If you have ever wondered how you could trade the Forex marker while controlling and reducing the risks involved in it, then this article is right for you. Here you will find some steps that you as the Forex trader could take in order to better protect your investment in this financial market.
If you are new to this financial market, then first of all you have to understand that your long term survival success solely depends on a cautious approach to the market from the very beginning. Among all other things, it means that the percentage of margin that put at risk in every trade has to be reasonable. Due to this reason, it is recommended to limit the amount of money that you put at risk. Generally, what is reasonable to one person could have completely different meaning to the other one.
Without taking into the account the amount of available margin in the account of the Forex trader, the percentage traded has not be huge as to greatly exhaust the trading resources of a trade turns unfavorable to you. A lot of successful Forex traders refuse to exceed one percent of the tradable margin while executing their orders while other traders could easily go high s ten percent. Putting the amount higher than 10 per cent at risk probably will qualify as aggressive way of trading.

A conservative application of the leverage has to be the practice of every new Forex trader without any doubts.
Because the confidence and proficiency levels grow, it is possible to use much higher levels of the leverage. Today a lot of Forex brokers offer internet based trading platforms which allow the Forex trader to pre-choose the needed amount of the leverage. Depending on the Forex broker, the leverage allowed could go as high as 400:1. The average maximum level of the leverage that is allowed by the majority of the internet Forex brokers is closer to 100:1.
Probably you want to consider using such built-in safety feature as the stop loss, limit stop and trailing stop in order to help control the risk. A stop loss is a feature that is offered by virtually all internet Forex trading platforms. It allows you to pre-determine at which levels of the price your trade will automatically closed.

Techniques On The Forex Market.
Written by daniboy on 21 May 2012 – 7:22 am -Hearing the first time about trade on the Forex market many people have a feeling of something complicated and obscure. In real the things are much more simple. You really need to know and be good at many things. And these knowledge is available for a person with secondary education who can use a computer.
The process of pricing on the Forex market has casual character. But considering the fact that people work on this market, and people have emotions and memory, you can affirm that all these processes have aftereffect. Simply speaking antecedent movement of prices spontaneously influence on the further movement.
It is the presence of antecedent that causes many possibilities to make forecasts on the financial markets. For example, having in mind that after lowering to a certain level prices started growing, most likely traders will consider the variant of purchasing when prices get this level again.
Anyway you should master techniques of work on the Forex market in order you want your analysis and forecasts to come true and to get larger profit.
The basic components of techniques are:
*fundamental analysis
*technical analysis
*classic analysis of graphics
*analysis of indicators
*capital management
* stock psychology
Let’s look through every component.
Fundamental analysis studies conduct of prices on the macroeconomic level. The basis of fundamental analysis is knowledge about macroeconomic life of the society and its influence on prices’ dynamic. Factors, that reflect the condition of the economy in the country, influence on exchange rate.
The second component of the technique on the Forex market is technical analysis that is divided into the classic analysis of the graphics of prices movements and the analysis of conduct of technical indicators. The main goal of technical analysis is building of forecasts of the market situation development with the help of studying movements of prices and their kinds. The defect of this kind of analysis is subjectivism, as forming figures on the graphics can be interpreted in different ways and the conclusions can be made different too. And vise a versa with the analysis of technical indicators where the readings are definitely interpreted.
The third component of the technique on the Forex market is capital management. Capital management allows to avoid excessive risks in arranging transactions on the Forex market thus to manage risks. The rules of capital management help Forex traders to choose transactions’ volume that allows to create trade tactician in a certain market situation and to define the maximal level of losses.
And finally psychology on the market. Emotions is the main “enemy” of any Forex trader. It is emotions that can take down all the efforts on analyzing of the Forex market. Learning the basis of stock psychology will help to a trader to take his/her emotions under control and to have an intelligent approach with every transaction.
Theory will always be theory, but you must remember that stock technique is not an exact science. No one knows the real volume of the market, that’s why you can learn the market for a very long time. You need reasonable sufficiency.
As in every other niche of life foreign exchange market needs some education.
Surely, one can start forex investment and get quite successful in it. However sooner or later the losses will come. This is when one might think “Why didn’t I start with a good forex trading education?”

Trends And Types Of Graphics Of The Forex Market.
Written by daniboy on 20 May 2012 – 7:22 pm -Technical analysis is the research of the market dynamics by the use of graphics in order to predict the future direction of the prices movement.
1. Index (rate or price) takes everything into account. Any factor that influence on a price (economic, political or psychological) has already been taken into account by the market and has been included to the price. That’s why you need to study the graphic of the price to make predictions.
2. The movement of the prices submits to the trends (directions of the prices’ movements). So, making graphics of prices’ dynamic you set a goal to identify these trends on the early phases of their development in order to trade following its direction There are three types of trends on the market.
The basic trend has three phases. The first phase or the phase of accumulation, becomes when the most informed and farseeing investors start buying, as all inauspicious economic information has already been considerate by the market.
The seconds phase becomes when those who use technical methods of following trends come to the game. Economic information becomes more optimistic.
The trend comes to its third or final phase when the general public comes to the game and the buying craze starts on the market that is stirring up with the communications. The economic forecasts are full of optimism. The speculation volume is increasing. At this moment the informed investors, who were “saving” at the end of the previous trend, when no one wanted to “save”, start “spreading”. The trend comes to its end.
If the market gives an important signal, indexes confirm each other. Any important signal about the growing or falling of rates on the market, passes in the meanings of both indexes.
The trade volume must confirm the trend character. The volume must rise to the direction of the basic trend. The trends “lives” till it has evident signals that the trend has been changed.
The basic types of graphics.
1. Line graphics. On a line graphic the closing price for every next period is only marked. They are recommended for short periods (for some minutes)
2. Segment graphics (bars). On a bar the maximum price is marked (the top point of the column), minimal price (The lower point of the column), the price of opening (a dash on the left side of the column) and the price of closing (a dash on the right side of the column). It is recommended for time periods of 5 and more minutes.
3. Crisscross. There is no axes of time. A new column of prices is being built after the other direction of dynamic appears. You draw a cross if the prices have become lower for certain amount of units, and you draw zero if the prices have risen for certain amount of units.
4. Arithmetical and logarithmic scales. It is comfortable to use logarithmic scale if you analyze long lasting trends.
5. Volume graphics.
