You will make less mistakes if you stick to a simple one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Forex trading isn\u2019t a get rich scheme. If someone promises you huge profits overnight, turn around and walk away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Volatility increases as markets overlap. 8AM GMT and 15PM GMT are the busiest periods to trade.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The timeframe you use determines how long to hold a trade. If you use an hourly chart you must hold for at least an hour.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When volatility sinks below its average, an explosive move is not far away. Watch out for the turns.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you want to make money in the markets you need to face your fears and you need to pull the trigger.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If emotions get in the way of your trading, try back-testing a system to improve your confidence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trading in the zone requires nothing but the three P\u2019s: preparation, practice and perseverance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You should trade small enough so that you won\u2019t go broke but large enough to make it worthwhile.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beware of EAs and black box systems that claim to beat the markets. They won\u2019t continue to win forever.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t go full time until you can consistently pay yourself a wage and you have 3 months wages saved up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The market has no personality and doesn\u2019t need to change, the way you approach the market needs to change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Beware of anyone who tries tosell you a system. If the system was that good they wouldn\u2019t be selling it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t chase unrealistic returns. 1% a day is unsustainable on so many levels. 1% a month is more realistic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Whether your goal is to make a living wage, start a fund or get hired, the important thing is to have one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Forex markets only trend 40% of the time so you must have a strategy for whatever the market is doing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Always know when central bankers are meeting and what traders are expecting them to announce.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Demo trading is useful but it doesn\u2019t prepare you for live trading. Emotions become stretched when money is on the line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you\u2019re not in the zone, trading can be torturous. If you have balance in your life, trading becomes fun again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Before you get into a trade, know where you want to get out. Have a stop in your mind or a stop in the market.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you hear yourself wishing or hoping a trade goes your way, it\u2019s time to get out and rethink your strategy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>If you\u2019ve been trading forex and you haven\u2019t learnt good money management, it\u2019s time to go back to the start.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Forex trading should be treated with the upmost professionalism.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The key to successful trading is defense, defense, defense. And when you\u2019re in position, the occasional offense.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trading requires consistency and discipline. Don\u2019t forget the numbers until you\u2019ve learnt those two things.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pivot points are important levels watched by forex traders all over the world. They should always be considered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Moving averages can be used in a variety of ways, such as smoothing volume or other technical indicators.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Simple indicators can work just as well as complicated ones so conquer those first before you move on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>RSI above 70 signals the market is overbought, below 30 the market is oversold. Learn to trade the extremes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t dwell on the past. Forget about your losses and missed opportunities and look forward to your next trade.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- 468x60, \u03b4\u03b7\u03bc\u03b9\u03bf\u03c5\u03c1\u03b3\u03ae\u03b8\u03b7\u03ba\u03b5 6\/8\/2010 --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: inline-block;
