Currency Trading Basics in forex trading
To learn forex basics you will need to
book onto one of these courses, and in a moment we will show you how you can
have the course paid for by being clever about when you attend.
It is vital that you begin with a course
that teaches forex trading basics, as there is nothing worse than finding
yourself on the wrong course and out of your depth from the beginning.
Basic level courses tend to be billed as
"learn to trade the stock market". Most people have never heard of
forex, but everyone's heard of the stock market, hence the education companies
focus their basic trading courses on stock trading. Remember, most of the
principles are identical, and at the end of a stock trading course you will be
just as able to trade forex as anything else and will also have learned the
vital skill of trading money management.
Even for these basic level weekend
courses the education companies will charge you a couple of thousand, and
although they do usually offer to let you bring a partner or friend along for
free, even still it's expensive
- but what if you could have it paid for?
Forex Signals services enable even the
novice trader to trade profitably almost straight away. Our suggestion if you're
on a tight budget (and we wish we'd done it this way around ourselves) is to
proceed as follows;
Select a broker
Attend / view online the broker's free
forex training tutorials so that you know how to place and manage trades
Subscribe to a full-service forex signals
provider and 2 - 3 other signals services (around USD $100 per month each - but
should quickly pay for themselves)
Purchase a few forex robots (one off cost
of around $100 each - but should also pay for themselves quickly)
Test the signals and robots on your
broker's demo account, to make sure they're profitable, or make adjustments
until they are. Once you're happy, trade them on your live account and starting
reaping in the profits.
Then use the profits you make from
trading signals and robots to pay for your forex course - effectively giving
you free forex training.
Thereafter either continue to trade the
signals and robots, or develop your own educated trading style aided by the
prompts from the signals and robots. Hence your forex training is paid for and
you get the best of all worlds.
Subscribing to a full-service signal
provider from the outset really is forex made easy and has the added advantage
of giving you daily access to an expert trader's screen and a regular forex
trading tutorial on what he's doing. Hence you will have already seen in
practice many of the concepts which you will then learn in depth on your forex
course, which will hopefully make learning forex much easier for you.
After you've been through your forex
trading education, you will have new skills, but you must be aware that you
will still lack experience. The worst thing to do with your new skills would be
to ruin your own confidence in them by immediately trading a string of losing
trades. Therefore we recommend that you subscribe to a full-service forex
signals provider straight away if you have not already done so, so that right
from the outset you are trading alongside your own personal forex consultant.
Think of it like when you learnt to ride
a bike - you used training wheels first didn't you ? Only when you had your
balance and had learned to fully control the bike did you ride off on your own.
Your trading should be no different. Don't expect to be a profitable expert
trader after just 3 days or even a week in a classroom learning forex trading.
It's important not to think of signals as
extra cost - quite the opposite, they're a way of keeping loss-making trades to
a minimum and optimising your profits.
