Price Action Forex Setups
My daily forex strategy is somethign that I’ve been using for a few years now. If you have something that works, always take the time to do it again and again. That’s really the key to success. This market is very large and there is a lot of money to be earned, but there is also a lot of money to be lost if you’re not careful. If you’re ready to learn, than I’ll share with you the methods I use to help keep myself in profit.
What is the most important thing to watch?
You’re going to have to develop a method for figuring out when the market is going to act odd. All those great methods of analysis you learn don’t apply when the market gets volatile. This is where most people end up losing all their money. I found the best way to predict volatile behavior is to identify what it is. It all comes back to economic news. This type of news is always announced at scheduled times, so that makes it a lot easier to manage, but pay particular attention to the information about the Federal Reserve or any other central bank because they’ll have the biggest effect.
How technical does your trading get?
I think when you make this overly technical, you just end up causing problems for yourself. My daily forex strategy is to keep things simple and follow the same simple routine every single day. This keeps my head in the right place and I don’t have to worry about being confused. After you do the same profit making tasks a thousand times it becomes second nature.
How do you know if a trading technique works?
I think you can really take advantage of a demo account. It’s not meant to be used to see if you can get rich fast, but to determine the ability of your tasks and the way you look at things. I usually make time in my daily forex strategy to use the demo software to get good practice.
This basically breaks down my daily forex strategy for all of you to use. It consists of being up to date on current events, keeping it simple and practicing before using my money.

Here some answer the question about forex strategy
Has anyone tried the strategy depot forex strategy's?
Has anyone tried the strategy's from http://www.strategydepot.com/ ? It's $39.95 a month to get access to all the strategy's, ebooks and such. I am looking for a strategy and I have not come across single one, which is explained in simple terms of given enough detail, for free. So don't start going at me for not being able to find a good, simple strategy for free, cus there ain't none.
If you have tried any strategies from said site, then let me know how many winning trades you had and let me know if he uses crazy lingo, like rallies(jusy how the hell is anyone who is new meant to know what a rally means…) and such. Is this site a good for someone who is new to trading?

Take a year to learn as much as you can and then go very slowly. Anyone that suggests to you that there is a simple way to invest in FX that "works" is either not telling the truth or is ignorant.
Keep in mind that 95% of all new traders lose most of their money in the first 3 months of trading FX. Surely the success rate would be higher if there were any "formulas" that really worked.

Asking people for a simple Forex strategy is like asking people if they have a simple method for playing poker that will allow you to win playing poker experts. There is no simple Forex strategy that works.
Forex is what we call a "zero sum" game. You are making a bet with someone else about whether a currency will rise or fall. For every winner there has to be a loser. If you are smarter than the average player, you may make money. If you are dumber than the average player, you are likely to lose money. Most of the people making the "bets" in Forex are highly trained professionals at banks and other institutions. You are unlikely to beat them at this game using a "simple" strategy.
Actually Forex is not quite a zero sum game. It's a slightly negative sum game as the Forex broker takes a small percentage each time in the spread. It's a small amount but over a hundred trades, it ends up being a considerable amount of money. So the average player is likely to lose money, and remember the average player is a highly trained professional and probably smarter than you.
There is a lot of luck in Forex, and if you play it, you will have some periods of time where you make money. This is usually because you are having a lucky streak, not because you have suddenly become an expert Forex player. However, most people are unwilling to admit their success is due to luck. They become convinced they have a system that works, and lose a lot of money trying to refine it.
Further complicating the problem is the large number of Forex scams on the internet. Most Forex websites are of questionable honesty. You will find many people on the Internet that claim they made a lot of money using Forex. They are usually liars trying to make money. They will say: "Go to Forexcrap . com/q2347." The "q2347" is a signal to the Forexcrap site that you are being referred to them by "q2347." If they sell something to you, "q2347" gets a kickback. These coded signals can be hidden by different methods in the link. Other people will refer you to their own private website or blog for the purpose of trying to get money off you.
I would recommend not trying to do Forex at all, unless you are a trained professional. It's like playing poker with people better than you, with the house constantly taking a small percentage from the pot.

A great forex system means you need to constantly have high probability trades. You also need to be concerned with the currency pairs in real time. Hopefully this blog can help. http://www.whatisforextrading.com Remember, no system will be full proof, so be cautios about the claims some trading systems make.

Forex futures trading is a fluctuating (exciting) game, but these are some currency trades I'm watching right now:
- USD / JPY
- AUD / USD
- USD / CAD
- EUR / JPY
- GBP / JPY
- EUR / GBP
For some reason (call it a strategy if you want) I'm watching GBP / JPY. EUR / JPY too has seems to be showing some interesting movements…. but I don't want to give anyone any ideas. Mine your data, use the right tools, and work fast.
The futures market is about speed (and profit). Factor in historical currency trends and the nature of the global political landscape. That's the best strategy in forex futures trading.

Candlesticks are the best indicators in the world. They're good for candlestick formation, elliot wave formation, and trend-line breakout. By mastering these 3 things, you should be able to break-even in Forex. To really make money though, you'll have to master money management.

I like Oanda for a starting broker because you can trade with as little as 1 cent a pip on the line, of course youll only be making 1 cent a pip. then as you improve you can step it up a penny or a dime or what ever.
The only bad thing about them is 50:1 leverage and there spread gets very wide during news times.
I also agree with babypips good site.
a short but very good ebook
http://www.robbooker.com/books/Strategy10.pdf
Here is a good site to learn about the indicators. Just look all over it.

Use Oanda as a demo account. It doesn't expire so you will have as long as you need to practice.
