September 7, 2008

If you are just starting out in currency trading, or looking to sharpen your trading skills, there are plenty of currency trading courses to choose from - and this article will help you find the information you need to make big profits.

One advantage of the Internet, is that most of the information is available free of charge – once you know what to look for, you’re all set.

Lets put together a personalized currency-trading course, to help you make the big profits you desire.

First, a Word of Caution!

There are plenty of vendors on the net selling currency trading courses, that claim 90% accuracy, and promise that you can make hundreds of thousands a year with no effort. A word of advice - don’t buy them!

A trading method is easy to put together, and here we will show you how to put one together for free.

Technical Analysis

Currencies trend well - and the big trends can last for many months, or even years.

Your aim is to lock into, and hold these trends for profits. All the information you need to know about technical analysis, is free on the net - so do your homework

A Simple Method that’s made Millions

The most effective method for trading currencies is one based on a breakout philosophy.

This method has worked for years - and it will continue to work - if you read about it, you’ll understand why – it’s simple to understand, and simple to trade.

Don’t be deceived by its simplicity - many of the worlds top traders, including the legendary turtles, made millions from it - and so have many others.

You need filters on a breakout, and the best two are Bollinger bands, and stochastics - to confirm trades.

NOW THE IMPORTANT BIT

The above trading method will work - and you will understand it, so you should have confidence in it - but the major problem for all traders is discipline.

In your currency-trading course, you need some motivation, and knowledge on the importance of discipline.

Again you don’t need to buy an over priced course - you can simply buy some books from some of the world’s top traders.

Unlike many vendors who have claimed to have found the route to huge profits, (and yet still sell courses) you can learn from traders who have been there, done it - and made millions.

A few good books from the great traders will give you far better value - here are some of the best:

Market Wizards & The New Market Wizards – Jack D Shwager – excellent interviews with some of the best traders of all time.

Also these books:

Larry Williams – any of his books - a great read, and a trading legend

Jake Bernstein – the best part about his books, are his insight into the minds of traders - all his books are worth a read.

Trader Vic - Vic Sperendeo – a trading legend. A great book for novice, or pro covering psychology, money management and strategy

Read the above books and combine them with the trading method given here - and you’re on your way to making big trading profits.

Buying a Ready Made Course

We haven’t recommended an actual course to buy - because you can get all the information you need for free on the net, and from books. Now, that’s not to say there aren’t any good courses out there - just do the following:

1. Ignore courses that promise 90% accuracy, etc. - Look for courses that have realistic sales copy.

2. Many good courses give free trials - so take your time and shop around.

3. Try and find out the vendor’s background - and look to see if they’ve made any money from their own methods.

Go with your gut feeling - and don’t get caught up in the hype of sales copy.
