I wanted to show you how to trade currency online smartly. This is a tough business and I know most people I hear from have been sold on this idea of quick riches and a 24hr trading period. If only it was that simple. This is a tough business on a global market place. You're going to be competing along side other individuals and huge banks. You have to know what you're doing or you'll lose all your money. You can't wing it. You can't know the basics and make it some profits. This is a business of little things. I'll show you a little of what I've learned over my time trading.
The news is a big part of predicting the markets and it is an essential part of my daily routine. The best time to trade is when it the market is normal. You don't want to trade during the calm before the storm. Economic news usually is scheduled to come out. It is the news stories about GDP, unemployment, interest rates, etc. Before one of these highly anticipated news stories, you'll experience the calm. After they're released, the storm. Don't ever trade during these times because the market doesn't "make sense" at that time.
A big skill to develop is reading candlestick graphs. That is the most common way of viewing currency graphs because it contains the most information and still looks organized. A lot of people just memorize different scenarios, but that isn't good enough. Being able to look at any graph and instantly know what to expect is the key to success in this business.
