Which Stocks to Invest In

How do you know which stocks to invest in? There are literally hundreds of thousands of stocks out there available on the stock market, just waiting for you to buy shares in them, with the promise of making you money if you hold onto their stock long enough.

Unless you have a particularly strong disposition to one particular industry, you might it find it next to impossible to find the perfect stock to invest in. How do you know which stock will earn you money? How do you know which stock will lose you money? It almost seems like gambling to invest in stocks, doesn't it?

You may have heard many stock analysts exhort you to "do your homework". Check a company's P/E (price to earnings) ratios and read their financial reports.

But even if you do that, you can still lose money, because you don't really know the nitty gritty details of the company's health and you certainly don't have the bigger picture of the company's overall performance since it first started trading publicly on the market.

Now, imagine having to do your "homework" for dozens and dozens of stocks, to find the one that is right for you. Even if you find one that you like, what if the price per share is too high? If you only have a limited budget with which to invest, and each share is too expensive, what is the point of investing if you can only buy one or two shares of a stock?

Perhaps the answer lies in the use of computers. There are computer programs out there that are programmed to analyze hundreds of thousands of stocks on the market and analyze them for their past performance, their daily trading volume, their highs and lows, their splits, and many other dimensions of data. Based on their analysis, they are able to perform millions of computations per second and identify which stocks have the highest statistical probability of surging in value in the upcoming time horizon.

Day Trading Classes

Day trading classes are not just for newbie rookie investors. Seasoned veteran investors are not exempt from the need to constantly hone their skills, the need to learn more advanced investing techniques, tips , and strategies. In any endeavor there is always room for growth. After all, wouldn't you want to learn the secrets of how to improveyour return on investment or how to increase your profit margins?

In addition to the technical knowledge that they provide, day trading classes also help you to develop and reinforce the mental conditioning requisite for an investor's mindset. Investing isn't 100% technical. You also need to undergo a whole paradigm shift in terms of your attitude toward money, the ability to conquer your fears of investing, to learn to expand your comfort zone, to learn to understand how the market works. Surprisingly, a lot of what holds us back from success is our belief in ourselves and our ability to be successful. That is why day trading classes have one other redeeming quality: They provide mentorship.

If you want to become a superstar investor, you need to learn from the superstars. Believe me, the mentorship of an experienced investor is worth its weight in gold. Day trading classes literally pay for themselves many times over when you apply what you learn. Experienced day traders who have blazed the trail to financial success are an invaluable resource to help you learn to invest properly, to help you learn from their mistakes so that you don't make the same mistakes.

Day Trading - What's it Really All About? Choices That Lead to Stellar Success and Unlimited Wealth

There's an old Buddhist saying, As within, So without.

You may think its all about the charts, the fundamentals, your system and the unprecedented world economy, but haven't there been times when you sensed there was something more to it?

Me too. Being tuned in to all that is what separates the super traders from the guys who are second mortgaging their home hoping to make a come back.

Aside from the obvious, not putting too great a percentage of your overall nugget in any one trade, how does one keep the emotional element out of decision-making? Is this emotional element the same thing as your gut feeling? It's easy to confuse the two and it's well worth learning to discern the difference.

Keeping notes is critical, but not just about the numbers. Taking time to notice your own patterns is invaluable in the long run if there is to be a long run.

Over-confidence can be just as deadly as under-confidence. And playing when you really don't have the juice to, but feel like you need to can also have its consequences,

There really aren't a lot of women out there trading, not relatively, so for a long time I thought it was only because I had focused on my inner work for so long that I was naturally using my trades as way of flushing out my deeper issues---resistance to having more than enough or the compulsion to keep trading when I had already done well enough for the time being.

But then I attended one of those weekend workshops with the best of the best. And on the very first day my trading coach said, the market is mirror---a stark mirror.

That, to me, was worth the price of admission!

Trading For A Living - Is It Easy? Hardly!

Trading for a living, what could be a more alluring profession? The Forbes list of the 500 wealthiest people in the world is littered with names of people who have amassed huge fortunes in the world of Wall Street. Warren Buffett, George Soros, Paul Tudor Jones, James Simons, Louis Bacon, and Eddie Lampert, just to name a few. In 2007, to make the list of 100 top earners on Wall Street, you needed an income of at least $75 million! The top earners made over $1 billion!

With that in mind, it is no wonder that new traders set out to make their fortunes in the financial markets. After all, they are bombarded with advertisements and infomercials describing the next great thing in the world of trading. Starting with accounts as small as just a few thousand dollars, these traders hope to hit it big, and they seek to find that holy grail of trading systems that will lead them to the promised land of Wall Street riches.

I was one of those traders almost 15 years ago. At that time, after subscribing to a couple stock newsletters, I was bombarded with other newsletter writers, telling me they new the way to financial fortune. One service got me interested in commodity trading by sending me some spread trading strategies. These proved to be outdated and ineffective, since markets change over time. I then learned a popular trend following system, had some initial success, and then was hooked on trading. Little did I know that trading is a lot more difficult than I realized.

What I didn't realize is that the competition in the financial markets is fierce. Wall Street is littered with MBA's and PHD's from the Ivy League schools. These people are groomed for Wall Street careers through summer internships at the big investment houses such as Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, or even some big hedge funds. Some of these hedge funds not only hire traders, but top scientific minds from disciplines such as physics, chemistry and engineering.

In 1998 I had the opportunity to work for a hedge fund and commodity trading firm as an execution trader dealing with Asian and European markets. This firm was run by a trader who hired computer programmers that could test and research all of his ideas and then program them into automated trading models. The only orders I needed to execute were the more sizable orders so we could avoid the slippage caused by large stop orders. There were other traders and research staff that all had a hand in developing new models for the system. In spite of this, that firm eventually nearly failed and is now just a shell of itself.

Around that same time, I learned that a friend of mine from college worked for one of the biggest offshore commodity funds, and one of the most successful. He indicated that firm also had a significant number of research personnel conducting research on new trading models. Their system was also heavily automated, they had their own research platform for developing these new models.

Also in the late 1990's I was introduced to Jaffray Woodriff of Quantitative Investment Management in Charlottesville, Virginia. We had a mutual friend that was a fraternity brother of mine at William and Mary. The first time I spoke with Jaffray, I realized that he was far more intelligent than I. He was also a computer programmer and learned how to test and develop his own trading models on his own software. He clearly had a passion for the markets and I could just tell this guy was going to make it big. At that time, he had a small trading business, but ran into some initial problems. So, he took off for Wall Street to work at an investment bank. He had some good success on the trading desk there and a few years ago, decided to start up his current business with a partner. That hedge fund now manages over $3 billion!

Now that you know how stiff the competition is, you may think twice about trying your hand at trading for a living. Can it be done? Of course it can. However, the statistics suggest that traders who start out with less than $10,000 trading futures or in the Forex currency markets will fail 90% of the time. The main reason for this is the lack of capital, but it can also be attributed to not having a coherent plan for trading.

With this in mind, new traders should follow the following process before attempting to stake their claim in the financial markets:

1. Determine the absolute highest amount of money you are willing to lose in the markets, money that if lost, will not affect your standard of living.

2. Determine what you seek to achieve in this business. What are your short term goals and long term goals?

3. Determine your monthly bills and make sure those are covered by ANOTHER source of income besides trading.

4. Figure out what type of trading suits your personality best. Are you able to withstand significant losses while waiting for significant trends to develop? Do you need to be right more often than you are wrong? Do you want to take quick small profits or wait for big trades that occur over longer periods of time? Can you pay attention to the markets with no distraction throughout the day, or do you have a real day job that requires most of your attention? Are you more interested in technical analysis or fundamental analysis? Do you like mechanical trading systems or do you like to go with your gut? When you answer these questions you can figure out whether you should focus on longer term stock trading, daytrading, short term swing trading, options trading, etc.

5. Once you figure out the trading style that suits you best, then you must conduct a good bit of research on the markets to develop your trading strategies. I recommend backtesting strategies on historical data with a program such as TradeStation. If you are able to program your own software for developing trading models, that is even better. Do not fall into the trap of just looking at the bottom line results of the models that you test. You must see how they perform on a day-to-day and month-to-month basis so that you will have an idea of the losses you can expect when trading for real.

6. Do not start trading until you are absolutely confident in the strategies you have developed. One big mistake a lot of traders make is not sticking to their plan. As soon they experience a drawdown, they give up on their strategy and try and trade a new one. As soon as they start the new one, the old one starts working. This is one reason I recommend against the purchase of black box trading systems without any knowledge of how these systems select their trades.

7. After you start trading, maintain records on how your trading. Be sure to write down the reason for initiating your trade, and the reason you exit. If you deviate from your strategy, state why, and how that deviant trade performed. In this way you will be able to keep track of what works for you and what does not.

Ultimately, you must approach trading like you would any other business or profession. It requires research, education and knowledge to succeed in this business. Many people fail, so do not assume that because you have some smarts that you can be successful. Successful trading requires careful planning, common sense, intestinal fortitude, and a little luck!

The Myth of Automated Day Trading Systems

There is a widespread rumor in the financial community that successful day trading can be manually programmed and automated to produce vast profits for minimal work and input on the part of traders, providing a regular and consistent income by simply setting up a system, clicking a button to turn it on, and walking away.

This is NOT true.

I myself am just one of the many victims of this 'automated trading system' myth. In 1996, I strongly believed that a trading system like this was possible, and I wasted four years of my life trying to automate and computerize trading.

I programmed dozen of strategies, I used TradeStation, MetaStock, and OmniTrader, and I read countless books and articles on systems trading. I researched automated trading solutions and talked endlessly with other traders, always trying to find the edge I was missing. I stayed on this path for four years, only to realize in the end that I was chasing the nonexistent Holy Grail of trading.

Simply put, finding success with automated day trading systems is impossible.

Think about it for a second:

If day trading could be automated, why would Meryll Lynch, Goldman Sachs, and other large financial companies spend millions of dollars every year in salaries for traders? If anyone should have a handle on systems trading, it should be the big-shots in the industry.

If day trading could be automated, we would soon have computers trading against computers, and trading would cease to exist since there would be only ONE price. This is equivalent to chess: if you have computers playing computers, then there is never an actual winner.

Stock prices rise and fall based on human emotions and human perceptions. It's not economic reports that move the market - it's the reactions of traders TO a report that move the market.
Again, it took me four years to come to this conclusion. It took me four years to realize that there's only one thing that can give you an edge in the market: experience.

Now, don't get me wrong. You need rules. You need a strategy. You need discipline. Automated trading systems can provide you with all of these things, or at least simulate these things. But there's another key ingredient to success that automated trading systems will never be able to account for, and that's experience.

Experience is essential in everything you do, whether you're a toddler trying to walk, a child learning to read and write, a college student studying a foreign language, a professional starting a new job, or an athlete mastering another skill.

When it comes to trading, you need a trading strategy, you need rules on when to enter and exit a trade, and you need to establish how much money you are willing to risk. But once you've got the plan, you need to execute it. And only experience will help you there.

It's like approaching a traffic light that just turned yellow - sometimes you brake at the light and sometimes you decide to go for it. But how do you make that decision? Obviously you don't make the same decision EVERY time you encounter a yellow light. Why? Because no situation is exactly the same as the ones before. You rely on your experience of former situations to lead you to the right decision in the current situation.

The same is true in trading - no trade is exactly like the trades before or after. When it comes to trading success, you need two essential components: a plan AND experience.

It's not a problem to establish a plan, but the only way to gain experience is by actually trading, even if it's just on paper. I like the saying, "Practice makes a master," and it works really well here because it applies in trading, too.

So don't make my mistake. Instead of spending years trying to pinpoint the Holy Grail of automated trading which doesn't exist, sit down and focus on gaining the experience you need to find TRUE success. Invest in trading education. Study your trading charts. Practice trading. Learn through trial and error. In the long run, gaining the confidence and experience you need to be successful will be far more rewarding than a fruitless search for automated trading systems.

Forex Trading Tool - The Three Trendline Strategy

Newcomers to trading the foreign exchange currency markets do well to accept the observation of experienced seasoned traders that the idea of a perfect Forex trading tool is an illusion.

While no perfect Forex trading tool exists, using a combination of tools to identify a converging of favorable market factors can yield a majority of high probability trades over a period of time.

Trendlines certainly deserve close consideration and many successful traders add them to their collection of Forex trading tools.

It should be stated at the outset that trendlines by themselves do not provide a strong enough signal to warrant making a trade. They are a useful addition and provide confirmation of signals from other tools. (See resource box for a visual example of using a trendline as a trade entry point)

The Three Trendline Strategy

Consider these three main types of trendlines you need to know and use if you are going to make any sense of trendlines.

Trendlines are lines drawn across significant lows in an uptrend, and significant highs in a downtrend. The more candles to the left and right of the lowest candle in an uptrend or the highest candle in a downtrend make the low or high point more significant.

1. Short Term Trendlines

Draw these lines across the most recent two lows (for an uptrend) or highs (for a downtrend). These are best observed on a smaller time frame such as a 15 minute or 30 minute chart.

2. Medium Term Trendlines

These are best observed on a higher time frame such as a 60 minute chart. Again connect the nearest significant low to current price action to the previous significant low in an uptrend or the nearest significant high to current price action to the previous significant high in a downtrend.

3. Long Term Trendlines

Use higher time frames such as the 4 hour chart or the daily chart to draw long term trendlines using the same method described for Medium Term Trendlines.

The long term trendline can be a powerful Forex trading tool. Keep in mind that the daily chart is used prominently by traders of big institutions. Such traders probably do not engage in small moves on an intra day level. They are more concerned about taking a position on a currency pair.

The daily chart is consulted by them when making decisions. So by drawing a trendline on a daily chart you can present to yourself graphically just where price is and where it is likely to either possibly bounce and retrace or continue with the current momentum.

Using Trendlines As An Effective Forex Trading Tool

Trendlines on the short time frame merely give you a defined picture of current price action. These trendlines are broken often during the course of a day. It is probably not a good idea to enter trades based on trendline breaks from a small time frame chart. Their main use is to give you a clear, instantly recognizable graphical representation of current price behavior.

However, here is where trendlines can prove to be a useful Forex trading tool:

If you notice price coming back to test a trendline on the higher time frames, (anything over 30 minutes), look at other factors. For example:

  • Draw in horizontal lines to mark key support and resistance using previous highs and lows.
  • Draw Fibonacci retracement and extension levels.
  • Calculate the daily pivot points and put them on your chart.
  • Have the 200 EMA (Exponential Moving Average) shown on your charts.

Now, if price were to bounce or touch the trendline on the medium to higher time frames, that is, on the 60 minute, 4 hour, or even daily charts, does that price point also coincide with or match up with one of the other indicators mentioned above?

If for example the trendline intersects with a pivot point which is also a Fibonacci 50% or 62% retracement, or 127% or 162% extension, then you have a convergence of factors. If you entered a trade at that point there is a high probability you will catch at least 10 to 20 pips on the first move on the bounce.

Looking for such opportunities takes patience. They don't come up so often but when they do you can be ALMOST guaranteed a successful trade if you keep your first profit target to a reasonable level.

If trading multiple lots, then be sure to take your first profit at the 10 to 20 pip level and let one or two other lots run if price continues in the direction you anticipate. At the same time of course you would move up your stop to break even point after taking first profit so your trade can now run without risk.

Employ trendlines as a Forex trading tool with caution and discretion. Covering your charts with every trendline possible will only result in confusion and blurry analysis.

One or two trendlines at key or significant swing points, (price highs and lows) can give you a defined, clear picture of price action, which, when coupled with your other Forex trading tools, can result in profitable trades.

Swing Trading For Beginners

The swing trader is not looking to turn a profit in a day. He will hold a stock anywhere from three days to three or four weeks.

This trading technique is most suitable for people who do not have the time to dedicate to sitting in front of a computer to monitor the markets when they are open. Many traders who are novices find swing trading to be the style that they are best suited for.

Swing traders tend to pick stocks that are traded on the big three exchanges which are the NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ. The reason that they stick with stocks traded on these markets is because they are the most actively traded markets so these stocks have the greatest chance of going very high or low in a given day. This means that the swing traders wont have to hold onto stocks too long before making a profit.

Swing traders prefer to trade when the market is not in full bull market or in full bear market. Swing traders are poised to make the most profits when the market is relatively static. The swing traders will make money with short-term movements in the market.

As a swing trader, you will not make a lot of money with one trade. The profits will be aggregated from making multiple trades over a period of time. Swing traders will only buy and sell once the stock has reached its baseline, so that they could make their trade at the best possible moment to get the most bang for their buck.

A swing trader will attempt to earn a 10-15% gain on his investment, which makes it a viable strategy for beginners, but would also have enough profit potential to interest intermediate traders too. To make the most gains, swing traders try to sell their stocks as close to the upper or lower margins without jeopardizing their chance at missing the large gains. If a swing trader waits too long he runs the risk of the market turning around and hell wind up losing money instead of gaining.

With practice, a swing trader can learn to read the market indicators and avoid this from happening often.

The great thing about swing trading is that beginners find out pretty quickly whether their decisions to buy or sell have paid off, which can be an enormous incentive to continue. Swing trading isnt as quick as day trading to see a return on your investment, but it also doesnt require the attention to market conditions and details that is necessary for day trading to be successful.

In addition, swing trading is also a lot less stressful than day trading. Day traders often find themselves stressing over all of the stock trades they have to make in a day and hope that they have made the correct decision.

Smart Ways To Learn Currency Trading

I'm presenting to you today smart ways to learn currency trading. This is a very powerful business opportunity for individuals everywhere. It gives people the chance to build their own business, from home, with very little investment.

If there is one thing to pay considerable attention to, it would be the Federal Reserve. This is the central bank in the United States. It has one job, controlling the supply of money. Usually news anchors will say there job is to control inflation, but that's typically the same thing. Since we're talking about an entity that is controlling the supply of money, obviously supply and demand is changed, so the price should change. That's very important for the currency trader. The Federal Reserve has two ways to change the supply: raise interest rates, cut interest rates. A raise means it is harder for people to get loans, so this means supply goes down and money goes up. A cut means it is easier for people to get loans, so the supply goes up and money goes down.

The next piece of advice I can give you is to try to view things from a simple point of view. A lot of times people will build up stuff in their head, making everything look more complicated than it actually is. This isn't rocket science. You're not a scientist developing a huge rocket to goto the moon. You're trading currency. It's not complicated.

Lastly, you'll want to get your hands on Forex Killer trading software. It acts as a tool that analyzes currency graphs for you. It will find the profitable tends and tell you where to buy. This makes things easier and it's like having a mentor telling you where to trade.

The automated software of Forex Killer will give you an immediate edge in the market. Make trades that work for your profit line. For more information on the Forex Killer software, check out Forex Charting Software.

Spot Currency Trading - A Brief Guide to Forex

In today's world, Foreign Exchange Trading which is also known as Forex has evolved into a major online industry. When done correctly, trading can be very profitable for not just the big companies but the individual working from home.

This is one of the good things about the internet as it has levelled the playing field between big companies and small traders.

As the biggest financial market, the FX (Forex) is the best market to make trades. Everyday, trades to the value of over 2 trillion dollars take place. If you compare that to another big market known as the New York Stock Exchange, the value of trades on that market is 25 billion dollars every day. This is all big bucks stuff which attract many large multi national companies, banks and governments.

Money is traded on the Forex and usually involves a simultaneous flow of buying and selling of different currencies. These currencies are handled by brokers.

If you are active in purchasing currency, what happens is that you actually invest in the economy of a certain country. For instance, if you by UK pounds, this will mean that you are really buying a piece of the UK economy. The current state of that countries economy is what sets the value for the currency and any fluctuations.

In the beginning, the idea of being able to trade in the Forex was meant to be for the large banks and companies. It was not intended for the likes of the little people like me. You needed many millions to get involved and that was beyond the scope of many normal people.

But times have now changed and in today's world, just about anyone with a little money can trade through a broker. All the trading can be done through the internet. All that is required is that you sign up with a reputable trading firm and moniter the market online.

Trade continues 24 hours a day through the three main trading centers in the United Kingdom, Japan and USA.

There are a number of benefits when it comes to trading online and for most cases, it is usually a very good way to trade. As long as you have a computer with good internet access, you can trade with the best of them.

With a little research and due diligence, there is no reason why you can not take part in the Forex and trade online.

There is a lot of trading software, trading courses and trading systems, all claiming to be the best. On our website, we have independent reports of the better ones. See if we can help you over at Stock Market Software.

Facts of Day Trading

Are you thinking of entering the fast-paced world of day trading? Arm yourselves with the information from this fact sheet on day trading.

What is day trading?

Day trading is an investment tactic that does online daily stock trading with a relatively short investment. Those who do day trading usually buy and sell securities during the same market day and, as a general rule, do not hold stocks overnight. Many day traders make dozens of trades every market day hoping to capture profits that arise from small intraday price fluctuations.

How is day trading different from swing trading?

Day trading relatively holds the stock for only the day. After the stock market closes, a day trader has no stock in his hands. Swing trading holds a stock for at least a few days, waiting out for the best price before dumping it back to the market. Day trading is much more stressful and requires guts and a keen business sense. Once you get good at day trading, you can earn up to $50,000 from your initial investment.

How much capital would you need for day trading?

You need an investment equivalent to buy 1000 stocks. That is roughly around $20,000. Because the chances are small that you will find a marketable stock with a price of under $20, this is enough to get your day trading underway. However, you must remember that this is a 100% risk capital so do not worry too much if you lose this amount very early.

What are the general rules for day trading?

  • Always trade with the trend.
  • Cut losses short
  • Never get emotionally involved in your trades.

What are the most suitable stocks to trade for day trading?

It is advisable to trade high volume stocks. Go with the trend with the popular stocks available. It'll be easier for you to sell those stocks at the end of the day trading.

How does a usual day trading transaction occur?

For example, at 10:00 AM a day trader might buy 1000 shares of stock XYZ just as the price begins to rise on good news, then sell it at 10:04 AM when it's up by 1/2 ($0.50). The day trader makes $500, minus commission. With today's cheap commissions of $29.95 or less per trade, that's a quick $440.10 or better, excluding taxes.

Most people who deal with day trading spend all of their time in front of the computer, watching the slightest change in the stock price. As the prices go up and down, the day trader must be alert as to when to sell his stock or wait for the moment to hold on it. This can be a very stressful lifestyle as a mere second could mean an increase of half the stock price and missing that moment for any person engaging in day trading could mean a loss on his investment.

Day trading is not a get rich scheme. It is serious business where you could lose everything within minutes because of wrong information. Before jumping into day trading, remember to do your homework first. Go to seminars on day trading, use simulations if possible and practice reading market indicators. To be a successful day trader, don't just need luck. Knowledge and experience counts. Welcome to the world of stock markets and investments!

The Number One Forex Trading Strategy

The Number One Forex Trading Strategy is .. actually a combination of strategies. The truth is that there a number of ways to really do well on a consistent basis in the Forex market. instead of loading you up with some non-existent "holy grail," I would rather provide you with real, proven and reliable Forex trading strategy. Here is the plan:

First, get your trading head on straight. You would be shocked at how many traders come to the currency market with all sorts of distractions and issues in their heads. How on earth can you make a wise decision in this frame of mind. It is actually, a good idea to review some monetary current events and data along with some basic trading principles about a half-hour prior to actually trading. I know this sounds monotonous but trust me, it is what the winners do.

Second, use your technical analysis tools properly. Trade on the Forex market with proven technical indicators. I like to start off with the 200 day moving average. This is the standard by which the "big money" judges the worthiness or timeliness of currencies for trading against another. It is obviously not the end- all- be- all but it is a great place to start. I then move on to the indicators that show me if a currency is severely over bought or over sold. If this is the case and the currency lines up with the 200 day moving average then I start to become very interested. Here is an example: The dollar is trading above the 200 day moving average. It is severely over sold. Now I am very interested in confirming this. How?

Third, use a reliable Forex trading software program with proven results and a positive reputation. I need clear and reliable signals from my software program and if these line up with the aforementioned indicators than I am feeling confident and ready to gain some significant pips. By the way, I have provided a link below for an objective review of the three leading software programs, I think it will help.

This method I just laid out is not pie-in-the-sky but it is proven and will more than likely make a winner out of you on the Forex market.

Finding The Best Broker For Currency Trading

If you are trying to find the best broker for currency trading you will want to find the following:

  • Personal account management
  • Live training, one-on-one help
  • Rates, Limits and Stop-Loss
  • No software download
  • Instant Deposit with Credit Card
  • Margin trading with small start up (US$50 - US$200)
  • Freeze the Rate you see and trade Forex online
  • No hidden costs
  • Security and Safety
  • Competitive Spreads
  • Live Real-Time streaming quotes

This is just an abbreviated list of the things that I look for in a trading platform with a good broker for currency trading. Let me briefly touch on each component.

Personal account management - Ask these questions: Do you have your own account service manager working closely with you? Are the dealing room services are offered to you by expert Forex dealers? Can you speak with them over the phone, over e-mail, or over a chat line.

Live training, one-on-one help - Your broker for currency trading should offer background information for the Forex market, a guided-tour, seminars, one-on-one training, chat, telephone support, forex assistance tools, etc ... If you are using their services then they should provide you with.

Rates, Limits and Stop-Loss - Your broker for currency trading should execute your set rates, including Stop-Loss and Take-Profit rates, by using the latest technologies. Remember, you should not lose more than your Stop-Loss amount at risk, as defined by you.

No software download - I don't know about you but I prefer not to have to use a program that I have to download. I want to start trading immediately. Without a software download required you may login to your account and trade anytime, from anywhere. I like that.

Instant deposit with credit card - It is always nice to have a broker with currency trading that which allows you to fund your account with your credit card, so you can start trading immediately, regardless of banking work days or
hours.

Margin trading with small start up (US$50 - US$200) - A lot of platforms advertise that they have "DEMO accounts" available. That may be helpful to a new trader but far more beneficial is a system that enables you to trade with small amounts as well as large. I would look for a platform that you can start using even with an amount as little as $50! No bank would ever offer you such an opportunity! When trading, you may deposit the sum that suits you, or fits the amount that you are willing to risk. Starting to trade with such small amounts is the best way to get acquainted with the Forex marketplace. Much better than operating "DEMO" accounts, where you are not really risking your own money. After getting familiar with such a system, you may increase your level and scope of activity, as you find fit.

Freeze the Rate you see and trade Forex online - Try to find broker for currency trading that gives you the possibility to Freeze the Buy or the Sell rate that you see for a few seconds, regardless of rate movements. That means that the rate you see and freeze is the rate you get (if you decide to make the deal). During those "FREEZE" seconds, the Forex market could change, however - you are guaranteed to use the rate you have frozen, in case you wish to materialize it into a deal. It will b hard to find this component but seek and you will find it out there.

No hidden costs - This is a big one for me. I do not like being duped. Just be straight forward with me, that is all I ask. Yet, this is very hard to find. I want transparency when it comes to spreads and commissions. A really good broker in currency trading will be transparent.

Security and Safety - Make sure that whatever happens: failure, disaster, etc. your transactions are intact, secure, and backed up.

Competitive Spreads - This speaks for itself, "How many "pips" do they offer as their spread?"

Live Real-Time streaming quotes This is another big one for me. I do not know why a broker/platform would not have this benefit but many do not.

I hope this information helps, I have tried to be as thorough as possible. When it comes to finding the best broker/platform, I have included a link below. it is the best that I have come across. Good luck.

Trading For A Living - Is It Easy? Hardly!

Trading for a living, what could be a more alluring profession? The Forbes list of the 500 wealthiest people in the world is littered with names of people who have amassed huge fortunes in the world of Wall Street. Warren Buffett, George Soros, Paul Tudor Jones, James Simons, Louis Bacon, and Eddie Lampert, just to name a few. In 2007, to make the list of 100 top earners on Wall Street, you needed an income of at least $75 million! The top earners made over $1 billion!

With that in mind, it is no wonder that new traders set out to make their fortunes in the financial markets. After all, they are bombarded with advertisements and infomercials describing the next great thing in the world of trading. Starting with accounts as small as just a few thousand dollars, these traders hope to hit it big, and they seek to find that holy grail of trading systems that will lead them to the promised land of Wall Street riches.

I was one of those traders almost 15 years ago. At that time, after subscribing to a couple stock newsletters, I was bombarded with other newsletter writers, telling me they new the way to financial fortune. One service got me interested in commodity trading by sending me some spread trading strategies. These proved to be outdated and ineffective, since markets change over time. I then learned a popular trend following system, had some initial success, and then was hooked on trading. Little did I know that trading is a lot more difficult than I realized.

What I didn't realize is that the competition in the financial markets is fierce. Wall Street is littered with MBA's and PHD's from the Ivy League schools. These people are groomed for Wall Street careers through summer internships at the big investment houses such as Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, or even some big hedge funds. Some of these hedge funds not only hire traders, but top scientific minds from disciplines such as physics, chemistry and engineering.

In 1998 I had the opportunity to work for a hedge fund and commodity trading firm as an execution trader dealing with Asian and European markets. This firm was run by a trader who hired computer programmers that could test and research all of his ideas and then program them into automated trading models. The only orders I needed to execute were the more sizable orders so we could avoid the slippage caused by large stop orders. There were other traders and research staff that all had a hand in developing new models for the system. In spite of this, that firm eventually nearly failed and is now just a shell of itself.

Around that same time, I learned that a friend of mine from college worked for one of the biggest offshore commodity funds, and one of the most successful. He indicated that firm also had a significant number of research personnel conducting research on new trading models. Their system was also heavily automated, they had their own research platform for developing these new models.

Also in the late 1990's I was introduced to Jaffray Woodriff of Quantitative Investment Management in Charlottesville, Virginia. We had a mutual friend that was a fraternity brother of mine at William and Mary. The first time I spoke with Jaffray, I realized that he was far more intelligent than I. He was also a computer programmer and learned how to test and develop his own trading models on his own software. He clearly had a passion for the markets and I could just tell this guy was going to make it big. At that time, he had a small trading business, but ran into some initial problems. So, he took off for Wall Street to work at an investment bank. He had some good success on the trading desk there and a few years ago, decided to start up his current business with a partner. That hedge fund now manages over $3 billion!

Now that you know how stiff the competition is, you may think twice about trying your hand at trading for a living. Can it be done? Of course it can. However, the statistics suggest that traders who start out with less than $10,000 trading futures or in the Forex currency markets will fail 90% of the time. The main reason for this is the lack of capital, but it can also be attributed to not having a coherent plan for trading.

With this in mind, new traders should follow the following process before attempting to stake their claim in the financial markets:

1. Determine the absolute highest amount of money you are willing to lose in the markets, money that if lost, will not affect your standard of living.

2. Determine what you seek to achieve in this business. What are your short term goals and long term goals?

3. Determine your monthly bills and make sure those are covered by ANOTHER source of income besides trading.

4. Figure out what type of trading suits your personality best. Are you able to withstand significant losses while waiting for significant trends to develop? Do you need to be right more often than you are wrong? Do you want to take quick small profits or wait for big trades that occur over longer periods of time? Can you pay attention to the markets with no distraction throughout the day, or do you have a real day job that requires most of your attention? Are you more interested in technical analysis or fundamental analysis? Do you like mechanical trading systems or do you like to go with your gut? When you answer these questions you can figure out whether you should focus on longer term stock trading, daytrading, short term swing trading, options trading, etc.

5. Once you figure out the trading style that suits you best, then you must conduct a good bit of research on the markets to develop your trading strategies. I recommend backtesting strategies on historical data with a program such as TradeStation. If you are able to program your own software for developing trading models, that is even better. Do not fall into the trap of just looking at the bottom line results of the models that you test. You must see how they perform on a day-to-day and month-to-month basis so that you will have an idea of the losses you can expect when trading for real.

6. Do not start trading until you are absolutely confident in the strategies you have developed. One big mistake a lot of traders make is not sticking to their plan. As soon they experience a drawdown, they give up on their strategy and try and trade a new one. As soon as they start the new one, the old one starts working. This is one reason I recommend against the purchase of black box trading systems without any knowledge of how these systems select their trades.

7. After you start trading, maintain records on how your trading. Be sure to write down the reason for initiating your trade, and the reason you exit. If you deviate from your strategy, state why, and how that deviant trade performed. In this way you will be able to keep track of what works for you and what does not.

Ultimately, you must approach trading like you would any other business or profession. It requires research, education and knowledge to succeed in this business. Many people fail, so do not assume that because you have some smarts that you can be successful. Successful trading requires careful planning, common sense, intestinal fortitude, and a little luck!

Pivot Point Trading- 7 Guidelines For Success

What do we mean by pivot point trading? It simply means that Forex traders take into account pivot points calculated from the previous day's trading range and use them as reference points to identify support and resistance levels.

Taking the high, low, close and open values of the previous day's price action, strategic levels can be identified which may or may not have an influence on price action. Pivot point trading puts emphasis on these levels, and uses them to guide entry and exit points for trades.

However, as with any technical indicator, there are limitations and pivot point trading, to be high probability, needs to stay within certain parameters. The following 7 guidelines can help pivot point trading be more profitable:

No. 1

Pivot points should not be used as a standalone indicator. Do not enter or exit trades purely on the basis of pivot points. Use them in conjunction with other indicators such as candle patterns, Fibonacci levels, MACD, and moving averages to identify and confirm key levels of support and resistance which may provide trading opportunities.

No. 2

While some traders living in various parts of the world may calculate their pivot points according to the time zone in which they live, a fairly safe standard for calculating the levels of pivot point trading is to use GMT (Greenwich Meantime).

Midnight GMT is a very quiet time in the market with very little volatility and provides a good opportunity to calculate more accurate pivot levels going from midnight GMT to midnight GMT the following day.

No. 3

It is good to understand what is going on behind the scenes when it comes to pivot point trading. Rather than just staring at candles on a chart, understand what they actually represent.

Thousands of traders around the world, some working for large institutions and handling millions or even billions of dollars worth of currency, are taking positions according to previously established highs and lows in the market.

Pivot points draw attention to these key levels which will often be strongly defended by traders who have a lot at stake. This is the reason pivot point trading can be so successful, once a trader understands underlying reasons for price action.

No. 4

It is good to calculate mid levels in addition to the S1, S2, R1, and R2 pivot levels. Sometimes there is a significant gap between these levels and calculating a mid point gives another point of reference. Price will often be seen respecting M1, M2, M3, or M4.

To calculate mid levels, simply subtract the level below from the level above and divide by 2. (see the resource box for a free pivot point calculator)

No. 5

Pivot point trading can be a useful strategy for entering and exiting trades at the right time. A pivot point can provide a key level of support or resistance where price is likely to bounce for a 10-20 pip profit.

Or in the case of a trend, price may retrace to a pivot level before continuing its run. The retracement point at the pivot level would be a good place to put an entry order to be taken in when price comes back to retest at the pivot level.

No. 6

The Euro - US dollar pair often puts in a daily average of between 75 and 100 pips. Watch for specific behavior around the time of the London market open. Price will often come back to test a level which is a pivot point and form a distinctive candle pattern such as tweezers, or a hanging man, and then reverse and go on its 75-100 pip run for the day.

If price comes back to the M1 level check your other indicators to see if they confirm this would be a good level to go long. Likewise, if price, just around London open, tests the M4 level, check your other indicators to see if this would be a good place to go short. You may be able to get a slice of the 75-100 pip run for the day.

No. 7

Pivot point trading helps mentally in establishing the buy zone and the sell zone. Traditionally, anything above the Central Pivot Point is a Sell area, and everything below the Central Pivot Point is a Buy area.

If you go contrary to that, make sure you double check your analysis and have very good reasons for doing otherwise.

Pivot point trading is just one of an arsenal of weapons available to Forex market participants. However, it must be stated that many successful traders use just a handful of tools that become their favorites. After all, too many indicators can lead to decision paralysis.

For many traders, pivot points are a key element in their overall trading strategy. Use the 7 guidelines above to use them safely and responsibly.

Foreign Currency Trading Tactics

I'm here to share with you a little about my foreign currency trading experiences and the tactics I learned from that. This market offers such an opportunity that is much more than monetary. The chance to tell your boss that you quit is one of the best feelings ever. Knowing you can make money from home, completely on your own skill. The ability to know you don't have to go out and pay outrageously high gas prices just to earn a living. This is by far the best decision I've ever made in my life, regarding my finances, and I highly recommend it to other people.

Since this is a business that relies on you and you alone, there needs to be somethings worked on. You don't have a boss to tell you what to do or to keep you in line, so you're your own boss. I suggest the first thing you try to accomplish is a routine. A routine will allow you to get the most work done without wearing yourself out. You need to try out somethings and learn a little, but your main goal is to figure out what is more important and incorporate it into a routine.

With that said, foreign currency trading isn't this complex and complicated task for making money. Don't allow yourself to build it up in your head as hard. It's often the simple tasks and strategies that will make you money over the long term. You need to focus on keeping it simple and everything will work out.

The Forex Tracer is a tool that can really simplify your working since it is an automated tool for finding good trades. You're not always in the position to watch over the market 24hrs a day and there is no reason for you to miss out on good trades. All traders use software, so you need to get some too.

Investing Money in Currency Trading Via the Internet

In the past, only the bigwigs in the business arena, central banks, and the larger banks in a country are the ones dominating the forex market. When the Internet came into the picture, the forex market has become much more accessible to individuals, who are interested in investing money in currency trading.

The Internet has truly changed the foreign exchange market totally. Now that one can invest in forex online, more and more people are learning about the business and about the many benefits it has over other equity-related businesses like the stock exchange.

The forex market has over $2 trillion dollars traded every day as compared to the New York Stock Exchange usual $50 billion. So you see, there is a tremendous potential in investing money in currency trading, this is why the volume of transactions is growing day to day across the world.

Foreign exchange is very flexible too, since it operates 24 hours a day, 5 days a week to cover all time zone issues that the may be during the forex transactions. One investor can indulge himself in the business at the most comfortable time for him, in case he is busy with so many other things he does for a living. One will not feel like he'll have to beat a deadline of sort when trading since he can always trade when he wants to.

Online forex sites that provide venues for investing money in currency trading, give assistance through the forex tools they have on the websites and the valuable information about the foreign exchange business.

These web sites or forex trading systems help a beginner become more familiar with the forex trading first before he actually buys or sells currencies. These online trading systems employ demo accounts that the user can use for a given period of time, during which he will invest using play money. This will allow the user to check if he can make it well at the forex without losing real money.

This is especially useful since beginners shouldn't dive drastically into the forex bandwagon without any prior knowledge.
