ADVICE:

Hi, Gypsy here.... 8^)

Most of us who are successful traders went broke at one time or another; but if youre still trading, chances are, you have learned the valuable lesson of money management. One thing I want to point out that is just as important and goes hand in hand with money management is over trading!!!!!

Even if you have the best money management skills, and over trade chances are, youre still going to end up as broke as the day you were born....as time goes on....I will share more with this blog..for now institute good Money Management and dont Over Trading your account.. Have a wonderful evening, and good luck in your trades......

Strategy:

For the beginner day traders out there. One of my favorite most basic trades is when the market has an extreme move, it will almost always drift back towards the pivot point as we get near the end of the day.

For example, if the market rallies big, around 10:30 -12:30 Ill short the SP selling usually an hour before the close. Rarely the last 45 minutes as we almost never trade the last 45 minutes or the first 30 minutes of any session.
Crude O.

Advice:

Create a game plan and act accordingly. Preserve wealth, drill and rehearse on your demo account. Find a better way to trade, through continual education. Under no circumstances do you ever truly give up FOREX. If you need help, find it! There are advisers out there who are willing to help you be successful. NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!! NEVER SURRENDER!!!! REST IF YOU MUST!!!!!! PRACTICE DRILL AND REHEARSE ON A DEMO, BUT DONT QUIT!!!!!!!!!!

This blog is not in anyway an enticement or solicitation to trade in the Forex Market. These tips are for informational purposes only and are not to be substituted for legal advice or council. I have written this blog in hopes that it will help you to avoid some of the terrifying pitfalls I had in the Forex Market before I learned better.

Risk Disclosure: Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you need for living expenses and cannot afford to lose.

CONFIDENCE ! - forex trading learning books

CONFIDENCE ! ~ forex trading learning books

Confidence, is a key ingredient in successful trading.

What do you need confidence in????? You need confident in your ability, and you need confidence in your strategy.

But I have gotten it wrong so much.

So what I went broke, it is ok. You can do this!!!! (^_^)

How do I start to rebuild??????

You start by taking a deep breathe, taking a break and investing in more education.

I have already gotten education till my head is going to fall off, and I still cant get it right. I JUST WANT TO QUIT!

That is exactly why you need to take a break, if you quit now, you will miss out on how good it feels to win.

Let me explain something, the market will give you plenty of opportunities to make profit. Every trader has losing trades. The successful traders have more winning trades. You just have to learn to take trades that are going to put the odds in your favor. You only have to win most of the times. If you lose, the market is generous and will give you another chance to try again

Trust me, you can do this. Part of your biggest challenge is overcoming the feeling of hopelessness that comes from the idea that you have failed.

YOU HAVE NOT FAILED, you didnt meet your goal, but it is ok. You just discovered how not to do things, and now you are ready to learn a better way (SMILE). I know it is hard now, but if you hang in here with me, I assure you that it will be ok.

Do you still have money in your account?

Yes, but it is just a little.......

Great, leave it alone. I want you to open up a demo or practice account, and practice on it.

I already did that 2 months before I opened my real account.

I went broke two times and almost three, so trust me here. Even though I am very profitable now, I still open a practice account to practice new strategies.

I want you to go to your library and pick up Steve Nisons books:
Beyond Candlesticks and/or Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques.
Either book is a good place to start.

If you cant find it yet, go to my youtube channel and look at my favorites. I have uploaded lessons there on candlestick trading, it is a good place to start, but the books are better.

Do you have an understanding of a lot of your indicators?

I understand them pretty well. I know you dont really use them, do I need to stop using them?

No, they are important for giving you an idea where price might go. Just dont over do it.

I want you to start where most traders should start and that is with the basics, it is so critical for traders to understand where price might reverse on them.

Yes, I can see now that is how I ended up with losing trades, because I would start out good many times and ended up losing and it would make me madder than hell.

We dont want you to be madder than hell, we want you to win at this game. Forex is a zero sum game, it has no mercy, winner take all. YOU CAN BE THAT WINNER!

Once you learn your patterns and understand more of the market psychology, then I want you to practice only on your demo account until you build your confidence back. Forex is like Poker, in that, it is a game where the ones with the confidence will go home with the pot!!!!!!!

I also want you to remind yourself often that you are not that same losing trader, and that you have grown. You have got to tell yourself that or those ghost (of your losing days) in your head will scare you to death. Those past fears will keep you out of good profitable trades which you end up kicking yourself for later.

Listen to me. YOU CAN GO LONG, YOU CAN GO SHORT!!! YOU ARE NOT JUST A BULL OR A BEAR, YOU ARE A CHAMELEON AND CAN CHANGE WHEN THE MARKET CHANGES!

YOU ARE NOT THAT SAME TRADER. YOU ARE BETTER AND MORE INFORMED. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!

Once you understand your reversal patterns, then you can combine them with what you already know. The practice on your demo account will only lend to your confidence.

When you are ready, you can start back on your real account; but make small short trades. Since you dont have much money left, trade mini if you can.

I only have a mini account.

Great, then we are in business!

Take small trades on reversal signals, but only in the direction of your trend. This will help your confidence, and help you realize that this game is not rocket science, though it can be tricky. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

Finally come to your platform well rested, if you are fighting with your love, dont trade because a more well rested focused trader is going to take your money.

In order to trade successfully you must identify your trend, be able to read your chart, wait for proper market set-ups, recognize reversal patterns, have confidence in your ability to trade successfully and be focus. My dear Friend, never stop learning and growing the market is always teaching a new lesson

You know where to reach my if you have any questions and I will help you all that I can, I promise (^_^). It will be ok, we can do this together.

HANG IN THERE!
