FOREX TRADING Forex Trading is basically buying and selling currencies. There is a lot of money to be made here however a lot is lost at the same time. There are plenty of demo accounts out there so look into one of them before you take on the live market. I (someone who had no prior exp with trading) used a trial account for 1 week. The account started with $50,000 four days later i increased the balance to $90,000 on the same account i started making more risks spending more money on investments at a time. Overnight i lost it all so let this be an example, the gains to be made are undeniably great however the risks are just as high. PROS -The Forex market can be affected by economic situations, watch the news the see upcoming events to help predict changes and you can make better positions. -A lot of online platforms have 'stop loss' tools to help minimize any loses. -It is easy to set up and runs 24 hours a day, however the market generally fluctuates a lot slower when the banks are not working (some holidays and weekends) CONS -Unforeseen tragedies can affect the market negatively. -It is your own responsibility to ensure your computer and connection are in working order, you do not want to disconnect at the wrong time. -Some traders become to greedy and a slight market move can wipe out all your money. TIPS -Make sure you do YOUR own research. -Do not get emotional, make sure every decision you make is smart and well thought. -Use a demo Forex account for weeks/months till you are confident, treat it like real money so you can get used to the emotional attachment. -Make time to learn and fully understand the minor details such as roll over. -Only use a small fraction of your total account balance to buy positions, you do not want to do what i did.
