Get Rich, Maintain Sanity - The Forex Market

By John Eather

There are few things as nail biting as dealing in the foreign exchange market. You can make a great deal of money very quickly, and you can lose a great deal even faster. If you are of a nervous disposition, then it is not the place for you. Even those with nerves made of steel can end up gibbering wrecks by trading in FOREX, however here are a few guidelines that should help you to get rich and retain your sanity.

To become a trader in the foreign exchange market, your first goal is to determine what you are willing to risk and what type of return you want on your investments. How much money do you want to make and how much time are you willing to wait for it? Is the risk worth the outcome? After you find the balance you are comfortable with, stay there and do not budge.

Remaining calm and collected makes for a good trader. Do not let your emotions influence your decisions. It is absolutely necessary to remember this. Do not forget that what you are doing is using logical and sound analysis to make a profit. You can compare forex trading with that of card playing by always knowing what you are risking, what you can gain and what the odds are that you will win and never let them see you sweat.

Donat beat yourself up if you don't always get it right. Nobody involved in the foreign exchange market gets it right all the time. On many occasions you will make the wrong call; that is the nature of the beast. Just follow the guidelines set out in the second paragraph and you will keep your hair.

First and foremost, decide how you want to accomplish your goals. Do not make the mistake of starting without some sort of plan in place. Even if this is not the right plan for you, it is a starting point and you must have a starting place.

What kind of plan do you need? First, start with where you will get your information. Next, decide who you can trust and who you cannot when it comes to finding the information you desire. You will need help to make these decisions. Find someone you can trust and learn from. Remember these initial goals.

There are two different directions you can attempt to go. There are a lot of differing opinions as to which way is the right way. Some people use an internal gauge (a gut feeling), however, those always remember to base these feelings on what is actually happening in the market, using analysis, trends and mathematical approaches to help in their decision making. The other way leans on using statistics. You need to figure out which approach will work best for you.

So, to summarize; you need to establish your basic goals and constraints, assemble your initial plan, decide on your approach, and go for it. By adopting these basic rules you will maximize your chances of making some real cash without compromising your sanity. Of course, you should also have some good fun in the process. - 23208
