Forex Scalping

2009-07-16T21:27:00.001-07:00

Forex scalping is the art of using high leverage and a large number of short term trades to steadily increase an account. Usually, only 1 to 5 pips are targeted for each trade. This type of trading appeals greatly to day traders and those looking to minimize the risk involved in trading currencies. Next to money management, “risk control” is the single most important trait to a surviving (and thriving) currency trader. The small amount of time that is spent in the market limits much of the risk in exposure in comparison to a longer term system. Also, the freedom involved in a speedy Forex scalping system in such a liquid market is a “magnet” that drives many traders from other markets to try their hand in currency. A disciplined and steady scalper could seamlessly double or triple an account, and spend only a fraction of the time in the market as a common day trader.

The Forex market is a relatively new market, being started in the 1970s. However, despite its newness, it is today the largest market in the world, worth more than a trillion dollars a day. That means that a lot of money is going through the channels, and it is open for anyone who wants a piece of the action. While it may be intimidating at first to enter a market of that size, there are still many advantages for investing in the Forex.

Firstly, because of its size, you will never be stuck with stock that you cannot sell. There will always be a buyer for whatever you have, and chances are that your trash is some one else's gold. In addition, the Forex is accessible 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This means that you will be able to make trades at all hours, since there are Forex traders in ever time zone, and this adds to the liquidity of the stock. But perhaps the best thing about the Forex is that most of the transactions are done online, with all the comfort and ease that that entails. An internet Forex trader does not need to meet his broker in order to make trades.

I uploaded a new e-book about trading in the psychology section today. It’s The Disciplined Trader by Mark Douglas. The book is all about the process of developing the new winning attitudes in the financial market traders. The great deal of success in the market depends on a clearness of the trader’s mind and his ability to make rational thoughtful decisions. Unfortunately the market is quite a difficult entity, which can disturb emotions and dim minds. From the psychological point of view the market should be accepted as the trader’s environment, but its actions towards the trader should be treated with a great care. Discipline is a tool, which can help a trader see not his guilt, worthlessness or helplessness in the bad trade outcomes but rather see losses as the expenses. Meanwhile, the profits shouldn’t be treated as the rewards for trading itself but rather as a reward for the weighted decision made at a right moment of time. You can download this book for free:

American Investment

American Funds is one of the nation’s oldest mutual fund companies, and has been around since 1931.

Their 30 funds have more than $900 billion in investments with funds from over 40 million shareholder accounts.

The fund in question, on the other hand, is one of the nation's oldest (since January 1, 1934) and largest mutual funds.

The fund mainly does investments in blue chip companies, which represent a wide cross section of the U.S. economy.

Some of the characteristics of the funds include low expense structure (gross) (0.56% vs. 1.19% for an average large-cap value fund as of June 2008) and good average annual total return (lifetime of the fund, with sales charge, as of May 31, 2008) of 12.58%.

The fund principally does investments in common stocks, but can also have securities in the fund that are convertible into common stocks, as well as bonds, U.S. government securities, nonconvertible preferred stocks, and cash and equivalents.

Emotionally Trading

2009-07-16T21:22:00.001-07:00

It is not a surprise that many people find profitably trading the Forex market so difficult and here's my take on this... apart from strategy and money management wise (which are both really vital to a trader's success), one must also have a good hold on psychology. You see, all traders are humans which means we are fleshly and carnal which incidentally also means we naturally have emotions in us.

Alone You think like that - “What can I do alone?” and consistently minimize your ability. Don’t do it and remember! Always a one person has changed the world. They are not always true what have written in history books. Lydian did not think up money. It has invented just by one Lydian person and he has changed the world. And the “writings” did not thought up by Sumerians too. May be it has done by a poor Sumerian person... World always have.

Have you ever heard of a stop placement strategy that trails
stop based on previous 'high' points? It is called Chandelier
exit as it hangs down from the high point or the ceiling of our
trade, just as a chandelier hangs from a room ceiling. The
distance, which is usually calculated from the high point to the
trailing stop; could also be calculated in dollars or in
contract based points. However, the value of this trailing stop
moves upward very promptly as higher highs is reached

Before purchasing any forex software there are a few essential items that should be included. The most important is security and your online forex trading software should include a 128 bit SSL encryption which will prevent hackers from accessing any of your personal details and information such as your account balance, transaction history, etc.

Providing the best security for your forex trading will include a company that provides 24 hour technical server support for your forex software, 24 hour maintenance should anything go wrong, daily backups of all information, and a security system that has been designed to prevent any unauthorized access. Along with these security protocols there are also some forex trading companies that use smart cards and fingerprint scanners to ensure that only their employees can have access to their servers.

When a quote changes, or when currencies go up or down, you will know about it right away. Forex trading is conducted on real time, so you will be very up-to-date on all financial trends. Most forex trading software is also equipped to provide reports and statistics of previous quote patterns and help you determine where the quotes will be going next. Also, these will allow you to look at the broad scope of the different forex markets and how they measure up against each other. So, when you pick out software, choose one with charting software included.

Forex Trainning Series

2009-06-10T03:50:00.001-07:00

Non Forex traders are generally under the impression that the math involved with Forex trading is more complicated than in other forms of trading. Truth is the math involved in currency trading is exactly the same as in any other form of trading. We use the same addition, subtraction, multiplication and division we learned in grade school.

In stock trading the evening news anchor announces the Dow gained 30 “points” today, and in Forex trading we hear the US Dollar is up 30 “pips.” Well that’s fine, but points and pips won’t pay our rent. So let’s convert “points” and “pips” using the basics of Forex math into what it means to us – money. This section will cover basic, but very important principles we utilize in our daily trading activities - prices.

The first thing that you’ll notice about the prices in most currency pairs is they have a couple extra numbers in them compared to a stock quote, or the actual currency exchange rate listed in the travel guide. A typical stock quote looks like “Sprint = 5.71” in the financial section of your local paper; and the published Canadian Dollar to US Dollar exchange rate looks like 1 US Dollar = .98 Canadian Cents. But the traded currency pair rate we use in the Forex market for the same currency is USD/CAD = 0.9887.

Two main reasons exist for breaking down the unit of currency past the .01 cent level. First - the sheer volume of trading on the currency market. The Forex market trades more money in one day than all the stock markets combined trade in a month. Second - the size of the lots we trade in Forex. Stocks typically trade in 100 share standard lots, whereas one standard lot of a currency pair is 100,000 units of the base currency. A full one cent move on a currency pair is a very large movement when considering the huge amount of money being shifted; hence we need to monitor currency prices down to the sub penny level, usually four decimal places out.

Ression On Forex Trading

2009-06-10T03:48:00.000-07:00

I’ve seen the dreaded “R” word rear its ugly head in a few choice financial columns that I loyally read. Not many; but enough to make my spider senses tingle a bit. Seems as if some feel conditions are beginning to line up in such a way to cause at least some thought be given to the issue of a possible recession in our business decisions. And my business is retail Forex trading.

When we talk about recession as currency traders we must discern the type of recession we are talking about. Most of the time we are looking at the economy of an individual nation or group of economically entwined nations. Rarely do you hear the term “global recession” mentioned, as this occurrence is rare due to the nature and vastness of the global economy (but not impossible). Generally speaking, if some countries economies are contracting, others are expanding to fill the void.

This puts us in excellent position as currency traders. Since a trade on the forex market differs from stock trading in that, instead of buying or selling one equity, we simultaneously buy one currency and sell the other (or vice versa). Further, stock traders have special conditions placed on them in order to sell, or short, stocks that can be limiting and annoying at best. Conditions like higher margin minimums and the “up tic” requirement constantly nag and erode possible profits. Currency traders have no such requirements since every trade has a sell, or short, involved with one of the two currencies being traded.

Our objective as currency traders on the forex market focuses on which nations are struggling with recession, and which nations will prosper from that struggle. If a nation’s economy enters a recession - sales recede, profits decline, jobs decline and price of goods decline. This also adversely affects national trade balances, research investment levels and venture capital, all of which are vital to economic expansion. When this happens, governments and financial institutions must free up credit and monetary supply by reducing interest rates; making the currency less attractive to investors. This switching from low interest currencies to higher interest currencies on the Forex market is also known as the carry trade. In carry trades, investors borrow currencies whose countries have lower interest rates, such as Japan and Switzerland, to buy higher-yielding assets.

Forex Myth

2009-06-10T03:46:00.000-07:00

Forex trading online has become more and more popular in recent years, due in large part to the popularity of stock trading on the internet. But along with this popularity comes the inevitable hype, myths, and at times, complete untruths. While many of these myths are relatively harmless - they do cast doubts on the Forex industry, and some can actually be costly to beginning currency traders as well. Here is the list of the most common Forex myths:

· Forex trading is easy. First the truth. It is easy to start Forex trading and it is easy to buy and sell currencies online. But succeeding and making money is anything but easy. It takes education, time and practice. Of course, there are talented traders that learn very fast, but generally speaking, starting traders should dedicate part of their time to educating themselves, practicing and developing strategies.

· Forex is gambling. This is a myth and is often heard about all forms of trading; whether it's stocks, bonds, futures, options etc. In reality Forex is the epitome of macro economics in the purest form, even more so than other types of market trading as it deals solely with the performance, structure, and behavior of national or regional economies as a whole, and their interrelationships with each other. If this were true, then all the national economic administrators, advisors, consultants and students are the world's best gamblers. Rather we are all students of economics, technical analysis, fundamental analysis and psychology.

Important Forex Trading Terms

2009-06-10T03:30:00.002-07:00

Spread
The spread is the difference between the price that you can sell currency at ( Bid ) and the price you can buy currency at ( Ask ). The spread on majors is usually 5 pips under normal market conditions. For more information on the trading conditions at Saxo Bank, go to the Account Summary on your Client Station and open the section entitled "Trading Conditions" found in the top right-hand corner of the Account Summary.
Pips
A pip is the smallest unit by which a cross price quote changes. When trading forex you will often hear that there is a 5-pip spread when you trade the majors. This spread is revealed when you compare the bid and the ask price, for example EURUSD is quoted at a bid price of 0.9875 and an ask price of 0.9880. The difference is USD 0.0005, which is equal to 5 "pips". On a contract or position, the value of a pip can easily be calculated. You know that the EURUSD is quoted with four decimals, so all you have to do is the cancel-out the four zeros on the amount you trade and you will have one pip. Thus, on a EURUSD 100,000 contract, one pip is USD 10. On a USDJPY 100,000 contract, one pip is equal to 1000 yen, because USDJPY is quoted with only two decimals.

Trading on Margin

2009-06-10T03:30:00.001-07:00

Trading on margin means that you can buy and sell assets that represent more value than the capital in your account. Forex trading is usually done with relatively little margin since currency exchange rate fluctuations tend to be less than one or two percent on any given day. To take an example, a margin of 2.0% means you can trade up to $500,000 even though you only have $10,000 in your account. In terms of leverage this corresponds to 50:1, because 50 times $10,000 is $500,000, or put another way, $10,000 is 2.0% of $500.000. Using this much leverage gives you the possibility to make profits very quickly, but there is also a greater risk of incurring large losses and even being completely wiped out. Therefore, it is inadvisable to maximise your leveraging as the risks can be very high. For more information on the trading conditions at Saxo Bank, go to the Account Summary on your Client Station and open the section entitled "Trading Conditions" found in the top right-hand corner of the Account Summary.

A currency trade is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another one. The currency combination used in the trade is called a cross (for example, the Euro/US Dollar, or the GB Pound/Japanese Yen.). The most commonly traded currencies are the so-called "majors" - EURUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF and GBPUSD.

The most important forex market is the spot market as it has the largest volume. The market is called the spot market because trades are settled "immediately" or on the spot. In practice this means within two banking days.

Rules To Get Success In Forex Tade

2009-06-10T03:22:00.000-07:00

Being a successful Forex trader takes more then just having money, time and desire. The more you realize it, the better are your chances of making it big in this wonderful business. Throughout the years I learned many valuable lessons that today I apply to my Forex trading. Here are some of these lessons. I hope you don’t take them lightly, I guarantee you that these are true gems product of trial and error (something I hope to shorten for you!).

1.Your psychological state of mind is more important than your dollars. Yes, that is correct. For example, entering a trade when you know you should not enter it and ultimately losing money on it will cause you a financial loss which hurts but can be recovered in the next trade or two. However, it will also cause you a psychological loss in the form of future fear and insecurity. This, will take more than one or two trades to recover!

2.This one is simple but you would not believe how many traders do not follow it. In bear markets sell the markets that show most weakness. Don’t try to outsmart the market. If the market is telling you "I am weak" don’t argue and just follow! If the market tells you "I am strong", BUY and continue BUYING!

3.Don't ever try to pick absolute tops and bottoms. I know of traders that have an addiction with this. They always look to pick the absolute bottom or top and ride the market on the reversal. They succeed one or twice but eventually suffer a big hit. If you can't help it and you want to try and look for those huge turning points in the market at least use some sort of confirmation. Don't just guess "this is the top" or "this is the bottom".
