How to Win With Forex Training

By Jacob Tremblay

The key to succeeding with Forex, just like in anything else in life, is to get the proper training. Common wisdom is that who you know is more important then what you know, but in some cases that's just not true. Does it matter who you know when you're trying to drive your car, or to paint a picture? No, of course not. Trading is a skill like anything else. To get good at it, all you need is the time, the materials... and of course the proper training.

So the obvious question is, where to get this training. Forex training is available from all sorts of sources, ranging from slim books of tips and tricks, to huge week-long seminars filled with information and practical advice. With so much on offer, it's easy to get lost and not know where to start. That's where I employ a technique I call "information overload", which has been incredibly helpful to me.

Information Overload is the process of completely immersing yourself in the data. Studying it constantly, and making it so much a part of your life that when it comes time to use your knowledge, you almost instinctively know what to do. I won't lie to you, this a hard path - but the rewards are worth it. If you just want quick, simple success, you can get a for robot, which will do most of the work for you. And yes, they do work, but for myself I prefer to be the master of my craft - not just someone using a tool.

The first thing you need to do is to find an initial information overload source. So, head out to the public library, and ask them for the Forex training books. Once you've found them, pick one randomly. And I mean completely randomly - just close your eyes and grab one, any one. Doesn't matter.

Ok, now you've got your first information source - time to start overloading it. I want you to take this book, and keep it with you. Constantly, everywhere you go, and whenever you have the time, read a little bit. Even if you only read a couple of lines, you're still working through it. Read it in your lunch break. Read it on the bus. Read it before bed - especially before bed.

You see, whatever you are thinking of immediately before falling asleep, is what gets imprinted most strongly on your mind. The purpose of all this reading is not to learn anything. The chances are, if you picked a hard book, you may not even understand it. Doesn't matter. Don't even try to figure it out. Just keep reading, passing all the info through your mind, until you finish the book.

After you've done that book, go and get another one. Keep going until you've got enough info stored away, and you're ready for the next stage. It will be obvious when you're ready - you'll start thinking about Forex randomly, you're brain producing facts and figures, information you weren't consciously aware of. You might even start dreaming about Forex - don't worry, that's a good sign!

The next part of the information overload process is active learning. Go back to your library, and take another look at the books they have there. You'll probably be surprised at how much you can already understand of them, and that's without doing any real study - just the total immersion. Allow your subconscious instinct to guide your choice, and pick out a book for you to learn from.

By now you're full of information relating to Forex, and all you have to do is bring it to life. So go through the book carefully, and whenever you see something you don't understand, investigate it. You'll find that all the data stored in your subconscious will fall into place, allowing you to breeze through with almost no difficulty.

Well, now you've got everything you need, and if you really put your mind to it, I wouldn't be surprised to see you become an skilled Forex trader with only a few weeks of study. I can also suggest, if you can spare the funds, that you find yourself a Forex training program. Something that gives you some hand-on practice, so you can experiment as you learn. In the end of course, you have everything you need inside your own head.

Best of luck to you! - 23305
