Where your journey starts…

So you want to make a living trading the forex market ?

FOREX stands for FOREign eXchange, and is the largest and most active market in the world. To put it simple, the forex market is where you buy and sell currencies and try to make a profit by correctly predicting the increase or decrease in the exchange rates.

Let me make it clear from the start, forex trading is not easy, it requires a lot of hard work, countless hours put into reading, testing, etc, but once you reach that level where you make money(only 5% of forex traders do, then you’ve got it made. Only then can you think about quitting you day job, and the dream mansion you’re about to buy). Until you reach that level where you are making constant profit( and by this I mean a % ROI / month, which of course is above 3). If you make at least 4% per month you’re great. That equals in almost 50% per year. That’s a very impressive return on investment. Some of the world’s greatest fund managers don’t make so much.  But until then…

You have to put in work. A lot of work. And when I mean a lot, I mean A LOT. You have to read constantly, watch the charts, study them, get to know how the currencies move, how they behave in certain situations(like before and after a NFP release), and so on.

I have been studying the market for more than 3 years. First account I blew was $400, and it only took me 3 weeks. $400 , $1 pip, plain old gambling J . Now I grew older and wise(I want to think), and I have read a lot, studied a lot, and tried a lot in this complex forex world. Complex for starters, because there are so many things you don’t know and so many thinks you don’t understand, but for experienced traders, forex is one of the greatest markets to trade.

The purpose of this blog is for me to share my knowledge trading forex, to show you how I will become a full-time trader(at the moment I’m still holding a part-time job),and afterwards help you become too and how you can make a lot of money as a forex trader.
