The really secret of a successful forex trader is the mindset,discipline and money management.

Once an understanding of the external elements of trading is completed, the hard work begins: the trader must understand his own mind. The external elements are easy – they are usually rational, factual, consistent, and ordered. The trader’s mind, however, is far from all of that.

The Trader’s mind

Trader goes through an enormous array of emotions and thoughts during a trade. Some are good, some are bad, but it is rare to find a trader who consistently applies his plan.

Emotion, or lack of discipline, is the greatest enemy of every trader. This is so true that one could argue that discipline is a more precious trading commodity than capital itself, since capital can only be sustained with discipline.
This is not to say that the trader does not have value to bring – he does. In moments of clear, objective contemplation, many traders – even novices – can be builders of excellent trading systems. These systems can take advantage of their understanding of the forces of forex and test out incredibly. Once live, however, the system falls apart. Why?

The simple reason is that emotion has no place in trading. Emotion causes the trader to act differently following large wins or losses. Emotion causes the trader to act irrationally when large moves occur. Emotion causes the trader to apply his trading system inconsistently.

If you took a survey of successful traders you would find many similarities. The traders would understand and apply all of the forces of forex. They would usually trade incredibly simple trading systems. They would trade using conservative, well thought out money management philosophies, and they would trade with absolute consistency.

For the institutional investor, absolute consistency is not a problem, since they have an array of personnel and resources at their disposal. For individual investors, there are three groups. Those who trade without consistency, those who trade with manual consistency, and those who trade with automated consistency. The novice, of course, is the trader who thrashes from trade to trade. The individual investor who uses consistent discipline or automation as the foundation of his trading activity maximizes his level of sophistication.

WHEN Is The Best Time ??

Forex is a 24/7 market – but is the market action the same at all times? Of course not, but not many traders stop to consider the impact of this fact on their trades. Studying historical price data reaching backa period of time and determine the impact. Give yourself a chance! Trade when the market is most likely to help you.

One of the best ways to validate a technical indicator is volume. When volume is strong, indicators tend to be more accurate. Unfortunately, there is no volume data available for the forex markets. Using trading ranges is the next best thing.
Having this data in hand, the trader can more carefully evaluate when to trade. Not only will technical indicators generally have more accuracy at different points of the day, but there is both more profit potential and less loss potential at other times of the day.

Consider a trade in EURUSD at 10 AM EST vs. one at 10 PM EST. The first has an averagetrading range of 30 pips, the second, 10 pips. Entering the market during the morning trade creates some interesting possibilities – the market may go against you or with you, but you should be prepared for a ride in either case. On the other hand, if the market goes against you 10 pips at 10 PM, how concerned should you be? Probably not as much as if it  was 4 AM.

Anybody can trade based on technical indicators. The novice, in particular, ignores theimportance of “when” as he makes trading choices. The sophisticated investor is theone who uses timing to his advantage – creating profit opportunities and limitinglosses by observing the market with more perspective.

WHERE To Trade Forex

It is one thing to choose a dealer, and quite another to choose the correct dealer. Dealers’ service offerings can take many forms, and each dealer usually has one or two major features that they highlight above all others. When analyzing dealers, first understand and rank all of their service offerings, then apply those findings to your trading style to arrive at your optimal dealer.

Comparing different dealers using common metrics helps to clarify where each dealer’s strength lies. Armed with that information, the trader is ready to choose the dealer who best fits his trading style.

Which dealer would you choose? Novice traders will often choose the dealer with the best marketing, simply because it’s the one they know.

They learn about the dealer, visit the site, register for a demo, then scale the learning curve to grow comfortable trading with that dealer, using their charts, etc.
Frequently, the dealer with the best marketing is not the best dealer for the trader, or perhaps, for any trader. Traders use systems that work in the short term, mid term, or long term, with varying holding times and strategies. The type of dealer needed for each approach is quite different.

For every trader there is an optimal dealer. For many, the path of least resistance leads to the dealer who makes first contact, not the dealer who will provide the best trading outcome. The sophisticated investor optimizes returns by matching his trading style to his dealer.

WHY Trade Forex

Forex trading has surged in recent years, as more individuals earn their living trading and the popularity of riskier investment vehicles like hedge funds has increased. The bottom line for these investors is superio returns, and in foreign exchange four major factors create a unique investment environment:

• Liquidity

• Leverage

• Convenience

• Cost

In no other market can you find a playing field that is so biased to the investor, at least on the surface. But to take advantage of these factors you have to be constantly aware of their downside.

Liquidity
In a liquid market there is a high degree of transparency, even when large transactions change hands. The sophisticated investor understands what this means: forex attracts huge players. As a trader grows in sophistication, they understand that these huge players have significant price impact, and watch for their market entry.

Leverage
The low margin requirements in the forex markets make everyone’s what-if analysis yield forecasts with 1000% growth annually. What those forecasts fail to account for is the multiplying effect of leverage during periods of consecutive losses.
What’s the ultimate worst case scenario? Consecutive losses. Knowing how many consecutive losses your system is likely to sustain is the key to capital conservation. Examples of leverage: 1:1 = one $100K contract per $100K in capital. 20:1 = 20 $100K contracts per $100K in capital.

Convenience

The fact that you need to go to bed or spend time with your family does not stop the forex markets from operating. In other markets you can trade a specific window that usually lasts 6-10 hours, which is physically manageable. Forex, on the other hand, demands 24 hour monitoring. That can be accomplished through automated trading systems or, less optimally, through pre-set stop and limit orders or physical monitoring of a trade.

Cost
“No commission trading” is a marketing slogan many dealers offer as a perceived benefit of forex. But the fact that there is no commission does not change the high level of transaction costs paid to dealers through the bid-ask spread. There is no doubt that the liquidity, leverage, convenience, and transaction costs found in the forex markets are great tools for investors – but not always. Just as easily as these tools can be used for wealth creation, they can be misused for wealth destruction. The novice investor destroys wealth, and the sophisticated investor creates it.

1. WHO Trade Forex
   

Far more important than knowing who trades forex is knowing who trades forex successfully, and how they do it. The players in the forex markets operate with widely varying perspectives. When one of these players enters the market, a force is created that is proportional to the perspective of the trade initiator. That force can play a role in the short term, creating radical price changes, and it can play a long term role, defining trends.

Below shows the major perspectives in the forex markets.  Each perspective carries a different attitude, goal, investment horizon, and market impact.

1. Governments - Long terms enablers of national,regional or global economics goals. Market disruptors.

2. Investment Funds - Long terms trend followers with high levels of skill resources        knowledge and commitment. Risk avoiders.

3. Banks - Credit suppliers to corporations, governments,funds and ancillary forex traders. Market makers.

4. Corporations - Long term players who seek profit protection through treasury management. Active Hedgers.

5. Traders - Short term followers with a wide range of skill,knowledge and resources, and commitment. Risk Takers.

They key difference among these market participants is their level of sophistication, where the elements of sophistication include:

• Money management techniques

• Profit objectives

• Level of computerization

• Quantitative abilities

• Research abilities

• Level of discipline

Of course there are sophisticated and non-sophisticated banks, governments, corporations, investment funds, and traders. But among these segments it is the individual trader who has the least amount of external governance. Whereas governments, banks, corporations, and investment funds adhere to regulations and restrictions (to a certain extent), traders are only restricted by their level of capital.
In the absence of these external restrictions, traders fall into two groups: those who can impose internal restrictions – discipline - on their trading strategies and those who cannot: the fence-swingers, et al.
Those who can impose this discipline we will call the sophisticated investor. In the zero-sum game of forex trading, the sophisticated investor uses tools and strategies that emulate those of the highly sophisticated institutional participants to extract profits from the novice participant. It is only the sophisticated investor who has the ability to extract positive returns from the forex markets.

THE SIX FORCES OF FOREX

Trading forex is like watching a school of fish move. One minute is total harmony, the next, complete chaos. As the observer of this school of fish, do you believe you can accurately predict the direction the school of fish will move each time? Would you bet on it?

What causes the fish to move the way they do? Why do they work together in one moment, moving with force and precision, and move in what seems to be an infinite number of directions the next? There’s no way to know unless you can sense what the fish sense each time they move. The fish have an instinct about the nature of their environment. They understand the context of all things around them – natively – and can react accordingly. Surely if you shared this understanding you’d be a much more accurate predictor of fish movement!

Trading forex is not much different - we need to develop that keen sense of what is happening around us. Will we ever be able to predict every move in the forex markets? Absolutely not. But we can use our understanding of the context of the market – the six forces of forex – to make better, more profitable trading choices. Once we understand these forces, we can create and operate within a comprehensive trading plan:

Who trades forex? Understand who participates in the markets, why they are successful, and how you can emulate them.

Why trade forex? There are superior returns in forex, but not for all investors. Are you one of them?

Where should you trade? Choose to work with service providers who can efficiently enable your style of trading.

What should you trade? Select the currency pair, entry, exit and money management methods that will maximize your returns.

When should you trade? Trade when the environment is most likely to produce the best conditions for executing your system.

How should you trade? Trade using methods that maximize your ability to emulate the proven winners.

Knowledge of these forces and how they work is a major determinant of your success as a trader.

The great confidence booster with any endeavor one attempts is the knowledge of how to succeed. This self-assurance provides security when times are a little tough and understanding when things are going well. Wisdom can be acquired though experience or from an educational encounter. Gaining experience trading the Forex markets without learning the markets first is often costly and can lead to large financial losses. There is a better way to gain that awareness and it is through a Forex trading education class taught online.

I absolutely fail to understand how a person can decide to invest in the currency markets but is unwilling to invest in themselves. If you are even able to read this someone much wiser than you once invested in your education. If they considered training a strategic aspect of long term success, why then do you think it is unnecessary to continue learning for the remainder of your life?

The currency markets are a wild and wooly place where one second you believe you know everything and five minutes later your sure your mother raised a fool. And that is how the professional Forex traders feel, wonder how the novice investor that does not have a clue what is going on must feel?

Never in the history of the world has there been a market as big as the currency markets are today. And never in the history of the world have so many seemingly uninterested individuals been creating great wealth for themselves and their families. All though they seem to approach trading differently, the wealth builders do have at least one thing in common. They invested in there education before entering the currency markets. They realized from the very beginning that the opportunities the Forex markets presented were tremendous and to leave anything to chance was simply not worth the risk of failure.

Forex trading education before entering the currency markets will provide you confidence that you have the knowledge you need to succeed and accumulate wealth. Confidence and knowledge will defiantly give you the determination to move ahead when the road appears a little clogged, the wisdom to slow down when things don’t look right and the foresight to plow straight ahead when opportunity presents itself. If you desire to leave the markets with a great deal more funds than you started with and make a new life for yourself and family then investing in yourself is the first step to that prosperity.
