Forex Trading Strategies

Free 5 Day Video Trading Course

The 2009 financial climate is leaving many people nervous about Share Trading, one only has to observe the charts and listen to reports of companies in trouble, to realise just how unpredictable the Share market is. Yes there is still profits in it, and with many stocks available at basement prices, there are opportunities to make good long term profits.

With the deregulation of the Foreign Currency Markets or Forex in the 1990s, increasing numbers of people are exploring this as an alternative income generator. There are a number of ways to trade Forex, Long term or Scalping, the list goes on, but there is one thing they all have in common, a high level of risk if you go in with your eyes closed.

So it does not really matter how you decide to approach your foray into Forex trading, if you would like to hang on to your money instead of rip it up at an alarming rate, you are going to have to learn Forex trading before you start committing any hard earned cash.

Some very good basic information is offered by Babypips.com, at no cost, but they do not delve into how to formulate Forex trading strategies.

What is a Forex trading strategy? Simply put, it is a system for setting money management rules, analysing the progression of a chart, establishing a possible trade entry point (Setup), confirming the entry point, opening a trade, establishing an exist strategy to both minimise losses and to take profits.

A trading strategy is critical to Forex trading, without it there is no way of working out why you entered a loosing trade and how to correct it, or why the trade worked and how you could improve it.

As you commence trading, a trading strategy provides the basis for trading on a Demo account. These are provided by most brokers and allow you to make some test trades, without risking real money. You establish an account balance and trade it real time testing your trading strategy and watch your balance either profit or crash. You’ll soon see if the strategy you are testing stacks up!

To get you started with a specific trading strategy for profiting from market rebounds, there is a free video course which will teach you a trade called the “Rubber Band Trade” and shows you what is involved in developing a trading strategy.

It’s a very profitable trading strategy developed by a Professional Trader and covers the technical analysis for all stages of this specific trade. Once you have tested this strategy on a Demo account and made it work consistently, you can apply it to a real account and start making some money whilst you develop and test other trading strategies that will make your Forex trading a success. 

I regularly use this trading strategy and still trade it when the charts set up correctly. A quick 20-30 pips? Why would you miss the chance?
