What is More Important in Forex than Making Money?

I haven't been able to make any progress monetarily in about a month. I'm up about 4% this month but breaking my account balance all-time high has been a struggle. I'm pretty much stuck where I was around this time last month. I'm not all that concerned and shouldn't be considering I was preaching patience a couple of days ago. It's just that every time I open my trading platform, the account balance is just staring me in the face.

It's more important that I progress as a risk-aversed trader. For newer traders, it's very important for you to understand that learning methods to control your risk should be a priority. Making gains monetarily is obviously important but making gains and strides elsewhere are more important. When I first started trading mostly with demo accounts, I had some unbelievably profitable trades but my strategies were random and my risk and leverage too high. A lot of this is just pure luck and not going to take you to the next level. Your account balance shouldn't be used as a guage for success. Some questions to ask yourself to guage your success may be:

Have you managed to minimize your risk and maximize your reward?

Have you maintained consistency?

Have you been able to control your emotions?

Have you developed a complete trading system that you've been able to follow without deviation?

If you haven't been profitable, have you at least been able to turn those gushing drawdowns into slow bleeders?

Safety of Funds with ForexGen

Maintaining the security of your money is a top priority at ForexGen. No Forex broker can truly guarantee the safety of a client’s Forex deposits. Therefore you should choose your Forex dealer after close consideration.

Quite often the best way to judge a firm’s financial integrity is by its reputation and the commitment it shows to its clients through its service and business decisions. Our devotion to our clients has made our firm a respected industry leader. Investors must be prudent in regard to where they hold their funds and it is vital to consider the integrity of the firm and its management when making one’s decision.

Quality Dealing Services

As a Forex trader, you don’t want your hard work to be undermined by substandard dealing desk staff. The ForexGen team of experienced dealers is dedicated to ensuring that your trades are executed in the most timely and accurate manner possible. Unlike some other Forex brokers, we will never execute a market order at a price other than one which you approve. In addition, our dealers will often execute your order at your original price even if the market has moved against you — another practice that sets ForexGen apart from the average broker.

The ForexGen dealing desk strives to provide its clients with some of the fairest and highest quality order execution in the market. Our dealing desk offers both online as well as phone based execution when necessary. Our dealing support team is available 24 hours a day to handle dealing related issues and disputes.

Market Orders
Market orders are created when a trader wants to open a position at the current market price. After the trader clicks on a price, he or she must confirm the price prior to execution. The price sent to the dealing desk will be the price shown in the confirmation window the moment the trader accepted the trade ForexGen will execute the trade in real-time if the available price is at or within a few pips of the requested price. Once the order is executed the opened position instantaneousely appears on the client’s trading platform.

If the market has moved and no price within a few pips of the requested price is available, the dealing desk will send the client a requote at the most current market price. The client can then either accept or reject the requote. Orders will never be executed at the new price without the client’s prior consent. This means that there is never slippage on market orders. Slippage is defined as the difference between the price approved by the client and the price at which the order is actually executed.

In an attempt to decrease the occurrence of requotes during fast moving markets and to help guarantee effective market entry during major jumps in market price, ForexGen has introduced a Trader’s Range feature in its VT Trader software. The Trader’s Range option allows clients to automatically approve requotes within a chosen range. For example, if Trader’s Range is set to 10, requotes within ten pips of the requested price will be processed without requiring the client’s confirmation. Please note that because orders placed by trading systems are classified as market orders, they are subject to requoting as per market order processing procedures.

Conditional Orders (stops, limits, entry stops and entry limits)
Conditional orders are triggered when the market price reaches the price specified in the order. When this happens, the client’s initial order is activated, requesting that the order be filled at the specified price. Under normal market conditions, ForexGen will honor the specified price on conditional orders of up to 100 mini or 10 standard lots. Larger orders as well as orders executed in extremely volatile markets will be executed at the next available quote if the market has passed over the requested price. This is known to occur over the weekend, when Sunday’s opening price is sometimes significantly different from Friday’s closing and during major market moves.

Many Forex dealers widen their spreads prior to a major market move, thus making market entry more difficult. As ForexGen offers fixed spreads, ensuring that you can always expect quality prices, we may limit the placement of new conditional orders to at least 35 pips away from the current market price for approximately 15 minutes before major news announcements. Under normal market conditions you may place conditional orders as close as 5 pips from the market price.

Trade for a Living with ForexGen

So you Want To Trade for a Living

I always enjoy Brett's books on trading psychology. While impressed by his ongoing sharing about this important subject, I emailed him recently to request an article for aspiring traders who want to trade for a living. This is not an easy feat, but it is not mission impossible. Trading the financial markets is basically trading your belief on the financial markets. It takes a disciplined mindset, proper money management and a good trading system to trade profitably. Most workshops teach you the technical skills, but rarely touch deeply on the subject of trading psychology. Therefore, I recommend you to read "Enhancing Trader Performance" by Brett N. Steenbarger to develope cutting edge of trading psychology. Below is an article he approved to publish at FX Operator:

I receive quite a few emails from aspiring full-time traders. Some hope to land positions with trading firms; others are looking to make a living by trading independently. Here are a few considerations for those thinking of making the leap:

1. Make sure you're adequately capitalized - This is, in my experience, the achilles heel of most traders who aspire to make a career of their market participation. If you start with a capital base under $100,000, you have to make a huge annual return on your money year after year to sustain a decent living. That leads traders with small accounts to take outsized risks, and those risks are what eventually blow them up. As a relatively new trader, you'd do *very* well to make 20% on your money per year after costs. If you can't make an adequate living from 20% returns, you know you're undercapitalized.
2. If you're not adequately capitalized, focus on building a track record - It doesn't matter if you're trading small. If you can show consistent returns from your trading and sound money management, you'll have something to take to a proprietary trading firm to land a position. They will front you capital, and you can get your start in the business. If you don't have the track record, however, you'll find many doors closed. Motivation and a passion for trading don't substitute for experience and demonstrated skill.
3. Make sure you have a durable edge - Before you quit your day job and pursue trading, make sure you've traded in a variety of market conditions over a variety of market cycles. Look at it this way: if a person with a track record of a few months asked you to give him money to trade for your account, would you pony up? Probably not. For the same reasons, you should establish a sound track record with solid profitability and good risk management before you make the full-time leap. Make as many of your mistakes as possible *before* you go full time.
4. Make sure you have reserves - Just as many new businesses tread water their first year, many traders struggle to cover costs when they go "live". After all, to cover commission, equipment, and software costs alone requires a fair return on capital. You should have more than a year's worth of living expenses available as liquid capital before you go full time. A second income (your own or from a spouse) also helps tremendously. This will take pressure off your early performance and help you focus on making good trades, rather than making the rent money.

The bottom line is that starting a trading career truly is starting an entrepreneurial business. The same dynamics that lead to success in startup firms--from knowing your markets to having a solid plan to being well capitalized to executing on details--apply to aspiring traders. If you can approach trading with the mindset, work ethic, and creativity of a successful entrepreneur, you have a real shot. And that's what entrepreneurs live for.

What Drove the US Dollar to a Record Low

Those who may have hoped for a recovery in the US dollar have been sorely disappointed. The greenback hit a record low against the Euro and it will just be a matter of time before the EUR/USD hits 1.60. Before you know it, we’ll be talking about the possibility of one Euro being worth 2 US dollars. Although this may be far fetched, who would have thought that the Swiss franc would be worth more than a US dollar?

Although the once mighty greenback faces long term pressures such as a depressed labor market that is expected to deteriorate further and the strong possibility of another contraction in retail sales, the latest round of dollar weakness was actually triggered by the following:

1) News that Lehman Brothers liquidated 3 of its investment funds due to “market disruptions.”

2) Concerns that the usually stubborn ECB President will hold his ground on inflationary pressures, which he did. Eurozone interest rates remain at 6 year highs despite clear signs of slowing growth.

3) Strong Eurozone and UK Economic Data - French and Italian industrial production both beat expectations while the UK trade deficit narrowed.

The dollar continued to remain under pressure as the trade deficit increased in the month of February. Even though everyone was looking for the weaker dollar to help boost trade, I forecasted an increase in the deficit because the previous drop in the ISM manufacturing index told us that it would be weak (Forecasting News)

Jobless claims also dropped sharply but the improvement is primarily due to the Easter Calendar effect. I still expect claims for unemployment to rise especially since continuing claims remain at very high levels.

Not only is the US dollar trading at a record low against the Euro, but it also slipped below 7 Chinese Yuan. With this big psychological barrier breached, the G7’s criticism towards China’s currency regime will be limited.

Nothing has changed and if anything, ECB President Trichet has confirmed his hawkishness. US retail sales are due for release next week and with Linens ‘n Things joining Domain, Fortunoff, and Sharper Image in filing for bankruptcy protection, consumer spending will contract for another month. Crude oil and gasoline prices have also hit a record high which is going to hurt consumer spending further.

World Currency Watch

The ECB's and BOE's rate decisions puts more wind to the back of EUR/GBP!

The Eurozone and the U.K. economies continue to diverge.

For years and years, these two economies followed each other up and down in "lock step". Then the credit/sub-prime crisis hit. This pushed the U.K. economy lower as they experienced the same things that America experienced: Hedge fund blow ups, banks struggling, housing prices falling, etc.

On the other hand, many other European banks didn't have as much exposure to "sub-prime" as did the "financial epicenter", the U.K.

So as these economies "de-linked" and continue to diverge, it's produced a heck of an uptrend in the EUR/GBP pair. Click on the chart to enlarge it below.

Automated Forex Trading - More Trades

This article is part of my ongoing evaluation of ForexGen’s Forex System Selector, a web based automated trading tool that allows the user to select one or more trading systems, and have them automatically traded against an account.

This is running against a one month demo account, which is funded with $100,000. Previous articles have given an overview of the product and the first trades. This article provides an update on trading performance to date.

In terms of the operational smoothness of the system, I can report that it continues to operate flawlessly. I am taking note of this because I have tried several other products that were unstable and continually lost server connectivity. The fact that this product is web based, and on ForexGen’s own server means that connectivity to ForexGen’s quotes and trade execution engine is well controlled.

The trading performance to date is fairly disappointing, but not entirely unexpected. In previous postings, I noted that the performance of the trading models will make or break this product. I believe that I have chosen some of the best and most conservative models, but to date (in the last weeks), one model (which has been responsible for all 4 trades) has lost 116 pips, which is around 2.3% of the trading capital.

One trade, which uses a different model is currently open, and is down around 22 pips at present on the CHF/JPY pair (long)

A Simple Introduction to Forex Trading

Short for Foreign (currency) Exchange, Forex is the world’s biggest market for trading in currencies. As much as 2 trillion US dollars worth of currency are traded on the Forex on a daily basis. Compare this with the approximately 25 million US dollars traded on the NYSE and you’ll get the picture - Forex is huge.

So what is Forex all about? Simply put, Forex entails buying one currency, let’s say Turkish Lira, and selling another, say US Dollars. In Forex, currencies are always traded and quoted in pairs. The exchange is made through a broker.

Just like the stock market where you are investing in a company, with Forex you are in a way investing in a country. If your company is a success, the value of your stock goes up. Much the same principle is at work in Forex. If the economy of the country whose currency you are trading is robust, the value of that currency will also go up - and you can then sell it for a profit.

Unlike stock markets, there is no “trading pit” in the world of Forex. Forex operates through the internet and other electronic communications and runs 24 hours a day, 5 days a week.

It has only been in the last several years that the Forex has been open to the average person to invest in. The Forex market itself has been around since 1971, but for most of its history only large companies and a few very wealthy individuals possessed the resources to be able to trade in foreign currency. Today however, anyone with a high speed internet connection and a small initial investment (as low as 50 US dollars) can get in on the Forex market.

The seven most commonly traded currencies on the Forex market are U.S. Dollars (USD), Euros (EUR), Japanese Yen (JPY), UK Pounds (GBP), Swiss Francs (CHF), Canadian Dollars (CAD) and Australian Dollars (AUD). Foreign currencies are identified by means of a three letter code. The first two letters stand for the country, while the last letter identifies the nation in question’s currency.

For example:-
USD: U.S. = United States, D = Dollars.
GBP: GB = United Kingdom (Great Britain), P = Pounds.

At any given time, business is going on somewhere in the world. Global business never sleeps, and neither does Forex. This can be beneficial to you - you can trade on the Forex market any time that is convenient to you.

There are seven currencies on the Forex which are called Major Currencies, due to their being the most heavily traded currencies on the market. The biggest four are, in order: U.S. Dollars (USD), Euros (EUR), Japanese Yen (JPY), and UK Pounds (GBP). The remaining three are Swiss Francs (CHF), Canadian Dollars (CAD) and Australian Dollars (AUD).

Advantages Of Forex Trading

There are a few advantages which the Forex trader enjoys which those who trade in the stock market do not.

1.Unlike with stock brokers, the investor does not pay commissions, per se, to the broker. Instead, the dealers in Forex trading receive part of the “spread” (that is to say, the difference) between the buying and selling price of currency. This is generally a very small amount per trade; a fraction of a percent.

2.You can trade on the Forex market any time which is convenient for you, unlike the stock market - it is closed only on weekends, from 5pm Eastern time on Fridays to 12AM on Mondays.

3.As opposed to the stock market, it is nearly impossible for companies or individual investors to manipulate the Forex market. The volume of Forex trading each and every day prevents any one actor from having undue influence. We all know of instances of the stock market being artificially influenced by unscrupulous persons and companies however.

4.Forex trading can be done with borrowed capital, meaning that you need not have hundreds of thousands in liquid assets to trade currency in large numbers. This concept is called Margin Trading. A small amount of your own capital (less than 5 percent) can be used to leverage a large chunk of borrowed assets, which may then be invested. Forex is traded in what is called lots, the normal size of a lot being 100,000 US dollars. Depending on the dealer with whom you deal you may be able to trade is smaller amounts, these are known as mini-lots or micro-lots.

Developing a Forex Strategy with ForexGen

A fool-proof trading strategy can help you gain profit from day one in the Forex market. If you spend some time to study the market you will find some price patterns that recur consistently.

You can substantiate your observations with charts or graphs using a strategy builder software and then finally develop a strategy unique for your trading habits.

So developing a sound and effective trading strategy is the important foundation of the trading. You must develop working knowledge of technical analysis as well as knowledge of some of the more popular technical studies before deciding which is going to be the best strategy for you.

A trading strategy should optimize your risk with respect to the reward, or vise versa. It should have a disciplined method of limiting the risk and make the most out of favorable market moves.

Using Technical Analysis to Build your own Forex Strategy

Technical analysis can supplement your trading strategy. Many professionals for example make use of moving averages along with other indicators. This method has an element of risk control (built-in) – where a long position will be stopped out fairly quickly in a falling market generating a stop-and-reverse signal or a sell signal in a rising market

At the initial stage you should rely on a logical system in having a view of the market. Discipline will be the keyword for establishing yourself as a successful trader. Your trading decisions should not be based on irrational emotions where you continue to experience losses with the hope of regaining the position. Your ability to limit your losses is just as important as determining the entry points.
