How to Profit Trading Forex
In the FX market, you buy or sell currencies. Placing a trade in the foreign exchange market is simple: the mechanics of a trade are very similar to those found in other markets (like the stock market), so if you have any experience in trading, you should be able to pick it up pretty quickly.
*EUR 10,000 x 1.18 = US $11,800
The object of Forex trading is to exchange one currency for another in the expectation that the price will change, so that the currency you bought will increase in value compared to the one you sold.
Example of making money by buying euros
| Trader's Action | EUR | USD |
| You purchase 10,000 euros at the EUR/USD exchange rate of 1.18 | +10,000 | -11,800* |
| Two weeks later, you exchange your 10,000 euros back into US dollars at the exchange rate of 1.2500. | -10,000 | +12,500** |
| You earn a profit of $700. | 0 | +700 |
*EUR 10,000 x 1.18 = US $11,800
** EUR 10,000 x 1.25 = US $12,500
An exchange rate is simply the ratio of one currency valued against another currency. For example, the USD/CHF exchange rate indicates how many U.S. dollars can purchase one Swiss franc, or how many Swiss francs you need to buy one U.S. dollar.
How to Read an FX Quote
Currencies are always quoted in pairs, such as GBP/USD or USD/JPY. The reason they are quoted in pairs is because in every foreign exchange transaction you are simultaneously buying one currency and selling another. Here is an example of a foreign exchange rate for the British pound versus the U.S. dollar:
GBP/USD = 1.7500
The first listed currency to the left of the slash ("/") is known as the base currency (in this example, the British pound), while the second one on the right is called the counter or quote currency (in this example, the U.S. dollar).
When buying, the exchange rate tells you how much you have to pay in units of the quote currency to buy one unit of the base currency. In the example above, you have to pay 1.7500 U.S. dollar to buy 1 British pound.
When selling, the exchange rate tells you how many units of the quote currency you get for selling one unit of the base currency. In the example above, you will receive 1.7500 U.S. dollars when you sell 1 British pound.
The base currency is the “basis” for the buy or the sell. If you buy EUR/USD this simply means that you are buying the base currency and simultaneously selling the quote currency.
You would buy the pair if you believe the base currency will appreciate (go up) relative to the quote currency. You would sell the pair if you think the base currency will depreciate (go down) relative to the quote currency.
Long/Short
First, you should determine whether you want to buy or sell.
If you want to buy (which actually means buy the base currency and sell the quote currency), you want the base currency to rise in value and then you would sell it back at a higher price. In trader's talk, this is called "going long" or taking a "long position". Just remember: long = buy.
If you want to sell (which actually means sell the base currency and buy the quote currency), you want the base currency to fall in value and then you would buy it back at a lower price. This is called "going short" or taking a "short position". Short = sell.
Bid/Ask Spread
All Forex quotes include a two-way price, the bid and ask. The bid is always lower than the ask price.
The bid is the price in which the dealer is willing to buy the base currency in exchange for the quote currency. This means the bid is the price at which you (as the trader) will sell.
The ask is the price at which the dealer will sell the base currency in exchange for the quote currency. This means the ask is the price at which you will buy.
The difference between the bid and the ask price is popularly known as the spread.
Let's take a look at an example of a price quote taken from a trading platform:
On this GBP/USD quote, the bid price is 1.7445 and the ask price is 1.7449. Look at how this broker makes it so easy for you to trade away your money.
If you want to sell GBP, you click "Sell" and you will sell pounds at 1.7445. If you want to buy GBP, you click "Buy" and you will buy pounds at 1.7449.
In the following examples, we're going to use fundamental analysis to help us decide whether to buy or sell a specific currency pair. If you always fell asleep during your economics class or just flat out skipped economics class, don’t worry! We will cover fundamental analysis in a later lesson. For right now, try to pretend you know what’s going on…
EUR/USD
In this example Euro is the base currency and thus the “basis” for the buy/sell.
If you believe that the US economy will continue to weaken, which is bad for the US dollar, you would execute a BUY EUR/USD order. By doing so you have bought euros in the expectation that they will rise versus the US dollar.
If you believe that the US economy is strong and the euro will weaken against the US dollar you would execute a SELL EUR/USD order. By doing so you have sold Euros in the expectation that they will fall versus the US dollar.
USD/JPY
In this example the US dollar is the base currency and thus the “basis” for the buy/sell.
If you think that the Japanese government is going to weaken the Yen in order to help its export industry, you would execute a BUY USD/JPY order. By doing so you have bought U.S dollars in the expectation that they will rise versus the Japanese yen.
If you believe that Japanese investors are pulling money out of U.S. financial markets and converting all their U.S. dollars back to Yen, and this will hurt the US dollar, you would execute a SELL USD/JPY order. By doing so you have sold U.S dollars in the expectation that they will depreciate against the Japanese yen.
GBP/USD
In this example the GBP is the base currency and thus the “basis” for the buy/sell.
If you think the British economy will continue to do better than the United States in terms of economic growth, you would execute a BUY GBP/USD order. By doing so you have bought pounds in the expectation that they will rise versus the US dollar.
If you believe the British's economy is slowing while the United State's economy remains strong like bull, you would execute a SELL GBP/USD order. By doing so you have sold pounds in the expectation that they will depreciate against the US dollar.
USD/CHF
In this example the USD is the base currency and thus the “basis” for the buy/sell.
If you think the Swiss franc is overvalued, you would execute a BUY USD/CHF order. By doing so you have bought US dollars in the expectation that they will appreciate versus the Swiss Franc.
If you believe that the US housing market bubble burst will hurt future economic growth, which will weaken the dollar, you would execute a SELL USD/CHF order. By doing so you have sold US dollars in the expectation that they will depreciate against the Swiss franc.
I don't have enough money to buy 10,000 euros. Can I still trade?
You can with margin trading! Margin trading is simply the term used for trading with borrowed capital. This is how you're able to open $10,000 or $100,000 positions with as little as $50 or $1,000. You can conduct relatively large transactions, very quickly and cheaply, with a small amount of initial capital.
Margin trading in the foreign exchange market is quantified in “lots”. We will be discussing these in depth in our next lesson. For now, just think of the term "lot" as the minimum amount of currency you have to buy. When you go to the grocery store and want to buy an egg, you can't just buy a single egg; they come in dozens or "lots" of 12. In Forex, it would be just as foolish to buy or sell 1 euro, so they usually come in "lots" of 10,000 (Mini) or 100,000 (Standard) depending on the type of account you have.
For Example:
- You believe that signals in the market are indicating that the British Pound will go up against the US dollar.
- You open one lot (100,000), buying with the British pound at 1% margin and wait for the exchange rate to climb. When you buy one lot (100,000) of GBP/USD at a price of 1.5000, you are buying 100,000 pounds, which is worth US$150,000 (100,000 units of GBP * 1.50 (exchange rate with USD)). If the margin requirement was 1%, then US$1500 would be set aside in your account to open up the trade (US$150,000 * 1%). You now control 100,000 pounds with US$1500. Your predictions come true and you decide to sell.
- You close the position at 1.5050. You earn 50 pips or about $500. (A pip is the smallest price movement available in a currency).
| Your Actions | GBP | USD |
| You buy 100,000 pounds at the GBP/USD exchange rate of 1.5000 | +100,000 | -150,000 |
| You blink for two seconds and the GBP/USD exchange rate rises to 1.5050 and you sell. | -100,000 | +150,500** |
| You have earned a profit of $500. | 0 | +500 |
When you decide to close a position, the deposit that you originally made is returned to you and a calculation of your profits or losses is done. This profit or loss is then credited to your account.
We will also be discussing margin more in-depth in the next lesson, but hopefully you're able to get a basic idea of how margin works.
Rollover
No, this is not the same as rollover minutes from your cell phone carrier! For positions open at your broker's "cut-off time" usually 5pm EST, there is a daily rollover interest rate that a trader either pays or earns, depending on your established margin and position in the market. If you do not want to earn or pay interest on your positions, simply make sure they are all closed before 5pm EST, the established end of the market day.
Since every currency trade involves borrowing one currency to buy another, interest rollover charges are part of forex trading. Interest is paid on the currency that is borrowed, and earned on the one that is bought. If a client is buying a currency with a higher interest rate than the one he/she is borrowing, the net differential will be positive (i.e. USD/JPY) - and the client will earn funds as a result. Ask your broker or dealer about specific details regarding rollover.
Also note that many retail brokers do adjust their rollover rates based on different factors (e.g., account leverage, interbank lending rates). Please check with your broker for more information on rollover rates and crediting/debiting procedures.
Don't know what the interest rates are for each currency? Here is a chart to help you out. Accurate as of 04/19/09.
Demo Trading
You can open a demo account for free with most Forex brokers. This account has the full capabilities of a "real" account. Why is it free? It's because the broker wants you to learn the ins and outs of their trading platform, and have a good time trading without risk, so you'll fall in love with them and deposit real money. The demo account allows you to learn about the Forex markets and test your trading skills with ZERO risk.
YOU SHOULD DEMO TRADE FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT PUTTING REAL MONEY ON THE LINE.
I REPEAT - YOU SHOULD DEMO TRADE FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT PUTTING REAL MONEY ON THE LINE.
"Don't Lose Your Money" Declaration
Place your hand on your heart and say...
"I will demo trade for at least 6 months before I trade with real money."
Now touch your head with your index finger and say...
"I am a smart and patient Forex trader!"

Significant Decline of Australian Dollar This Week
The Australian dollar experienced the significant losses this week on the concerns for the new mining tax, which, while eased somewhat, didn’t go away completely.
The Aussie was falling against the U.S. dollar for the whole week, except for the Thursday, and ended noticeably lower than the opening level. Against the euro, the Australian currency has rose on Monday, but for the rest of the week it was steadily falling. The Australian dollar was also falling versus the Japanese currency this week, yet on Friday it demonstrated the small gains.
The mood among the traders somewhat brightened after the Australian government agreed to rethink the mining tax. But the new proposal definitely doesn’t look satisfying to all investors.
AUD/USD closed at 0.8425 after opening at 0.8742 and reaching its lowest weekly level of 0.8316. EUR/AUD closed at 1.4890 after it opened at 1.4157 and its the highest level this week of 1.4941. AUD/JPY closed at 73.95 after opening at 78.07 and reaching the lowest level in the week of 72.67.
If you want to comment on the Australian dollar’s recent action or have any questions regarding this currency, please, feel free to reply below.

Why Do Most Traders Fail To Make Money Currency Trading?
Author: Jovan Vucetic
Learn what it takes to make money currency trading in the long-term...
Based on reliable statistics, it is thought that approximately 90% of retail traders fail to make money currency trading. This is a scary thought for someone wanting to start out as a forex trader. Yet new people are attracted to forex trading every day and it obvious as to the reasons why.
Forex trading offers leverage benefits whereby a small margin deposit can control a much larger total contract. These days getting started in currency trading doesn't cost much either. Some Forex firms now offer 'mini' trading accounts with a minimum account deposit of only $200 with no commission trading, making forex trading much more accessible to the average individual. Forex trading offers the ability to make money trading currency pairs either 'up' or 'down', so a trader can profit either by going long or short, therefore there is never really a bear market in forex: the ultimate recession proof business.
Yet statistics tell us that things aren't quite so easy. The main reason why traders fail to make money is that they lose early on and then struggle to turn it around. They trade without a system or without a plan. Even worse, they neglect rules of money management. People attracted to forex trading are generally very intelligent and bright people yet they make basic mistakes, trade on emotion and quite often even though they realize their mistakes, by the time they do it is often too late, they lose interest or give up.
If your forex trading strategy is based on a well thought out business system and strategy, you will make money currency trading in the long-term. Forex trading, more than any other business venture is about being professional. If you want to make money currency trading, you must realise that as an individual, you are competing against institutions which specialize in forex trading. They have armies of analysts and economists and traders who do fundamental analysis, technical analysis and quantitative analysis for them. They have risk analysts, risk managers, portfolio supervisors - all contributing to their efforts and their profits. You, as an individual trader do not have this luxury.
In the forex market information is money. Good information and good online forex trading systems are important. Good trading systems are the ones which focus on risk management; are suited to the individual; serve ultimately the purpose of helping you develop your own trading system and finally are simple to understand thus making them easier to follow & implement with discipline.

Online FOREX Trading - If You Want To Win Understand Price Momentum
If you want to win at online FOREX Trading you need to understand the importance of price momentum in putting the odds on your side.
If you don't understand price momentum you will lose.
Let's look at why it is so important and how to put the odds in your favor.
A common error
Most traders like to trade in the following way in online FOREX trading.
They like to buy into support and sell into resistance but they don't pay attention to price momentum.
They hope resistance and support hold as they enter their positions and this is a recipe for disaster.
Why?
Well keep in mind this well known phrase.
A trend moving in one direction is more likely to continue than reverse.
So if prices are moving strongly to test support and resistance and price momentum is strong these levels can and do give way.
WAIT FOR CONFIRMATION!
A better way to trade is to use support and resistance and wait for them to hold before trading against these levels.
The odds will be vastly increased, as you will be looking for resistance and support to hold before taking your position and seeing price momentum weaken as the levels are tested.
This increases the odds of success for you and allows you to trade with price momentum on your side.
You won't get in at such a good level as if you predicted correctly without using momentum, but as you can't predict where price will go anyway always:
Wait for confirmation of a momentum change and your trade is more likely to be successful.
What indicators should I use?
By far and away the best indicator to use is the stochastic indicator.
We don't have time to explain it in detail here, so simply read our articles.
The best set up you can get is:
For the stochastic lines to reverse and cross with either bullish or bearish divergence as the price tests support or resistance.
This will show price momentum changing and falling as the test is made, allowing you to enter a trade with momentum on your side, increasing your chances of success.
Another useful indicator to use is:
The Relative Strength Index RSI devised by Wells Wilder.
Again, if you don't know how it works read our other articles.
Watch it to turn down as support or resistance are tested.
Get the odds on your side
The above two indicators are great for helping you judge price momentum and decide if support or resistance are going to hold.
Support and resistance levels give way frequently, but get price momentum on your side before trading and you will dramatically increase your chances of success.
Remember:
To increase your chances of success trade with price momentum on your side, the trend is your friend as the old saying goes - Act on price confirmation and don't PREDICT.
If you don't understand price momentum you will lose.
Let's look at why it is so important and how to put the odds in your favor.

The forex fair is mostly a pedantic shop with its own rapport and processes so it is important you sense the basics with an online forex interchange learning.
Why Online Forex Trading Education?Most nationality who want to try forex trading are often busy with another of life to take care of. They probably do not have the time to apply your mind a sequence on swapping. Therefore, an online swap training is more suited.

There are also free forex exchange seminars online available plus higher transaction courses online such as the forexmentor program. While it’s usually not free, the charges are satisfactorily cheap compared to attending a forex substitution curriculum in a classroom.
Another important part of an online interchange education is repetition. I believe no matter how well you understand forex trading or if you tally an A in a forex swap module, the real deal comes when you essentially start transaction.Most interchange sites provides a demo account for new beginners to tradeoff to hit the books how to boss their forex substitution account.

Forex Trading is the greatest home- business likely offered currently, and it could be even in story. Let me show you why.
We just want to be unmistakable about who this thing is person printed for. Anyone looking to lead a home based business, or line of business, without risking a lot of dosh, but who is inclined to put in the time necessitous to realize his or her goals.
Forex Trading vs. Real Estate
One of the more widely held home business is real business park.
Let's take a look at some of the more disagreeable parts of the real park business.
Real Estate:
Amount of Money Needed to Begin:
Regardless of what the infomercials have to say, it costs a unlimited deal of ready cash to get into the real fortune business. Even the "No Money Down" systems bare you to an amazing total of risk.
Whether you put coins down or not, you are liable to pay for the "product" you are .
If you are impotent to find a way to products revenue from your stock quickly, you will be a mortgage disbursement. It only takes a few of mortgage payments to turn "No Money Down", to "Some Money Down", to "No Money Left".
Amount of Time Needed to Begin:
Another lie constant on infomercial after infomercial is that it only takes a few hours a week to activate making big bucks in the real property business.
We don't want to converse in for everybody else, but whom do they suppose they are kidding. So, let me get this perpendicular...
? looking for a home online
? oral communication to a
? influential around your region
? dialogue to a mortgage specialist
? and all of the other things you have to do on EACH AND EVERY HOUSE
All of , combined, will only take me a few a week?
We agree we are to see why such a outsized majority of home based businesses fail. It's misleading to believe a halfhearted attempt will lead to success story.
Amount of Knowledge Needed to Begin:
In instruction to succeed in the real area business you have to obtain a plethora of familiarity. How do you comparatively value a home? How long will it take to fix, and sell, a home? How much must logs cost? How long does it take to appoint a sink?
Those are the meek questions. Zoning laws, agreement laws, and tax laws are just some of the more complicated that you'll need to get the picture.
The fact is, we can keep on writing about the realization you need for days. Obviously, in lodge for you to succeed in real domain you need a assets of evidence.
Amount of People Needed to Begin:
Unless you are completely wonted with all aspects of the real worth business already, you will run into one of a few snags:
1. The aggregate of time it would take you to become aware with all sides of real assets.
2. The volume of earnings it would cost you to FAIL at the real land business.
3. Most likely, the expanse of change it would cost you to build a team of people who are agreeable to "share" data with you.
Experts don't come cheap, and without them you are weak. In our belief, this is one of the greatest shortcomings of the real parkland business.
Your attainment, finally, lies in the of others. We can't weight this enough...you economic future is dependant on the execution of a complete visitor.
Forex Trading;
Amount of Money Needed to Begin:
Nothing. Zero. Zilch. Nada. $0.
If done right, you had better not risk any capital when erudition to profession the Forex. Again, we guess it's only fair for us to illuminate. Without getting too technical, we want you to be with you one very key feature.
Whether you are swap with $1,000,000 or $0, the figures and technology on hand to you is identical. You can get your hands on the skills and gen indispensable free.
Not only is this uncommon in relationship to other home business, it's also distinctive in relation to other swapping markets (There will be an thorough piece explaining the assistance of the Forex vs. any of the other ).
Amount of Time Needed to Begin:
Before diving into the answer, specifically, we weigh up it's chief that you comprehend additional concept matchless to the Forex. Twenty-four hours a day tradeoff. That's right, Forex markets are substitution 24 a day, from Sunday night to Friday p.m..
How does this help in answering the inquiry at hand, how much time is to instigate Forex swap?
As we've past, in fraternity to start into the real estate business requires a main commitment of time. Most of which has to go down between 9 AM and 5 PM. The fact is, you can't say to a realtor at 3 AM. Everything you do has to be around big cheese else's schedule. That income that 40 of work take you 4 .
Those same 40 hours, while scholarship Forex Trading, influence only take you 2 weeks. All you need is a computer and an internet piecing together. In count, since there is substantially less needed to cram in purchase to succeed at Forex Trading, 40 of work will put you much to accomplishment then it would in real country estate.
Amount of Knowledge Needed to Begin:
As a Forex trader you only need to buy the knowledge that will be needed for you to make currency trading.
Why does this matter?
Let me answer this with an case. Why do my flowers need sea? Actually, we don't know. To be more careful, none of us actually cares. However, we do know that if we don't water them, they die. That fact solitary me enough brains to marine my undergrowth.
This concept holds true in the Forex . With all of the tidings to be had global, it's easy to get caught up in the non-notable factors. Like, why do my plant life need aquatic? However, all you need to know are the meticulous steps to take in categorization to succeed. Like, river your foliage.
This severely limits the extent of time you must invest in education to skill the Forex.
Amount of People Needed to Begin:
Well, to attempt Forex interchange takes only you. To succeed at Forex transaction takes you and an mentor. Combining these two pieces one of the around.
Imagine demanding to learn 2 + 2 = 4 without the guidance of a educator. None of us would ever scope this clear-cut vassal if left alone. In fact, we wouldn't be able to communicate at all without the examples set into view to us by our parents.
Our entire lives are formed by the class of the education and guidance we are provided. This true in Forex Trading.
With an choice Forex Trading Course, you are on the path to efficacious Forex exchange.
Ultimately, YOU agree your triumph. However, the right foundation and current support will put all the odds in your good turn.
