Make Lots Of Money No Matter Which Direction The Forex Market Moves

A preceding article in this 7 article series covered how a no stop loss Forex trading system was developed due to the frustration of having stops being triggered all the time. The trading rule we are trying to ignore is "always have a stop loss when trading the Currency market".

The next strange phenomenon that we will investigate is making gains from always being in a position to cash in on whichever move, in every direction which the price goes. We are trying to disprove the concept that one has to predict the direction that the Forex market is going in to make money.

To be in an able to cash in positively all the time means that should the price goes up you will cash in that transaction at a gain and if it goes south you will also be in a position to cash that transaction in at a gain. First of all logic should now be giving you a hint that in order to do that you would have to have a buy and a sell deal active at the same time all the time. The immediate reaction to this is - How on earth can you make gains from having a buy and sell transactions active at the same time. Surely, this is completely hedged situation. There is a saying in the currency market:- Only the online forex broker makes money when you are in a buy and sell deal in the identical currency at the time. We will refute this belief too.

Before we explore how traders are amassing fortunes with this system let's have a look at the benefits of having a buy and a sell transaction active at the same time (hedging). The loss on the one makes up for the profit in the other. It is becoming clearer why this system is called the "no stop, hedged currency trading system isn't it? Transactions are fully or partially hedged when making use of this technique which makes the requirement for a stop loss redundant.

Let's review the currency markets and the way the price glides its way over our currency trading charts. You will see that with the exclusion of definite trends due to news, economic and political events the price vibrates is a undulating way 90% of the time. It either trades sideways or in a lazy upward or downward trending way. This gives us our first clue of how one can make lots of money from buying and selling at the same time. The price tends to revisit an earlier price level over and over again. If you cash in your profitable deals at these price levels you are likely to see the same deal repeating itself over and over again and you would/can therefore also cash in over and over again. Because there are many of these levels you would end up cashing in both your buy transactions and sell transactions at a profit continuously thereby repeating the same transaction over and over again.

So far we have been discussing high level trading concepts used by the no stop, hedged, forex trading grid technique (notice the new word in the system title). In the next article we will explain the how to make lots of cash trading these repetitive deals with no stops in this spiky, wavy currency market.

Trading Forex- GBP-JPY 2008 update. by Mike P. Kulej

On the heels of massive Yen rally in summer 2007, later named by main stream press the "unwind of the carry trade",we published an article about anticipated direction of GBP-JPY. For details please see previous writing "Trading Forex- GBP-JPY outlook". The future outlined there have come to fruition and it's time to take a look next possible moves for this cross. Comparing to other popular currency pairs, GBP-JPY is relatively illiquid. This is reflected in its wide spread of 7-8 pips on most popular trading platforms. It does not compare favorably with EUR-USD 2 pips, USD-JPY 2-3 pips or even GBP-USD 3-4 pips with most brokers. It is, however, significantly less than 10-15 pips just few years ago.

Despite these limitations, GBP-JPY remains one of preferred crosses for speculators. One of the reasons is large daily trading range. Moves over 200-300 pips seem to be the norm and 500 + pips daily fluctuations certainly don't raise anyone's eyebrows. And let's not forget the 1000 pips day last summer. On top of that, in the current environment of relatively strong Yen, those pips have high value. There is potential for large gains, and losses, on daily bases. Speculative popularity of this pair certainly is not going to dwindle any time soon.

As of this writing GBP-JPY is at about 207.00 level, after bouncing from 192.50, the low of most recent sell off. For the time being a slow upward movement is expected, reaching maybe as high as 215.00 over next few months, or sometimes this summer. Once that is completed, one more leg down should finish longer term bearish move. Previous swings suggest a target of 185.00 or so. Chart development suggest a steady, measured price movement, rather than the kind of violent swings from last summer or even earlier this year. It's reasonable to place this "anticipated low" very late this year or beginning of 2009. After that a very strong, and prolonged, bull market should resume.

This particular scenario is dictated more by very long term charts and fundamentals pertaining to GBP. Yen is notoriously more unpredictable. That is true to both technical as well as fundamental analysis of Japanese currency. Of course, any large scale, unexpected events can farther complicate this outlook.

No matter what happens, GBP-JPY is sure to remain one of the favorite speculative instruments the world over. Even if one trades it only on daily bases, it doesn't hurt to have some long term possible scenarios mapped out.

Trading the forex market efficiently by Roxana Kusuma

Tradind the Forex market is one of the best opportunities someone have nowadays to work from home and make a nice income. The problem is that not so many people have the right tools, right data, and most important , the time to do it right. Lately, I saw on the market lots of tools as forex robots systems , some good, other not so good, which could help you trade the forex market more easily.

Today , any trader can get graphs of currency updated every single minute of the day .Unfortunatelly, most of the people out there who trade the forex market are average Joe’working from home who is overwhelmed with informations ,especially with the new internet explosion, and who couldn’t choose and doesn’t know how to apply the data he got it. That’s why I do recommend for those of these to have an software to help them with the endless piles of pages and make their work more efficient.

There are many automated forex currency software on the market, however one of the most easy to use that I found it, is the Forex Assassin system, a system very easy ,yet efficient to use. It utilizes a completely time driven strategy that uses time zones. Users can adjust their trading times to what suit them , thus being very good for people with day time jobs.You just need to find the information egarding the price of the currency pairs you would like to use, input them into the spreadsheet which was given to you, and after that the system just give you the results of profit and the loss margin which you choose.

The Forex Assassin formula could help you reduce the stress and fear of trading one of the most competitive market , the forex market and be one of the winners.
