it be done? Well - maybe. And you want a piece of the action, yes? And I don't blame you. Trading for a living, for me, is the best occupation there is. No boss, no overheads to speak of, work when you want, anywhere you want, freedom; just you, the computer, and your plan. Plan? What plan?

Of course, 'plan'. Anything in life worth doing must have a plan of sorts. Trading is no different. In fact trading without a plan is asking for trouble of the most serious kind, financially speaking. You must have a plan. Read on.

The content of this very modest document has been the subject of many books, has been studied in depth by the very best of us, and will be debated for years to come. My aim here is to plant a seed that hopefully will steer you in the right direction thus saving you countless dollars, not to mention heartache and ruin.

Before you start to lay your hard-earned money on the line, there are many, MANY, things that need to be taken into consideration. The very first lesson to learn quickly is that the guys and gals who trade the markets for a living, the professionals, are not going to think twice about taking that money from you. They know all the tricks in the book, and a few more to boot. The idea is to act and think like those professionals and eventually become one. The profits will then begin to flow.

If you have no idea what you are doing, then you may as well just mail a cheque to those above-mentioned professionals and leave it at that, saving a lot of time.

On the other hand, after losing 'quite a bit' in the markets, I copied them and you could do the same. Learn their tricks. In short, study, study some more, then continue studying. As they say, 'knowledge is a powerful thing'.

Everything will then fall into place.

Where do I start?

Trading is very, very easy. Making a consistent profit is not - unless you have the plan we talked about earlier; a master plan. You need to learn, and sustain, some good habits. The primary weapon in your arsenal in fighting your opponents is getting the odds in your favour. Gaining an EDGE. Just like the casinos. Take a look at the house edge in the casino and how small it is. Something like 2.5%, this is enough to make them a fortune over time! It's just the same with trading the forex markets, get yourself an 'edge'.

Let's stay with the casino example for a moment. They often have losing days when a punter will win big, but at the final reckoning; those boys will be in the money. And that is because of the 'edge'. Your edge starts here. It's not one item to concentrate on but your whole approach to trading. Sound complicated? Not really, when you break it down into its component parts. We'll do this now with headings and sub-headings. There really is no point in doing this exercise if you only pay lip service to it. You must follow your rules because they will get you into the money, no argument.

Rules

There's no point in having trading rules if you don't follow them, which very nicely brings us to our only golden rule.

FOLLOW YOUR DEFINED RULES RIGIDLY

This rule may sound silly but think about it, how often do you break minor rules in some other pursuit such as driving, sport, work? Sometimes it can be costly, in forex it can be very expensive indeed, account-wise.

My forex rules are split into three sections, you may wish to do the same:

a) General - similar to laws

b) Trading - similar to regulations

c) System - well, rules when actually trading your system

Remember, this is a very short article on the ways that I have tackled the problem of gaining an edge in my trading, and in trying to emulate the professionals. This is by no means the only way, so you will need to address your trading traits in a similar manner to extract those profits from the market that we all aspire to. Let's look at the general rules.

The reason you are reading this is because you want to make money. I have been in your shoes doing exactly the same thing, but at the wrong end of an 8,000 account. Yes, all gone! It wasn't the first account that I had delivered to 'the professionals' so something HAD to be done. I made rules and divided them into sections, analysing them yet further. Here are my general rules that you may want to consider:

a) General rules

Work/study hard continuously, knowledge is essential, but

Strike a balance, have a life. Trading at all times will make you stale

Take responsibility for every decision that affects your trading

Self-belief in your aim, in what you are trying to achieve

Do you want to trade full time or part time, how many hours per day?

What IS your aim, what do you want to get out of it, know yourself?

The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary

Treat trading as a business and organise it as such

A whole book could be devoted to just the above section, this article cannot delve too deeply into what only you can answer for yourself. Please take the time to write down your rules and how you will address them. Your trading will evolve for the better I assure you.

b) Trading rules

What type of trader am I, do I want action, stress etc?

Have a system that fits your trading style

Become good at one style, tweak it to suit you

Keep an open mind for each and every trade

Do not form opinions on the market, let it tell you where it's going

Do not listen to the opinions of others

The words 'hope' and 'wish' are not in your trading vocabulary

Trade with money that is not indispensable, can you afford to lose it?

Learn to take losses as part of the business, learn from them

Take regular breaks from trading

Don't over commit yourself, not too many open positions

Stand aside if you are not sure about a trade

Do not add to losing positions

Keep the dollar signs away, try to score points

Without fail, have a trading plan and trade that plan

That last point in the list brings us to our final section in honing our trading skills, and making a living from trading the currency markets.

c) System rules

Most aspiring traders hope to win on every trade. This is just not possible and there will be losing trades. It is a fact of trading life. It should not be taken as a failing of your rules or system when these occur. Rather, it highlights how good your rules are in dealing with those losses. The aim is to win more than you lose by utilizing the 'edge' described in the previous paragraphs. This 'edge' is gained by following your rules religiously, coupled with a trading system that suits your style. I have managed to do this after almost ten years of trading and using many differing systems, styles, and techniques. We will add to your edge in this section. As a minimum your system should include:

What time frame you will be trading

The times not to trade

Clear and unambiguous means of entry into the trade

The reasons for entering and exiting the trade

What your means of exiting the trade will be

What size your stop loss should be

Will you use trailing stops

What position size will you use

Dealing with news announcements?

Will you scale out of the position etc. etc.

Each system has its own merits (or lack of) on dealing with the problems presented by the markets on a daily basis. Another example that I will mention is my own unwritten rule that I never trade on the first Friday of every month, this is when the NFP report is released and the markets tend to be a little too volatile for me. This is a lesson that I have learned the hard way (and I've paid for that lesson handsomely).

You can see, then, that your rules can evolve as your trading experience grows. You will also see that you will become more confident in your trading as you add rules to your overall trading system. Sometimes though these rules will be added after experiencing some drawback, or even a minor disaster, but this is all part of the learning process. You can bet your bottom dollar that the top traders amongst us have suffered a disaster or two along the way. The idea is to learn from those mistakes.

The trouble is that it's difficult to learn a lesson by the written word alone. Some form of interaction is best in order to firmly plant that lesson in our brain. This is where experience comes in. But, I firmly believe that these pages will get you started on the right path. My own system has very clear rules on the items mentioned above, plus many more, keeping me out of trouble when my money is on the line. Before I even pulled up a chart onto my computer, I started by asking myself what I actually wanted my new system to address by making a list. I already had most of the General, and Trading rules in place, in fact I have added to them fairly recently, but I wanted a whole new set of System rules. These are the items on my list that enabled me to build a new, easy to use, profitable system:

First and foremost it must trade with the trend

Must be good for all currency pairs

Must be good for all time frames

Must try to get me into the big moves of the day

Must be user friendly

Must be simple

Must utilize more than one of my strategies on the same chart

Must keep losses to a minimum

Must enable decision-making at a glance

I must be able to use aggressive/non-aggressive tactics

Must have a higher time frame and trend confirmation

Must have clear and unambiguous accurate entry signals

Must also give clear re-entry signals into trends

Must tell me when to exit

Must have multi-timeframe trading on one chart

Must give an audio alarm when signals are generated (important)

Must stop me from overtrading (important)

Must stop me from fishing for tops and bottoms (important)

Don't take any part of this set-up lightly, as it will definitely pay dividends at a later stage of the whole process. The last two items on the list had cost me dearly in the past. The audio alarm is to call me to the computer when a trade presents itself, this way I do not need to stare at the screen all day. No more missed opportunities. Perfect.

The biggest task was to convert those 'must haves' into a working system that enabled me to trade for a (profitable) living. This has been achieved after no small amount of work, blood, sweat, and tears! In some small way, I hope that I have given you a base on which to build your own trading strategy.

The Black Dog Trading Strategy goes from strength to strength. I wish you all the luck in your trading endeavors.

Is Forex Better Than Stocks? 3 Reasons Why It Is

If you're looking for the ultimate trading market, forget Wall Street. The Forex Market is where the largest volume in trading is going on, with an incredible amount of nearly $2 billion worth of trading in a 24 hour day. Why is the Forex Market better than stocks? Why is a dollar better than a nickel? Because it's worth a lot more. That is one of the most basic and obvious answers to this question. There is a fortune that can be made in trading Forex because the Forex market is constantly trading.

Reason #1 Why Forex is Better Than Stocks Because:

The Forex market trades a larger volume than any other market in the world. The stock market trades roughly $10 billion in volume a day. That's not bad at all, but it isn't even 1% of what the Forex market trades daily. Not even close.

The Forex market trades an average of $1.8 TRILLION dollars of currency a day. No other market in the world comes remotely close to this figure. $1.8 Trillion dollars is only the first reason that the Forex is better than stocks.

Reason #2 Why Forex is Better Than Stocks:

No Enron, no WorldCom, no Tyco. These currencies are based on the strength of an entire nation's economy, not the reports of one company. This doesn't mean there isn't risk - every market has risk and Forex is no exception, but usually stable countries don't fall overnight.

I had a friend who went to college, got into stock trading, and had a personal stock portfolio worth six figures by the time he was only 27. Not bad. But almost all of it was McCloud, Enron, and MCI WorldCom. Nearly overnight his small fortune was worth less than $20,000.

All because of false stock reports from CEOs. This can't happen in the Forex. While economies can go up or down, there is both technical and fundamental analysis that can help you identify ahead of time the potential for a currency that is going to drop. Forex trading has risks like anywhere else, but one corrupt CEO is not one of them.

Also, when one currency goes down, the other in the pair goes up, so being on the right side can mean that one country's misery can still makes you a fortune.

Reason #3 Why Forex is Better Than Stocks:

There's always action. Unlike the stock market, which has a daily close to the market day, the Forex market is open every day, except Saturday. There is only one close in the Forex for an entire week, meaning almost any day, any time, you have the ability to trade. This allows a great flexibility in when, where, and how you can trade. Options are good.

These are only three of several reasons why the Forex is better than stocks, but if you want to trade where the most action is, there's no question you want the Forex market.

Is Foreign Exchange Trading Profitable

I'm here to answer the question, is foreign exchange trading profitable? The answer to this question is yes. A lot of people think that this might be some sort of scam, but this market has been around for a long time. It's just the last decade that individual people were given the right to trade in it from their own home. It's a continuously growing market with over three trillion dollars a day moving around. It is definitely a profitable market for most people and I'll share some of my experiences on how to get it to work for you.

The first thing about starting out in this market is having a great broker. A broker acts as the middleman between you and the marketplace. It holds your money and makes the trades when you request them. The problem (like many on the internet) is that you can't really tell the difference in websites from legit businesses and some operation run out of a basement. Obviously when it comes to your money, you want to have the quality similar to a bank. I found the best way to research these brokers is online forex forums. There is constant discussion about them and you just have to read through threads to learn which ones are good, bad and scams.

My last tip is on demo accounts. Is foreign exchange trading easy? Yes and no. I prefer to think of it as a process with a learning curve that takes time. A demo account is an excellent tool to start using now, without having to risk any money on the market. You get to have simulated experience of actual trades, the only difference is you don't use real money. It builds confidence and allows you to figure out what you need to do.

Forex Trading Education - Understanding the Lingo Part 1

When learning anything new there are usually a few words or terms you don't understand so I'll do my best to clear those up. When I first heard the word "pip" I thought it was just something English people said; I don't really know why. Try saying it with an English accent aloud right now, the more people in the room the better. Now say it twice and add a "jolly hoe" to the end (in the English accent of course). Hah, now that's good stuff.

I'll start with the obvious terms, those being "major and minor currencies". As you may have guessed major currencies are the 8 most-traded currencies (USD, JPY, CAD, EUR, GBP, CHF, NZD and AUD); incase you aren't sure that's US dollars, Japanese yen, Canadian dollars, Euro, British pound, Swiss Franc, New Zealand dollars and Australian dollars. Minor currencies are all the other currencies (who'da thunk it?).

Base currency would be the first currency in any pair; it shows how much the base is worth against the secondary currency. Like if the USD/JPY rate equals 108.0263 then one USD is worth 108.0263 JPY. Typically in Forex markets the USD is the base currency for quotes; exceptions to this are the GBP, EUR, AUD and NZD.

Next we have quote currency; this is the secondary currency in any pair, it's often called the "pip currency" as well.

What is a pip? A pip (stop saying it in an English accent!) is the smallest unit price for any currency. Almost all currency pairs have five significant digits and a lot of them have the decimal point after the first digit (as you can see above, JPY is a big exception). Like if EUR/USD equals 1.5448 (which it currently does) a single pip equals the smallest change in the fourth decimal place (that being 0.0001). That means if the quote currency (or secondary currency in one pair) is USD, one pip will always equal 1/100 of a cent. Pretty simple right?

Forex Trading Just Got a Lot Easier - Forex Automated Trading Software

If you have been trading on the forex market then you know how exhausting it can be to keep track of. The alternative is loosening up on the whole thing and unfortunately seeing your profits go with it. They say necessity is the mother of invention and hence the reason that forex automated trading software has become so popular in recent years. Trading software is on the incline as an estimated 25% of all forex traders are running auto forex campaigns now in 2008 which is up from the 18% that were reportedly doing it in 2005. There are a number of reasons which traders make use of forex automated trading software in their auto forex enterprise.

A big reason is the fact that these programs work tirelessly for you every day and night. It would be near impossible to stay on stop of the ever changing and dynamic forex market constantly, particularly as the market practically never closes. Instead, these programs trade on your behalf using stop loss and take profit protocols, thus minimizing your losses and maximizing your profits. This ensures that you are on the winning side of a trade almost 100% of the time without you having see over it yourself.

Some traders employ forex automated trading software for the accuracy which makes the biggest difference in your forex enterprise. These programs generate signals which essentially predict what certain forex pairs are going to do next and then trade accordingly for you. They make use of complex mathematical algorithms which is an improvement from the old way of doing things when expert analysts would read the market and do the math work by hand or worse make predictions from guesswork. While this worked at the time, it was far from perfect. These programs take out the possibility of human error and emotion to make cold, calculated trades for you. The best of these programs are incredibly accurate and offer updates to continually make them better and more accurate to keep them in front. As they say, when companies compete, it is the consumer who comes out the winner.

As I said, there are a number of differing programs on the market today. Some are sloppily thrown together products just out to capture your eye and your buck, whereas there are a small number of winners who are single handedly keeping this market alive. After testing a number of these programs, I set up a website where I review forex automated trading software at http://www.forexautotradingreviewed.com which I advise you visit and do some reading to determine which product is best for you in building up your forex enterprise.

A currency pair is the exchange rate of one currency over another. The most traded currency pairs are EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD.

Trade can happen only when you compare one currency with another. To quote an example - you cannot trade by buying and selling USD alone.

Forex trade will happen when you accept the price offered for this transaction by your dealer. To continue with our example upon receipt of your concurrence to the price quote, the dealer will actually buy and sell as per your instruction and confirm the price for this trade transaction involving sale of USD and purchase of EUR.

Forex trading tutorial give detailed explanation of some of the technical terminologies also. For example technical terminology for first currency of a currency pair is base currency which is USD in the referred example. The second currency is referred to as the counter or quote currency. Each currency pair is expressed in units of the counter currency needed to get one unit of the base currency.

Forex trading tutorial are indeed of great help in getting us started. However a word of caution here. While trading in currencies take care to ensure that you trade only when you expect the currency you are buying to increase in value relative to the currency you are selling. If the currency you are buying does increase in value, you must sell back the other currency in order to lock in a profit.
