Introduction:

The FOREX (foreign exchange) market or currency market is the market where the currencies are traded abroad. It consists of a large number of agents around the world who buy and sell currencies of different nations, thus allowing the realization of any international transaction. This trade consists of a set of agents, buyers and sellers of foreign currency, who are in different locations around the world and communicate by use of the mobile phone network, internet or other media technologies.

The FOREX trade market is a mechanism that allows, an impersonal and efficient way, to purchase foreign currency. This, in turn, facilitates international trade, because it transfers purchasing power from one currency to another, so agents from a country can buy, sell and establish other business relations with the agents of other nations. So, the exchange market includes exporters, importers, domestic tourists abroad, foreign tourists in a country, investors, and so on.

Classification of the traders:

Most economists agree that the currency market can be classified as follows:

Non-financial companies (exporters, importers, etc.) or, tourists, immigrants, investors, and so on.
Multinational companies: they conduct their transactions in terms of what has been called as a vehicle currency: the US dollar.
Commercial banks: they act as intermediaries between buyers and sellers of foreign currencies.
Central Banks: they are the regulatory bodies in a country and on them depends not only the exchange rate, but also the regime or exchange rate system as a whole, i.e. pre-determining exchange rates, changing the income in dollars, keeping an eye on the national currency etc.

The main functions of FOREX trade can be summarized as follows:

It deals with the transfer of funds or buying power of a country and its respective currency against another, providing the ability to make payments denominated in currencies of other nations, which is, the price of a currency in terms of another.

It helps in the creation of a credit function in the sense that a lot of international transactions are made using credit facilities provided by the foreign exchange market. This is necessary because the goods require some time to be transferred from a country to another. That's why a series of mechanisms such as letters of credit, bills of exchange has been created.

CONCLUSIONS

The FOREX trade market is the backbone of a nation's economy as it controls the flow of funds from the international market and it also creates new avenues of international trade.

Online Forex Trading Strategy - How to Make Currency Trading Systems Work For You

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 16:56:00 +0700

Now that there are hundreds of Forex margin brokers, millions of free Forex trading tips webistes and literally hundreds of thousands of Forex day trading strategy "home based business" Forex traders, we can say that virtually anyone with an internet connection can trade Forex with the pros.

In any power trading strategy, a proven trading method will mean that through Forex strategy testing and by using trading risk management, no more than one or two per cent of a total account value is put at risk in a single trade. This is key in the path to big Forex profits. Any trader beginning out will look at the trading methodologies available to them and decide to create trading rules for their Forex trading strategy.

Forex trading (currency trading) initiates should be aware therefore not only of technical and fundamental analysis and predicting Forex prices, but also of how to be a trading strategy tester and to have strong Forex trading rules that help them to make the big Forex profits they are seeking. The alternative is to have more experienced Forex trading systems used by more experienced traders end up causing you to lose all your money in your Forex business - the harshest possible outcome.

Having the following in place could assist you in getting started right away in Forex trading (currency trading): a Forex trading software platform; a free Forex trading strategy (or a paid for one for that matter); an understanding of fundamental and technical analysis and a trading risk management system. From these elements (and also the support of a daily Forex strategy briefing from a margin broker or some other site) you can start Forex trading in the fx market with your own Forex trading strategy rules.

Learning currency trading online needs to begin with sound trading risk management and how to manage your trading account balance by making intelligent risk decisions with your trading account. The risks can be higher with Forex because the moves in a week can be equivalent to a month in stock moves. Volatility is to be expected.

Currency trading strategy rules for a Forex business can be developed by amalgamating Forex trading systems of others or simply garnering a Forex education to include: fundamental and technical analysis; trading money management (risk management); a daily Forex strategy briefing from a "third party" and a way of creating Forex forecase signals (in other words a means of predicting future Forex prices from perhaps a technical setup on a currency pair or simply from Forex strategy testing that has been carried out.

Forex strategy testing can either be done through using a practice account through your broker or by paper trading your strategy. A third option is to use software such as Forex strategy tester which can run a simulation of what could happen if you trade by your rules with some limitations on accuracy.

Free Forex trading strategy tips are available from Forex ebooks webistes all over the web. The truth is that the Forex trading fx market needs to be treated as a business that runs like a Forex trading machine as much as possible. This is key if you are to make big Forex profits in live trading. Lack of regulation means that anyone can sell a "scalping trading strategy" or so-called "foolproof trading method" and make themselves out to be an expert or even say they are a long term bank trader when they are not. There is a need for caution therefore when deciding on where to get your Forex education because not any Forex trading guide is actually going to help in your predicting Forex prices in the near, medium or long terms.

It behooves you to go out and look at what is on offer from Forex trading websites and learn more about the global currency markets after you have read this article. Some sites are listed in the resource box at the end to start you off. Trading Forex online then presents challenges. The rest of this article will address those challenges. In order to trade effectively, a Forex trading guide is needed for the initiate in to the Forex markets to be able to learn online currency trading, understand trading risk management and how to manage money, discover technical and fundamental analysis, how these types of analysis of the market differ and how to apply them in creating a Forex trading machine.

This means that after all the cogs are set in place you will have a Forex trading machine that enables you to its like a professional and make decisions based in the moment and on the facts that are presented to you, rather than guess or gambling work - although there is invariably an element of risk, your job is to eliminate the risk as much as possible in applying your trading strategy.

To make this happen, you will start to think about what you may need in order to implement your trading strategy. For example, will you be needing a daily Forex strategy briefing from either a paid service or a free provider of its strategy briefings - such as perhaps your broker or a third party service. In your technical analysis will you be utilising traditional indicators such as those involved in a bands trading strategy (Bollinger Bands), will you rely on charts created by a its platform or other currency price forecast type service or will you be professional analyst charts to make your decisions?

A proven trading method is hard to come by. There are educators who have been trading Forex for banks and other institutions for many years. However they are still going to find it incredibly difficult to pass on their years of knowledge, at least not in the time most people want to go from knowing nothing about Forex trading (currency trading) to being an expert and making money with its as a business.

In sum, it is multidimensional. There are several aspects of absolute importance. These include strategy, both in terms of trading and money management, education - both initial and ongoing and focusing in on mastering a specific area whether that be a particular currency pair or aspect within the field - such as global economics of a particular country.

Forex Options Market Overview

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 16:49:00 +0700

The forex options market started as an over-the-counter (OTC) financial vehicle for large banks, financial institutions and large international corporations to hedge against foreign currency exposure. Like the forex spot market, the forex options market is considered an "interbank" market. However, with the plethora of real-time financial data and forex option trading software available to most investors through the internet, today's forex option market now includes an increasingly large number of individuals and corporations who are speculating and/or hedging foreign currency exposure via telephone or online forex trading platforms.

Forex option trading has emerged as an alternative investment vehicle for many traders and investors. As an investment tool, forex option trading provides both large and small investors with greater flexibility when determining the appropriate forex trading and hedging strategies to implement.

Most forex options trading is conducted via telephone as there are only a few forex brokers offering online forex option trading platforms.

Forex Option Defined - A forex option is a financial currency contract giving the forex option buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase or sell a specific forex spot contract (the underlying) at a specific price (the strike price) on or before a specific date (the expiration date). The amount the forex option buyer pays to the forex option seller for the forex option contract rights is called the forex option "premium."

The Forex Option Buyer - The buyer, or holder, of a foreign currency option has the choice to either sell the foreign currency option contract prior to expiration, or he or she can choose to hold the foreign currency options contract until expiration and exercise his or her right to take a position in the underlying spot foreign currency. The act of exercising the foreign currency option and taking the subsequent underlying position in the foreign currency spot market is known as "assignment" or being "assigned" a spot position.

The only initial financial obligation of the foreign currency option buyer is to pay the premium to the seller up front when the foreign currency option is initially purchased. Once the premium is paid, the foreign currency option holder has no other financial obligation (no margin is required) until the foreign currency option is either offset or expires.

On the expiration date, the call buyer can exercise his or her right to buy the underlying foreign currency spot position at the foreign currency option's strike price, and a put holder can exercise his or her right to sell the underlying foreign currency spot position at the foreign currency option's strike price. Most foreign currency options are not exercised by the buyer, but instead are offset in the market before expiration.

Foreign currency options expires worthless if, at the time the foreign currency option expires, the strike price is "out-of-the-money." In simplest terms, a foreign currency option is "out-of-the-money" if the underlying foreign currency spot price is lower than a foreign currency call option's strike price, or the underlying foreign currency spot price is higher than a put option's strike price. Once a foreign currency option has expired worthless, the foreign currency option contract itself expires and neither the buyer nor the seller have any further obligation to the other party.

The Forex Option Seller - The foreign currency option seller may also be called the "writer" or "grantor" of a foreign currency option contract. The seller of a foreign currency option is contractually obligated to take the opposite underlying foreign currency spot position if the buyer exercises his right. In return for the premium paid by the buyer, the seller assumes the risk of taking a possible adverse position at a later point in time in the foreign currency spot market.

Initially, the foreign currency option seller collects the premium paid by the foreign currency option buyer (the buyer's funds will immediately be transferred into the seller's foreign currency trading account). The foreign currency option seller must have the funds in his or her account to cover the initial margin requirement. If the markets move in a favorable direction for the seller, the seller will not have to post any more funds for his foreign currency options other than the initial margin requirement. However, if the markets move in an unfavorable direction for the foreign currency options seller, the seller may have to post additional funds to his or her foreign currency trading account to keep the balance in the foreign currency trading account above the maintenance margin requirement.

Just like the buyer, the foreign currency option seller has the choice to either offset (buy back) the foreign currency option contract in the options market prior to expiration, or the seller can choose to hold the foreign currency option contract until expiration. If the foreign currency options seller holds the contract until expiration, one of two scenarios will occur: (1) the seller will take the opposite underlying foreign currency spot position if the buyer exercises the option or (2) the seller will simply let the foreign currency option expire worthless (keeping the entire premium) if the strike price is out-of-the-money.

Please note that "puts" and "calls" are separate foreign currency options contracts and are NOT the opposite side of the same transaction. For every put buyer there is a put seller, and for every call buyer there is a call seller. The foreign currency options buyer pays a premium to the foreign currency options seller in every option transaction.

Forex Call Option - A foreign exchange call option gives the foreign exchange options buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a specific foreign exchange spot contract (the underlying) at a specific price (the strike price) on or before a specific date (the expiration date). The amount the foreign exchange option buyer pays to the foreign exchange option seller for the foreign exchange option contract rights is called the option "premium."

Please note that "puts" and "calls" are separate foreign exchange options contracts and are NOT the opposite side of the same transaction. For every foreign exchange put buyer there is a foreign exchange put seller, and for every foreign exchange call buyer there is a foreign exchange call seller. The foreign exchange options buyer pays a premium to the foreign exchange options seller in every option transaction.

The Forex Put Option - A foreign exchange put option gives the foreign exchange options buyer the right, but not the obligation, to sell a specific foreign exchange spot contract (the underlying) at a specific price (the strike price) on or before a specific date (the expiration date). The amount the foreign exchange option buyer pays to the foreign exchange option seller for the foreign exchange option contract rights is called the option "premium."

Plain Vanilla Forex Options - Plain vanilla options generally refer to standard put and call option contracts traded through an exchange (however, in the case of forex option trading, plain vanilla options would refer to the standard, generic forex option contracts that are traded through an over-the-counter (OTC) forex options dealer or clearinghouse). In simplest terms, vanilla forex options would be defined as the buying or selling of a standard forex call option contract or a forex put option contract.

Exotic Forex Options - To understand what makes an exotic forex option "exotic," you must first understand what makes a forex option "non-vanilla." Plain vanilla forex options have a definitive expiration structure, payout structure and payout amount. Exotic forex option contracts may have a change in one or all of the above features of a vanilla forex option. It is important to note that exotic options, since they are often tailored to a specific's investor's needs by an exotic forex options broker, are generally not very liquid, if at all.

Intrinsic & Extrinsic Value - The price of an FX option is calculated into two separate parts, the intrinsic value and the extrinsic (time) value.

The intrinsic value of an FX option is defined as the difference between the strike price and the underlying FX spot contract rate (American Style Options) or the FX forward rate (European Style Options). The intrinsic value represents the actual value of the FX option if exercised. Please note that the intrinsic value must be zero (0) or above - if an FX option has no intrinsic value, then the FX option is simply referred to as having no (or zero) intrinsic value (the intrinsic value is never represented as a negative number). An FX option with no intrinsic value is considered "out-of-the-money," an FX option having intrinsic value is considered "in-the-money," and an FX option with a strike price at, or very close to, the underlying FX spot rate is considered "at-the-money."

The extrinsic value of an FX option is commonly referred to as the "time" value and is defined as the value of an FX option beyond the intrinsic value. A number of factors contribute to the calculation of the extrinsic value including, but not limited to, the volatility of the two spot currencies involved, the time left until expiration, the riskless interest rate of both currencies, the spot price of both currencies and the strike price of the FX option. It is important to note that the extrinsic value of FX options erodes as its expiration nears. An FX option with 60 days left to expiration will be worth more than the same FX option that has only 30 days left to expiration. Because there is more time for the underlying FX spot price to possibly move in a favorable direction, FX options sellers demand (and FX options buyers are willing to pay) a larger premium for the extra amount of time.

Volatility - Volatility is considered the most important factor when pricing forex options and it measures movements in the price of the underlying. High volatility increases the probability that the forex option could expire in-the-money and increases the risk to the forex option seller who, in turn, can demand a larger premium. An increase in volatility causes an increase in the price of both call and put options.

Delta - The delta of a forex option is defined as the change in price of a forex option relative to a change in the underlying forex spot rate. A change in a forex option's delta can be influenced by a change in the underlying forex spot rate, a change in volatility, a change in the riskless interest rate of the underlying spot currencies or simply by the passage of time (nearing of the expiration date).

The delta must always be calculated in a range of zero to one (0-1.0). Generally, the delta of a deep out-of-the-money forex option will be closer to zero, the delta of an at-the-money forex option will be near .5 (the probability of exercise is near 50%) and the delta of deep in-the-money forex options will be closer to 1.0. In simplest terms, the closer a forex option's strike price is relative to the underlying spot forex rate, the higher the delta because it is more sensitive to a change in the underlying rate.

Learning to Trade Forex in Seven Steps

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 02:06:00 +0700

If you are interested in learning to trade forex successfully, then the most common path for an aspiring trader these days is to search the Internet for information to apply immediately to their live forex trading account. The problem is that their search often leads them to destinations where there are plenty of false promises, bad ideas, negativity and an obsession with indicators. Many of the EBooks on sale today are filled with recycled concepts or incomplete strategies which the authors themselves do not use. Many authors do not earn money from forex trading but they earn their living by selling these EBooks to the novice forex trader.

This easy access to forex guru's who fuel the idea that forex trading is the holy grail of easy money, then financially feed off those same people they have sold this idea to. At the end of the day what many of these forex guru's sell is a gross misrepresentation of what it takes to trade forex for a living.

Forex Trading is not easy. You can become a good forex trader though dedication and by treating forex trading as you would any other skill. The reality is that it is hard work and must be treated with the same amount of seriousness as you would any other career.

The effect of all these gurus is that many forex traders start off overly optimistic with unrealistic goals. Whilst there is nothing wrong with a positive mental attitude but this positivity must be built on strong foundations and realistic expectations.

New forex traders normally start their career by purchasing some secret set of indicators and they are quickly punished for their naivety. Many of these forex traders then purchase a different set of secret indicators until they become disillusioned and then quit trading.

In fact, many forex traders that are now successful went through this learning process, including myself. This is only a problem if you refuse to learn from your mistakes. You need to break from this cycle of reliance on secret indicators and guru methods to be successful.

You help yourself in the beginning; by learning to think for yourself and understanding that whilst anyone can trade forex, to be successful, you must learn to BE a forex trader.
To BE A Forex Trader

To trade forex is easy, all you need is a forex trading account with money in it and then you enter the foreign exchange market and start trading.

To be a forex trader is more work. You need to grow from the starting point of having very little knowledge to the stage where you have a trading plan, understand the concepts and behaviour of the forex market and be able to trade with a cool head and understand that wins and losses are all part of being a Forex Trader.

Learning How to Trade Forex by thinking like a Forex Trader in Seven Steps.

1. Understand your place in the Forex Market

This is very important you must understand that you are very small fish in a big ocean.

In the Foreign Exchange Market the majority of the liquidity is coming from big banks and experienced institutional traders. These are the big fish. The big fish will happily enjoy you as a little snack.

You are only fooling yourself if you think it will be easy to take money off these big forex traders.

You have to learn to swim alongside these big fish and catch the same currents they do. Swimming against them just marks you as prey and sooner or later you will be eaten.

2. Learn to read the Forex Charts and Understand the Foreign Exchange Market.

Many novice forex traders believe that these big forex traders have access to some secret forex trading strategy or use a secret set of indicators, but the truth is this is just not the case.

These major forex players are using simple, but proven technical analysis techniques - most commonly horizontal support/resistance, identification of trading ranges, Fibonacci these are then coupled with fundamental themes.

Begin by accepting that the other major participants are highly experienced in the market and they make money because of experience and by a complete understanding of the core skills and not because they hold a holy grail of secret indicators.

3. Money Management

It is crucial that you understand as a novice forex trader the emphasis is not on how much you can make from forex trading but on how you manage what you have.

This is the most common downfall of all novice traders. It is common place to see a starting trader risk the majority of their account on one or two positions.

This style of trading is not sustainable and professional traders do not trade in this manner. Everyone sometime in their career will have a string of bad trades. A typical number might be 10 losing trades in a row. The question is do you have a money management plan in place that enables you to survive this?

4. Focus on the Market

Many novice forex traders open their forex charting software and activate their latest hot indicator or tool and proceed to place their trades as per the tools recommendations. This style of forex trading is unlikely to have much long term success.

When these indicators fail to generate the required profits then these traders then move rapidly on to another set of indicators.

You must focus on the forex market and understand what the indicators are telling you so that you can pick the forex trades which have the best probability of being winners.

Successful forex traders use indicators and tools as Fibonacci, Pivot points, price channels, MACD, RSI etc. These tools by themselves do not make a successful trader. There are many successful traders and unsuccessful traders who use the exact same indicators.

The key is that successful traders understands how the market behaves around the indicators and understands what the signals actually mean.

The best way to achieve this is to stop swapping between tools and select those that compliment your trading plan, understand how they work, and then spend time in the market experiencing them.
5. Plan your trade and trade your plan.

This is a common saying that seems to get lost on novice traders. It should be every trader's goal to make pips on each forex trade as per their trading plan. Forex Traders must treat each trade as a business decision by calculating their risk and defining their entries and exits points, those that do not open themselves to big losses when a trade goes bad.

Many novice traders seem to lack the discipline to follow a plan for each trade. So what happens is typically the following; a novice trader will see a potential set-up, they decide on some arbitrary sum to buy or sell with a quick guesstimate, then place the trade without analyzing any risk and having an exit strategy.

Of course this way of trading can be profitable over the short term, more down to luck than skill. But eventually the luck runs out and the trader is caught napping and a common result is a wiped out account.

The first question novice traders tend to ask themselves how much will I make on this forex trade?
The first question experience traders tend to ask themselves is how much is my potential loss / risk?
6. Your mind is your strongest asset and weakest link.

Entire books have been dedicated to the subject of psychology and its role in trading. That doesn't mean they are all going to help you, but you should take this as a sign that the subject is not to be ignored.

First you must understand the role psychology plays in trading. You must learn to understand your personality traits and how they might affect your trading style.

A trader I know is a bad loser and when he has a bad trade, he had a habit of going straight back and trying to win those pips back with even worse results. But he understands this as a weakness and when he has a bad trade, he takes a break of 20 minutes before he goes back to trading so that his emotions do not affect his trading decisions.

Second you must make it your aim to never stop learning. You cannot get yourself to a certain level and then become complacent. Every day is a learning experience in some way or other and you must be prepared to learn lessons and invest time in improving your skills and experience. The day you stop learning is the day you should stop trading.

7. Understand The Forex Market is always right or Expect the Unexpected.

The forex market is an interesting place, but there is one thing every trader needs to learn. Always expect the unexpected and do not get wrapped up in past successes. No matter what your charts or indicators tell you; sometimes the forex market will just do the opposite.

Whatever happens in the market you must maintain an objective outlook on your strategy and the forex market and ensure that bubbles and crashes do not derail you in the long term.
By following these steps and learning to become a forex trader rather than just trading the forex market, you will put you on the path to ultimate success as a profitable forex trader. This is something that 90% of all novice traders fail to achieve.

The Secrets Of Online Forex Trading

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 01:58:00 +0700

I am here to share some knowledge, tips, strategies and insights of how to successfully buy, sell, trade and invest in online Forex trading. FOREX or Foreign Exchange is the largest as well as the most liquid trading market in the world and there are many people involved in FOREX trading all over the world. A lot of people claim that the FOREX is the best home business that could be pursued by any person. With each day, more and more are turning to FOREX traders, via electronic means of computer and internet connectivity.

This means that foreign exchange is not delivered to a person who actually buys like stock trading, FOREX trading also has day traders that purchase and sell foreign exchange same day. Thus, FOREX is not a get-rich-quick scheme as many people thought which complicates the real concept of online Forex trading.

Unlike stocks and futures that trade through exchanges, Forex trading is done through market makers that include major banks as well as small to large brokerage firms located around the world who collectively make a market on 24 hours - 5 days basis. The Forex market is always "open" and is the largest financial network in the world (daily average turnover of trillions of dollars).

Forex trading involves trading currency pairs such as the EUR/USD pair (Eurodollar/US dollar pair) where a buyer of this pair would actually be buying the Eurodollar and simultaneously selling short the US dollar.

Here's the deal: Just like any other market, most "traders" are losing when trading Forex. And the reasons for their failure are mainly because some lack good trading methods, sound money and risk management principles and indiscipline trading attitude. In most cases, it could be wrong mindset and motive towards the market. Some don't even understand the trend of the market, of which the trend plays a vital role in the life of any trader, as it is simply says that "the trend is your friend".

Moreover, many have been mislead by dishonest individuals or questionable brokers promising outwardly overnight riches and hidden policies. Forex is still a little like the "wild west", so there's naturally a lot of confusion and misinformation out there but I'm here to cover many tactics and strategies used by successful Forex traders all over the world. Unfortunately, only few Forex traders are actually aware of this information.

Forex trading is all about regulation, willpower and determination. Leveraging your strength could be extravagant by organizing the appropriate Forex trading strategy. You may find hundreds and thousands of Forex trading strategies out there. All Forex trading strategies use a variety of indicators and combinations. These indicators and studies are just calculating support and resistance and trend in the Forex trading market.

What you are about to read is more valuable to you than what you will find in many trading courses or seminars that you'd have to pay for. Anyway, I don't believe in sugarcoating anything or giving you false hopes of success. There are enough swindlers doing that already. I want to give you the facts, like 'em or not, so you're empowered to take action and make positive decisions on how to succeed in the Forex markets.

There's nothing magical about the Forex markets, because all markets are ultimately driven by human psychology - fear and greed - and supply and demand. Sure, every market has its own peculiarities, but if you understand how the basic drivers of human emotions work, you can potentially succeed big in Forex market, because the market controls 95% of live trader's emotions. Some traders think it's a "get rich quick" trading the popular Forex markets.

There are many advantages of Forex trading over other types of financial instrument trading like bonds, stocks, commodities etc. But it does not mean that there are no risks involved in the Forex trading. Of course there are risks associated with Forex trading. Therefore, someone needs to understand all the terms related to Foreign Exchange carefully. There are many online sources as well as offline sources that provide hints on trading of Forex. These hints are basically the SECRETS.

As I said above, the foreign exchange trading is considered as one of the most profitable and attractive opportunities for investment as any person can easily do at home or office and from any part of the world. For succeeding the Forex trading, a person is not required to do any online promotion, marketing etc. The only requirement in the Forex trading is the account that a person is required to open with reliable and registered brokers, a computer system and fast internet connection.

Now, you have to be careful when opening a Forex account with any broker because some could be SCAM. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in US has jurisdiction over all Futures and Forex activity. When trading in the foreign exchange markets, individuals should only trade with a CFTC registered entity that is also a member of the National Futures Association (NFA) and is regulated by the CFTC. For non-US broker/ bank entities, be sure that the broker or bank is registered with that country's appropriate regulatory bodies.

The Forex account could be opened with any amount between $300 (mini) and $2000 (standard). After opening the account, a person is required to learn how the Forex market works, demo trade and after a while go live trading. Moreover, there are some secrets that have to be followed.

A person can also apply all the secrets when demo trading and can see if the secrets really work. It could be said without any doubt that if someone can apply all the secrets in right way, he/she can easily gain good money by way of Forex trading.

All successful traders have Forex trading strategies that they follow to make profitable trades. These Forex trading strategies are generally based on a strategy that allows them to find good trades. And the strategy is based on some form of market analysis. Successful traders need some ways to interpret and even predict the movements of the market.

There are two basic approaches to analyzing the movements of the Forex market. These are Technical Analysis and Fundamental Analysis. However, technical analysis is much more likely to be used by traders. Still, it's good to have an understanding of both types of analysis, so that you can decide which type would work best for your Forex trading strategies.

There has been misconception about the Forex market because there are different types of traders and advert out there full of exaggerations that makes the business unreal to so many people and that is why I am here to show you the SECRETS in Forex Trading.

What is traded on the Forex market? The answer is money. Forex trading is where the currency of one nation is traded for that of another. Therefore, Forex trading is always traded in pairs and the most commonly traded currency pairs are traded against the US Dollar (USD). They are called 'the Majors'. The major currency pairs are the Euro Dollar (EUR/USD); the British Pound (GBP/USD); the Japanese Yen (USD/JPY); and the Swiss Franc (USD/CHF). The notable 'commodity' currency pairs that traded are the Canadian Dollar (USD/CAD) and the Australian Dollar AUD/USD. Because there is no central exchange for the Forex market, these pairs and their crosses are traded over the telephone and online through a global network of banks, multinational corporations, importers and exporters, brokers and currency traders. But if you really want to make it big in the Forex market, I will strongly advise that as a "beginner" in the business. Kindly get acquainted with one or two major currency pairs. Study them very well and make sure you understand their volatility period.

And to further simplify Forex trading, you could easily limit your trading to the two most liquid and widely traded pairs, the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD. This really starts to reduce demands on your time for trading activities without giving up good profit potential.

Traditionally, currency trading has been a 'professionals only' market available exclusively to banks and large institutions, however, because of the invention of the new E-economy, online Forex trading firms are now able to offer trading accounts to 'retail' traders like you and I. Now almost anyone with a computer and an Internet connection can trade currencies just like the world's largest banks do.

Forex Mentor: Reputation Matters

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Fri, 9 Sep 2011 15:43:00 +0700

We all know that before we can trade forex and become profitable we should do the necessary steps such as acquiring the knowledge, practice/gain experience and then build the account afterward. The good news is you can have all three of them in one place thanks to competition. What are you talking about? I'm talking about forex tutorial/course. These days, you can learn forex trading from the pros and get trading advice (sometimes trading signal too). However, we have to know that there are levels of forex mentor so you can't just pick a forex trading mentor just because they offer great things for one price. The rule of thumb is if it's too good to be true then maybe it is.

The forex market is undoubtedly the biggest marketplace on earth. I mean, where on earth can you find a market that has 4.1 trillion dollar turnover on a daily basis? Also, the crazy thing about this market is it's open around the clock from Monday to Friday. Do you understand what those things mean? It simply means there are numerous people doing transaction at any given time during the earth's rotation. As a result, you can see people from different background making money (and losing money). The bad news is there are a lot of people claiming to be a pro and trying to sell you their knowledge/service and this makes finding a real pro much more difficult. Separating a real professional trader from the regular profitable traders takes time, a lot of time. This is especially true because we don't actually see those traders in person unless we live nearby the residence of the trader because we can then verify his whether his reputation is real or fake.

Is there a way to find a great forex trader with great reputation? Of course there is. One of the ways to quickly identify a great trader is through his credibility. If you want to evaluate a trader's credibility you should start with trying to find out whether the trader have worked in some big companies or not. If the trader has worked in a hedge fund or other financial company it means the trader already have a name in this industry and of course many people have entrusted their money to this trader in the past. Televised appearance is another way of knowing whether the trader have a great reputation is good or not. You might think having appeared in television does not guarantee that the trader is good or not. That way of thinking is valid but you will most likely find the answer yourself. Will you go with a profitable trader with great reputation or with a regular profitable trader? You should also remember that if you stick with great people you have a chance to become great too and that's the rule in life. Moreover, if the trader is acknowledged by other big names in the industry you know that you are dealing with world-class mentor. The success rate of his students is also another way to know for sure whether the mentor is great or not. You know the rule, great teacher produces great student.

Getting a great trader as your mentor is crucial in your forex trading success because things are usually much easier to do when you do it the right way from the very beginning. If you get yourself an average profitable trader you might end up average or even less but if you stick with great mentor you have a chance to also end up great or at least better than average. In the business world you will get what you pay for. If you are only willing to pay for less money you will get yourself a one bed hotel room but if you are willing to pay for top dollar you will get a VIP room and enjoy all the benefits that the other rooms don't offer.

Forex Exit Strategies - Keep Your Profit

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Thu, 8 Sep 2011 03:54:00 +0700

Making money through investing seems as if it should be simple. FX exit strategies should be taken into account when you want to realize your profits. When the investing vehicle that you have purchased goes up in price you sell it and take a profit. However, this is not as easy as it sounds. There are many things that can go wrong in trying to capture the paper gains on paper physically. Even those that have experience investing know that they must take precautions or they can be subjected to a high amount of unnecessary risk.

If you do not know the current value of your portfolio how will you be able to know when to sell? It is vital that you know the current price points for your Forex investments. There are always swings and price fluctuations. You need to know this to be able to monitor it.

A stop loss is what you will use to place a command to sell your investment when it reaches a certain price point. You can decide what that will be. You will want to pick a figure that is low enough that it does not sell with the smallest adjustment, but large enough that you can still profit. It protects you in case you are not able to manually perform the actions yourself.

Another reason why people often lose money is that they become greedy. While you can expect your Forex trading investments to increase, they will not continue on that trend forever. You should not wait until the last minute to sell. Do not wait for the price to reach a certain number before you decide to sell. This can be an error to do so. There is no way to determine how Forex will move.

One method to removing your risk of loss is to sell some of your portfolio once you have a profit in your account. This allows you to recoup your original investment and ensures that what is left is pure profit. It gives insurance that you can continue to invest in other plays that you see.

The amount of money that you have invested can also play a role in how quickly you can divest yourself. The larger the amount the longer it will take to sell. This needs to be planned out how you will you're your profits. You can sell in increments on upticks to get gains. It may not be possible to sell at one time with a large portfolio.

Do not sell your Forex investment too soon or you might not see any gains. You can use past historical data to see how the currency moves. You can even chart it out to get a visual image to help you make a better decision to time your sale.

Planning in advance, monitoring the price, and adjusting your stop loss position will help you to remove the risk that many make. FX exit strategies do not have to be difficult if you understand the fundamental principles of taking a profit. Make sure that you read all methods prior to investing.

Forex Trading - Making Profits With Automated Forex Trading

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Sun, 4 Sep 2011 18:04:00 +0700

Is there really such as thing as automated forex trading? Not that I know of. I have been trading forex on demo platforms for the past 7 years. It was only during the last year and a half that I started trading live. During my learning years I ruthlessly destroyed hundreds of demo forex accounts from almost every forex broker on the Internet.

I know the blood and gore that the forex markets are filled with. I know what helps brokers make money and why most forex traders lose money. I didn't learn all that from the forums. However, I did learn not to trust everything one reads in the forums. People who are really making money won't spend time at the forums; they spend it making money on a 24/5 forex market.

A few people who praise their broker on the forums may either be employed by the broker to do so, or they may be one of the lucky traders to have made a bit of a fortune by sheer luck and cannot hold back their glee, therefore, they come out in praise of a broker now and then. Sure, I've been there.

Coming back to the topic of automated trading, there's no such thing. The markets work on emotions driven by news - and a few new traders out to commit forex "hara kiri." Guys like me love guys like these because what they lose, we gain.

Now, consider this logical fact about automated trading software: Why would someone want to sell a software that professes to make millions overnight on autopilot? Give it a thought. If I found something like that, I'd be using it, not selling it.

There is just one way to make money automatically, I feel. That is to outsource your trading to the experts.
People who have spent years following the currency markets can tell just when and how the markets are going to turn. They're called Account Managers and they make you a whole lot of money with minimum risk.

Cost of hiring services and Tips on choosing a money manager
Hiring money management services typically cost up to 20% of your gains from each trade and no hidden costs. Now, this segment is not free from its share of scam runners, either. So, if you come up against a manager who is showing you a whole load of charts where he marked entry and exits and became a millionaire overnight, drop him like a hot brick.

A good manager will offer you a week's long demonstration on a demo account you open and he trades, while you can check the results every day. No doctoring charts or results! What more proof do you need?

Money managers can make money because they use their clients combined accounts to avoid margin calls.
Don't get me wrong. Money managers don't risk more than 0.5% of the total capital and if they have a combined account amounting to a few million, it is easy for them to make consistent winning trades.There is one manager who delivers a consistent 5% per week in profits after deducting broker commission and his commission.

So, without having to trade personally, and without handing over the keys to the bank to a manager, one can sit back and make money from the forex market.

Now that's automated trading for you!

Basics of Forex Trading

s.bimantoro.p@gmail.com (Setio Bimantoro P) — Fri, 2 Sep 2011 19:07:00 +0700

What is the forex? If you are new to the investment market, you may have wondering this very question. After all, investment professionals and business people around the world talk about forex trading. So, it makes sense that you are curious about this sector of the investment world.

Forex-also called FX-is simply a combination of the first syllables in the words 'foreign' and 'exchange.' These two words are important to the meaning of the term as well, because the forex is an electronic foreign exchange system.

Trading through forex does not involve actual commodities or goods; instead, it involves the currency of various countries. In other words, when you trade via forex, you are trading the value of one currency-perhaps the United States Dollar-versus the value of a second currency-for example, the Japanese Yen.

Any currency can be traded on the foreign exchange, yet traders and investment advisors often have their preferences. These often include the four pairs of currencies that are considered the major pairs: the Euro/Dollar (EUR/USD), the Pound/Dollar (GBP/USD), the Dollar/Yen (USD/JPY), and the Dollar/Franc (USD/CHF). Many FX traders prefer to stick to trading these major pairs for simplicity; others choose to watch the market carefully and trade currency pairs based upon market standings.

Trading specialists buy in the demand zone and sell in supply zone, and the Euro/Yen has very typical supply and demand tendencies. The forex market is open all day and night, five days per week. This near-continuous operation allows traders from all over the world to participate in the market with no regard to time zones. The market is closed on weekends.

Every day that the forex market is open, incredible numbers of trades are completed. The FX market is actually over 30 times as large as any other financial market. The huge volume of trades and the availability of trading within many different companies make the foreign exchange market quite attractive to investors.

Forex is fun to trade because it is open 24 hours a day, five and a half days a week. It also has the most liquidity out of any market.

The forex market provides unique opportunities to traders, ones that are not available from other trading tools. For example, there is no slippage on Stop orders during regular trading hours. This-and other benefits of forex trading-can be quite advantageous to investors.

Trading on the foreign exchange can be completed through investment advisors. But most experts agree that the best way to get involved in forex trading is to use an online forex trading platform for your investing. Online trading systems can provide you with trading alerts and tutorials to help you get started in the world of currency trading.
