Forex Trading Education - 5 Common Accepted Ways to Make Money Not to Learn

Many traders work hard at their forex trading education but simply fall victim to the myths and scams that abound online. If you try and learn ideas that are proven to failure, then of course you are going to lose - but 90% of new traders do this!

Here is your list of things that you definitely don't want to learn.

1. Forex Day Trading

You can try as hard as you want to learn methods and systems but you won't win because the logic is dumb. You cannot predict what millions of traders will do in a day and all volatility is random.

If volatility is random, you can't get the odds on your side and you can't win.

2. Forex Scalping

This is simply a dumber version of day trading instead of judging within a day the time periods can be minutes! Steer clear.

3. Scientific Theories of Prediction

The logic here is that human nature is constant so we can predict what humans will do with scientific accuracy.

There is a huge industry in selling the secrets of such legends as Fibonacci, Gann and Elliot - but leaving aside they made no money with their theories, it's obviously not true...

If markets moved to a scientific theory, we would all know the price in advance and there would be no market - pretty obvious really.

Leave these theories to the far out investment community, the nave and lazy traders and see forex for what it is a game of odds.

4. Don't Learn a Complicated System!

Many traders are very clever and try and use there brain to build complicated systems.

They normally fail, because in forex you need to keep your system simple there is no link between complexity and success.

Simple systems work best, because they have fewer elements to break and are more robust.

You get judged on only one criteria in forex trading and that's your market timing and the accuracy of your trading signal - that's it, and to be accurate you don't need to be complex.

5. Learn Constantly

I read all the time you have to keep a log of your trades and study each losing trade and learn from your losses. What for?

If you forex trading system is logical, then what do learn from a loss?

You lost!

Big deal, losses are part of the game. Once you have a system you are happy with, you simply need to apply it with discipline and if you want to keep learning, you will end up chasing your tail, in search of the perfect system that doesn't exist.

I use the same forex trading strategy, I learned back in 1988 and have never changed it.

Sure, it isn't perfect but it makes money long term and that' the aim of the game.

So if you have read the above, you will know what not to learn and save yourself some time in your forex trading education and get the right education and win.

Forex Trading - The Road to Financial Freedom If You Understand These Key Points

Forex trading can be a road to financial freedom or at least a great second income but 95% of traders fail not because they can't achieve it but due to the errors contained in this article - avoid them and you can enjoy currency trading success...

Here are the key points you need to understand.

1. You are Responsible

You're on your own and there is no one who will give you success. Forget the mentors gurus and systems who say they will make you rich, they won't. You don't get on the road to financial freedom buying a system from a vendor which has never been traded, that's not life.

You need to do it on your own and if you do, then you will not only have the right knowledge to succeed but also confidence in what your doing, to have discipline to stick with your plan.

2. Why You Can Win

Everything about successful trading can be learned and this was proved to dramatic effect by trading legend Richard Dennis who taught a group people with no trading experience to trade in just 14 days and they went down as trading legends, earning hundreds of millions of dollars within a few years.

Dennis knew anyone could learn to trade and he proved it.

Sure you might not be as successful as his group but the opportunity is open to you.

3. Work Smart not Hard

You don't get rewarded for effort you get rewarded for results generated from your trading signals.

To learn to trade should take you no more than a couple of weeks and your then all set to enjoy currency trading success in around 30 minutes or less a day.

The key is getting the right knowledge and building a simple robust forex trading strategy you understand and can apply with discipline.

4. Discipline and Money Management

Are the keys to earning big profits in forex trading.

Forex offers you the ability to leverage your investment dramatically and while this creates opportunity, it also creates risk. You must play great defence first like all good football teams look after the defence and the offence will create and take opportunities.

The forex market is no place for people who want to be right all the time - it's not possible.

The market price is always right and only you can be wrong and you will be wrong a lot of the time but that wont stop you making a lot of money - just learn to keep your losses small and accept them cheerfully. Don't worry the big profits will come.

Sounds simple yes in theory but don't be deceived its still a challenge and this is obvious from the fact most traders lose but if you work smart and have the will to win forex trading offers you the road to financial freedom and its up to you to take it.
