It’s no secret that I couldn’t possibly market my Forex products on my own, and I partner with a fantastic marketing and advertising firm that takes care of everything, including when I get a wild idea to do a members’ survey. I can’t share all the results with you, but over the next week, I’ll be updating you with some of the results and pertinent information we learned about traders and trading from them. Have a look at this: Of the traders we surveyed (and there were a lot!) over 50% trade every day, with another 44.57% trading a few times a week. That’s both fantastic and potentially really, really […]

“Trading is the best profession in the entire world.” I really believe that, at least for me, and if you’re reading this you probably think it might be a great one for you too. When you do it right, it’s profitable, consistent, and most importantly for me, flexible. To be able to design the life I want instead of carving a small existence out on the edges of a J-O-B, means everything to me and to my family. Here’s the thing that nobody believes, though. Trading is not rocket science! Once you learn the basics, it’s actually pretty simple and a whole lot of fun! It’s true that you have […]

As a Forex trader, you are the one that will ultimately be pulling the trigger. That sounds like a given, but when it comes down to it, the decision to place a trade is yours. That being said, the responsibility also becomes yours. You become responsible for the losing trades, and of course, for the winning trades. Once you choose to execute that trade, there are no gurus, no TV new channels, no signal services, no husbands or wives, and no trading systems that can take responsibility. That now lies in your hands. This shift of responsibility makes you a more calculating trader, and in doing so will make you […]

As a Forex trader, you have all important trading system and the more important money management system. There is one more system that you have to have in place to be truly successful, and that would be your belief system. Trading Forex is one of those ventures that can bring you a better than average income. For some people it can be millions of dollars, for some even more. You are getting into Forex trading usually to be one of the successful traders and make millions, not to just get by. Granted there are several traders who only want to pay the bills, but most are looking to participate in […]

Often, the time it takes to become a hugely successful trader seems like it’s too much. Learning to trade and applying what you learn to generating a respectable monthly return will only take you 5 years, maybe less. The first few years are very slow and can be quite frustrating. This will pass as you become more proficient and more consistent. Too many new traders-to-be want to become hugely successful as Forex traders, but they do a lot of the wrong things. Too much time is wasted on futile endeavors, too much money is lost in live accounts that are being traded prematurely. These are normal to do in the […]

Trading the Forex markets takes a very strict set of disciplines in order to be successful. These disciplines can be learned over time, as they need to be if you plan on trading over the long haul. These lessons that Forex offers can be implemented in your day to day life and make you a better person overall. Here is a list of some of the things I learned in Forex. 1. Patience is a virtue. Trading the markets is a patient person’s game. Patience is so important when dealing with people, learning new things, and virtually anything that life throws your way. You will have that stick-to-it-ive-ness that gets […]
