Forex Day Trading System - Exciting Info!!
There are quite a few exciting infos that I have to share.
First, my blog has reached 600 subscribers in the RSS feed list..Thanks to all of you for making it such a popular blog site..Keep visiting and I'll share lot of other useful information also on the world of forex trading.
Next exciting news is that I am in middle of creating a forex trading course which will be launched in next few weeks and guess what I am going to distribute it Free to about 50 people before I start selling it. Why? One reason is that this is a way for me to thank the loyal visitors of this site. The next is that their feedback will allow me to improve the curse before it full fledgedly gets launched in the market.
I'll put up an opt-in page very soon for you to register..As you know me I am against Spam!! So don't worry about your email ids..:-)
The next is about historic moment on USD/CAD!!!!! Yes, the balance has shifted to CAD. The canadian dollar has become more stronger than USD. As of today 1 USD is equal to 0.99 CAD
Though this is historic, it opens a whole lot of sell opportunities. If you look at the monthly charts, the USD/CAD currency pair has just now broken the strong support, so it is extremly bearish. So what hour time frame you trade, daily or hourly or even 15 min, look for good entry points!!
Also, do remember, this week the NFP (Non farm payroll) numbers are going to come out.

Forex Day Trading system - The market trigger called NFP
Currently the forex market is range trading..Its not trending at all. Thats what happens when a fundamental announcement is about to come out. If the fundemental news is not big, the range bound movement may happen on the 15 min chart. However if the fundamental announcement is as big as NFP (Non farm payroll), then the range bound movemet can be seen on the hourly or even the day chart.
Thats wh the fundamental nnouncement is important. It can help in understanding why the market is trending or is range bound.
The NFP is one of the very highly observed fundamental announcements. The market moves more han 50+ pips in mere seconds. If you catch the wave correctly, you'll end up making faboulous profit. However, if the trade is not right, well, your account may see a reduction in balance.
I would not suggest you to trade the NFP announcement, UNLESS you have a solid system. Lot of people claimed to have a good NFP trdaing system, but their strategy was way too risky and was not good in terms of risk to reward.
If you have to use a system, I would recommend you to try out the one recommended by Avi Frister in his package of Forex Trading Machine. This ebook is very nice, easy to understand and yet easy to follow. Following that strategy, the amount of pips in profit are quite nice.
Now, I know you are tempted to buy it, but I would suggest you to try that out on a demo account 1st..Once you become comfortabe,you can apply the strategy on the real account.
However, if you do not have a system, I would strongly suggest you to stay away from the Nonfarm payrolls (NFP) announcements and not trade at all when this news is coming out.

Forex day trading - How do you decide the stop loss?
The importance of a stop loss when placing a trade, is very evident. One will not want the entire account balance to come to zero which can happen if stop loss is not in place.
But how do you decide a stop loss? Should it be anything?? Are there any factors that decide the stop loss?
There absolutely are the factors -
1. Foremost is how much can you risk? That amount should not only drive your stop loss, but it should also decide the time frame you should forex trade on.
2. The indicators you use. Ideally the stop loss should be the below the indicators you use to decide entry point. For example if you use 5 ema, then your stop loss can be few pips below that ema (exponential moving average)
3. The time frame you place your forex trades at. If you use 15 min chart, the stop loss should be at least 20 pips. If 1 hr chart, then atleast 40-45 pips.
4. Fundamental news or announcements. Always make sure that there are no fundamental announcements such as NFP (Non Farm Payroll) or FOMC etc are coming out. Since they can hit your stop loss in seconds if the news are against your direction of trade.

NFP today impacted the EUR/USD
Today Non Farm Payroll were announced. As always it caused some ripples in the market and that set the market in motion. EUR/USD especially broke out of the range which it was in for last 2 days.
If you llok at today's NFP announcement, it led to a partial bullish candle on 1 hr chart. After the candle closed at 9 AM EST, the next candle closed outside the highest of the 8 AM candle. That was a huge bullish signal to trade.
Also this forex signal can be considered to be even more stronger considering that the currency pair broker the 200 EMA.
Thats the point when I entered the trade with a very conservative target of 30 pips which is because this is Friday and market will close very soon.
With in next candle my limit order was reached and I ended with 30 pips profit.
Though not very popularly followed, the candlestick analysis is very important and useful.

A landmark post - USD in massive gains
There are 2 points I am trying to cover in this message. The 1st is personnal .. Here it is -
This is the 100 th post on this forex trading blog.. Yes, the overall count has reached triple digits. It started as a small journey with a quick introduction. Now it is a blog where people come regularly to get updates about happenning in Forex market from an angle they can understand very easily. 200+ RSS subscribers are a proof of that.
Out of the last 100 posts, 37 were on common technical indicators such as EMA, MACD, parabolic sar, pivot points. This category seems to be very popular among readers. However the most popular topic has been updates on NFP (Non Farm payroll) fundamental announcement and news.
During the 100 posts I have also mentioned quite a few trading strategy and system. Also, I have recommended the popular ebooks and courses..
The 2nd point I would like to cover in this topic is retaliation of USD against all majors ..USD has been on gaining spree for the last 2 days..It has already moved close to 200 pips against EUR and GBP.. Experts say that it is primarily because of strong rally in stock market or the DOW. However I feel that from technical standpoint also it was due.. The majors had a big run against USD for quite a while. Now the currency pairs will start falling back towards 200 EMA

Famous and reliable resources to learn Forex Trading
Famous and reliable resources to learn Forex Trading -
Thanks for visiting my site again. As I was mentioning in my last post, this post is about relaible resources for learning currency trading. Without learning from the great resources if you start trading, let me tell you that it is as good as seeing money go down the drain.
So, choice of a good resource ( an ebook, or a video course, a paid mentore etc. or even a free website like mine..:-)) is the key to learn forex trading.
Here are my recommended resources -
1. Peter Bain's forex mentor - By far the best video based course. Contains a lots of DVDs and detailed explaination with example and conatins 6 month membership to his daily recommendations. Costs about $450 which I consider is equivalent of 45 pips on EUR/USD only..:-)
2. Avi Frister's Forex Trading Machine - As you know I recommend this ebook heavily. Excellent and very simple to understand. Great examples in the ebook. Besides, here is another thing I was told by him in one of his emails in last few days since I bought his Forex Trading Machine ebook - "He has created video lessons of what he teaches in the ebook". Also, Avi Frister is telling all the buyers about the strategy on high to make money during NFP announcement. The price is just $97 (equivalent to 10 pips..:-))
3. 5 EMA forex trading system - Another excellent ebook. Simple and yet very very effective. As you know that EMA are the straight forward technical indicators to use. This ebook explores its use in this system very effectively. Adam Burgoyne has truly created a fantastic product. Price for this ebook is again very low - $97 (10 pips..:-))
I won't recommend you to subscribe to any forex trading signal services..Whats the fun if you don't know what you are doing.
Mind you, you should buy the courses/ebooks explaining a strategy only when you have solid understanding of technical indicators..After that if you buy any of the recommended resources, they will make great sense to you.

Day trading the Forex: Zing is missing from the NFP announcements
Somehow that volatility for which Non farm payrolls and related fundamental news and announcements are famous, is missing.
Yesterday's NFP was $ bullish and EUR/USD currency moved only 80 pips as against the typical movement of 100-140 pips..
Is it because the NF payroll is not being treated as important by market anymore? This definitly is shift in pattern from past 3 declaration of this fundamental announcement.
I read a column at daily fx sometime back and from that article I concluded that since most of the fundamental trading is driven by US Dollar based news. Since, the economic factors change such interest hikes, change in inflation, policy outlook etc., the importance of the announcement changes . fore.gNFP may be important today, tomorrow ISM or FOMC may become more important.
Thats why it is very impirtant to be aware of whats happenning in US economic world when you are doing forex trading.
Oh yes, about my experience with Avi Frister's strategy - I made 35 pips in that. However, I lost 25 pips with the other strategy I was trying. In all a profit of 10 pips.
If you are interested in buying the ebook by Avi yourself, here is the link - Forex Trading Machine.
It includes my affiliate link and will help me earn some commision. Thanks if you end up buying the book through this link.

Forex Day Trading System - Its that time of month again
Yes, its Non farm Payroll time..or popularly known as nfp..The hottest news of monthly forex calender. As like last month, I am going to try few forex strategies that learnt from Avi Frister's popular ebook. Also, I am going to try some more startegies that I am trying to develop on my own.
For the last 2 months, I am finding that NFP is not mooving the market so much. Last 2 months, the average movement of EUR/USD is 80-90 pips, where as month prior to that it was 135 pips..
I am not sure, what is the reason for that. However, still I am going to try these strategies that I are a part of Forex Trading Machine ebook.
Also, for all of you who were asking about my trades using ebook written by Adam Burgoyne called 5 EMA forex trading system, let me tell you that it is a wonderful ebook, however, before you place the trade using it, read it very carefully. Because for the strategy to be effective, please make sure that you have not missed any details.
If you are going to place any trades for NFP tomorrow and you are not proficient in that, please try it on demo account.
Thats all in this session..

Here is what happenned -
a. Trade A went successfully and I acheived good amount of pips.
b. Trade b was loss of 25 pips
c. trade c was profit of 50 pips
In all, its still early to say about my startegy, however I can say that Forex trading machine is a nice course and contains good forex trading systems for day as well as swing trading..

Forex Day Trading System: the volatility when news break out
People many times ask me why does the volitility increase significantly when a fundamental news announcement such as FOCM or NFP comes out?
It may seem to be simple question for some of you, but I must tell you that it is very important for those who don't know.
Volatility is driven by the number of people in the forex market to buy or sell a currency pair in day trading. So, when the news breakout, the banks or the traders realize what is the true value of the currency. So, lets say if US fed release a fundamental announcement that is favourable for USD, it would mean that people need to buy dollar and close all the positions which are not in short in dollar.
This will increase the volatility tremendously and the candlestick bars will get bigger and all the traders who do technical trading will jump in..In other words, the online forex trading market will become active..
Thants all in today's post..Like I said in many previous posts, Keep visiting to learn more in the day trading of the currency market..You can add this page to your favourites or can add subscribe to the RSS feed by adding the chicklets on your yahoo/google or technorati page..
