The Key To Changing Into A Forex Trader
http://bit.ly/wWvVOq
With a title like that, you may be expecting me to bare some secret from the inner-circle of professional foreign exchange traders. Unfortunately, there isn't any such key, or keyhole for what it's worth. The hidden secret to turning into a professional foreign exchange trader, to my mind, is practice, practice, and more practice. It's the same as any other art form or sport or musical instrument: the more you practice and hone your abilities, the better you get at it. You would not expect to pick up a guitar for the 1st time and play like Jimi Hendrix any more than you'd expect to play golf for the first time and play a round of ten under par. But for whatever reason, people new to foreign exchange trading frequently expect that they are going to be making millions in their first year. It is simply not going to occur. Nonetheless the interesting news is that practice really does make perfect (or at the very least makes you competent). The more time that you spend looking at charts and analyzing the markets, the more adept you'll become at envisioning future changes in price. After a bit, you begin to get a feel and rhythm of the markets. Many traders frequently call this "being in sync with the markets". There also are many technical things you will need to learn on the way; and you'll potentially screw up as you are learning and lose a few bucks (or pounds or whatever currency your trading bank is financed with) along the way. However, try to think of these losses as your fees for teaching. We are not getting anything for free and an education in foreign exchange trading isn't different I am afraid. Take the losses and learn from them, because practice makes perfect; and one day, you simply might learn enough to become a pro forex trader and be financially free.
