The Dangers Of FOREX Trading They Never Told You About by TamaraAbells: 8:39pm On Dec 11, 2015 |
Most times, when people talk about Forex trading, they only tell you how you'll become a millionaire in one night, they never tell you that you could also become the poorest man on the planet if you are not careful. I'm not trying to frighten or scare you away, i just believe everyone you know the dangers in the trade called FOREX. How Does FOREX Works? Before you put your money on the line, you should find out how forex markets and trading works, do extensive research and consider getting professional. FOREX trading involves you buying a world currency, hold it for a period of time, and hope that it will rise in value. If that happens, you sell it. As easy as that sounds, it can be much more risky than trading with the conventional stock market. [size=15pt]Things They Will Never Tell You About Forex Trading[/size] You Need to Work Really Hard One of the things they will not tell you about FOREX is that you have to know almost everything. Forex trading is complex and risky. Currency markets are extremely difficult to predict because so many factors affect exchange rates. Even the most skilled and experienced forex traders have difficulty predicting movements in currencies. Trading in international currencies requires a huge amount of knowledge, research and monitoring. Leveraging Can Wreck You Leverage involves borrowing a certain amount of the money needed to invest in something. leverage has the potential to enlarge your profits or losses by the same magnitude. The greater the amount of leverage on capital you apply, the higher the risk that you will assume. A highly leveraged trade can quickly deplete your trading account if it goes against you, as you will rack up greater losses due to bigger lot sizes. The Brokerages Dont' Really Care You will have to pay fees for any profits that you incur, as well as trading fees and commissions. The brokerages make money even when you lose money, so its not their problem when you loose, they really don't care about your well being, either way, its win-win for them. Exchange Rates are Never Stable There are significant investment risks as currency fluctuations may move against you, causing you to lose money. Exchange rates are very volatile - they tend to move around a lot even within very short periods of time. You're on Your Own Forex trading raises the stakes further by letting you trade with borrowed money (leverage), but you'll be responsible for all losses, which may exceed your initial investment. Margin forex trading is one of the riskiest investments you can make. You'll Have to Study the World To successfully trade in forex, you will need to have good knowledge of foreign exchange, leverage, volatility and the conditions of each country whose currency you are trading. You will also need to predict how these conditions affect the relative value of those currencies. This is extremely difficult as so many factors come into play, including politics, economics and market confidence, and these are unexpected, random events.

Good post for newbies- I did Forex trading for years even traded pro PAMM accounts for a very popular brokerage firm until i discovered they were "helping themselves" to my money and denied it. Haven't traded since. I do more reliable online business now. 1 Like |

Nice writeup However, let me tell you that most (though not all) of the information you need is already summarized on the chart and that is why Price Action rules the game. I tell you, I have some young millionaire friends in the Forex business who wiill NEVER take even an oil company job. Forex is a business and must be taking as a business. It is not a get rich quick scheme and with proper education coupled with money management together with greed control, you will surely make more money in Forex business than u think. FOREX is real and legitimate business but not for lazy ones. I'm proud to be a Forex trader |

Smartlife: I'm not saying the business does't pay, just saying that some people make it seem like you'll become a millionaire overnight, they make it seem like its win-win all the way and that there is no loss 1 Like |

TamaraAbells: Too many newbies start FX looking at the rosy aspects of it as if you can start making money just like that. That's not true you need to learn and practice. investing in an Forex ed and even mentoring can help drastically improve your learning curve But the problem is Forex is not an exact science Before you can be consistently profitable you will loose money fact. How much you loose depends on your training. I was able to double my account within 15 days consistently it didn't happen always and it took while before I reached that point. I mentioned that I grew money trading professional PAMM accounts. Nobody can tell me that you cannot make money from Forex. but to think that you can be consistently profitable when you start is a lunacy 1 Like |

For newbies who are genuinely serious about making money in Forex but may not have money for expensive courses here is something This is a free site I used. You can use this free site to learn how to trade before you have money to invest in Forex education. But here is the key. Dont even think about trading till you have completed this course and understood it or all you will do is give your money to the market and the brokerage firm as an early christmas present and end up being part of the 95% who never make money doing FX. This course is as robust as you can get anywhere on the net without paying money Here is the link: BBpips.com - School of Forex Trading Sincerely Ben Ajose 2 Likes |

Regardless of your experience level, a course will help you to master both technical analysis and fundamental analysis. It will also help you to choose the most suitable currency pairs to trade. You may also find your ideal details about forex traders on dumblittleman.com. |
