well, technically buying the #USD means selling the EURUSD ..which i meant long term.
about today, anything >200k is still bearish for EURUSD

#EURUSD , if the feds intends to increase rate soon, its only logical to join the band wagon with the buy and hold the USD, the New high created on the EURUSD could be a significant high for the next few months or years as usual just my guess.

Going through forexfactory and found two striking explorers...

http://www.forexfactory.com/dforexangel - This one is some badass EA. Imagine making 3,000 pips in less than 6 days with 98% accuracy!


http://www.forexfactory.com/bidemi12 - This one is a sad one.. It is owned by an old timer here that came back recently to tear up the house a bit before disappearing.

Go through them and think. What you learn from them is up to you .

Good question. One constant recurring criteria in binary trading is that you make money only if price meets a certain point in X amount of time. Also, the way the brokers volume/lots for trades are structured, it is impossible to utilize compounding. In forex, you choose your volume/lots per trade which is perfect for compounding. That alone should tell you that forex is way better than binary options. You see, making money in the markets is about your knowledge in the application of probability, math, and odds. If i give you a strategy that has a 5 percent win ratio and part of the rules is that you must religiously place your stop loss at 10 pips but your wins would generate 250 pips, you are well on your way to being a millionaire. But here's the thing; you will still manage to screw it up. Why? with the scenario i just gave, what will be your downfall is time and frustration. A 5 percent win ratio means you would have to take 95 trades and each time would be a loss and you would only win five times. you would never know when those five win trades would come up. It could be days, or weeks. Eventually you would change parameters because of frustration. This simple concept is what most traders don't seem to understand or want to understand. As traders we have an EGO problem. Almost everyone (including me) has a nostradamus complex. We all want to be the first person to crack forex. Which is why people flock to Binary option. Binary option is basically telling the trader to predict where price is going and that my friend is impossible. The overall movement of price is not news based, it's trader/people driven. Can you honestly tell me you know what your fellow man is thinking? if you can know that, then yes you can determine the direction of price. But that will never happen. Anyone who tells you they know what price would do the next minute has ulterior motives. Which is also why binary option should be avoided.

As we go into the weekend, here's a psychological trick i need you to ponder and be aware of. As forex traders, amongst many other things we need to master, about the most important psychologically is frustration and an obsessive need not to lose money on any trade. Due to the randomness off the way price moves, it is inevitable that things will never go your way all the time. But here's the trick; when it does go your way, it really goes. So, you need to be aware that an account balance of lets say, 3k will bounce around that figure for many trades. You'll be up 400 dollars, then back again to 3500, then maybe even 2k. This goes on and on for lengthy periods of time. days, weeks, or even months, depending on your system. It is imperative you stick to your system and make sure you limit your losses every time you place a trade and it turns against you. When the right set of trades does come along, you'll be surprised how that 3k will jump to 6k in a blink of an eye. Then the cycle will continue again with the new balance. It is mentally challenging. It is not easy. You must learn to take emotion out of the equation. Never trade when you are tired, angry, happy, sad, sick etc. Always trade with a clear head. Once you feel any kind of emotion, just walk away. This business is easy but hard if you don't know what you are doing.

Guy. My best advise for you is to forget about understanding charts and price movements for now. Learn all you can about money management, position sizing, compounding etc before you do anything else. In short learn all you can about how to control your capital and your account. This is more important that learning to read charts. A lot of us learnt trading asss backwards by focusing on charts and got hurt badly because of it. Price movement is the least important aspect of trading because you can never fully understand it and therefore cannot control it. But, what you can control is your capital and your account.

P.s you can start with as low as 200 dollars. If you can manage that then you can manage a million dollars. Youtube is your friend.
