Focused Approach to Forex
            Trading




By www.theforexnittygritty.com
Sometimes sticking to one
approach in foreign currency
   trading is better than
        engaging in


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
too many strategies, trading
too many currency pairs, or,
 for that matter, making too
        many trades.


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
A focused approach to Forex
 trading ought to stick with
      what works, limit



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
experimentation to well-
developed strategies, and
include routine audits of
     trading results.


http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
We have written about
   strategic Forex trading,
 conservative Forex trading,
aggressive Forex trading, and
   technical Forex trading.

  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Although a focused approach
 to trading currencies could
include any of the above, the
goal of a focused approach to
   Forex trading should be
   profitable Forex trading.

  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Forex Trading Is a Business




 http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Despite the hype that new
   traders often see on the
internet, trading currencies is
          a business.


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
The reason for Forex markets
 is to facilitate international
              trade.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Those purchasing foreign
products commonly need to
exchange currencies to make
         payment.


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
They commonly engage in
hedging strategies to reduce
      currency risks.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Speculators seek volatile
markets in search of profits.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
In each case, a focused
 approach to Forex trading is
more likely to result in success
 than a haphazard approach.


   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
There was a scene in the old
 MASH television series in
which the Harvard educated



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
surgeon states that he does
 one thing at a time, does it
very well, and then moves on
           the next.


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Although the example comes
 from fiction, the lesson is a
          good one.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Many traders use a Forex alert
    service to help spot
 potentially lucrative trades.



   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
A trader can select a trade
suggested by an alert service,
 apply his own fundamental



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
and technical analysis, trade
to a profit, and then wait for
       the next trade.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
This is a focused approach to
Forex trading and goes along
with the example from the TV
             show.


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Having reliable process to
follow, following it, and fixing
    it when necessary is a
       profitable way of


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
going about trading currencies
  whether your approach is
 technical of if you engage in
  fundamental based Forex
           trading.

   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Practice Makes Perfect




http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
A tourist is lost on his way to
Carnegie Hall in New York City.



   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
He happens upon a man
    selling pencils.



http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
He asks how to get to
Carnegie Hall and the man
replies, practice, practice.



 http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
A focused approach to Forex
    trading always includes
reviewing your trading results.



   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
First, traders should do results
  audits. That is simple. How
 many trades did you make?



   http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
How many were winners and
how many were losers? What
 proportion of your gains or
  losses included fees and
       commissions?

  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
What was your return on time
 spent in dollars per hour?



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
If you want to improve on
these numbers you will do a
        process audit.



  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
You will pick both your worst
  and your best results and
 analyze why you lost when
 you lost and why you won
       when you won.

  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
A focused approach to Forex
 trading must include time
spend in researching trades
        and market


  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
sentiment and it must include
an honest review of how you
    have done in order to
 continue doing what works
 and change what does not.

  http://www.theforexnittygritty.com/forex/focused-approach-to-forex-trading
Forex trading is a business and
  should be treated as such.
