Guide In Forex Market

Forex trading, also known under the names of Foreign exchange or FX market is the widest currency market in the world, with transactions summing more than one and a half million dollars every day. Regarding the "location" of the Forex trading market, it should be mentioned that it is an actual over-the-counter market, since trades are conducted between two counterparts. Forex trading works quite fast and can be easily operated, plus, it implies no fees and no commissions, so traders are welcomed to operate as often as they want. There are the traders who are basically following the economical aspects and who pay a lot of attention to the economical trends of the moments. On the other hand, there are the technical traders, who operate regarding various mathematically-based charts and analysis that help them identify the surest ways to the desired profits. You can select your pair of currencies and your amount whether the market is moving up or moving down - and still make a profit. You can decide to buy Euro and sell dollar or buy dollar and sell Euro. Additionally, it is not necessary that physically have the currency in hand that you choose to buy and sell. The quickest and by far easiest way to get started is to find a Forex market site, open an account, deposit your money, and then just start trading. Most reputable companies will provide you with training, support, and advice to help you get started. Trading online necessarily requires you to have the best computer. You need no install all the hardware. For example you will not need a DVD writer to trade online. But there are a few things that you must not compromise on. First have a wide screen monitor. This helps you to see the maximum amount of data at one point of time. Or you will need to minimize and maximize the windows. Next we come to the processor. A decent level processor should be good enough. Anything upwards of 2 GHz will work.


What you will need is speed and that will be provided by the RAM you have. Nothing less than 1 GB will do. Ideally it should be 2 GB or more. The hard disk should also have plenty of space. Go for at least 100 GB of HDD space. And try to keep the HDD as free as possible and don't run too many programs at a time, definitely not while trading. A video card will allow you to get the best live feeds. Now more people are involved in trading than ever before. And the reasons are quite apparent. One does not need to leave his house to do trading. There is no paperwork to be handled. One can trade at anytime of the day, whenever he is free and feels like. And one need not bother about what his broker is offering and how much commission he is charging.

How To Start Trading The Forex Market Part 4

How Currencies are quoted and what moves individual currencies? ONE of the best advantages in FOREX Trading is The amount of money you need to place a trade (known as "margin") is all that can be lost ! You have to know, that despite the super-high leverage offered by some Forex brokers up to (400:1); meaning if you put up $ 1000 the broker will allow you to trade like you really have $400.000). Forex trading is still less riskier than Stock or Futures Trading, where you can loose more than you have deposited in your account.

Is It Safe To Invest In Shares Or The Forex

You feel yourself financially able and personally qualified to invest. You can meet the conditions of reasonable stability, reasonable flexibility, and reasonable caution. But nagging doubt remains. Wouldn't you really be better off with your extra cash in a savings account? Or a piece of real estate? In short, is it really safe to invest? Well, how much safety do you require? Since there are no absolutely sure things anywhere, safety must be looked at as a matter of degree. There are no guarantees of success in stock ownership, no guarantees against loss. Even the thoughtful, conscientious investor can be taken to the cleaners. It should be remembered, however, that investment in stocks is a way of sharing in the profit potential of American industry. Is the American economy safe? It seems to be. Since 1900 it has been rising in productivity at an average rate of 4 per cent per year. Our Gross National Product is now nearly $480 billion.

Forex Exiting Positions At A Right Time

The presented article covers one of the most important (in author’s opinion) aspects of trading in general and FOREX trading in particular – managing of orders and positions. This includes choosing entry points, making decisions about exit points, stop-loss and take-profit of the trader. I hope this article will help new traders, who just began to work with FOREX, and also to experienced traders who trade regularly and regularly make or loose their money to the market.

While the right time to enter a position was rarely a problem for myself (nearly 80% of all my open positions had gone into the “green” profit zone), the problem was hidden in the determining the right exit point for that position. Not only was it important to cut my risk on the potential losses with stop-loss orders, but to limit my greediness and take profit when I can take...
