Flexible Forex Training

By Ahmad Hassam

Most of the people had never heard of trading the foreign exchange markets only a few years ago. The recent stock market crash in 2008 has made the word forex trading among the small investors popular. Much information is available online. A mass of information will become available for free. You just have to type in the word forex training in a search engine.

Most new traders begin learning on their own through a trial and error process of winning and losing. However, this is probably not the best approach to getting good forex training. These are seven forex training secrets that you should always keep in your mind when seeking good forex training:

1) Follow the rules of a simple trading approach. Keep it simple.

2) You should also learn to accept responsibility for the personal decisions and actions you take while trading. No system and no methodology are responsible for your interpretation of the markets while trading.

3) Make sure, you trade a demo account successfully before moving into the world of live trading. Once you are ready to trade, only then consider first trading a mini account with a very small amount of margin to ease you into the world of live trading. Once you have achieved success on a mini trading account, you should consider moving to the standard account where risk and profits are higher.

4) You should do your due diligence in choosing a right forex broker. You should avoid brokers that like to play games such as holding trades in slow and fast moving markets to gain advantage at your expense. Establish a live account with a forex broker known for integrity. Choice of the right forex broker will determine whether you succeed in trading or not. Always plan a trade with more than a scalpers mentality of making 1-5 pips per trade. This way a broker has ample time to cover a submitted trade or pass it onto a clearing house.

5) Invest in personal education when trading forex even when you have experience of trading other markets. The forex is a totally different industry with much more volatility than other markets. When selecting a mentor to assist you in developing the skills necessary to survive trading the forex and make profit, make sure the mentoring person is walking the talk.

6) Only disciplined traders succeed in the long run. Learn self discipline as a forex trader. The greatest distance to overcome in each trade is between the ears. Attitude is everything in the markets.

7) Persevere in the markets. Dont give up! It is necessary to just hang in there even if it takes times to trade the demo account and a mini account. All too often, traders go live way too soon and lose their money because they have skipped the necessary steps. - 23305
