MONEY IS YOURS

To make money trading forex requires a forex broker to have discipline in following the rules of the “game”. If you can stay focused and follow a system regardless of the market conditions, then you can make money trading forex.

Forex trading as with other types of financial investing is risky. Since the FX market is volatile, it can be difficult to predict whether the market is going down or up. That is why proper financial practices is important specifically your money management skills.

In my opinion, many new traders often fail to make money trading forex because they are lured by the easy prospects of making millions of dollars and are confused over the hundreds of indicators and forex financial terms. With tons of data and indicators constantly changing, it can be difficult for new traders to grasp the underlying trends and that will lead to poor trading decisions.

In general, the forex market is easier to predict in the long term than in the short term. However, most new traders often lose sight of the big picture and instead concentrate on recent upward and downward trends. They get too caught up with the latest news and focus on the 1 hour and 4 hours charts believing easy money is made by seizing the right opportunity. That in my view is more like gambling and not investing.

Though the forex market is volatile, very rarely do currencies devalue to the point it becomes worthless, therefore if you have deep financial standing, you can easily wait for the currency to rebounce and make a profit. Sometimes, it may take weeks, months and even years. That is why savvy traders often make a large part of your money liquid rather than tied down by anyone currency.

Another mistake some new traders make is believing there are insider secrets or information that can make them rich. Due to the nature of the forex market which is liquid and having such huge transactions (trillions of dollars are transacted each day), it is almost impossible to have any kind of insider information. Plus, with rapidly changing data and indicators updated almost instanteously, there is no chance of even an insider secret.

If you want to make money trading forex, start to take a long term view of forex trading instead of being the opportunistic investor.

HOW TO GET START

You will hear a lot about forex trading systems when you start getting curious about the forex market. But you should remember that a system is a planned or organized way to do decision making. For example, if you take the same route to work each day, and consistently arrive at your desk ten minutes before you start work, then you have a system. Each step of your journey involves a key decision you have to make. If you stop to pick up a newspaper this involves a new decision and changes the outcome. For instance, you may arrive to work about eight minutes before you begin work.

Similarly, if you begin to trade forex you can have one or more manual forex trading systems that will guide you in every decision you have to make about your trades. That is, you can keep a notebook with your guidelines of when you will begin a trade, exit a trade, allow your profits to run, or even when you will try to reverse your losses. In addition, you will take notes of your winning trades, the time of day, announcements affecting the forex market and so on. All these notes and decision points would be stored in your notebook, or even in your head, so when the opportunity is ripe you jump into the market.

Now this is how all of us decided before computers went mainstream. We kept notes in books, pieces of paper, shoe boxes, and other vehicles waiting for the time we had to decide on something. However, the news about computers revolves around their impact on forex trading systems. All the decisions currency traders used to make using a manual system are now built into a computer application. These applications save time by allowing the traders to focus on the outcome rather than struggling with the basic decisions of trading currency. Since the fundamentals of systems don't usually change, traders can work on improving their trades knowing the computers will take care of the basics. In this case traders can increase their risk to make more profits.

Of course, computers are just dumb pieces of equipment. They can only put out what you put into them, even though they give a more timely output and sort your data better. With forex systems you need to input loads of historical data for the computer to make the right decisions. Normally, you would store all this historical data on pieces of paper in your manual system. But with your brand-new computer loaded with it trading application, you have to put the same data into the computer before it spits out its advice. Also, you need to apply some judgment to what the computer puts out. You don't just apply the information without reviewing other aspects of currency trading.

Since all systems are not created equal, you will have to find one that suits your decision making style. But first you have to know your style before investing in one or more forex trading systems.
