Advantages To Foreign Currency Trading

Do you want to get into foreign currency trading, but aren’t sure how it can benefit you? There are many advantages to foreign currency trading. First, in the last few years, the spread rates have tightened a lot. Most of the online FOREX brokers today will offer you a five pips spread on EUR/USD. This is the most widely traded currency pair.

What Forex Taught Me

In my 1 year of trading forex I have learnt a lot about forex. There are some qualities that is needed in a traders. From my experience these are some of them:
1. No Ego
Ego is when you dont want to admit that you have made a mistake. In forex, mistakes are common. It is very hard to forecast something that has a lot of factors involve. If you have made a mistake, admit it and turn your position if you see fit. If you dont want to admit your mistakes, you will end up broke

2. The Future is unknown
That is the truth the hard truth. Unless you can see the future like the movie next we are all the same. There are some people with skills that can forecast the movement of forex and make money but the truth is, its too high of a risk. Better to trade based on price action

Global Bank Regulators Likely to Strengthen Capital Standards Over Time

Global banking regulators are committed to strengthening capital requirements over time.

• The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision put out a press release yesterday providing colour on initiatives banking supervisors might undertake long term in response to the events of the last two years.

• We had highlighted most of these issues in a July 2008 report ("Bank capital ratios high but face pressure"), and do not believe that they have implications for share prices near term.

• The new capital requirements, if implemented, would lead to lower and more stable ROEs for the global banking system versus the pre-crisis model, in our view.

• The impact on Canadian banks is less clear as they already operate under stricter capital constraints than many of their global peers.

G20 rioters to hang banker effigies from lampposts as city staff are told to wear disguises

Thousands of City staff told to stay at home next week

Bankers told not to wear suits and 'dress down'

Additional 2,500 police deployed at cost of £10million

City workers are being urged to stay at home or to dress down during next week's G20 summit to avoid being targeted by anti-capitalist protesters.

Unprecedented measures are being put in place to prepare for thousands of demonstrators targeting the City and Canary Wharf.

About 3,000 anti-capitalist protesters are expected, with groups next Wednesday marching to the Bank of England, holding 'flashcamps' outside the European Climate Exchange in Bishopsgate, and marching on the US Embassy.

Demonstrators have vowed to hang effigies of bankers from lampposts along the protest route.

Banks have been warned to take extra security precautions to protect their staff after vandals attacked former RBS chief Sir Fred Goodwin's Edinburgh home.

Security specialists at Kroll, the risk consultancy, said high profile bankers were 'easy targets'. Companies linked to the financial crisis are taking extra security measures for prominent staff.

An extra 2,500 police, including riot units and intelligence officers, are being deployed at a cost of £10million to tackle any violence, while security consultants are giving firms constant updates on threat levels.

The demonstrations, as 20 world leaders meet at the ExCeL Centre in Docklands to discuss how to end the world recession, are expected to be the biggest in London this decade.

Demonstrators will target the ExCeL centre the next day. Banks, insurers, accountancy firms and brokerages have all circulated emails to staff with security instructions.

One warns: 'The front door is to be permanently locked during these two days.'

Face of the financial crisis: Sir Fred

The London Chamber of Commerce have warned businesses to take security precautions, including making sure staff carry ID, keep movement in and out of the offices to a minimum and cancelling all but essential meetings.

Colin Stanbridge, chief executive of the LCCI, said: 'There will be concern among businesses at the protests but the vast majority of firms will have robust security arrangements in place.'

The financial advisory group Bluefin, which employs 500 staff in London-has told employees not to go to its office in Mark Lane in the City unless absolutely necessary.

A spokesman for the bank UBS said: 'We are telling people to be cautious. If you have client meetings do you need to have them here?"

Chris Knight, professor of anthropology at the University of East London, is organising protests under the banner G20 Meltdown.

He said: 'We are going to be hanging a lot of people like Fred the Shred from lampposts and I can only say let's hope they are just effigies. If he winds us up any more I'm afraid there will be real bankers hanging from lampposts.'

Meanwhile, the group claiming responsibility for vandalising the former Royal Bank of Scotland chairman's home has threatened further action against 'criminal' bank bosses.

A statement claiming to be from the group responsible for damage at his £3million mansion warned of further attacks, saying: 'This is just the beginning.'

The threat sparked fears of a terror campaign against those blamed for the collapse in the financial system.

Security adviser Dai Davies, a former head of Scotland Yard's Royalty Protection squad, said: 'Risk assessments will have to be carried out by the police on individuals who are concerned about their safety. If there is cause for concern then appropriate advice will be given and pre put in place.

'The developments at Sir Fred Goodwin's home will almost certainly make some other high-profile bankers want to review their own private security arrangements.'

What Is Currency Trading?

Have you ever heard of currency trading? If not, would you like to know what it is? Currency trading is commonly called foreign exchange, Forex, or FX, for short. All the currency in the world has a value that is relative to the other currencies in the world. By currency trading, you are purchasing and selling large amounts of currency to leverage the shifts in relative value in order to make a profit.

Quoting Conventions In Currency Trading

In the currency trading market, currency trading is always done in pairs. Also, all trades are the result of the simultaneous buying of one currency and the selling of another currency. The “basis” for the buy or the sell is called the base currency. If it helps, you can think of the currency pair as an instrument that can be bought or sold.

In the maze of monetary policy

Simple rules to live by the Central Bank, destroyed. Ahead of us is waiting vague, politicized time

In a world that existed before the financial crisis, the Central Bank felt victorious. They coped with inflation and the sharp edges to smooth business cycles. They managed to organize a powerful brainstorm and develop a common way to achieve their goals, which was recently very accurately described member of the Committee on Monetary Policy Bank of England, David Blanchflauer as one tool - one goal. " The tool was a short-term interest rate, but a goal - price stability. Such minimalism meet the spirit of the times, calling for more freedom for business and less interference from the state. Continuing the growing ranks of financial markets to take into consideration in pricing risk and allocate credit efficiently. To adjust the market need, the central banks had only to turn the interest rate instrument. Yes, bankers are still interested in financial stability and high employment, but they successfully convince all around that this can be achieved through price stability, without political interference. The financial crisis, all turned upside down. It was assumed that the business cycle developed without shocks, but this has not stopped the world rolled into the deepest recession in the 1930's. Now the main threat to all life is considered to be no inflation and deflation, while interest rates in many countries, dangerously close to zero. In these circumstances, central banks do not leave, as set out in search of other improvised means to rectify the situation. In general, once a stable relationship of financial markets fell, so the Central Bank was forced to once again make decisions that were previously left to the private sector. When banks stopped trusting each other, they are from the lender of last resort have become the lenders of first instance. Now they are increasingly determining how lenders make money. Now that the reputation of the market much podmochena, the Central Bank will actively expand its supervisory powers. All this carries them into the political quagmire from which they have for years attempted to escape. Many of them are still hoping that once the crisis is over, they again take up his position apolitical technocrats, pulled the lever for single and looking for a single variable. Not in vain there? "When a question is an axiom of rationality and market efficiency, which was built all of the work over the past 15-20 years, you need to find another approach to monetary policy and regulation", - said Thomas Mayer, senior economist at Deutsche Bank.

Let's start with the most pressing issue: what tools to use the Central Bank to stimulate the economy in the near future? Before the crisis, most of them acted with the help of a short-term interest rate (usually overnight). In itself, this rate has on economic activity is much less influential than, say, the rate on 12-month corporate loan or a 30-year mortgages. However, the relationship between these rates and the official was strong enough to allow the Central Bank to influence the overall financial conditions and, accordingly, the whole economy. Such relationship is threatened gap even before the crisis, as the gap between savings rates across countries has reduced the dependence of long-term rates on short-term. In times of crisis, when lenders were afraid for the opportunity to return back my money, there dezyntegratsiya. Central banks have responded increase its lending operations, adding the types of loans and received support, as well as extending the period of time. Fed start lending to investment banks. The European Central Bank has guaranteed unlimited amounts for a period of six months instead of weeks. Some have gone further. For example, the Bank of Japan began to buy shares, and the Swiss National Bank has intervened in the foreign exchange market.

Even assuming that the worst is behind us, the crisis has not yet ended and most countries are still experiencing a recession. None Central now will not give up their emergency measures. On the contrary, some thinking about how to expand its arsenal. The Bank of Canada and the ECB's plan to direct purchase of government or corporate bonds to improve the quality of loans. According to officials, the banks will curtail their programs only after the crisis. The Fed, for example, the law should stop certain actions, when they would not be an acute need. The bank charges a penalty interest on some of its programs, so the borrower would return to the private market as soon as able. "Exit strategy should allow us to return to a more balanced and sustainable market economy", - said Donald Kohn, the Fed zam.predsedatelya. Mervyn King, chairman of the Bank of England, meanwhile said that the exit strategy will be dictated by the inflation rate, the banks should not support non-viable markets.

New goals

It is possible that the exit would be more difficult than it seems. The study, published by the IMF last year, there was a question of "How to look" normal "situation." "Already, no one expects that the market will return to its pre-crisis state. It is clear that prior to the August 2007 market spreads that take into account the credit risk and liquidity risk were too narrow, and now they are much wider than they should be. But with this and it is not clear where is the golden mean. " Once at the beginning of this decade, the Bank of Japan became the main supplier of credit overnight, interbank market simply atrophy. Now it is many times smaller than before. European banks are now heavily dependent on the U.S. Federal Reserve (offered in the swap arrangements with the local Central Bank) and of the ECB, which provides loans in the euro for 6 months.

If the recovery will be sluggish, the Central Bank will not hasten the abandonment of support for key markets, especially if it will oppose the business and politics. In 1942, the Fed agreed to curb the long-term interest rates to help the Ministry of Finance find the money for military purposes, and only in 1951, these measures were discontinued. When the time come to sell holdings of mortgage bonds, the Central Bank may face opposition from politicians and lobby the housing market. Central Bank have to rethink not only their instruments, but also a goal. Banks and government have agreed that the need to focus on achieving low and stable inflation. By law, the Fed should pay equal attention to the level of employment and prices, but, in reality, it also focuses primarily on inflation. Unanimity of all members of the Central Bank of fabricated research departments and universities. Moreover, the adoption of this perspective has helped scientists to take a seat at the helm of the Central Bank: for example, lead not only to Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the Fed, but also the King, and Lucas Papademosa deputy. ECB chairman, and Lars Svensona deputy. Chairman of the Bank of Sweden.

Macroeconomics as a whole came in a strong dependence on the axiom of the effectiveness of markets and their ability to absorb bursts of emotions, which lead to panic and manic states. "Being involved in decision-making on monetary policy, I discovered that modern macroeconomic research is not applicable to solve the problems that we encountered," - noted Blanchflauer in his speech on March 24. For the same reason, today questioned the focus on low and stable inflation. The current recession has started on a background of stability - just as the American Depression and the Japanese "lost decade." "Not enough to follow only the inflation", - said Blanchflauer. "This approach has not been able to prevent the formation of imbalances that provoke a crisis, and it is not enough to cope with problems arising from the financial markets. We talk a lot about the need to develop new tools for regulation of the financial sector that could help prevent such crises." Bernanke and his predecessor Alan Greenspan before the crisis have argued that bubbles in asset markets is difficult to identify until they burst. A sdut them without consequences for the economy even more difficult. Central banks should intervene only if the bubbles threaten price stability. Otherwise, they should sit and wait until they burst, and then rake rubble. This position is only strengthened after the burst bubble in the market dotkomov in the late 1990's.

However, recent events show the contrary. William White, a former chief economist of the Bank for International Settlements, said that the orientation of the Central Bank to price stability over the medium term and led to the formation of bubbles. Their shlopyvanie facing deflation in the long run. This year, in many countries, inflation will be negative only due to reduction in fuel prices. But even in 2010, inflation is likely to remain below 2% - the target of many securities. In fact, many banks are not much worried, saying that inflation is "under control". However, market participants and economists fear that they will not be able to quickly raise the ante and turn its programs to encourage, when the crisis ends. And it will release inflation at will. Yet steadily falling prices would limit the ability of banks to stimulate growth, because they will not be able to delete the interest rates below inflation, that is, to make them negative in real terms.

Eric Rozengrin, chairman of the Fed in Boston, recently noted that over the past ten years, double the Fed lowered rates to zero or nearly zero. In economic modeling does not take into account this frequency, indicating a need to revise inflation targets. Also proposed to reorient the Central Bank with inflation in the price corridor. For example, each year this corridor is growing at 2%. Then, after a year of deflation at the level of 1%, the central bank will seek to inflation above 2% in subsequent years (say, 5% in two years), to return prices to earlier levels. Greg Manco, an economist from Harvard, went further, proposing to reduce the priority of inflation. "There are things worse and deflation," - he said. "And now we are faced with them."

Rather than inflation targets, the Central Bank will lose the confidence that they are the hard-won, therefore, it is doubtful that they will be happy to go to such a step. Now unlikely anyone dare to ignore the formation of bubbles, and blow them in the early stages, too, has not yet been able, because no one knows how to do it. At this stage, many are inclined to what is easier to use and the smooth management of risks in the financial system. This is called a caution at the macroeconomic level. Last year, Ben Bernanke explained, than it will be different from the normal supervision of individual banks. He noted that the risk was acceptable for a company ceases to be such when it duplicated a lot of companies. Similarly, the usual supervisory authority may require individual banks to reduce lending during the recession, while the care at the macro level refers to the fact that such actions could harm the entire system.

The principle of precaution at the macro level indicates a change in another trend that existed until 2007 - when the Central Bank refused to completely control the functions and focus solely on monetary policy. Scientists believed that the control distracts from the Central Bank to ensure price stability and has a conflict of interest: Central Bank can stimulate inflation to smooth out sharp edges in the banking system, or to support insolvent banks to protect the economy. The central banks of Austria and Britain abandoned the part of regulatory functions. The ECB was set up without them. However, fantasies of diligence at the macro level, most likely not materialize. In the identification and neutralization of bubbles, it is also helpless, like a traditional monetary policy. Moreover, while there is no any correlation between the regulatory responsibilities of the central bank and its ability to avert a crisis. U.S. Federal Reserve - the most powerful and advanced and the financial management, but problems began right under his nose. Neither the Central Bank of Australia nor the Central Bank of Canada does not have the oversight responsibility, however, the financial systems of both countries have suffered less than others. This statistic relates to the behavior of investors and the local zakonodatetlstvom, and not with those for whom follow.

The new fighters in the political arena

By Khudu whether, or for good, but after the crisis, central banks will be stronger than the monitor market processes. This would entail another change: now they can see themselves as completely apolitical. The official status of independence to protect them from political influence. In addition, the principle of "one tool, one goal of" managing the monetary policy turned into a purely technical manipulation. The distinction between central banks and policy today is no longer seen as clearly. Innovative measures often require central banks to make loans that they can not fully repay. This means that taxpayers will suffer losses. This means that without the authorization of the Ministry of Finance can not do. The distribution of credit funds and stricter regulation makes some winners and some losers, therefore, requires clarification and transparency.

What motivates the U.S.

While most market participants Forex are simple machines - was estimated that 25% of all currency traders trades, taking into account the fundamental factors, compared with 30% who use technical factors. Among the intra-day traders, this ratio is probably even more in the direction outweighs technicians. However, as we have seen over the past year, fundamental releases became more and more important catalysts for a strong market movement. Based on our observations, the most significant movement of the dollar against the euro typically occur within the first 20 minutes after economic reports. The relative importance of these changes from time to time. Also, the relative importance of economic reports has tended to evolve over time. For example, in 1992 the trade balance was in first place among the major U.S. economic data to influence the movement of the dollar in the 20-minute period of time, while data for payroll (and data on unemployment benefits) were in third place. In 2004, these two indicators are reversed - the data on the payroll of the non-agricultural sectors are the main driver of the U.S. market, and the trade balance has shifted to third place. This sounds quite logical, as the market shifts its attention to the various sectors of the economy and economic data - for example, the trade balance may be given priority when the country seems to have a deficit unviable. Similarly, in the economy, which has difficulty with the creation of jobs, the data on unemployment are considered as the most important market.

According to the report published by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) in 1999, the importance of economic data seen in the following order:

Forex market dealers ranked economic data on their importance (change over time)

In 1997:
1. Unemployment
2. Interest rates
3. Inflation
4. Trade Balance
5. Gross domestic product

In 1992:
1. Trade Balance
2. Interest rates
3. Unemployment
4. Inflation
5. Gross domestic product
** Calculations are based on the 20-minute reaction

What is also important to take into account - is that prices are always restored from the daily rate, so that even the strongest indicator, based on a 20-minute movement of the dollar can not be a significant engine of the market rate in the general trend. According to our own analysis of the 20-minute and daily ranges, we set up the following list of economic data on their impact on the movement of the market rate:

In 2004, (20 minutes):
1. Unemployment (Non-Farm Payrolls)
2. Interest rates (Decision FOMC)
3. Trade Balance
4. Inflation (CPI)
5. Retail sales
6. Gross domestic product
7. Current account
8. Orders for durable goods
9. Inflows of foreign capital in the United States (data from TIC)

In 2004, the (day):
1. Unemployment (Non-Farm Payrolls)
2. Interest rates (Decision FOMC)
3. The inflow of foreign capital in the United States (data from TIC)
4. Trade Balance
5. Current account
6. Orders for durable goods
7. Retail sales
8. Inflation (CPI)
9. Gross domestic product

As shown in our lists, information on billing statements in non-agricultural sectors have a significant impact on the movement of the dollar against the euro, resulting in an average of 124-punktovomu range of trading for the first 20 minutes after and 192-punktovomu trading range during the day. Interest rates are also being held on the second place in both time periods, but for other indicators situation begins to change significantly. Net foreign purchases of American securities in the general case are the average movement in the 33 paragraph in the first 20 minutes, while at day basis, these data lead to the average movement of 132 points. For other economic indicators of the average ranges in 2004 for the currency pair EURUSD were as follows:

The average 20-min. range (items)

Payroll - 124
The decision FOMC - 74
Trade Balance - 64
Inflation (CPI) - 44
Retail sales - 43
Gross domestic product - 43
Current Account - 43
Durable goods - 39
Capital inflows (TIC) - 33
Average daily range (items)
Payroll - 193
The decision FOMC - 140
Capital inflows (TIC) - 132
Trade Balance - 129
Current Account - 127
Durable goods - 126
Retail sales - 125
Inflation (CPI) - 123
Gross Domestic Product - 110

* The average daily range for the EURUSD in 2004. of 111 items

As you can see, the most significant change over the past few years has undergone a balance of trade impact on the movement of the dollar against the euro. Moreover, contrary to popular belief, throughout this time period, the report on gross domestic product was one of the most important economic indicators, and led to the smallest relative motion of the pair EURUSD. One possible explanation for this may lie in the fact that reports on gross domestic product fell less frequently than other data taken into consideration (a quarterly basis to monthly). In addition, data on gross domestic product more prone to ambiguity and incorrect interpretation. For example, growth in gross domestic product, due to increases in exports will contribute positively to its currency. However, if the gross domestic product growth occurred as a result of building inventory, the impact on the currency can be rather negative. These factors are very important to keep in mind the currency traders, regardless of what (technical or fundamental) trading strategies they use. For technical traders, trading in the range, it would seem logical to stay away from the market before the publication of data on the payroll of the non-agricultural sectors, while traders trading for a breakthrough, a publication of the data on the contrary provides excellent opportunities for trade. For fundamental traders, these results are also important, because the adjustment of the exchange rate in relation to the economic news seems to be happening very quickly - a reaction beyond the 15-30 minute period after the release of data may be the result of over-reaction of investors and trade-related with the flow customers, not only to the news. Gross domestic product is, in this respect, a perfect example, because the 20-minute reaction in the list is higher than that day. Also critically important is to interpret the data in the context of how the market sees them as important at this point in time, because from time to time there is a change in focus of the market, and the once highly relevant data may not be such as having less impact on exchange rate and vice versa, respectively.

The fall of the dollar on the labor market proved short-lived

Economic statistics of the weekly report on U.S. labor market has become a blow to the bulls on the dollar meant lower number of primary applications of unemployed and the sudden fall of the total number of persons receiving benefits, be greater than analysts had expected. After the release of data was subjected to strong U.S. sales, but so far have not been able to develop a greater reduction, taking into account the deterrent effect, which had a statement of the Department of Labor United States, indicating that the improvement is not the result of improving economic conditions and was the result of seasonal changes. Dealers are reminded that the recent attempts to strengthen the dollar is largely based on the weak economic statistics coming from different regions, but in recent days it has again been under pressure, given the decline in long positions against the background of evidence of failure to break out of the band formed, and pleasant surprises of the corporate reporting . Maintaining a positive nature in the past few days could be a catalyst for a more significant weakening of U.S. currency, and, while testing resistance near $ 1.42 is very likely break above will open the way to the maximum this year, while in the case of the materialization of some improvement of basic economic statistics strengthen the currency risk can get further impetus.

Do-it-Yourself Trading

I receive a lot of emails daily but one in particular caught my attention. This person states the following:

"Plz, I am new in the markets and I have lost a lot. I wanted you to help me and tell me what I have to do."

This is strictly my opinion but there are a couple of things I see wrong with the approach this person is taking.

1. If you are new to the markets and risking a lot of money, of course you're going to lose a lot of money. Open a small account and play with only the money you can afford to lose.
2. He wants me to help him? I'm having a tough enough time myself.

I have come to the realization that absolutely nobody can make you a successful trader. You have to mold yourself into a successful trader. Trading is no different than any other thing in life. When you fall, you have to get up and keep getting up no matter how many times it happens. No one is going to hold your hand through this learning process. There are so many mentors and forex teachers out there but they ultimately will not help you. They may steer you the right way or put you on the right track but after that, you're on your own. I'm not saying that none of them are legitimate, I'm just saying that even if they give you a step by step trading manual, this does not guarantee anything! I signed up for Rob Booker training quite some time ago and though I sometimes think I wasted $1000, this isn't necessarily true. All the information I gathered and all the things I've learned over the last year have stuck with me and have molded me a certain way. The jury is still out on whether these things will ever lead to me being a consistently profitable full-time trader but there is only so much you can do. If 2 years from now I'm still making the same mistakes and I'm not consistently making money, I will just have to accept the fact that I'm not cut out for this business. Some people may find this out a lot sooner and one way to do it is to throw money you cannot afford to lose into a live account when you have no experience.

The whole point of striving towards the goal of trading full-time is so that I don't have to rely on anyone to support me financially, tell me when I can take vacation, get annoyed when I legitamitaly call in sick, tell me when I can eat lunch, tell me to drive to work in 10 inches of snow and so on. Working for someone flat out sucks and this is what keeps me going.

So, I cannot tell anyone what they need to do because I don't have the experience to do so and even if I did, it wouldn't help. You just have to be smart with your money because one of the most important things is lasting long enough to get the experience that may lead to success. It is also absolutely necessary for you to have the motivation and dedication to march on no matter what happens.

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 everytime 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?

If you’re new to trading forex or have been trading for a couple of years, the #1 goal is to stay in the game as long as you can. I’ve talked to many traders over the years and many of them have been in and outers. They’ll jump in head first, blow up multiple accounts, and jump out never to be heard from again. There are other traders I’ve known who couldn’t consistently turn a profit and instead turned into mentors or forex marketers. Heed caution… There are also others who couldn’t stand the non-regulation of forex and went back to trading futures or stocks. There are a couple traders still around since I started but I can count them on one hand. It takes years to become a trader and I can’t even say that for certain. I’m still not there but I’m still around and giving myself at least 5 years. If it doesn’t work out for me or you after 5 years, just think of the countless people who have gone to college and have never entered into the field of their degree.

Rich is Trading Forex Again

So after yet another hiatus from trading forex, I just recently had my first trade in months. It was a successful one also. But the question I want to answer is, “Is this blog dead?” The answer is no. I’ve made a living over the past 3 years ducking in and out of here depending on what’s going on in my life. Sometimes I’m just too swamped at my real job, other times I just don’t feel like writing, but I always come back. The great thing is I’ve built up a lot of content over the years so a lot of it applies to the type of forex trader you’re trying to become.

So where do I go from here? I’m in the mood to start trading forex again so that’s what I’m going to do. I’m also going to talk a little about stocks. I’ve had a lot of success, believe it or not, trading the stock market in the last couple of months and I think I’ve learned some things that I could apply to trading forex. So you’ll hear me talk about some of these things also.
