Learn about forex charts at http://www.dailyfx.com/charts Learn Forex: http://www.dailyfx.com/forex-education Forex Chart Reading 101 Forex chart reading can be encapsulated in the idea that a trader buys in an upward bull market, and sells in a downward bear market. Knowing the direction of the trend is critical; timing the entry of a trade into that trend is also important. This presentation on how to read forex charts is designed for beginner traders and experienced traders who are new to forex trading. It outlines a simple, proven approach to interpreting forex charts. Topics include: • How to read forex charts • How to identify trading opportunities • Using charts to determine currency price trends • Different ways to trade a specific currency pair Trading the trend Knowing how to read forex charts takes the guesswork out of price prediction. One simply follows the chart. Rather than predicting what will happen, you simply react to what is happening. The trend shows what is happening; only trade the strongest trends. A trader should be able to look at a forex chart from a distance and be able to identify the trend. The first step to setting up a chart to determine the trend and entry timing is to open a daily chart with 1-year of trading data. Then add 200-period simple moving averages. Finally, add your favorite technical indicators to time the entry into the trend. To determine the trend, look at price action. If price action is above the 200-days simple moving average, it's an uptrend. If the price action is below the 200-days simple moving average, it's a downtrend. If the price action has been making higher highs and higher lows, then again it's an uptrend. Similarly, a downtrend would have lower highs and lower lows. If a forex chart reads mixed or conflicting trends, then it's best to not trade until clarity returns. A good practice is to trade more than one currency pair. Monitor price action on several pairs, and choose to trade the ones with the strongest trends for the greatest likelihood of success.

Anything like this app can’t stay free for long and they are planning to charge some amount of fee for the signing up when the app (http://www.warriorforum.com/blogs/newentrepreneur/34902-new-revolutionary-app.html) reaches certain number of members. You need to sign up before that because it is free and even if you aren’t satisfied than at least you haven’t paid any fee for it.

I don’t know what sort of algorithm they have used for https://www.facebook.com/BinaryOption-1048631025200309/app/190322544333196, but it is working amazingly well and I am earning more money than I ever made.

Problem is that there is continual reference to points being identified with a laser pointer not captured in this video; therefore much is lost with not being able to identify "right there" "right there".

If you would have followed his august 2011 usd/chf downwards as he says with the graph you would have
been crucified.Was trading .9240 a month later.Was trading at .8180 dollars when you was asked to go short.
Looks like swiss national bank intervention.Like I say follow the charts at your own risk.This sharp move
upwards would have wiped most retail accounts out in a few days. -
Define Your Goals
Before you set out on any journey, it is imperative that you have some idea of where your destination is and how you will get there. Consequently, it is imperative that you have clear goals in mind as to what you would like to achieve; you then have to be sure that your trading method is capable of achieving these goals. Each type of trading style requires a different approach and each style has a different risk profile, which requires a different attitude and approach to trade successfully. A personality mismatch will lead to stress and certain losses. -
