Are You Cut Out To Be A Forex Trader?November 26 2007
Trading forex can be one of the most profitable professions, even if you're just trading your own account, providing you're successful. However, if you are trading on your computer at home it can be a very lonely profession. The common opinion amongst non-traders is that forex trading is hugely exciting with vast sums of money to be won and lost every day, with the potential to really strike it rich, but in reality this isn't really the case. Sure it can be exciting at times when, for example, a currency pair moves 50 or 100 points in your favour in a matter of minutes and you're sitting on a huge profit, but this type of occurrence doesn't happen all the time. Far from it in fact. There are times when you can be sitting at your computer for hours on end trying to find a trading position to take, and can sometimes spend the whole day without entering a single trade. In fact sometimes during particularly volatile times and conversely in very quiet times when the markets are moving sideways, it's often best to sit on your hands and not take a position. This certainly isn't exciting and is a good example of why forex trading is not always that exhilarating. In addition there are times when you can have a losing trade, or worst still a losing streak where several trades go against you, and therefore not only have you not made any money, but you've actually lost money. Trust me, it's not a great feeling going into the weekend knowing you've actually lost money during the last

Forex BoredomNovember 26 2007
A lot of people ask me "how many hours do you trade the forex?" and my answer is that I generally trade every trading day from the start of the London Open until the end of the New York session and occasionally beyond. At the weekend I usually carry out various forex studies and I read various publications from other prominent traders. I do think that it is important to explain that although I am trading for a lot of hours, this does not mean that I am in an active trade for all of that time, in fact I am on average in an active trade for very little of that time. Many new and inexperienced traders seem to have the idea that trading is about placing trades, and that the watching and waiting is very boring. I suppose that this is quite a natural assumption, but it is an assumption that is quite incorrect. The biggest part of trading ' and the hardest part for many ' is spent studying, planning, watching and waiting for high probability trades. I am often asked if I get bored just sitting in front of the PC watching and waiting. Do I ever get bored with forex? ' No, not bored - Sometimes, however, I just am not in the mood for forex, so at those rare times when I just do not want to think about the forex ' I do something else. I don't agonise about it, I just accept that there is no point in trying to think forex when I am not in the mood to do so. I love everything about forex trading. If I didn't, I would do something else to earn a living, but I do not just si
