Currency Relationships and the Effects of Time Zones

Knowing when to enter the market is crucial to exercising a good technical trading strategy.  There are many pitfalls that inexperienced traders experience because they are entering the market when the probability for making a successful trade is reduced.  So when is the best time to look for a trade and why?

The best time to look for a trade is when there is heavy volume in the currency markets.  Since the Forex market is open 24 hours per day, it’s best to find the times when multiple countries markets are trading at the same time.  Every Forex market in the world operates from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in their respective time zones.  In order to take advantage of the chance of many trades developing, one needs to look at when the Forex market times in different countries overlap.  In the overlapping times when multiple markets are open, generally there is the most volume and pip movement.

For instance, it is best to trade the EUR/USD, USD/CHF, or GBP/USD between 8am EST and 12pm EST because the US market is just opening at 8am EST while the European market is finishing up for the day. Another good time to trade is in the middle of the night from 1am EST to 3am EST as many trades develop as the Asian markets are closing and the European markets are opening.  The Australian and Asian Markets overlap between 7pm and 10pm EST as well which offer good opportunities.  Generally speaking, one can just shut off their computer and not bother looking for trades from 4pm-6pm EST as the US markets close and there are no overlapping markets in those times, so although there may be profitable trades one could enter, the volume is much lower and it is far less likely great trades will develop.   The Canadian market does not play a big role in affecting the markets so just trade along with the US market times when the European, Asian, or Australian markets are open.  

Many currency pairs tend to trend in the same direction (parallel) or opposite directions (inversely).  Traders can use this information to plan to trade more than one pair knowing that they have a high probability of moving in the same or inverse direction.  

The general rule is that these pairs listed below tend to trend in parallel relationships.  The Euro and Cable tend to move together the most.
EUR/USD and GBP/USD
USD/CHF and USD/JPY
AUD/USD and NZQ/USD

And, these pairs below tend to move inversely the most.  The Euro and the Swissy tend to move inversely the most.
EUR/USD and USD/CHF
GBP/USD and USD/JPY
AUD/USD and USD/CAD

Lastly, remember that when trading, Bulls and Bears make money, but pigs get slaughtered.  Don’t be too greedy.  Trade with proper equity management and never risk more than 2% of your trading account on a single trade.  Look for 10%-30% pip gains and move on to the next trades.  Building small consistent profits will add up to large long-term gains.  Trade during times when markets overlap, and use information on parallel and inverse relationships to determine whether or not to enter on trades on multiple currency pairs at the same time.

Wishing You Success!

Uk Forex Brokers Mt4 – Finding Forex Brokers That Don’t Requote

Uk Forex Brokers Mt4 – Finding Forex Brokers That Don’t Requote

Uk Forex Brokers Mt4

It is important when choosing a forex broker, to decide upon your preferred trading strategy. What do I mean by this? I get forex related questions asked all the time and the top forex question has to be “What trading software/bot/auto trader will make me the most money?”.

Curiously enough this question generally comes from would-be forex traders who have never traded before…novice traders!

This is trading suicide, if you have the perception that you can just plug-in an expert advisor/ea into MT4 (Metatrader 4) or even MT5 (Metatrader 5) and overnight you will be a forex millionaire. My advice to these kind of questions is try manual forex trading first.

It’s easy and you don’t have to be a stock broker, a financial whiz kid or financially knowledgeable. Go and choose a forex broker and trade manually for a while, just watch the charts and when the currency pairs charts are at their lowest point, open a “buy” trade, when the chart raises up, your “buy” trade will create profit. Once the chart is at the top open a new forex trade as a “sell” and yes, you have guessed it, when the chart falls, you will receive profit on your forex trade.

Don’t forget to close your trades when you have enough profit and my top tip is don’t be greedy! It is better to trade multiple forex lots and make small amounts of profit, than hold out for a large profit trade which could turn the other way and wipe you out. Uk Forex Brokers Mt4

Also, if you have a position or trade that is in the minus figures, open a trade in the opposite direction e.g. a buy or a sell and this might counter-act your loss.

Once you have learnt how to trade forex then you can look for an automatic trading robot. There are loads to choose from fapturbo, ibybot and many more and they all do very different tasks including hedging and scalping.

Then you need to find the best forex broker for scalping or a forex broker that will allow your ea/expert advisor to run with minimum hassles. You will find that some brokers perform re-quotes, this is a method used by the brokers to try to combat the forex scalping software. What this means is when you are scalping, you are trying to open and close positions very quickly, what the broker does is stall this transaction by re-quoting, thus saving or making a few pips/points/spread on the order, which in turn can totally throw your scalping software.

Sometimes this re-quote is a genuine delay between your ISP and the trading sever, so always check your internet connection and firewall settings if you are having regular forex requoting issues.

I have been trading forex both manually and with forex autotrading software for over 3 years and of the 15 brokers I have been with, here is a breakdown of the better brokers that allow scalping and don’t re-quote (often). Uk Forex Brokers Mt4

Pips And Profits: The Name Of The Forex Game

Pips And Profits: The Name Of The Forex Game

For the most part, forex robots can help traders, particularly novice traders, make pips in the forex market.

Forex robots are great for new traders just getting their feet wet in the market or for investors that simply cannot devote the time to trading several hours a day. And products that are comparable to forex robots don’t really exist in other asset classes. There are a few stock trading robots, but that industry has more crude, less reliable products than the fores world does. Many stock robots only trade penny stocks and that’s like swimming with the sharks. The right forex robot can help traders level the playing field when competing against the sophisticated systems used by banks and hedge funds. No stock robot does that.

Do Forex Robots Guarantee Profits?

Quite simply, the smart forex robot developers will not promise you pips. In the U.S. to make such claims is illegal and it’s probably forbidden in other countries as well. What the folks behind forex robots do is make claims about the accuracy of their product, going so far as to say, in some instances, that their robot wins on 96% of its trades.

Let’s be clear. Most forex robots are fine products, but there is no holly grail among them to stuff your account with so many pips that you’ll never need to work another day in your life. It’s certainly possible to supplement your income with forex trading and some traders make it far enough that trading is their only source of income. That’s the ultimate goal, but don’t soley rely on a forex robot to get you there. Forex robots should be just one part of your overall forex trading strategy. And remember the only way to discover a forex robot’s virtues and problems is by testing it in a live account.

Know What You’re Getting Into

There are many factors for potential buyers of forex robots to consider. Trading style, pairs traded, amount of trades, price, customer service, ease of use and other factors needed to be evaluated by the trader. While all that may sound daunting, remember the whole reason to consider a forex robot is to boost your bottom line. The point is forex trading can be tricky, but your forex robot should not trick you. A forex robot should be a reliable, easy-to-use part of your pip generating arsenal. Forex robots are not mysterious beast, but they can put you on your way to becoming a profitable forex trader and that’s what you got into the game for, isn’t it?

Retired Canadian Economist. My main activity since Winter 2006 is trading Forex. I’ve been trading currencies online with the help of EA’s (BTW, the best source for EAs is www.forex-robots.com) and I currently manage trading accounts at two Forex brokers in US and in UK respectively

What is the simplest forex trading strategy which applicable for beginner?

August 30th, 2010 by Bank Loan | No Comments | Filed in Forex

Question by goldina searle: What is the simplest forex trading strategy which applicable for beginner?
Forex market is complicated but still challenging to get cash from there. It’s about how to trade in this market for long term.

Best answer:

Answer by livvyy marcucci
If you’re a potential investment player who’d like to make it big in the business and financial world, then you go for forex trading. The FOREX, also known as the foreign exchange market is one of the largest financial markets in the world with and estimate of $ 1.5 trillion turn-overs every day. Here are a few strategies on how to make it big in the forex market.

Strategy One: Know your market. The best way to get advantage, earn profit and minimize losses is to familiarize yourself with the market and how the whole system works. In the forex market, the players are usually commercial banks, central banks and firms involved in foreign trade, investment funds, broker companies and other private individuals with large capital. With the speed and high liquidity of asset, most companies engage in this business than in any other trading venture. Transactions are done in a jiffy; there are no membership fees and there is always the allure and promise of big, big profit.

Trading is done in pairs. The most commonly traded currencies are usually the US Dollar, Japanese Yen, Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar and the Swiss Franc. The more commonly traded currency pairs are the US Dollar and the Japanese Yen, the Euro and the US Dollar, the Swiss Franc and the US Dollar. In Forex trading, everything is speculative and virtual. There is no actual product being sold or bought. The activity mostly consists of computed entries made on the value of one currency against another. Say for example, you can buy Euros with US Dollar, hoping that the Euro will increase it value. Once its value rises, you can sell the Euro again, thus earning you profit.

Strategy Two: Learn the language. There are three concepts you need to know in the currency market. Pips refer to the increase of one hundredth of a percent of the value of the currency pair you are trading. Usually each pip has a value of $ 10 or $ 1. Volume is the quantity or amount of money being traded at one particular time in the market. Buying is the acquisition of a particular currency. A trader buys with the hopes that the price of the currency will increase. Selling is putting a currency up for grabs in the market because of a potential or possibility of a decrease in its value. There are also two techniques of analysis usually used in this business – the fundamental and the technical analysis. Technical analysis is usually used by small and medium players. Here, the primary point of analysis revolves on the price. Fundamental analysis, on the other hand, is used by bigger companies and players with higher capital as it involves looking at the other factors affecting the value of a particular currency. In this type of analysis, the player also looks at the situation of the country, particularly issues like political stability, inflation rate, unemployment rate, and tax policies as these are seen to have an effect on the currency’s value.

Strategy Three: Develop a sound trading strategy. Your trading strategy would depend on what kind of trader you are. The basic thing with developing a trading strategy is to identify what kind of forex trader you are. A good trading strategy should lessen, if not, eliminate losses. Plan also the size of your transactions. It is better to conduct many different trades than one huge transaction. Not only does it develop discipline, but it also lessens any possible loss as only a fraction of the capital is affected. Part of a trading strategy is developing the values of discipline and proper money management.

Strategy Four: Practice. Try paper trading, a great way to practice your skills, see how the market works and get acquainted with the software and tools being used. There are online brokers who allow free paper trades, which allows practice and experience before doing it with real money.

Strategy Five: Choose the right forex dealer. Make sure that they are regulated by the law. Take not of dealers with investment schemes that give out too-good-to-be-true-just-false-hopes promises. Look at investment offers before getting started.

Forex trading may seem easy and manageable. But the emotional stress, the demands and challenges of being a forex trader requires more than just the knowledge of the market. It requires more than just a keen and sensible head for business. It’s all about a gameplan, a strategy.
