Alasan Kenapa Harus menjadi trader forex
Pertukaran mata uang asing pasar investor saat ini menawarkan banyak keuntungan. Maka banyak trader forex bertebaran dimana mana di seluruh belahan bumi ini. Bukan tanpa alasan, mereka dan termasuk saya juga (nanti barangkali Anda) tentu telah memiliki minimal 4 alasan mengapa kita ingin menjadi pedagang mata uang dunia.
1. Pasar Mata Uang Yang buka 24 jam
Banyak pasar perdagangan di seluruh dunia yang terletak di lokasi dan tetap beroperasi dalam jam perdagangan yang ketat, sering terbatas hanya lima atau enam jam sehari di antara Senin dan Jumat.. Namun pasar Forex buka 24 jam sehari; hanya hari Sabtu dan Minggu market tutup.
Ini berarti bahwa pedagang tidak hanya mengambil keuntungan dari peristiwa internasional, tetapi mereka juga memiliki kemampuan mengatur jam trading mereka sendiri. Jika Anda lebih suka bekerja di pagi hari karena memiliki pekerjaan tertentu, tidak menjadi soal, Anda bisa trade forex pada malam harinya. Atau sebaliknya. Anda dapat trade forex pada siang hari ketika Anda telah memiliki kesibukan pekerjaan dimalam hari. Intinya, Anda dapat memilih untuk perdagangan siang, larut malam atau bahkan di tengah malam jika Anda mau.
2. Trading Biaya rendah
Di banyak pasar, seperti pasar saham, para pedagang tidak hanya perlu membayar spread (perbedaan harga antara membeli dan menjual saham), tetapi juga harus membayar komisi kepada broker Pada perdagangan kecil komisi ini biasanya dapat menjadi sekitar $ 20 dan ini dapat meningkat pesat menjadi lebih dari $ 100 untuk perdagangan yang lebih besar.
Karena pasar penukaran mata uang asing adalah suatu pasar elektronik sepenuhnya, banyak biaya perdagangan tradisional dihilangkan dan Anda dapat memaksimalkan perdagangan Anda dengan modal Anda. Modal barangkali menyesuaikan keadaan ekonomi Anda. Tetapi para broker telah menyiapkan micro account dan standar account. Dimana untuk account micro untuk Anda yang dalam kemampuan relatif kecil untuk menanamkan modalnya pada account forex (misalnya dibawah 100$). Sedangkan account standar yang lebih dari itu atau menggunakan dana yang cukup besar. Selain itu, sifat yang sangat liquid (cair) dari pasar pertukaran mata uang global. Begitu dapat profit, dengan mudah langsung dapat di cairkan dan ditransfer ke rekening milik kita (BANK LOCAL).
3. Kemampuan Untuk Perdagangan On High Leverage
Dalam sebagian besar pasar di mana seorang pedagang memiliki kesempatan untuk berdagang di leverage yang ditawarkan seringkali sangat rendah. Dalam kasus pasar modal, misalnya, ekuitas day trader profesional biasanya akan beroperasi pada leverage sekitar sepuluh kali modal mereka. Dalam pasar Forex Sebaliknya itu cukup umum menemukan bahwa pedagang yang diijinkan untuk perdagangan seratus dua ratus kali untuk modal mereka.
Sebuah Kelemahan dari leverage tinggi adalah bahwa hal itu tentu saja dapat mengakibatkan kerugian yang tinggi serta keuntungan yang tinggi. Namun, dalam pasar mata uang asing, manajemen risiko sangat ketat dikontrol.
4. Dua Kesempatan Untuk Profit
P erdagangan mata uang dunia selalu melibatkan dua mata uang, sehingga jika Anda kecewa pada satu mata uang maka Anda naik di sisi lain. Karena itu selalu ada potensi untuk menghasilkan keuntungan apakah pasar naik atau turun.
Kita bisa mendapatkan keuntungan dalam bertrading; apakah pasar itu naik atau sedang turun. Cara nya yaitu dengan menganalisa pasangan mata uang mana yang akan naek atau turun, dan mengambil selisih nya dari perdagangan.
Apabila anda yakin mata uang tersebut akan menguat (naik) segera lakukan posisi buy, kemudian tunggu harga naik,lakukan closed (sell) saat mata uang tersebut melebihi harga beli Anda tadi.
Apabila anda yakin mata uang tersebut akan melemah (turun) lakukan posisi sell, tunggu harga turun,lakukan closed (buy) saat mata uang tersebut dibawah harga jual Anda tadi.
Seperti contoh nya begini:
Pembukaan Euro 1.1750 / 1.1753 , anda menganalisa bahwa euro akan nak menjadi posisi 1.1770/1.1767, maka bukalah posisi buy saat harga tersebut (maka anda membeli pada posisi 1.1753), dan saat posisi berubah menjadi 1.1770/1.1773 , lakukan closed posisi / menjual mata uang tersebut (pada posisi 1.1770)
Maka Anda bisa profit dalam dua kesempatan. Okey?
Happy Trading!

It has been attributed by a couple individuals and corporate entities with being the greatest invention of this century, lauded and equally hated by parties at opposing ends as a killer of printed publications, it has been the singular and maximally powerful linkage across geographical boundaries, between total-strangers-now-become-friends...,it is the internet and it has come to stay.

How Important Is It To Be Familiar With Forex Trading Hours As A Currency Trader?
The Forex market is operational twenty-four hours a day. The four markets: New York, Sydney, London and Tokyo each have specific hours of operation. Since using these hours of operation is key to making money on the foreign exchange, it is vital that you know what the Forex trading hours of each market are.
It is important to note that these listed periods are only in relation to the United States Eastern time zone. The New York market opens at 8am, and closes at 5pm. Tokyo opens at 7pm, and closes at 4am. Sydney runs from 5pm to 2am, and London, from 3am to 12pm.
Since there is little money to be made during the slow period of each of these markets, it is vital to learn when they will be active. For each, the morning hours are a good time, as are the evening. These are periods just before people leave to go to work, and the time just after they arrive home for the night.
One of the best ways to take advantage of active trading is to use the market during hours in which some markets overlap. For many, this is the only time to do business.
These overlaps include the periods where London and New York overlap between 8am and 12pm. Sydney and Tokyo overlaps between 7pm and 2am. London and Tokyo overlap as well. This occurs between 3am and 4am. Again, all of these listed periods are based on United States Eastern time. If you are not on the East coast, you will need to adjust these periods accordingly.
During the overlaps, trading it at it's peak for the day. Though some of these times may occur while you are normally in bed, it may be advantageous to adjust your sleep schedule if possible to accommodate trading during the peak periods.
If not, at least try to trade during the hours when people are at home, and thus increasing the overall trade volume. The value of a commodity will not move much if there is no one online trading it, and these periods are for the most part a waste of your time.
Those new to Forex should take the time to memorize the Forex trading hours before making their first trade. The ultimate goal is to make money, and this can best be done when working the market during the peak Forex trading times.
What would a very effective forex trading tactic bring to your fx trading business instantly? Every type of forex trading strategy that is introduced must be scrutinized really well.
Forex Strategy Trading Tips: The Forex Trading Every Trader Should Use
As I was planning to trade the markets today, I used my traditional pre-trading routine. I follow definitely the same routine on a regular basis and it makes it possible for me to become more prepared and effective as a trader and as a businessman.
As part of my Forex strategy trading strategies I would like to share with you a checklist that every FX trader should use in order to be more productive, more organized, and maximize your return on investment.
Check your open trades and track their efficiency: This should be the first step you take once you get to your computer. Check all of your open positions and track their performance.
In quite a few occasions stop losses need to be moved to break even or you want to take profit early because of an incoming event (such as non- farm payroll). One of my mentors once told me that "everything that matters should be assessed", this undoubtedly applies to spot trading.
Research the market before you place any new trades: I cannot accentuate enough that you need to analyze the market before you open any trades. When you are in a trade you are not the same. You are thinking about the trade all the time and you are more likely to make non-sense decisions.
At the same time, you will be hitting your head if you see a problem in the market that creates a conflict with a trade you already took.
Read the news or read a news calendar: I am most of a technical Fx trader than a fundamental currency trader; nevertheless, I still try to stay up to date in what is going on globally.
One of the tools that I employ to analyze the fundamentals of the FX Market is the news calendar. A news calendar provides you with a collection of all the important events that are happening in the international economy. A lot of them also tell you the expected influence that each specific news event will have on the Forex market.
Check your risk, stop loss, and tale profit variables: minor things can make a large difference in Forex trading and little mistakes can result on large losses. This is the reason why I always check my risk, take profit levels, and stop loss levels. That's the best way for me to guarantee that that everything is working fine and that I am going to meet my trading desires.
Never let a small mistake become a large loss: I made a choice to include this one as part of the Forex trading checklist because I have seen several traders lose money this way. We are all human and we will commit mistakes from time to time.

Riding the Rapids With a Foreign Exchange Trader
Since its beginnings in the 1970s, not too many people would have believed then that the foreign currency exchange market would have such an impact on the world.

This market is extremely circulatory, with as much as three trillion dollars exchanging hands on a daily basis. Statistics show no slowing down, either.
The foreign exchange market is more over-the-counter than, say, stocks or bonds; however, both are based on the exchange of money. It only happens more so in the Forex trading arena. It is important to make note that both the stock exchange and the Forex marketplace reinforce each other in the face of worldly business transactions.

Of course, the analysis will be done by a professional that is well versed in price patterns, as well as the political and economical stability of other countries. This helps determine the value of the currency in that particular country.
A foreign exchange trader will be advised not to rely solely on what he or she is told by these professionals, however. It is good to keep these analyses in mind; but, it is also important to formulate one's own strategy when it comes to how one will make his or her transactions. There will be times when, if you decide to become a foreign exchange trader, that you will have to make decisions on a very spur-of-the-moment juncture.

One of the greatest parts of being a foreign exchange trader is that business is open twenty four hours per day, seven days per week. You can set your own schedule; you can even purchase software to help you out on the days that you don't wish to have to be in front of your computer. This twenty four/seven approach to business ensures that money is constantly being circulated around the world.
This is the only business where you can make as much money, that is not governed by any type of controls, such as the SEC when it comes to the stock exchange. This encourages more trades, which means more circulation and more money in your pocket if you play your hand right and stick to your plan.
Having a solid foundation for forex strategy is the key to success. You can only succeed in a risky market like currencies with the proper professional forex strategy assistance. Look no further! click any of the links to review the secret to successful forex trading.
