Have you ever wanted to learn to day trade forex? For several months I was drawn to the forex markets to try and make some money. I believe I have now found the right way to make money from the forex markets. In this article I will explain how I make my money from trading forex and hopefully how you can do the same.
Why did I want to get into trading Forex?
Well for a start the big advantage with Forex is that it is the biggest and most liquid market in the world. As a result it is incredibly cheap to trade and you do not pay commissions to buy or sell as you do in the equity stock markets. The key benefit for me however is that Forex markets do not suffer downward trends like stock markets do. Buying stocks in the current climate is like trying to pick out ripe apples from a rotten fruit bowl. In the world of Forex when one currency rises in prices, it always means another falls relative to it. This means there is no general market trend. This means that during a recession investing in Forex can be just as profitable, unlike stock trading.
The secret to my success
Here comes the part of the article that could change your investing behavior too. I stumbled across an article that mentioned the advantages of using an automated trading system to help you select your trades. The key benefits of this kind of trading are that you benefit from the huge computational power that computers have. The software is preprogrammed with a trading strategy that take advantage of price trends and aims to make very small profits from these situations. These soon add up and the result is that this system provides me with a nice little second income which enable me to have more financial freedom than i have ever been used to.
