The current economic environment is leaving many people feeling uncertain about Share Trading, one only has to watch the daily movements and keep abreast of floundering organisations, to realise how volatile the Share market is. Yes there is still plenty of money in it, and with many stocks available at basement prices, there are opportunities to make good long term profits.
Because of this, many investors are now switching their gaze to the Forex markets as an alternative income generator. There are many ways to trade Forex, Long term or Scalping, the list goes on, but there is one thing they all have in common, a high level of risk if you start trading thinking it’s easy.
There are two core analysis techniques; Fundamental Analysis, basing trading decisions on news events and Technical Analysis, which involves interpreting the charts using a variety of indicators. This is how I like to trade as I am not reliant on news feeds. It doesn’t matter which you choose, to minimize potential losses, you are going to have to learn Forex trading before you start committing any hard earned cash.
A good starting point is offered by Babypips.com, it’s free and you will get to know some important terms, but they do not teach into how to create Forex trading strategies.
What is a Forex trading strategy? Simply put, it is a system for setting money management rules, analysing the progression of a chart, establishing a possible trade entry point (Setup), confirming the entry point, opening a trade, establishing an exist strategy to both minimise losses and to take profits.
A trading strategy is of the utmost importance when Forex trading, it establishes and guides your every move when formulating, entering and exiting a trade, and without it, you will find it very difficult to work out why things work and why they fail.
In your early days of trading, a trading strategy provides the system for trading your Demo account. These are provided by most brokers and allow you to try your hand, without putting cash at risk. You set an account balance and trade as the charts move using your trading strategy and watch your account either grow or vanish. You’ll soon discover if what you have developed works!
To learn how to develop a a specific trading strategy for profiting from market rebounds, there is a free video course which will teach you a trade called the “Rubber Band Trade” so give it a try to get you started.
It’s a great little series put together by a Professional Trader and teaches all the steps for this specific trade. Once you have tested this strategy on a Demo account and made it grab pips on a regular basis, you can apply it to a real account and start pulling some profitable trades whilst you develop and test other trading strategies that will make your Forex trading a success.
I regularly use this trading strategy and still trade it when the charts set up correctly. A quick 20-30 pips? Why would you miss the chance?
