The report was presented by Patricia Mosser, senior vice president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Federal Open Market Committee’s acting manager for the System Open Market Account, on behalf of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve System.

Currency Trading and Forex Tips

2009-05-24T22:28:00.000-07:00

Know the Language

In Currency Trading, traders often use technical language that can be intimidating when you're just starting out. When you see a word you don't understand, you should refer to the Commonly Used Forex Terms. As you familiarize yourself with the language, you'll find that your understanding of Forex concepts as a whole will improve.

Technical Analysis

To develop a strategy, traders use a variety of tools and techniques. Some traders perform Technical Analysis by using Currency Charts to study the market. This technique assumes that past market movements will help predict future activity. The effectiveness of Technical Analysis makes it a very popular trading technique.

Fundamental Analysis

Other traders use Fundamental Analysis for their trading strategy. They follow the effect of economic, social and political events on currency prices. Reading specialized Forex News can help keep you in touch with the Forex community to find out how events might affect currency prices.

Practice makes perfect!

Every trader makes mistakes, so it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with a trading environment before you invest your money. To improve your trading skills, try opening a free demo trading account with a Forex company. FXCM, for example, has professional traders on-hand 24 hours a day to answer any of your questions – even during your free trial, so make the most of it! They even have an online FX Powercourse that costs less then 20 dollars; but don't let the price fool you.

Know the Risks

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for everyone. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. Remember, you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment, which means that you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. If you have any doubts, it is advisable to seek advice from an independent financial advisor.

What is Forex (Foreign Exchange)?

2009-05-23T06:28:00.000-07:00

The vast currency market is a foreign concept to the average individual. However, once it is broken down into simple terms, the average individual can begin to understand the foreign exchange market and use it as a financial instrument for future investing.

Forex was created not by design, but because traders, brokers, bankers, importers, exporters and investors recognized opportunities it brings. In 1971, the U.S. went off the "gold standard", in which its foreign-exchange rate was pegged to the price of gold. At that moment, new trading opportunities appeared on the horizon.

Forex is the one stabilizing factor in the world's system of monetary exchange, yet it is not answerable to any extrinsic stabilizing influence. There are "no restrictions" in this market. No single international authority acts as a governing body, and no government can intervene unilaterally to regulate foreign exchange practices or, should there be a threat of world monetary crisis, halt trading. While treasury officials in Washington, London, Bonn, Tokyo and other capitals pay close attention to relative currency values, none can intervene in a regulatory capacity. The market exists only to the extent those traders in Asia (Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore), Europe (Frankfurt, London, Paris and Geneva), Bahrain, and the U.S. (New York), New Zealand and Australia (Sydney) are willing to buy and sell.

Foreign Exchange is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. The foreign exchange market (FOREX) is the largest financial market in the world, with a volume of over $1.5 trillion daily. Unlike other financial markets, the Forex market has no physical location, no central exchange. It operates through an electronic network of banks, corporations and individuals trading one currency for another. The lack of a physical exchange enables the Forex market to operate on a 24-hour basis, spanning from one zone to another in all the major financial centers.

Today, importers and exporters, international portfolio managers, multinational corporations, speculators, day traders, long-term holders and hedge funds all use the Forex market to pay for goods and services, transact in financial assets or to reduce the risk of currency movements by hedging their exposure in other markets.

Forex Basics

2009-05-23T06:24:00.002-07:00

What's Forex?

"Forex" stands for foreign exchange; it's also known as FX. In a forex trade, you buy one currency while simultaneously selling another - that is, you're exchanging the sold currency for the one you're buying. The foreign exchange market is an over-the-counter market.

Currencies trade in pairs, like the Euro-US Dollar (EUR/USD) or US Dollar / Japanese Yen (USD/JPY). Unlike stocks or futures, there's no centralized exchange for forex. All transactions happen via phone or electronic network.

Who trades currencies, and why?

Daily turnover in the world's currencies comes from two sources:

Foreign trade (5%). Companies buy and sell products in foreign countries, plus convert profits from foreign sales into domestic currency.
Speculation for profit (95%).

Most traders focus on the biggest, most liquid currency pairs. "The Majors" include US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar. In fact, more than 85% of daily forex trading happens in the major currency pairs.

The world's most traded market, trading 24 hours a day

With average daily turnover of US$3.2 trillion, forex is the most traded market in the world.
A true 24-hour market from Sunday 5 PM ET to Friday 5 PM ET, forex trading begins in Sydney, and moves around the globe as the business day begins, first to Tokyo, London, and New York.

Unlike other financial markets, investors can respond immediately to currency fluctuations, whenever they occur - day or night.

Money withdrawal

2009-05-23T06:05:00.000-07:00

For the comfort of our clients, requests for money withdrawal can be made straight from the trade terminal. Withdrawal is made according to the specifications that were entered during opening of trade account and is performed in the following way:

1. Open the “Withdrawal Requests” window through the “View” point of main menu – click on “Withdrawals”, then right click on the space within this window and select “New request”. The next window will be opened:

2. Select account type where the withdrawal will be performed, for example Bank Account.

3. In the “Payment props” window your bank props will be shown. Make sure this information is correct.

4. Enter the sum you want to withdraw. Notice that this sum cannot exceed the sum of “Free Margin”. Then press the “Ok” button.

5. If everything is correct, then your request for withdrawal will be sent to processing and shown as active in “Withdrawal Requests” window.

During this process the amount of withdrawal will be frozen on the account and discounted from balance.

In this case the initial balance was 50,000. It was reduced by a withdrawn sum of 10,000 so that the final balance became 40,000.

Top 5 Forex Trading Systems

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Fap Turbo	1. Fap Turbo NOTE: Don’t Buy Fap Turbo Without the Bonus below Fap Turbo took the industry by storm when it was released on 25 November 2008. The creators of Fap Turbo promised to deliver the most advanced Forex trading robot there has ever been on the market and so far they have not dissapointed the thousands of traders that were eagerly waiting for the launch. The reason why Fap Turbo is so popular is the fact that it offers a system that is more profitable, but less risky than the famous Forex Autopilot..exactly what the market has been waiting for. I purchased Fap Turbo on the day that it was launched and 3 days after that it had already earned me more than 500 pips in profit on my demo account. Fap Turbo is a fully automated trading system that requires virtually no human intervention or in depth understanding of the Forex markets. If you are interested in Forex trading, but have limited time and don’t want to spend more than a few minutes every day in front of the charts, then Fap Turbo is the system for you. >>Read Full Review [Click Here to Visit Fap Turbo] [Click Here for an Exclusive Fap Turbo Bonus]
10 Minute Forex	2. 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder NOTE: Don’t Buy 10 Minute Forex Without the Bonus below 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder is another system that was developed specifically for the part time trader who has limited time to spend on trading. Like Fap Turbo, this system only requires 10 minutes in front of the charts every day, but the difference is that this is not an automated trading system. The 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder system teaches your 2 simple, but effective Forex trading techniques that only require about 10 minutes in front of the charts every day. One advantage of this system of an automated system like Fap Turbo is that this system does not rely on any specific trading platform, so you can use it with any broker..automated trading systems like Fap Turbo only works with brokers that support the Metatrader trading platform. The other advantage of 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder over an automated system is that you have a better understanding of why each trade is placed and are much more in control of your own money, so if you have limited time, but prefer to have more control than what Fap Turbo offers you then this is a great system for you. >>Read Full Review [Click Here to Visit 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder] [Click Here for an Exclusive 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder Bonus]
Hectortrader Forex	3. Hectortrader Forex Course The Hectortrader forex trading course is different to the hundreds of hyped up Forex products you are likely to find online. This is not the typical e-book product that you read through in one evening. Hectortrader is a comprehensive Forex trading course consisting of more than 15 hours of training videos, 1 on 1 e-mail support, custom indicators and various other tools that will help you in your trading. If you are looking for purely mechanical system that only requires 10 minutes in front of the charts a day and don’t really care about understanding what your are doing, then perhaps one of the other products on this list will be better for you, but if you are serious about becoming a Forex trader and want to learn a complete trading system that can be applied to any currency or time frame, then the Hectortrader Forex course should be on the top of your list of Forex systems to consider. >>Read Full Review [Click Here to Visit Hectortrader]
Forex Avenger	4. Forex Avenger Forex Avenger is a mechanical trading system that is positioned about midway between the Hectortrader system and the 10 Minute Fortex Wealth Builder systems mentioned above. The Forex Avenger system requires a bit more time in front of the charts than the 10 Minute Forex Wealth Builder system, but is not as in depth as the Hectortrader system, so it is a nice combination of both for people who want to be actively involved in trading, but perhaps still part time. The biggest advantage of the Forex Avenger system is that it is 100% mechanical and requires absolutely no discretion. The package consists of 2 distinct trading methods - one for day trading on the hourly charts and one for trading part time on the daily charts. I spent a couple of hours backtesting the system and was very impressed by it, especially the “Set and Sleep” system that only requires a 10 minute analysis of the daily charts each day. If you are looking for an easy system to trade manually with that is completely mechanical, then Forex Avenger is deinifitely a good system to consider. >>Read Full Review [Click Here to Visit Forex Avenger]
Forex Funnel	5. Forex Funnel Forex Funnel is another automated Forex trading system like Fap Turbo, but with one major difference - it uses a much more high risk/high reward approach to trading. Forex Funnel uses a varient of a famous gambling strategy called the Martingale principle in it’s trading approach, which is the main reason why I would not recommend this system top most traders. When used in Forex trading, the Martingale strategy effectively has a 100% success rate (no losing trades), but there is also the risk of losing your whole account on one trade if you don’t have enough capital to work with. To learn more about how this strategy works, click on the link below to read my full Forex Funnel review. This system is definitely not recommended to most traders, but if you have $10,000 to spare and would like to try a system that could make you a lot of money very fast at the risk of losing your whole account, then this system could be what you are looking for. >>Read Full Review http://fxtradingreviews.com/top-5-forex-trading-systems/?tid=top5con1

How to Read Forex Charts?

2009-05-23T05:11:00.000-07:00

Our company provides you with an opportunity to engage in online Forex trading. It means you can monitor the real time market situation taking the advantage of the charts in our web-site, see section Live Trade. In our chart you can see the currency price when we entered the market shown as a red horizontal "entry" line and the current price highlighted with a grey "current" line.

There are three most commonly used types of charts: line chart, bar chart and candlestick chart.

We use the candlestick chart as it is the most popular and widely used chart type. A candlestick chart reveals things that are not visible on other charts. It gives comprehensive information about price on the market and thus helps better understand and predict future price moves.

Each bar of the chart is a candlestick known also as Japanese candlestick. Because of its appearance candlestick delivers more information than any other line or bar method.

Candlestick carries High, Low, Open and Close for the price at specific time and possesses a Body. A color and the size of the body supply traders with additional price details.

The major part of the candlestick, the body, represents a range between Open and Close prices.

When Open for the price is above Close, a candlestick body is filled (gold).

When Open for the price is below Close, a candlestick body is hollow.

One of the common set up which we are going to use for our charts is gold and white. So "gold" will stay for the filled candlestick giving a signal that the price has dropped and "white" will stay for hollow giving a signal that the price has gone up.

The "gold" and "white" candlesticks also describe two opposing forces on the market: buyers and sellers (also called bulls and bears). Bulls (buyers) are traders who push the price up and bears (sellers) pull price down. So the gold and white candlesticks show who is in control on the market at the time.

The size of the candlestick tells how strong buying or selling pressure is. A long big candlestick symbols of a strong market pressure (buying or selling), whereas a small size candlestick means that buyers and sellers are in consolidation and the pressure is weak.

Shadows (tails or wicks) of the candlestick reveal activity of buyers and sellers. The upper shadow shows activity of buyers towards pushing the price up. The lower shadow represents seller's activity pulling the price down. Long shadows occur during high activity coming from both sides - sellers and buyers - as they try to turn the price into their direction.

A small upper shadow plus a big lower shadow tells a trader that in the beginning sellers were dominant and forced the price down, but fell under the pressure of buyers at the end of the trading session.

A big upper shadow plus a small lower one indicates that at first buyers took over the trade and pushed the price up, but eventually forced to give up facing strong sellers' pressure.

A candlestick with no shadows indicated that buyers (in case of a white candle) or sellers (gold candle) were dominant during the whole trading session.

A candlestick that posses a small or no body and at the same time has small shadows indicates indecisiveness between buyers and sellers and a very little trading - a weak, slow trading market.

Doji candle has no or an extremely short body and long shadow(s). It is formed when buyers were unable to overcome sellers' pressure and push the price any further from an open point, and at the same time, sellers met strong buyers' pressure and also didn't succeed in their efforts to push the price down from the open point. The result is a draw: open price = close price.

The very first look at a newly opened chart usually gives traders a little or no clue what the market is currently doing. So the trader must reorganize a wavy indefinite graph into a very clear picture to be able to trade.

Analysis usually starts with defining the trend. The gold rule of trading says "Always trade with the trend" ... or at least try to.

Technical Analysis

Technical analysis is the market-generated data utilized for forecasting price movements. Tools like price charts and graphs are being used to illustrate the concept. The forecasting is based on three postulates viz., the market data contains all the fundamentals, volatility of the market and market sentiments. The possible market trends are up, down and sideways. More often than not the market moves in predictable patterns. The ultimate aim of technical analysis is to unravel this pattern basing upon the past trends.

Fundamental Analysis

Fundamental analysis assumes a country to be like company with economic reports that reveal the financial health of that countys currency. The value of a countrys currency depends upon the products and services it supplies to the international market. The more it supplies and is able to sell them the more of a demand is created for the currency because of its need by the purchasers of the product and services. Fundamental analysis takes into account the countrys potential to generate international trade. Fundamental analysis is found to be more effective when the learner uses the same judiciously. Learning the trade in these broad categories help the traders perform well in the market.

Forex trade holds high prospects for profit as well as the potential for loss depending upon the traders skill and understanding of the market. Learning Forex trade provides that knowledge which should be analytically used for achieving better performance.

Automated Forex Robot - What You Need To Know About An Automated Forex Robot

2009-05-15T12:30:00.000-07:00

So, what is the secret to winning in the Forex market? Some say that hard work, training, education and some luck are the factors that lean toward Forex success. For some, the way to take advantage of all this is to make use of an automated Forex robot.

An automated Forex Robot is a computer based program that will make your trading life easier to manage.

Since some traders cannot be in front of the computer to monitor the market twenty four hours a day, this computer program will be able to take over your thinking for you, everything from analyzing to trading. It is a software that runs on autopilot to trade foreign currencies and the results from its trades are consistent.

Although this doesn't guarantee you millions of dollars in one day, it will surely be a huge improvement in your trading career, and all you have to do is set it up which takes about five to ten minutes a day. You can then go about your daily business and you can watch the money role in.

When looking for an automated Forex robot, there are things that you should consider first like the manufacturer or the writer of the program. It is important that the person who created this program should be a successful trader him or herself so that you know that you can trust the software.

Another important thing to think about is the success rate of the program that the manufacturer is saying. An automated Forex robot can say that it has a success rate of over ninety percent but perhaps, in reality, this was only tried in simulations or backtests and not in actual trading. Make sure you see actual trading results showing profits before you buy anything.

Lastly, do not immediately believe anything a forex software robot site may say on their website because this information and so called user comments are biased. To obtain an unbiased view, you should visit other websites that are dedicated to reviewing such products. Getting information from unbiased reviews of several automated forex robots will give you a better understanding of which software will be suitable for your needs.

When it comes to trading the Forex, it is true that these programs can help you earn more and faster but you have to give time and effort in to looking for the right robot so that you get your money's worth out of it.

First up expert advisors need testing and retesting and with live trades, expert advisors development never ends and the larger the user base the speedier they can develop.

They just would not have any impact on each other. Not to mention that each robot will be running with different settings. Whether that be short term scalping or long term positions. Optimizing for different trading secrets and profit targets. As well as various risk exposure, stop loss configurations, trailing exit points, drawdowns, the account percentage To trade with. The list goes on. In summation, your robot trades according to your account balance, risk preferences and earning targets. So no two traders are alike.

What a forex robot brings to the table is unique number crunching ability, fast reaction time and a centered, consistent, cold impassive execution of trades according to your preset technique. Best of all, they give the opportunity for comprehensive newbies to enter the stimulating and profitable domain of trading currencies without needing a degree in global finance to get started.

A Forex Expert Advisor (also know by other names such as Forex Trading Robot, EA, MT4 EA, Automated Forex Trading Software) is a mechanical trading sy

2009-05-15T12:28:00.001-07:00

Even if you have not been trading forex for very long or you have just started, you will know that there are plenty of forex brokers out there in the market, right? When you trade, the prices you see and get from your own broker will vary from other brokers, and the spreads will be different too.

Though there are many brokers in the forex market, but there are only 2 types of brokers. What are they? One of them is Electronic Communication Network (ECN) while the other type is Market Maker.

ECN has a big network where they take prices from several banks, institutions, market makers or other forex traders in the ECN. From there, they will be able to filter out the best bid/ask price and display in their forex trading platform. Usually for very liquid currency pairs like EUR/USD, USD/JPY etc, sometimes there are no spreads but then you will have to pay for fixed commission per transaction that you do. That's how they earn money from forex trading.

Market makers, on the other hand, they 'decide' or set the price based on their systems where they think it's the best for themselves and the other parties. So when you buy a currency pair, they must sell it to you and vice versa if you sell.

Many of the market makers will try to cover your orders by passing them to somebody else who trades opposite of you or they will just take your order themselves and trade against you. That's why sometimes you will see a spike in your trade and your trade was stopped out. Oops.

Below are the pros and cons for the 2 types of forex brokers.

ECNs

Pros: - You may get the best price since the prices come from different sources - Scalping forex strategy may be viable as the prices are more volatile - Slippage can be prevented during news release if the ECN supports Stop-Limit orders - If they are a true ECN, they will not be trading against you but pass your order to other customers or other banks

Cons: - Their trading platforms are not as user friendly and will take more time to learn and get used to it - Many ECNs do not offer integrated news feeds - Many do not offer integrated forex charts - Stop loss and profit targets may be more difficult to calculate as the spreads are variable

Market Makers

Pros: - Have a more user friendly and technical analysis platform - Charting platforms and forex news feed are provided free most of the time

Cons: - They will trade against you (big problem), they may just trigger your stop loss if it's small - There may be huge slippage during news release and orders may not be allowed during high volatility - The price they offer you may be less attractive than ECN and orders may not be filled at the price you wanted

10 Strategies On How To Successfully Trade Forex With Automatic Trading Robots

2009-05-15T12:26:00.000-07:00

A Forex Expert Advisor (also know by other names such as Forex Trading Robot, EA, MT4 EA, Automated Forex Trading Software) is a mechanical trading system written in the MQL-4 programming language and designed to automate trading activities on the MetaTrader 4 platform.

Hundreds of brokers and system developers are enticing new traders into trading the Forex market with claims of double digit or higher returns in a short space of time.The reality is that 95% of new traders lose their trading bank in the first couple of months. How can you ensure that you are part of the successful 5%?

Here are 10 strategies that can help you achieve quick success when first starting off as a Forex trader.

1) Get familiar with the Forex market. You can't possibly hope to successfully trade a market that you do not understand. Don't listen to all the hype that "newbies" can buy an automatic system and be successful immediately. The Forex is a very exciting market but you need to read and learn about this beast before trying to trade it.

2) Purchase a commercially available Expert Advisor (automatic trading system) that offers a user support forum. There are systems that you can get for free, but if you are just starting out you should consider purchasing a system that provides good customer support and also offers a user forum where you can read about the problems and the solutions encountered by fellow traders.

3) Choose the system before you choose the broker. Different Expert Advisors trade on different currency pairs and different brokers offer different spreads. Once you know exactly what and how your system will be trading, you can then shop around for the best broker.

4) Choose a reputable broker who offers the MetaTrader4 trading platform free. There a literally hundreds of brokers now offering MT4, but some are more reputable than others. Only choose a regulated broker. User forums often contain discussions on broker performance.

5) Learn how to use MetaTrader 4. Make an effort to fully familiarize yourself with the trading platform so that you can set up your Expert Advisor up correctly and not make silly parameter errors. When in doubt, read the manual.

6) Know the difference between fixed and variable spreads: Some brokers offer fixed spreads and are usually market makers. Other types of brokers, like ECN brokers, offer variable spreads. Make sure you understand the effect this has on how your particular system trades as it can have a significant impact on your returns.

7) Experiment with micro lots when breaking in a new system. Brokers offer a range of lot sizes - there are standard mini and micro lots. Make sure you know the difference before you trade and choose only a micro lot account if you have a small trading bank or are just starting out with a new system.

8) Open a demo account. Most if not all brokers will offer a demo account which you can practise with before risking real money. If you are trading a new system or are new to trading it is a good idea to experiment for a period on a demo account first.

9) Start trading with small risk. Ensure you understand the value of each pip for the currency pair(s) you trade in your new system. There are pip calculators available on the Internet that will provide this information quickly for you.

10) Never get greedy. Never raise your risk above the recommended levels for the system you are trading. The user forums are often a good source of commentary on risk levels for a particular system.

Conclusion: Choosing the right broker and the right type of account is just as important as choosing the right system. If you need more help in choosing the right system, check out the live results and detailed reviews for top selling systems on http://www.forexrobotshop.com.

Forex Trading Tips - How to Use Divergence to Your Advantage in Forex Trading

2009-05-15T12:25:00.000-07:00

Most people will trade forex using traditional forex trading systems and keep looking for one that is close to a holy grail. Are you doing the same too? I mean it's alright to have your own trading system and it's good that you follow the rules and stick to it. I'm using a mechanical system which can make real profits and many of my members who are using it are satisfied with the performance.

But now I'm introducing you a method called divergence trading. For experienced traders, this method is definitely not a new stuff to them, but for new traders, you can learn forex with a wider perspective using divergence and below are the forex tutorials to it.

So what exactly is divergence in forex trading? It's basically a price action measured in relationship to a forex indicator. I use MACD in my charts to detect divergence, but in fact there are no hard and fast rules to which indicators you are using. You can also use oscillators like Stochastic, RSI (Relative Strength Index), trend indicators like CCI (Commodity Channel Index) etc.

We all know that forex indicators are always lagging but price is king because they are leading indicators. In divergence trading, it's something like price action because you can use it as a leading indicator. You can master this forex strategy after some practicing as practice makes perfect. When divergence is used properly in forex trading, you can profit from the method consistently too. It is a lower risk to sell near the top and near the bottom of a trend because the risks are relative smaller to the potential reward.

So what's your thinking when a currency pair is making higher highs and lower lows? It will mean the price can go even higher or lower right? So when the price is making higher highs and lower lows, we expect the indicators to follow suit. If they are not, then the price and the indicator, in this case the MACD, are diverging from each other and will mean that the forex market may reverse. Again, the method works better on higher timeframe like H4 or higher.

There are two types of divergence which are 1. Regular and 2. Hidden

Regular Divergence is often used or understood as a possible trend reversal while hidden Divergence is often used or understood as a possible trend continuation. I will be showing you some examples of live forex trading charts which divergence can be used.

The Use of Forex Trading Simulators As Trader's Guides

2009-05-15T12:23:00.000-07:00

People trade in the Forex for as many different reasons as there are people. Perhaps you want a better standard of living; you have big medical bills; you want a new home. Whatever the reason, the use of a training simulator is a great way to learn how to trade in the currency market before you take the plunge into real money trading.

Simulation includes free demonstration in real time, leverage of 400:1, and getting into the action of trading. However, even if traders practice trading in real time by testing services and strategies, they sometimes fail. The trading demo is not enough unless the trader knows what he is doing.

There are different important factors that traders should consider in order to succeed. Forex trading involves practice, reinforcement, and repetition. This process requires refined strategies and skills. So, traders should incorporate Forex simulators in their trading programs to help perfect their skills.

Compared to Forex demo that provides real time functions, Forex simulators help the traders upload, review, and view historical data any time. Simulators test the traders' understanding and recognition of trading signals and patterns in programs that may be fast forwarded and rewound. In this manner, the traders can retest their knowledge and find out what needs to improve and change to stay in the pace of Forex market conditions.

Forex simulators are essential because traders may be thoroughly trained even within a few days of working. This is because traders can rewind, pause, or fast forward whatever segment they have studied. A five-minute timeframe can be set up to a chosen area. Traders may also get trade snapshots, use the indicators they like, or keep journal trades to refine strategies.

Forex simulators are sometimes compared to PC games. The player has a mission to accomplish and repeating the game a number of times can lead to perfection. The Forex simulator also works this way; it requires practice, repetition, and reinforcement to be a good trader.

The traders are more prepared before they open live accounts. Forex simulators are serious tools for traders who want to learn how to trade before investing real money.

Keep in mind that there are thousands of Forex traders in the markets. How will the traders invest successfully if they don't understand the basics? If Forex simulators are clearly defined and practiced, a trader's success is more likely. Simulators teach traders to pitfalls so that they could make money out of their investments.

- Forex simulators are helpful guides to traders so that they can successfully trade in the forex markets. They teach the traders how to trade in pairs instead of currencies. The traders learn the relationship of one currency to the other and their impact one each other. The failure or success of trading depends on the right combination of currencies.

- Market conditions are also important when trading. Forex simulators help the traders understand the basics of trading markets the trader's advantage. They also update traders about economic events and news affecting market conditions. Novice traders can be shocked by market fluctuations brought about by economic and political events. Imagine the effect of the great tidal wave on Asian currencies. When that happens, beginners miss the opportunity to trade because they wait for the market to calm down. The potential of market conditions lies in its volatility and not in tranquility.

- Traders also study the advantages of short-term and long-term trading. They will obtain helpful techniques to gain profits. The bid and ask price should be well understood in relation to profits.

- Forex simulators enable the traders to weigh the effects of trading with too much caution. The incremental profit on small scales does not make any difference. Placing stop losses that are too tight can increase the risk of trading failures.

- Traders can choose whether to become independent or work with a broker. The risks are clearly explained as well as the outcome of trades. In any case, traders should analyze risks themselves or seek advice from reputable sources to prevent committing trade mistakes.

Forex trading simulators can help traders develop helpful strategies before starting their trading businesses. Simulated Forex trading is worth its cost because it starts with a plan, proper knowledge, and skills to achieve success in the Foreign Exchange Market.

Forex Strategies - Forex Breakout Strategy

2009-05-15T12:22:00.000-07:00

The Breakout Strategy is one of the most commonly used by professional and successful traders. Even though it is used by professionals, it is really simple to implement using regularly updated technical charts which are readily available online.

Breakouts in the forex market occur anytime that a price breaks above or below a resistance or support point. These points are determined by technical analysis and anyone can find what the technical points are on charts online. Sometimes I use the free technical charts available to all at fxstreet.com. However, I highly recommend the technical analysis charts and other resources inside the members area at plus.dailyfx.com.

For those of you who are very new to forex trading or who have never studied the breakout strategy, I will explain the definition of support and resistance points. A support point is a low point which has shown support for the particular currency pair (meaning the last time the pair touched that level it did not fall further). And a resistance point is a high point that the pair has tested but has not been able to break above. So, for example, let's say most recent technical chart on the the EUR/USD gives the following information: S1: 1.3609 S2: 1.3584 S3: 1.3560, and R1: 1.3657 R2: 1.3682 and R3: 1.3706. This means that S1 is the current first level of support for the EUR/USD and the last time the EUR/USD tested S1, enough buying occured that it did not fall any further. If the EUR/USD falls through S1, then S2 is the next level of support, and finally S3 is the third level of support. Likewise, R1 would indicate the first level of resistance through which it may be unlikely for the EUR/USD to be able to break above. If EUR/USD does break above R1, then R2 is the next level of resistance, and R3 is the third level.

Now that you fully understand the basics and the simplicity of reviewing the technical chart. It is easy to spot a breakout trading opportunity. When the price of a currency pair breaks below a support point or breaks above a resistance point, a high probability trade in the continued direction of the breakout may be executed. (If the currency pair breaks through a support point, then go short/place a sell order on that pair. If the currency pair breaks above a resistance point, then go long/place a buy order on that pair.)

The trick here is to enter the trade as soon as you possibly can after the breakout occurs. If you wait too long, you could miss the major move and actually enter too late, possibly even so late that the trade reverses for a loss. If you enter the trade and set a reasonable stop profit, you will minimize your loss potential while setting yourself up to collect the big pip movements that are often associated with currency pair breakouts.

Now obviously, a full breakout does not occur every time a currency pair breaks above or below a technical point. Sometimes it leaps above or below the technical point briefly and then pulls back. Such incidents are often referred to as "false breakouts."

However, catching the trend on a true breakout is worth losing some pips on all the false breaks the trader has to take when using this strategy. Hundreds of pips can be gained when a trader enters a trade at the beginning of a true breakout. So by setting your stops correctly, you should not lose too many pips on false breaks, and you may even be able to grab a small profit even on a false breakout.

When you catch a true breakout, however, you could very well gain hundreds and maybe even 2 hundred pips. When this happens you can set a trailing stop and let the trade continue to run at no risk with your profits "locked in." The first time a trader catches a true breakout with great momentum behind it, the trader will definitely recognize the power and simplicity of the breakout startegy and will realize that all of the small losses on false breaks were well worth it!

Five No Nonsense Strategies in Forex Trading

2009-05-15T12:19:00.000-07:00

When considering forex trading as a profit making venture, it is important to work out winning strategies beforehand if at all possible. Making decisions regarding your forex trading and developing a strategy can be seen as your foundation. With your strategy you will optimize your risk with respect to the expected reward, or put the odds in your favor. Trading strategies should be disciplined and limit risk, while placing you at the most favorable advantage in the market. One strategy is the simple moving away average, which is based on a technical study over twelve periods, with each period fifteen minutes in length. This is a good example of a trading decision that is arrived at through strategy.

A simple algorithm is used in this strategy. When currency price crosses above the twelfth period, simply move away it is a signal to stop and reverse. In this way a long position will be liquidated and a short position will be established, both using market orders. This system will keep trades always in the market, with either a short position or a long position after the first signal.

Another strategy is of support and resistance levels. This is another technical analysis strategy and derives support and resistance. The idea is that the market tends to trade above support levels and trade below resistance levels. If either a support or a resistance level is broken, then the market will follow through is the direction given. These levels can be determined by analysis of the chart and assessment of where the chart has encountered unbroken support or resistance in times past.

Anther strategy that many see as exotic is called the balloon strategy. A balloon option is an option that balloons, or increases in size when triggers are reached. For example, if an investor believes that the dollar will gain strength against the Euro in the near future and is currently trading at 100, the investor will see 110 as being strong resistance, but the investor also believes it will be broken. So, rather than buying straight dollars at 100 for the next six months the investor will purchase at "at the money" balloon call with a 110 trigger and multiple of two. The investor will then own a 100 call in USD110mm. But if the dollar and Euro ever trade at or above 110, the 110 call will double to USD 20mm.

The double bottom is another strategy worth looking at. The double bottom is significant to the short term trader as double bottoms indicate a possible major change in sentiment and trend. The pattern is used on all times frames, and many powerful intraday and long term bull markets are conceived from this setup. Double bottoms reflect strong support levels. When prices fail to break support in the down trending markets on more than one occasion we see powerful changes of trend. These reversal signals are meaningful. The most common entry point where a trader will open on a double bottom trade is on a move through the high of the two troughs. This high will represent secondary resistance, and when penetrated confirms a price reversal. The stops are placed around the lows of he patters because a move below lows negates the pattern premise.

Another good potential strategy is the ichimoku chart. These charts are following indicators, which identify support and resistance levels and create trading signals in a way that is similar to moving averages. A big difference however between the two is that the Ichimoku chart lines shift forward in time, creating wider support and resistance zones and decreasing the risk of trading false breakouts. They are calculated using information on trend existence, direction, support and resistance.

The four main lines are:

Turning Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2, for the past nine days

Standard Line = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2, for the past twenty-six days

Leading Span 1 = (Standard Line + Turning Line) / 2, plotted twenty-six days ahead of today

Leading Span 2 = (Highest High + Lowest Low) / 2, for the past fifty days, plotted twenty-six days ahead of today's date.

Whichever strategy you choose to use, devote as much study as possible to increase your chances of gain and profit.

Forex Auto Pilot Turbo: King of Forex Trading Robots?

2009-05-15T12:00:00.000-07:00

There is a lot of buzz these days about Trading Robots and Forex Auto Pilot Turbo (aka FAP Turbo, aka Forex A.P.T.) in particular. What is this all about?

I am not a mathematician so the algorithms that are used to build those softwares are a mystery to me. But I am a professional Forex Trader and Day Trader so the mere thought that a machine can trade successfully fascinates me. When I first heard about those automated system, I was dubious about it. Yet, let's think about the two main aspects of trading that make a trader (that is, a human trader) successful.

1) A sound system ["system": "an organized or established procedure, a manner of classifying, symbolizing, or schematizing" (Merriam Webster's online dictionary)], including Money Management rules.

The whole system and the Money Management rules must be tested over hundreds of trades. A machine would help, wouldn't it?

Once the results are satisfying, the trader must stick to his System and Money Management rules. No exception. Like ... a machine.

2) Trading (Forex, equities, commodities or whatever else) is a very psychological activity and thus requires training so that one can develop automatisms. And, perhaps more importantly, traders must keep their emotions in check. Again, like a machine.

Robots, in essence, can be designed to trade.

Of course, that does not mean that all robots are equal. Far from it. This is why I have tested many robots. In my opinion, Forex Auto Pilot Turbo is the best Forex Trading robot. Let's look at it more closely.

The Forex Auto Pilot Turbo is a relative new comer to the Forex world and has been making some waves in the industry. It has been tested with real live trading accounts, not demo accounts, over a period of months before being released. Its creator, Marcus Leary, and his team of experts and programmers wanted to make sure that it worked before releasing it. Marcus and his team have been working on the software for over 5 years, tweaking and fine tuning every aspect of it.

You will need some time to get used to the screens and the options of the software. Do not rush it is worth being patient. I strongly recommend doing a demo account to start with the system. This lets you run the program with 'virtual money' so you can see how profitable it can be without risking a single dime. Once you have constant results for a few weeks with the demo account, you will be ready to go live. It is very important you follow this advice.

The software has a video tutorial section where you get videos that are about 5 minutes in length to help you setup the system and all your screens. The videos are very professional. Once everything is set up, the robot will automatically place trades for you. It will only run when you are online. Forex is a 24/24 activity so whenever you turn your computer on you can resume trading. Now, if you want the trades to take place even when you are offline, you have the opportunity to do so via a Forex hosting service that will host your robot on a server. Therefore, if you decide so, the robot will work 24 hours per day for you. You don't need to monitor the trades if you don't have enough free time. The expert Advisor will monitor the trades, open orders and close positions for you when needed.

I have traded the system now since the end of November 2008. First in demo and then live trading. The results have been very satisfactory more so than with any other robot or "signal callers".

PROS:

Instant download from website.
The system trades any pair - although I recommend these pairs for maximum profits: EUR/USD, EUR/GBP and EUR/CHF - few other robots do.
60 day money back guarantee.
Option to use a scalper system and a long term trading system. The details are explained well in the videos.
The software is good for all: beginners or experienced traders. There is no need to be a genius to figure things out. The software will help the beginners to make better trades while they continue to build their knowledge base.
Support: my tickets were responded within a few hours. Very good support overall.
Other features (as advertised):
Automated risk scaling
High trading activity
High Spread Protection System
Built in loss prevention BILP
Extremely low drawdown

Cons:

Without any input from the trader, the FAP Turbo robot is the best. But, you will have better success with it if you choose your own settings. And, the matter of fact is that it takes a while to determine your own settings. This is also why it is critical to take the time to get familiar with the software and its features. Once you have set up your system, it will be worth it as the machine will eventually do all the work. Again, you may also simply decide to go with the default settings which are good.

Price: although it is a one-time fee, this is an expensive robot. Obviously, it is worth it. If one wants to make serious money at trading, they need to make investments anyway. You obviously get what you pay for. And what you pay for, here, is a great income.

You will need a MetaTrader 4 broker and they recommend ForexMeta.com. Even though MT4 is the most popular Forex trading platform, I had to mention this as a limitation.

Forex Auto Pilot Turbo works really great with scalper strategy but it works only "well" with long term positions. So keep in mind it is just better suited for scalper strategy.

CONCLUSION:

Forex Auto Pilot Turbo gets my full recommendation to anyone looking for a solid, reliable automated system that produces maximum results in the shortest period of time possible. I must say that at some point, as with any other robot, I expect the brokers to negate its profitability. But that still gives us many more months to make the most of this great software and reap the benefits from the best robot on the market.
