You can’t expect every single one of your trades to be profitable, as there will be some losses; it’s inevitable. You can however ensure that your losses are kept to a minimum by developing your own trading system. Developing a system isn’t too hard, but sticking to it is another story, and that is a hurdle many inexperienced traders seem to stumble at. So how do you develop your system? First you need a trading platform, such as Easy Forex. Most trading platforms are free to sign up to and you can open up a demo account for free as well. A demo account often uses live forex rates, but since you haven’t put any capital into it, you can trade without worrying about losing your shirt. The main aim of any forex trading system is to develop an advantage by identifying trends as quickly as possible, all the while avoiding trends and blips which are false. A good way of identifying trends is by using moving averages. By using two moving averages; a fast one (averaging over a smaller number), and a slow one (averaging over a larger number), you can plot these on a chart and find where they cross over. This is known as a moving averages crossover system. Once you’ve identified what you think is a trend, you then need to confirm it by looking at other factors in the market. The best way to avoid false trends and blips is to use at leas two different indicators. Always decide how much you are willing to lose on a particular trade, so you can set up a stop-loss offer. Finally, you need to decide what price to open your trade, and what price to close it for maximum profits. Remember, whatever your decision, you need to stick to it. By developing your system in a demo account, you don’t have to worry about losing any capital, because you haven’t invested any yet. When you think you’ve got your system, write it down. Write down the stop-loss amount (e.g. if the price drops by 30 pips) and the price to close your trade at (e.g. if the price rises by 50 pips). Test and demo trade when your system for at least 7-8 weeks before trading for real.
