How Moving Averages Can Help You “Be The Lion” When You Trade

How Moving Averages Can Help You “Be The Lion” When You Trade

If you think Moving Averages (MAs) are boring, you may be using them wrong. To make really profitable trades we have to trade with the momentum of the trend and the best way to see the trend is to watch your MAs. You can calculate an MA on your own, but after you’ve done it once or twice, why would you want to? They aren’t complicated, but how much time do you have to spend calculating averages? To calculate a simple MA, you go back over, say, the last 50 days of closing prices for a currency pair, add them all together, and divide them by the number of sessions/periods […]

Forex Yin and Yang

Forex Yin and Yang

I’ve said it before and it bears repeating… “With everything good in Forex comes something bad.” I swear I’m going to put it on a poster someday. It’s true in life too, but Forex makes it really apparent. But like in life, knowing how to guard against the bad (risk) to smooth out the good (gains) in a consistent upward motion, is what progress is all about. The Trend Is Your Friend So, we talk a lot, and I mean A LOT, about the “trend” in Forex. Why? Because Forex is about statistics and probability. Seeing the trend, verifying the trend, and understanding what pullbacks (small reversals in direction) mean […]

30% a Month Returns

30% a Month Returns

Are 30% a month returns really “doable” in Forex? This is a question I get a lot, especially in light of the fact that a standard S&P 500 “traditional” investment yields around 7% annually. A picture is worth a thousand words, right? So, here’s my answer to that question, that I recorded a few months ago for some of my students.    

You are the one pulling the trigger

You are the one pulling the trigger

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 […]

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 […]

Where will you be in 5 years?

Where will you be in 5 years?

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 […]

Things I learned from Forex

Things I learned from Forex

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.

You will have that stick-to-it-ive-ness that gets […]
