My Forex Experience

Several months ago I wrote up a post on Forex-Nation promising more lessons and more info from my own forex experience to help those of you seeking to refine your own forex trading skills. Well I guess you could say I sort of didn’t quite follow through with that promise. But I would like to give an explanation for why the long silence, and no it’s not because I went broke and gave up trading.

It’s actually been one hell of a year for me both personally and financially. Thanks to the misguided hot air balloon that was the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act my trading capitol proved to be insufficient to continue trading full-time. And as I sought out

February Update - New Year Brings New Money

What A Long Month of Trading

Well as I reported in the first week of December, the EUR/USD has been consolidating within the middle of 1.3000 to 1.4000 ranges. This means it’s not a big surprize to those that watch the fundamental data and apply it to the MT4/technical data. You need to keep big picture analysis in your everyday technical analysis. It serves as a compass towards trading decisions.

Sorry for the Delay

Just wanted to post something for those who are visiting the site looking for new content and let you know I’m not procrastinating writing new lessons as promised. I’ve got a list of lessons I’m preparing, but I also bit off more than I could chew so to speak with my other “job”. I design websites on the side and recently took on a major E-Commerce website design that’s created a whole new set of problems for me to spend time on. Until I get a good grip on this project, I’m putting my trading and this website’s content on hold. Not to say you can’t still check out all the 2010 content and gain some great insight into how

My Advice for Trading in December? Don’t Do It!

The first couple of weeks in December can still be navigated using the same strategy and indicators that got you through the previous 11 months of the year, but the same cannot be said for the last 2 weeks. These are extremely thin times where the big bankers and investment funds have clocked out till the New Year and small orders that would usually be easily absorbed into the market causing no visible change can actually move the market in very big ways when liquidity is lacking. That’s great when it’s in your favor, but dreadful when it’s not. My advice is to stay away. Enjoy your life outside of forex and just don’t bother thinking about the market until

Overbought/Oversold: Using RSI, Stochastic, and Moving Average Envelopes

Before we begin to look at what are the best indicators for determining overbought/oversold conditions and how to use them, let’s first define what overbought/oversold means.

Overbought/Oversold Defined

I define an overbought condition as a situation in which the price level of a currency pair has risen to such an extent that it is overvalued and therefore the likelihood of a pullback is very high. The opposite is true in oversold conditions where price action has fallen to such a level as to justify new buying opportunities due to its’ current undervalued state. In simpler terms, we are dealing with an extreme level in price action that as a result we should therefore see a corrective move take place.
What’s going on in the markets
