Protect Your Self

Protect Your Self



Before we go any further we are going to be 100% honest with you and tell you the following before you consider trading currencies:

All forex traders, and we mean a traders LOSE money on trades.
Ninety percent of traders lose money, largely due to lack of planning and training and having poor money management rules.

Trading forex is not for the unemployed, those on low incomes, or who can’t afford to pay their electricity bill or afford to eat.
You should have at least $10,000 of trading capital (in a mini account) that you can afford to lose. Don’t expect to start an account with a few hundred dollars and expect to become a kazillionaire .

Forex Terminology

Forex Terminology



Every trader in the Foreign Exchange ‘FOREX’ hopes to make a profit from something called ‘PIP’.
It may sound silly, but gains in pips can potentially make you over wealthy .
Take your time with this information, as it is required knowledge for all Forex traders.
Don’t even think about trading until you are comfortable with pip values and calculating profit and loss.




What is a pip ?
Pips stands for ‘PERCENTAGE IN PIONTS’. In the Forex trading, a ‘PIP’ is a unit of measurement which represents the smallest change in the price of currency or a currency pair. In the stock markets this is a classified as a ‘POINT’.
As a result, some folks refer to pips as points.
Pips are the last decimal point in an exchange rate or currency pair.
For the majority of currencies a ‘PIP’ is equal to 0.0001.
This means that if you purchased USD/CHF at 1.2310 and sold at 1.2330, you made 20 pips


USD/JPY:
110.78 .01 divided by exchange rate = pip value

USD/CHF:
1.1227 .0001 divided by exchange rate = pip value

GBP/USD:
1.9799 .0001 divided by exchange rate = pip value

Order Types

Order Types




The term “order” refers to how you will enter or exit a trade.

Here we discuss the different types of orders that can be placed into the foreign exchange market .


Basic Order Types :
Market order :

A market order is an order to buy or sell at the current market price.

For example, EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.2140. If you wanted to buy at this exact price, you would click buy and your trading platform would instantly execute a buy order at that exact price. If you ever shop on Amazon.com, it’s (kinda) like using their

1-Click ordering .
Limit order :A limit order is an order placed to buy or sell at a certain price.

The order essentially contains two variables, price and duration.

For example, EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.2050.

You want to go long if the price reaches 1.2070.

You can either sit in front of your monitor and wait for it to hit 1.2070 (at which point you would click a buy market order), or you can set a buy limit order at 1.2070 (then you could walk away from your computer to attend your ballroom dancing class).


Stop-loss order :A stop-loss order is a limit order linked to an open trade for the purpose of preventing additional losses if price goes against you.

A stop-loss order remains in effect until the position is liquidated or you cancel the stop-loss order.

For example, you went long (buy) EUR/USD at 1.2230. To limit your maximum loss, you set a stop-loss order at 1.2200 .
